Jetix
Jetix was a worldwide children's television network owned by The Walt Disney Company. It was aimed at children and teenagers, featuring a mix of animated and live-action programming. The channel was known for broadcasting popular shows such as Power Rangers, Digimon, and Yu-Gi-Oh!.
History[edit | edit source]
Jetix was launched in 2004 as a rebranding of the Fox Kids network, which had been acquired by The Walt Disney Company in 2001. The rebranding was part of Disney's strategy to create a unified global brand for its children's television channels. Jetix operated in various regions, including North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
In 2009, Jetix was gradually replaced by Disney XD, a new channel aimed at a similar demographic but with a stronger focus on action and adventure programming. The transition was completed by the end of 2009, and Jetix ceased to exist as a separate brand.
Programming[edit | edit source]
Jetix's programming lineup included a mix of animated and live-action series. Some of the most popular shows on Jetix included:
- Power Rangers
- Digimon
- Yu-Gi-Oh!
- Spider-Man: The Animated Series

The channel also aired various anime series, which contributed to its popularity among fans of the genre.
Regional Variations[edit | edit source]
Jetix operated in multiple regions, each with its own localized programming and schedule. Some of the notable regional variations included:
- Jetix Europe: Available in various European countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Italy.
- Jetix Latin America: Broadcast in countries such as Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina.

Legacy[edit | edit source]
Although Jetix no longer exists as a separate brand, its impact on children's television remains significant. Many of the shows that aired on Jetix continue to have a dedicated fan base and are available on various streaming platforms. The transition to Disney XD allowed Disney to continue catering to the same audience while introducing new content and expanding its reach.
