When they purchased Fox Family Worldwide in 2001, they completely ignored most of the Fox Kids/Saban library. We get that they bought Fox Kids because Fox Family Channel had a major 35% audience decline (just thank Three Friends and Jerry, Angela Anaconda, and The Ripping Friends for ruining it). But while Jetix was a great successor and many of its shows were great, it still didn't change how terrible of a move it was for Disney to ignore most of Fox Kids' shows (at least in the United States). Only a few Fox Kids shows are legally available in the USA: most of Marvel's TV shows, the TV movies Richie Rich's Christmas Wish and Three Days (all of which are on Disney+), Power Rangers and all its spinoff series, such as Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation (now owned by Entertainment One, formerly Saban), Digimon (now owned by Toei), Pigs Next Door (which is co-owned with Studio 100), Bobby's World (which was sold back to the show's creator, Howie Mandel), Samurai Pizza Cats (Saban's license expired in 2000 and the show is currently distributed by Digital Media Rights), Goosebumps (which is owned by Scholastic), and DiC Entertainment (which is now known as WildBrain).
