common sense media says
Comcast's site lets kids pick their own content.
parents & educators say
What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this is a commercial, video-on-demand site run by Comcast Cable that lets kids watch what they want, when they want. Kids need to get permission from their parents to take part in the monitored and tame forums, but have access to most everything else (games, reading the comments, watching harmless user videos) without becoming a member. The site uses some savvy marketing tricks -- like doling out awards for the kids who earn the most "kachings" by playing games and featuring many ads for Comcast content.
Educational value:
Kids can contribute ideas and content (videos, etc.) to the site.
Violence:
Some of the shows have slapstick humor, but nothing too scary.
Sex:
Not applicable.
Language:
Not applicable.
Consumerism:
This site advertises Comcast and exclusive Kabillion stuff.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking:
Not applicable.

My Kids now go there first
The channel runs on Comcast Time Warner and other cable channels. It has some classic kids shows such as Bobby's World and lots of new stuff such as Hero 108, Zhu Zhu Pets, Super Sportslets (a really original show) and an ever changing lie up.

Jam Packed Site with Quality Cartoons!!
This site should really be any kids (6-12) homepage. There is are tons of activities including games, contests, videos, and music to keep them occupied for a long time. Right when the kids sign up (with parental permission of course) they are given an avatar and a bedroom to decorate. The more they participate within the site, the more money they have to spend on decorating their room and character. With all the nonsense and dangerous sites available to kids, its refreshing to come across a site like Kabillion.

Website needs attention
This website apparently has no moderation. The forums are full of inappropriate language and behavior. Any contact attempts with staff are ignored.
