Thanks for having me, this was a blast to collab on! What's your all's favorite PBS Kids show?
Good question. Between the Lions it needed more episodes.
My fave PBS show was Sesame Street
It's that you join because you know more about PBS kids than I do, yeah only show I like from it was Rosie's rules.
Where In the World Is Carmen Sandiego?
Many shows like fetch to cyberchase. I genuinely remembered 6-7 years ago where I sometimes would wake up around 5:30-7:00 am just to see one of these shows on PBS Kids.
PBS Kids will always be an important part of everyone's childhood and it's great to know that compared to the other big names in TV animation this is the channel that managed to keep its good quality going over years.

I loved pbs and noggin so much as a kid ahhh amazing!!
Lol no
Facts
@@calebglasscock7392 I got the rope you hold, I watched PBS in 2018 and it used to be quite good but now since I use the Internet a lot more and I'm older I don't pay much attention to it anymore:(
Fetch with ruff ruffman,martha speaks,word girl. I can keep going many classics that helped shape my childhood 💯
Truly the era
Oh man Word Girl... I haven't heard of that in forever, it's super nostalgic now.
Yes! I love Wordgirl! Wordgirl was my favorite show as a kid
Mine were Thomas, Arthur, and Sesame Street.
Bro I loved fetch with ruff ruffman
Fact: There is a new PBS channel called PBSretro that airs the Old Thomas from the early 2000s, Reading Rainbow, Mr. Rogers, Kratts Creatures, and Zooboomafoo. This channel is on Roku TV right now
I checked that out yesterday
That's pretty awesome, I hope it allows for kids of the newer generations grow up with them
Be nice if they would add DragonTales, Between the Lions, Clifford the Big Red Dog, and Sagwa the Chinese Siamese Cat to the channel, I mean those shows are still PBS Kids properties!
Awesome!
It’s not on my roku it must only be in the stupid us
I love PBS Kids, purely because of how charming it is. It's so unalienating and inviting. As a boy with autism and ADHD, PBS Kids was always my go to when I was little, because it never overwhelmed or overstimulated me, it was just a fun time. The bumpers are cute, the mascots are iconic, and the shows themselves (for the most part) still hold up today. I grew up with PBS Kids (because I didn't have cable) and it was such a fun and memorable channel. I'm glad I was a PBS kid.
As someone with adhd and a son who has it I can see how overstimulating a lot of newer shows are when I took his tablet from him the withdrawal was not so bad I could handle it and he was a lot better without it more calm
ngl, everyone wanted to be on ruff ruffman
I was in middle school when it came out (summer of 8th grade I believe) and I wanted to be on ruffman. Lol
Ruff Ruffman was my jam when I was a kid
you're so right, six year old me was obsessed with this show
If they asked my 35-year-old ass to be on Ruff Ruffman, I wouldn't even hesitate.
Fetch taught me about the electromagnetic spectrum before we even covered it in physics. I felt so smart when we were going over it lol
glad i grew up in the last generation that watched stuff like this before the internet took over
Same
Me too now stop self serving
Yep thankfully us early 2000s kids were still able to watch stuff like PBS on the regular.
Same with me!
Oh yeah man. I feel like kids are dumber nowadays.
I’m at least glad that PBS still hasn’t technically died yet despite their rebranding in the 2020s. Although depending on how things go in 2025, they may be at risk.
Wym by 2025?
@@exeggutivejudge3747 Politics
Why did you have to remind me of that? :
That’ll be a very sad day indeed. Hope PBSKids doesn’t have to worry about a cut in funds like PBS was threatened with decades ago. Mr. Rogers was and still is a huge hero in public, educational children’s programming in the United States.
@@joefrew1614 Agreed.
Am I the only one who took 20 years to realize that “between the lions” was a pun on “between the lines?”
Nope took me 30 years lol
@@ghostbeargames6286 "Between the Lions" debuted in 2000. It has not existed for thirty years.
@@mentoze6328 I'm finding out thanks to your comment.
@@mentoze6328 no 🤦🏾♀️ 😂
If you watch it back again, you’ll see that whole show is a play on words.
