Beyblade on cw4kids?

First off, this title is very misleading. Particularly because it implies that it'll be coming to the block. Second, this is a Japanese animated show and thus would belong in the anime forum. Third, there is some evidence that suggusts that Nelvana is co-producing the show, so it is unlikely that 4Kids themselves will pick it up.

The most likely chance of happening is 4Kids picking up the broadcast rights from Nelvana, but I'd imagine Nelvana would probably go with another company and network on this, like they have in the past. But we can only really wait and see what does occur.
 
I'd say Disney XD would be the most likely candidate, seeing as how they aired all the other series, but it's fairly clear they don't really care about it anymore. Still, if Nelvana is co-producing it, they must have some network in mind to air it.
 
Whether we think CW4Kids should pick up this show or not is irrelevant unless they actually are going to pick it up, and there's no evidence saying conclusively that they will or won't. The thread's title implies that the show will definitely be coming to 4Kids, when in actuality that's just speculation on your part, especially since none of the previous Beyblade series went to 4Kids and this new series would seem to be co-produced by Nelvana.


I honestly can't say how good a fit Beyblade would be on 4Kids, since I've never seen any of the shows.
 
That's what I thought too since I think that Disney owns something from Beyblade, like perhaps the airing rights or something like that. I'm not sure how likely that is since I haven't heard of them airing Beyblade for quite some time. I'm sure that they probably have some place in mind to air the series as well.
 
Nelvana's series are typically now on CN, which is why Bakugan Battle Brawlers is there, so no, I don't see it being on CW4Kids. I especially don't see it on CW4Kids considering their treatment of another Nelvana property- Di-Gata Defenders. I don't see it on Disney XD, despite the other series airing there, because the only reason they aired on Toon Disney/ Disney XD is because Nelvana had a contract with them to air there shows on Fox Kids. When Fox Kids decided to stop producing their own block, Disney was forced to find another place to air the Nelvana shows due to the contract not expiring for another 4 years. This is the biggest reason the ABC Family kids block was created and later changed into Jetix.
 
4KidsTV didn't air any of the previous Beyblade series, so there's no reason for me to believe that they'd pick up the latest one. The previous Beyblade series aired on Toon Disney, so the most likely candidate to air the new series would seem to be Disney XD.
