The story (if you care): I had just moved into a new place in a new town, in December 1998. I got the TV hooked up, and discovered I could pick up the WB channel, for the first time! I'd certainly heard about the channel, prior to this, but you can imagine my surprise to find new episodes of "Batman: The Animated Series" (which I loved to watch a few years prior on Fox Kids, back in High School). I got Kids WB just in time to watch the premiere of Batman Beyond in January, 1999, and also just in time to catch the premiere of the FINAL episode of "Batman: The Animated Series" (Mad Love). From there I went on to watch all of the "rerun" episodes of Batman and Superman, along with new episodes of Batman Beyond!

In a nutshell: This was the start of me discovering and recording Kids WB!
