Nick Jr. Channel
The Nick Jr. Channel is an American pay television channel spun off from Nickelodeon's long-running Nick Jr. programming block. It is run by Paramount Global through its networks division's Kids and Family Group. The channel launched on September 28, 2009, and primarily targets preschoolers. Its lineup features a mix of originally-produced programming, along with series from the Nickelodeon weekday block; to avoid confusion between the two different entities, the separate channel has been identified on-air as "the Nick Jr. Channel" since March 2018. The channel replaced Noggin, which was relaunched as a streaming service in 2015 and acts as a separate sister brand. Noggin's programming is distinct from the Nick Jr. channel's: it mainly carried pre-teen-oriented programs at its launch, and its 2015 streaming service features a variety of exclusive series.

The channel heavily drew from Sesame Workshop's back catalogue. In its first three years, Noggin made several original shows: the live-action educational show ''A Walk in Your Shoes'', the short-form puppetry series '' Oobi'', the game show ''Sponk!'', and the variety series ''Phred on Your Head Show''. ...
