| - The WB Television Network (commonly shortened to The WB and short for Warner Bros_ was an American television network that was first launched on January 11, 1995 as a joint venture between the Warner Bros. Entertainment division of Time Warner and the Tribune Broadcasting subsidary of the Tribune Company, with the former acting as controlling partner. The network principally aired programs targeting teenagers and young adults between the ages of 13 and 34, with the exception of its weekday daytime and Saturday morning program block, Kids' WB, which was geared toward children ages 7 to 12. On January 24, 2006, CBS Corporation and Warner Bros. Entertainment announced plans to shut down the network and launch The CW later that same year. The WB Television Network shut down on September 17, 2006, with select programs from both it and competitor UPN (which had shut down two days earlier) moving to The CW when it launched the following day, September 18. Time Warner re-used The WB brand for an online network that launched on April 28, 2008, about 18 months after The WB Television Network ceased broadcasting operations. Until it was discontinued in December 2013, the website allowed users to watch shows aired on the former television network, as well as original programming and shows formerly hosted on the now-defunct In2TV service (which itself was created prior to Time Warner's spinoff of AOL). The website could only be accessed within the United States. The network aired Moody's Point and Jay TV until 2006 when both those shows transitioned to The CW.

You're just parachutes to me Cause I'm phat, like Jared used to be Who me? Yeah, me. The WB. The Wordburg-to-the-lar. You're in trouble you see. But go ahead and try my hand End up flat like a frying pan By the man, who gets crunker than Iron Man Wordburg. Say my name a lot when I rap and I could give a crap if you got a problem with that Cause either way, I keep bringing clear and present danger You ain't a rapper, just a queer unpleasant stranger And I'm still here making you spill your beer cause when you see me I'm ill Like Ill Seer With fine rhymes flying up the wazoo pick up a shoe, make you shoo like The Great Gazoo (Chorus) Yo, I got the feeling Come on, you know the vibe I'm on is Cybertron Monty Python, Leviathan, I'm lying on, a gold mine I call my own mind It helps me do what most rappers don't...rhyme You know how I feel about rap without wordplay It sucks, like getting a vacuum for your birthday Or pouring fine wine down the drain So peep the knowledge, like looking at Einstein's brain Mason's on the case, son, you know the beats are cool and I'm bringing more drama than drag queens at theater school Is Wordburglar dope? Man, that question's rhetorical Act like you know like that woman who played The Oracle This bard's remarkable, pard You past participle Wearing bizarre articles Rapping about hard arsenals Full of shit like an arse carnival You fart particle I'll leave you hanging like a nard barnacle (Chorus)

The network is remembered differently depending on how old you are. If you were a kid in the mid-'90s, you may fondly remember The WB as the host network for Animaniacs after it was acquired from Fox, along with other Steven Spielberg-helmed Saturday morning cartoons such as Freakazoid and the Animaniacs spin-off Pinky and The Brain. If you were a kid in the late '90s and early 2000s, you remember it for pretty much selling out Saturday mornings to 4Kids. Those who were teenagers during the late '90s or early 2000s will remember it for giving the world such teen dramas as 7th Heaven, ~Dawson's Creek~, and Everwood -- shows that the network is, without a doubt, most famous for. Still others (teenagers and genre fans alike) remember the network for Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Roswell until those two series were picked up -- perhaps ironically, in hindsight -- by UPN (The WB still held onto Angel at least). And of course, the network churned out quite a bit of Sitcom and particularly Dom Com flavored shows during its life. And of course, many still remember it for reducing Michigan J. Frog into a cheap corporate shill for the network (to the point where some TV writers referred to The WB as "The Frog") until the frog quietly exited the stage from advertisements and promotions during the last two years of the network's life (though his image was one of the last transmitted by the network; the last thing shown was the end credits of the pilot episode of Dawson's Creek). Lately, The WB has been reborn as an online network, airing both older shows (including most of their old teen dramas) and original programming.