PBS Kids was definitely useful for those that didn't have cable back then including me as I only had Toon Disney when I was young and those that aren't on cable like PBS Kids itself and GO was a great block that was on it's older kids focus. Nice job on that video!
Funny enough in 2003 (I was 10) was the first time I ever got cable in the house. It was like a whole new world opened up with so many different shows I needed to catch up on and new ones starting up. But, I'd also still give PBS a watch daily for Arthur, Dragon Tales, Cyberchase. Those were good quality shows.
I had cable but Fox Kids, Kids WB, One Saturday Morning and PBS Kids were BIG in the 90s if your parents or grandparents didn't have "cable."
I watched cable at family and friends' houses, but PBS was a huge entertainment source for kid me.
That, and Sunday funnies/comic digests. 😍
The only kids channel my mom had was PBS, and I still quote lines from Arthur even 5 years after I watched it for the last time. I still remember so much from all the shows I watched. Arthur of course, Odd Squad, Curious George, Peg and Cat, Martha Speaks, and Wordgirl. Really helped me learn so much.
Grew up with antenna and black box, PBS was the only channel I knew how to get consistently lol. I also loved MPT’s Afternoon Tea segment with old British comedies.
My only other entertainment was SpongeBob or veggie tales dvds. I lived under a rock really.
Cyber chase and Arthur?? Man those shows take me back. Btw, I have the popcorn and juice on standby for this video 🍿.
hope you enjoy!
I wish Cyberchase had a real ending.
@@ToniCiprianiX007Same man, loved watching Cyberchase back then. It's a shame it never got a ending
@@ToniCiprianiX007 Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite Cyberchase episode? Please let me know in the comments down below.
@nicolesherman8974 In my case, i already have a bowl of cereal on a Tuesday morning ready for these classic cartoons! 😎 (As opposed to the Saturday morning cartoon)
A network that should be free access to all who had a TV dissolved because they flew to close to the sun. Which sucks because as someone who too grew up with PBS Kids this hurts me. I'll never forget the goof times I had with this network. Their never be anything like it.
I think one major problem is actually what happened when Dragon Tales was getting almost Arthur numbers...as Emotional Devolopment+Spanish Culture and Language being taught naturally with the kids automatically translating to the viewer without saying "this means" was an extremely rare combination.
There were only 26 new Enrique adventures in 13 episodes of a typical 26 episode season which would have made the count 52. Sure they gave a lot of attention to Enrique, but not as much as they could have. I mean sure Max is the overall protagonist, Emmy the deuteragonist and Enrique the tritagonist but they could have made a few more episodes at least that involved Enrique somehow and brought the count up to an even 100.
For instance they could have had Enrique get a solo adventure twice for some reason (like Max and Emmy are on vacation and his family is house sitting/possibly sick), and have Enrique get a few adventures with just Emmy (because they clearly were crushing on each other and held hands a few times) and a few adventures with just Max so they could do bro stuff...and finally just before the ending...they could have had Emmy get her own solo adventure set and one last solo adventure for Max...because the Max solo adventures really wound up turning out being the most interesting.
Another issue? Several other shows went on a tad too long or didn't get renewed when need be.
Arthur should have stopped in 2016.
Barney should have stopped in 2000.
Zoom and Fetch stopped at the right time.
Cyberchase is still going, but they should stop it soon by finally curing Motherboard.
Reading Rainbow got canned for an understandable reason, but could have had a few more years.
Sesame Street should have ended at season 35.
PBS also had an issue when they decided to make their three PBS Kids movies from 1998-2000. In the Barney movie...no kids from the show were used. Sure it's nice having a more serious plot, but it needed the kids from the show at the time to really make it work...like maybe Chip, Linda, Keesha, Robert, Curtis, Emily, Kim and Stephen could have all been present for this since they were the main kids at the time. The Shining Time Station movie was too late despite plans for earlier than it was, it should have been in the early 90's, and finally the Elmo in Grouchland should have been deemed a no go because Sesame Street already had a movie with "Follow that Bird"...what really should have been picked at that time should have used an ABC rule.
They had the B part already, but it could have been modified it to use the show kids and have them sing the theme song to bring Barney to life...that probably would have helped.
For A? This is where Arthur's Missing Pal should have been released and in theatrical 2d instead of early CGI.
