Sadly No. there aren't any kids in my house but if there was you'd bet your butt they'd be watching it! :P
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

My youngest cousin watched/watches Kai on Nicktoons. It's actually motivated him to start drawing comics. I'm so proud. *sniff*
Nothing matters (in a cosmic sense.) Have a good time.

Ill be making sure my son watches it, who was just born a week ago. DBZ Kai uncut for him when he grows up (unless of course we get a better release but lets be realistic here.)

If you are talking to me then no. It will be the original and unaltered product.

Thanks. Ehh..I'm thinking 5-6, as well as showing him stuff like Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry, Avatar The Last Airbender, and other similar shows. Today's dumbed down kids shows wont be watched.

Well, my younger brother's friends who live near me watch it every so often, but only bits and pieces of it.

Don't forget the Legend of Korra! It's actually very good and one of the few times I can say a sequel does the original justice.

Agreed, thought I always found Korra to be more..teen centered rather than the more family like show of The Last Airbender. Both series are great but I think Avatar would be easier for him to follow and then Korra when hes abit older.

Not sure about this general time frame but when Kai was still being shown on Nicktoons my relatives (lots of little kids, I'm part Mexican :p) told me how much they loved to watch it. I also got to impress them with my Dragon Box sets. 8)

They've changed my life - changed the way I act on the earth. Doesn't that make them kind of real? They might be imaginary but, but they're more important than most of us here. And they're all gonna be around here long after we're dead. So, in a way, those things are more realer than any of us.

You're not gonna allow him watch TV shows that are on TV now? That's really mean... and weird.

I don't think it's mean or weird. Most of the shows directed at children have reached ridiculous levels of stupidity. Do these creators really think that all children now-a-days are complete and utter morons? There are plenty of shows on Cartoon Network or the like that are so outright dumb that I don't let my younger brother watch them. Apparently there is a new show on CN called Uncle Grandpa that he wanted to watch. Needless to say, it only took about 30 seconds before that intelligence insulting dreck was banned from our house. I have plenty of anime, including Dragon Ball, that I keep him busy with to keep his mind off modern garbage.

I seen a few, but not a whole lot. I don't think Kai is as popular to other kids show like Spongebob, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Power Rangers and Adventure TIme.

Who cares that its not as popular with kids as it was before. I think Nicktoons and Vortexx keep the franchise alive in the hearts of children.

To be fair, those two channels are not the most popular kids channels. I'm betting most kids don't have those channels at home. CW is also a bad channel for kids shows given that Dragon Knight bombed on that channel a few years back due to poor marketing. Yu-Gi-Oh does well on CW because there's always marketing for it. I still see tv ads for cards and cards still being sold at stores like Target. With Kai, I pretty much seen nothing in the past three or four years.
