“Pillow head,” also known as “bed head,” is that punk-rock hairdo we tend to sport inadvertently when we wake up in the morning. Now Kids’ WB! is basing a whole hour of animated programming on the phenomenon with the launch of Pillow Head Hour on Saturday, June 4, at 8 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT. The block will kick off with a solid hour of Jackie Chan Adventures, which returns to Saturday mornings with new episodes.
Kids’ WB! wants kids to be proud of their pillow heads, even giving them a chance to flaunt them on TV. The network plans to pay surprise visits to unsuspecting kids, letting them host part of the hour from their bedrooms with their favorite pillow head-sporting Kids’ WB! characters.
Other June programming highlights on Kids’ WB! include all-new episodes of Pokémon Advanced Challenge (10 a.m. ET) and The Batman (10:30 a.m. ET) every Saturday morning. The Batman will also expand to weekdays for a special two-week run from Monday, June 6, through Friday, June 17, in the 4:30 p.m. time period.
It was reported yesterday that Kids’ WB! favorites MegaMan NT Warrior: Axess, Pokémon Advanced Challenge, Xiaolin Showdown and Yu-Gi-Oh! Waking the Dragons will disappear from the weekday lineup as The WB ditches its afternoon toon block in favor of syndicated sitcoms.