For C? They or Fox probably could have pulled a Carmen movie off.
Naw. Wild Kratts is huuuuuuge, and was not mentioned once in this video. Wild Kratts even just posted their 7th season with all new episodes. PBS Kids on Google TV is awesome. It's the only thing we stream on TV now adays.
When I was a young child, I lived in an unfriendly neighborhood and I couldn't go outside as much, PBS Kids gave me the comfort and entertainment I needed to get through. Word Girl, Martha's speaks, The Electric Company Reboot, etc. Just a decade ago I was raised with cable T.V and now things have changed. I seriously wonder what it's like to be a young kid now, where streaming and RUclips content is more dominant.
Genuinely.
I try my best to not think less of younger generations, because they don't have any control in how they were raised, but I do worry about them. How much do they get to learn outside of school in the cartoons they watch? Is there any way for kids in a similar situation to yourself to get the same kind of educational content anymore? Or does it all have a subscription cost now? I hear a lot about kids not being able to read. Some as old as teens. It's heartbreaking.
A lot has changed since we were kids. I can't place everything that might have led us here- Probably a lot of budget cuts and government failings, among a myriad of other things (The rise of the internet came to mind, at least in terms of people just giving their toddler free reign of an ipad instead of turning on an educational TV show)
I really, really hope things get better for the youth of today. For everyone's sake.
0:03 he said the thing
In my opinion 1999-2018, PBS Kids was actually cooking. Now, most of the shows (I don't know how it is outside of my home state programs.) Usually reruns of the same recent shows would be on all the time.
Yup, it hurts. I knew it was over once they stopped rerunning Fetch, Wordgirl, Peep, Clifford, and Pocoyo.
Thank you for making this video! I remember watching Zoboomafoo, Dragon Tails, Word Girl, and Curious George on this network everyday after coming home from school. Good times and tbh I can remember distinctly the exact Chuck E. Cheese commercial that played all the time 😂
ELECTRIC COMPANYYY mention!
That show brings back the last time that my Dad was in good health prior to his passing.
I'll never forget LMM singing Silent E with Shickwave
Rest in peace.
@@TehPlaylistSpartan thank you
Silent E IS a ninja.
Bro, the UN-MUFFIN EPISODE?! GGGAAAAAAAAAAASSSS!!!
Dude, I LOVED watching PBS Kids when I was a kid and admittedly preteen and young teen!!! My favorite shows were DragonTales, Zoboomafoo, Arthur, Clifford the Big Red Dog, Between the Lions, etc. I also adored its sister channel PBS Kids Sprout!!!!!!
No Child Left Behind has impacted this country sooooo much, I appreciate your integration of the topic. It’s all connected.
Man, I grew up in PBS kids. I remember watching Arthur, Dragon tales, Fetch, Dinosaurs train, Wild Kratts, and many more. I go back every once in a while to see the new show or rewatch an old episode. I hope they find a way to adapt to the current market of entertainment.
RIP Fred Rogers!
PBS Kids brings a lot of memories of my childhood. Shows like Dragon Tales, Cyberchase, Between the Lions, Wishbone, ect are some of them that really defined my early years and went through most of my teen years here and there. The shows had a sense of quality and teaching purposes that sadly you barely see today.
Coming home from school to watch Curious George and The Berenstain Bears while eating lunch will forever be one of my most favorite memories! Back when things were so simple 😔💖
PBS Kids for me as a child of immigrants is what taught me English and how to read. I loved watching shows like super why and Word World.
PBS Kids used to make some great children shows that definitely had an impact on me growing up. Now there's rarely any shows like that anymore.
Man does anyone remember George Shrinks? About a boy who was like the size of an ant or something? Great show! Zoom, zooboomafu, dragon tales, Arthur, between the lions, all bangers! Kids raised by PBS truly learned great values and knowledge from these shows. I’m sure majority turned out to be great people because of the impact of this station
I thought I was the only one who remembered George Shrink.
I only remember ads for that show
The sheer amount of nostalgia I’m getting from the footage alone feels like a punch to the face.
