===1986-1998 and the "Action Zone" (1994-1995)===

''[[WildC.A.T.s (TV series)|WildC.A.T.s]]'' was show, along with ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 TV series)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' and ''[[Skeleton Warriors]]'', that was grouped into the "[[Action Zone]]" gimmick that featured a fly-though robotic style pre-opening that eventually went into the show's opening sequence during its CBS run. The series was canned around the same time this gimmick was dropped (even though ''TMNT'' was allowed to retain the Action Zone gimmick until the end of its run two years later).

In 1997, CBS began broadcasting ''[[Wheel 2000]]'', and was broadcasting it simultaneously with [[Game Show Network|GSN]]. ''In the News'' was briefly revived as part of CBS's all-"[[educational/informational]]" Saturday morning lineup during the 1997-1998 season, but without the involvement of original narrators [[Christopher Glenn]] and [[Gary Shepard]]. Since 1997, like any other network, ''CBS Kidshow'' programming varies in each CBS affiliate's schedule. For example, From 1997 to 1998, [[KTVT]] in [[Fort Worth, Texas|Fort Worth, TX]] aired ''CBS Kidshow'' from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturdays and 7 a.m. to 8 a.m. on Sundays.
