Kids Show was the unaired pilot episode for Wonder Showzen.
Development[]
This pilot was meant for the USA Network. However, after a few minutes of viewing, executives there quickly concluded it did not fit the network's programming style.
Even so, in a later year Viacom was re-branding MTV2 and made Wonder Showzen part of its new programming lineup. It aired as part of Sick 'Em Fridays.