I remember watching PBS Kids up through middle school before school. Nature Cat and Arthur are truly the bomb. The Clifford reboot was disappointing though. Another memory of PBS Kids I have is Kart Kingdom. Man, I used to spend hours just goofing off in that game. I’m sure many developed friendships in that game, as did I. It’s a shame it shut down four years ago.
I remember playing Kart Kingdom! That was so fun
Was hoping to find a comment mentionng it
When I was little, I was glad to grow up with sesame street, Arthur, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, Dinosaur Train, Super Why, Word Girl, Wild Kratts, and Odd Squad. I'm grateful Cocomelon and RUclips Kids didn't exist in 2007-2014 😅
Arthur, Zoboomafoo, Maya & Miguel, Cyberchase, and FETCH! With Ruff Ruffman will always have a place in my heart. I didn’t have cable growing up so PBS Kids was my childhood!
Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. Do you like the Cyberchase episode, "Jimaya Jam", the one where ghosts challenge the CyberSquad to a game of basketball? Yes or no? Please let me know in the comments down below.
PBS kids was the channel that made you convinced you’d rather be outside
Surprised this showed up on my timeline but I welcome it! I tuned in a ton to Arthur, Clifford, and Dragon Tales back in the day.
Though as strange as this may sound, I was also a big fan of the Dash and Dot bumpers back in early 2000s. Something about them just had this funny little charm to them. Was glad to see some edited in for visual footage!
I guess long story short, PBS Kids was a network that was on top of the children's education mountain at one point before it's competition, Noggin and Sprout, threw them off and tried to replicate their success, only temporarily. Now, there really isn't any problem with PBS Kids outside of bad decisions, it's just that its popularity wouldn't last once other channels came in with better tactics and financial decisions.
Some somehow they survive
@@JuanGomez-ke5py The answer lies in the taxes. Of course, the other common pitfall for kids' TV is to pair a toyetic show with related toy ads and commit advertising guideline violations, Sinclair Broadcast group getting heavily fined for placing Hot Wheels commercials around a Team Hot Wheels special being a recent example.
Between the Lions, Dragon Tales, and Clifford were some of my favorites way back when, and still are today.
Zoom was like the peak of PBS Kids honestly. I feel sorry for anyone who never got to experience the joy of watching Zoom after getting home from school. What a time to be alive.
I only knew about Zoom from the Arthur segment on it.
I had no cable but I didn't care, pbs raised me right! They made bangers such as the electric company, arthur and ruffman! I really liked the shows for older kids which was Pbs Kids Go! RIP, You will be missed ;(
I worked for PBS as one of their fundraisers for some time. It was a good carry over job that put some good titles on my resume but it sounds like I left at the right time.
awe pbs was my childhood, frannys feet was my favorite besides arthur or barney
My parents refused to pay for cable so PBS was about the best we got. We got an upgrade when we started getting CBC Kids from Canada and that was a TREAT
Hello. Good afternoon. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite The Adventures of Napkin Man! episode of all time? Please let me know in the comments down below.
I think about the show Cyberchase at least once a month. It was absolutely my favorite show. Plus the online games were so fun.
Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. I love Cyberchase, too. What is your favorite Cyberchase episode? Please let me know in the comments down below.
Closed Captioning Is Paid For In Part By Viewers Like You.
Thank You.
And then the captions would be so off 😂😂😂
yeah youtube captions suck ill fix it later.
@@StagehandMotel6 lol I was talking about when I was a kid and was watching TV with the captions on
You're welcome.
So sad kids today won’t have the free quality educational tv we had growing up. PBS kids was a vital, essential part of my childhood. It was my escape to see what healthy family and community looked like. So sad to watch it all go downhill.
The channel still exists, but nobody's really caring about it now.
Honestly i grew up with PBS Kids in my life, i had good memories with most of the shows I've watched. Though it's sad to see like this state right now.
I was born in the P-Pals era of PBS Kids, and considered "Barney & Friends" and "Magic School Bus" my most watched PBS shows at the time, along with Lamb Chop's Play-Along, Shining Time Station & "Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego?" on occasions.
