4Kids TV(TM) Celebrates Sixth Season on FOX with Action-Packed Fall Line-up
Get your game face on! 4Kids TV is rolling out an all new look and an
all new attitude when it unveils "The Game
Station” on Saturday, September 8th.
This is the sixth year that 4Kids Entertainment is programming the
4-hour Saturday morning kids block on Fox, and to celebrate, it’s
unleashing the most action-packed slate of original shows to date. 4Kids
will add three new series to its lineup of popular returning shows,
which includes Chaotic, Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles: Fast Forward, Viva Piñata, Sonic X and
Winx Club.
"Kids don’t just
watch TV anymore—they want to get involved,
interact – experience the characters, the
stories and the action for themselves,” said
Alfred R. Kahn, Chairman and CEO of 4Kids Entertainment. "‘The
Game Station’ is the perfect moniker to
reflect that our shows are all about having fun and getting into the
game -- either on-air, on-line, or in a multitude of ways that we’ll
make available to our fans throughout the year.”
To support the new season, 4Kids has launched The Game Station
Sweepstakes. 4Kids teamed up with Six Flags Theme Parks and K·B
Toys on this major multi-level promotion. Kids received sweepstakes
brochures and limited edition collectible card packs –
all driving viewers to tune-in to 4Kids TV throughout the month of
September to join in to The Game Station Sweepstakes. One Grand Prize
Winner will be awarded four Video Game Systems, along with a $4,000 cash
prize. One First Prize Winner will receive a set of four season passes
redeemable at participating Six Flags Theme Parks. Twenty five Second
Prize Winners will receive one $50 K·B Toys
Gift Card.
There are three newcomers to the 4Kids TV line-up this fall. From
dinosaurs to boot-camp style competition to dynamic duels, this season’s
most-buzzed-about debuts are:
Dinosaur King (premieres September 8, 10:30am):
Dinosaurs are back -- and they’re bigger,
badder and better than ever! Best friends Max, Rex and Zoe discover an
amazing secret -- they can bring dinosaurs to life and control them
with ancient stone fragments and mysterious cards. An evil
organization called "Alpha Gang,”
led by Dr. Z, traveled back in time and accidentally scattered the
Dinosaur Cards around the world here in the present. Now it’s
up to the kids of The D-Team to race across the planet, control the
dinosaurs and save the 21st Century!
The Adrenaline Project (debuts September 29, 8:00am):
This action-packed reality series drops five thrill-seeking teens at
Base Camp each week to train for a chance to experience the ultimate
rush. They’ll compete head-to-head for
victory in the unknown final event where they may be asked to do
anything from zipline, scuba dive, white water kayak or even bungee
jump. The series is designed to motivate and inspire teen viewers to
learn the importance of well-being with its emphasis on physical
fitness, teamwork, and friendly competition.
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (premieres September 8, 8:30am): The hit

its most popular shows, including:

the adventures of a group of teens who are fans of the Chaotic trading

battle locations, battle gear and "Mugic.”
The teens travel to Perim, the land of the Creature tribes, to capture
