I'm not worried about the X-Men going woke, I'm worried about a flat tire on a car that's driving well. These are not the same thing. The X-Men were about social justice from the very beginning. Anything done insincerely will stand out. Facing a harsh reality is not the same as throwing politically correct and unreliable, fake messages everywhere. This is what X-Men '97 did and the MCU didn't. Face the fact that not everyone has to like or like the things you like. You got triggered when I dissed the MCU. What's your problem, huh?
but there's are issues other than saban like: blue sky studios, the filmation shows that 20th century fox television produced & fox animation studios

My friend, it was even a problem that Now TV in my country suddenly turned the Romantic Comedy series, which it broadcast in the summer of 2021, into a Telenovela with intense melodrama content after the 10th episode. The audience was surprised at what happened. Wherever Disney is there is trouble globally. Including what you said. What was done to BluSky was also unfair, but BluSky assets were never lost media.

Even the reason why there is no second title of the Starsky & Hutch video game is Disney. I loved that game very much. Disney is a nightmare that collapses on everything I love in my life. From my point of view, this will not change.

But there is no need to discuss it from such a broad perspective, our subject is only the Saban-Fox Kids entities. Let's stay at this point.

You're right, but it doesn't seem like too many assets are lost next to a huge library. Of course, this is Disney's fault. But Disney's heaviest Lost Media presence is in the BVS library. Other than BVS, there is no other Disney subsidiary whose entire library is lost media.

and also, I think all of this was news corporation/fox fault why the bvs library went lost media, if news corporation had went ahead and bought out haim saban stake in fox family worldwide, then the bvs library wouldn't be lost media

I mean, if news corporation has to wait until they can make a bid for direct tv, like say 2004 or 2005 or 2006 and go instead bought haim saban stake in fox family worldwide, maybe bvs library wouldn't be lost media by now

Unfortunately, there is no point in saying this anymore, it has happened. At least if Warner Bros had bought it instead of Disney. It was among the first bidders. Even that would be a better option. Corporate cultures are inclusive, not exclusive. At least before Zaslav. Zaslav is a complete clown.

I actually always wondered where they'd put the masters for the BVS shows themselves

I always wondered, what if 20th century fox kept the fox children productions (because they part of the group that owned mtm & tvs libraries) when they sold fox family worldwide to disney in 2001 and disney instead bought the saban/sip animation/marvel productions/new world animation libraries & fox family channel & fox kids europe & latin america networks instead

It wouldn't have made sense for Disney to buy only a part of the library when they could buy it completely...

It would cause a split in progamming for international fox kids since now they'd have to buy the rights to air a decent chunk of the FK library. 20th Century themselves would probably release the shows on DVD.

Sadly a lot of Fox Kids shows are lost.... some shows were released on DVDs, others not, some of them only have a few episodes released, some are released fully.

I never understood why Disney did this but.... yes.

I agree with you, Disney has no excuse since they are now embracing alot the 20th Century library and alot of these shows could regain popularity that they never achieved before.

but the thing is, the fox kids shows prior to saban were 20th century fox television's so its made sense for fox to keep that library and sell the saban/sip/marvel/new world animation side of the company to disney

Best company to buy the Fox Kids library was DiC.
I agree with you. DIC would be able to reunite their pre-1990 stuff much earlier and later on when Cookie Jar buys them, a handleful of FOX Kids could air on This.

Not really sure how they'd handle the international FOX Kids channels

I am more optimistic than I was awhile ago. I'm eagerly anticipating to see Porky and Daffy's movie in theaters because seeing hand drawn animation on the big screen is a real treat. And Pepe Le Pew is no longer retired. No need to worry anymore. Looney Tunes are still core to WB, and I am excited for what is next for them in the future.
Happy National Radio Day, Uh what's left of it! The day not radio.

Why youtube nickjr have Kamp Koral video for this??