PBS Kids was my main cable TV childhood growing up! My all-time favorite shows on that channel are Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends (obviously), Cyberchase, Sesame Street, Mr. Roger's Neighborhood, Dragon Tales, Clifford the Big Red Dog, Maya & Miguel, Reading Rainbow and Fetch w/ Ruffman. And even though I never saw the other few shows that aired on that channel and only seeing them via home media or on YT, but I also love watching Shining Time Station (that vessel Thomas to the States), Theodore Tugboat and The Magic School Bus!
It's a shame that alongside Cartoon Network, PBS Kids would decline from removing their Classic shows to being demoted b/c of corporate meddling companies and such. BTW, what are your thoughts on PBS Retro on Roku? I know they're re-airing other shows like the model airings of Thomas and a few others.
PBS Kids being on Roku only means that TV Cable will one day end.
PBS Kids was my childhood back then and I grew up with so many memories from shows like arthur, cyberchase, dragon tales, zoboomafoo, wordgirl, clifford the big red dog, barney etc. You name it. They were all great and enjoyable!
Thomas & Friends, Arthur, WordGirl, Martha Speaks, Fetch With Ruff Ruffman, Cyberchase, and Wild Kratts were the sh*t.
It's crazy that Cyberchase is still going, though. The first few seasons were great, but even as a kid, I felt like it became kind of mid when the flash animation era began. It's also unfortunate that Gilbert Gottfried died and wasn't able to voice Digit to the end... if there ever IS an end, that is
I think that "Cyberchase" went on hiatus for a while, though, so it has not run continuously.
@@douglasandrews8977 Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite Cyberchase episode? Please let me know in the comments down below.
It was a good day when your teacher lets you watch pbs kids when you finish your work
My childhood all in one video let’s go, can’t wait to watch!
Love this video. It is nice to remember all these great shows. I used to watch wordgirl, ruffruffman, and miguel and maya, and other shows. I hold the pbs kids shows on the same caliber as nick and disney.
Cyberchase, George Shrinks, Fetch, and Arthur were amazing.😊
I still have nostalgia for PBS Kids, so it was nice watching while it lasted.
My favorite show on PBS KIDS was Liberty's Kids even though I was born six years after it first came out. I didn't even know it was on PBS KIDS until I searched it up online . . . .
I grew up on PBS and watched regularly up until I was 8 or 9 (2004, always tuned in to Arthur) then occasionally up until 2008 while my younger sister was a toddler.
Now, I am a father to a 6 yr old son now and have been watching PBS Kids with him for some years now. I don't think there was ever really a "fall"; the channel is just different and aimed to a new generation far removed from mine or any of ours who are pushing 30 or already in their 30's.
Some of my favorite new shows have been Wild Kratts, Let's Go Luna and Molly of Denali. Notable mention because it starting airing in the time period I was not watching: Nature Cat (especially since I am an SNL fan in my adult years haha). It is still a wholesome and educational channel with lots to go around.
(I'm curious about Alma's Way, haven't seen much of it yet. I want to give it the benefit as I'm hispanic and seems like a newer take on Maya and Miguel from my childhood).
Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite part from the Nature Cat episode, "Moth Frolic-Fest", the one about moths? Please let me know in the comments down below.
I’m so glad my son likes to watch pbs kids it was one of my favorites and still watch it for comfort when I’m about to have a breakdown
Really enjoyed this video!! W Collab!
I have so much nostalgia with PBS Kids. Such a shame how PBS Kids AND Reading Rainbow got done 💔
Also, shoutout to Chick-Fil-A 🔥🔥
I remember them sponsoring Between the Lions!
Yep!
I had no idea until watching this video that Sprout was an offshoot (no pun intended) of PBS Kids. I enjoyed both when I was younger.
I remember watching Thomas the tank Engine on PBS and Sprout Before!
5:17 core memory unlocked
I’m surprised you remembered Adventures From The Book Of Virtues! Whenever I tell people that it’s one of my favorite PBS Kids shows, they ask me what was that show about because they claim to have never seen it
My siblings and I would finish our homework and eat dinner while watching fetch
Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite part from the Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman episode, "Ruffman Manor is Haunted!"? Please let me know in the comments down below.
