Sci-Fi Kidz

Sci-Fi Kidz (formerly Bear Bones on Sci-Fi Channel from 1997 to 1999 and Bear Bones on Sci-Fi from 1999 to 2001) was a defunct Saturday and Sunday morning American children's programming block that aired on Sci Fi (now Syfy) from September 5, 1997 to December 30, 2004. It featured animated and live-action series from Bear Bones Entertainment, Universal Television Animation, Gingo and some acquired programming aimed at children between the ages of 5 and 15.

History
In 1996, realizing that MCA acquired Multimedia's entertainment assets, including Gingo, the network gave them access to The Animation Station and USA Action Extreme Team, promoting Gingo's shows on the air.

It was announced to Sci-Fi executives in early 1997, that Bear Bones Entertainment and Gingo were planning a joint venture to program their Saturday morning block, under the name Sci-Toonz, which consists of animated programming from the Gingo and Bear Bones Entertainment libraries on Sci Fi Channel. It was renamed "Bear Bones on Sci-Fi Channel" later on and it was presented to Sci-Fi executives. The block made its debut on September 5, 1997. During the 1999 rebrand, it was shortened to Bear Bones on Sci-Fi.

In 2001, it was announced that USA would rebrand the kids block to Sci-Fi Kidz, following the effects of the 9/11 attacks. With this, came a new logo and a new branding. With this, its counterpart on USA Network was rebranded to USA Kids. The rebrand took effect on October 13, 2001. It was announced that in 2004, that NBCUniversal is planning on discontinuing kids programming on USA network and Sci Fi completely. The last airing took place on December 30, 2004, and was later replaced by reruns of Sci-Fi's live-action programming.