PBS Kids was invaluable for families like mine that couldn't afford cable, so it was a reliable local channel to watch
I remember this station! When I was a kid, we didn’t have Disney Channel, Nick or Cartoon Network (oddly enough, I remember watching Teen Titans with my dad), so I watched this. The memories of watching Arthur, Sesame Street, Fetch with Ruff Ruff Man, Word Girl, Super Why, Dinosaur Train, Cyberchase and even some Cat in the Hat just flooded my mind. I still remember the apartment we used to live in while watching Elmo’s World. I feel like I’m a kid again. Doc Brown as Hacker will never leave my mind.
Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. So, do you like The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That! episode, "Water Walkers", the one about water striders? Please let me know in the comments down below.
Tbh, compared to other animation-based networks (and blocks), PBS Kids never had a downfall.
Sure, the channel (and block) already became a Nick Jr. clone once the 2013 rebrand happened and many of the pre-2006 shows (except for some like Arthur, Clifford and Cyberchase) were all retired by 2009-2013, but it's still doing wonderful with shows like the Clifford reboot and Elinor Wonders Why.
And funny enough, outside of Mister Rogers Neighborhood, they don't have original programming. Most of their stuff were acquired by iconic studios like Sesame Workshop, Universal Animation Studios, Ragdoll and the biggest studio, Nelvana.
Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite Arthur episode? Please let me know in the comments down below.
Wild Kratts and Martha Speaks were the shows we watched almost everyday for 7 years. We watched a few others, but Martha Speaks and Wild Kratts were our favorties.
wow these are the literal childhood shows I watched as a kid and I feel like I almost remember all of them.. great times.
PBS Kids is still iconic and BIG American TV lore oh man I totally loved Seamse Street, Between the Lions, Wishbone, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Lamb Chops, Kidsongs, Kratts Creatures, The Magic School Bus and totally Arthur back in the 90's and early 00s.
Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. I don't like Bill Nye the Science Guy at all.
Fetch, electric company, wild kratts, and wordgirl was some of my favorite pbs kids shows ever
Watched PBS kids on channel 25 wviz pbs ideastream . Grew up with Arthur, Sesame Street, big comfy couch, mr rogers , Clifford, Maya and Miguel, between the lions and dragon tales.. then other shows came along like Martha speaks , curious George , and super why also Word Girl
Saw this on Reddit; you have done a good job on it.
I'm on reddit?
@@StagehandMotel6 Yes. Specifically, the television subreddit.
Honestly, out of all of these shows, I still think Teletubbies may be a close 2nd to my all time favorite, which is Sesame Street.
I know there were a lot of folks who were scared of them as a kid, and I can kinda see it, but I always felt happy seeing it because of how much it just felt like watching a bunch of toddlers interacting with things that they find interesting.
And it's always hilarious to me how the teletubbies' toddler behavior also means that many of the funny bits are from when they do something wrong just because they find it funny XD
Why Teletubbies? Also that infamous Lion and Bear segment is so awful that they refused to air it after complaints.
The Teletubbies themselves are fine, I suppose. But it’s certain segments that range from weird but boring to creepy and unsettling that keep it from being good (in my opinion).
@@princesspikachu3915 i just love how it gives off a sense of charm with how it just feels like toddlers exploring their surroundings. It's simple and cute!
And that's true! Although I'm guessing when they made the lion and the bear, they didn't expect it would scare people!
@@emilyjonah3691 I suppose that’s fair. The Teletubbies themselves are pretty darn cute.
Sesame Street is my all time favorite too lol!!
I remember Teletubbies when I was little and baby I love Tinky Winky and La La! 💖
I enjoyed watching Sagwa back on there only to find out there were only a handful of episodes.
Oh God I loved the website and wild krats I wish it never fell off
@@bennitogamez6319 same! I remember being on the Wild Krats page a lot
Dinosaur Train, Wild Kratts, Word Girl, Cyber Chase, Martha Speaks, Super Why. Those were all my jam when I was a kid
This is by far my favorite video from you
Great video. I loved PBS kids back in the day
Matt sent me! Such an informative video I loved it!
PBS and Qubo were a tv haven for the non cable kids.
I remember watching a lot of PTV/PBS Kids on KTCA/TPT Twin Cities PBS!❤️📺🎶👍🏻
As someone who grew up w/out basic cable, PBS Kids was my life. PBS Kids every Weekdays. My weekends were for FoxKids, KidsWB, & ABC's 1 Saturday Morning. As I grew into my teens then adulthood from 2000-2010, I still watched PBS Kids w/my nieces & nephews since very few people in the family still couldn't afford basic cable. Now as a great-uncle, I see how PBS Kids grew up too w/it's content available to the kids. I remember watching Arthur up to the last episode. And I see Cyberchase changed from a show about math, to about the environment. I now have a dog named Wishbone ❤
I seriously miss these days. We had it good growing up. Sorry but this will be a long comment. We had:
Arthur
The Berenstain Bears
Between the Lions
Caillou
Clifford the Big Red Dog (2000)
Clifford’s Puppy Days
Curious George
Cyberchase
Dragon Tales
Fetch with Ruff Ruffman
Franklin
George Shrinks
Liberty’s Kids
Martha Speaks
Maya & Miguel
Reading Rainbow
Sagwa the Chinese Siamese Cat
Sesame Street (90’s-2000’s)
Teletubbies
Thomas & Friends
Wild Kratts
Wishbone
WordGirl
Zaboomafoo
Zoom
Remember that rumor that spread around the early internet about Fred Rogers being in the military?
Let’s be honest here, he didn’t NEED to be in the military to be badass. His words came from a wholesome place, but they always cut through hateful rhetoric like a knife through butter. That’s why he made so much of an impact.
Yeah, it's a shame he left us so soon. But parts of him will definitely stay with us until it's our turn.
2000s PBS Kids was the era I grew up with, watching shows like Teletubbies and Thomas & Friends.
Viewers love their favorite pbs kids shows thank you
I grew up in the time when the internet was starting to get big and ipads were popular. But i remember spending hours and days watching pbs kids and im happy i grew up with more pbs kids than the internet!
Great video and great collab I ve just subbed to him I really find the topic matter you discuss fascinating. 👍🤘
5:41 Is everyone just blind to the improvements that Caillou made later in its run?!
Exactly
It's like they doing this just to follow the trend of hating 😭
I remember when I was younger we at first had the cable plan to watch all the classic channels like Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, and Cartoon Network. A few years later my parents changed it to have less channels cause it was kinda expensive to have for so long. I was left with not many options and one of those being PBS Kids. I’m glad I had the opportunity to grow up with the shows on that network cause lowkey those shows were gas. Curious George, Odd Squad, Wild Krats, CyberChase, Clifford, Arthur, Sesame Street, and more were really fun to watch and I got to learn a thing or two from it as well
My favorite PBS Kids shows are Sesame Street, Dragon Tales, Zoboomafoo, Adventures From The Book Of Virtues, George Shrinks and the 2009 remake of The Electric Company starring Priscilla Diaz
Yay, another George Shrinks fan!😁
@@GalaxyGem2457 George Shrinks is an underrated PBS Kids show. I seriously thought I was the only one who likes it
PBS Kids was sensation and PBS Kids Go! was goated after school bossman. ❤
I remember as a kid in 98, sitting in front of the Sanyo TV eating kixs cereal out of the box watching Arthur. I also learned how to make ice cream from Zoom years later
PBS Kids will always have a place in my heart. Too bad it sucks now.
This video unlocked so many memories I forgot I had
I was a kid in the 200s-2010s who grew up with pbs in the summer my grandma would put it on with my siblings when we were playing and other activities recently I came over their to watch my cousins and when they turned on that channel I slowly thought damn what happened to my childhood
I hope PBS kids is able to hold on as a public channel or even block bc that it was so important to be growing up and I'm sure it will still be beneficial for kids now! I've checked up on the channel a few times in the past years and there are actually some cute and decent newer shows like Elinor Wonders Why :) I don't think it's quite dead yet and I hope it is able to stay around as a solid network for all of the kids out there who only watch public TV like I did
One of my personal favorite shows as a kid was Redwall, because very few shows stood out the same way that show did, even got me into the books.
Born in 98 and I feel like I got to grow up with such a great pbs era
Awsome PBS shows. From past, present and future of all the network for 24 hours. PBS, PBS Jr., TeenPBS and PBStoons are actually same as Nickelodeon properties or Cartoon Network in the actual ways
NBCUniversal buys PBS
dragon tales was my childhood
