Nick Jr. on CBS was a eight-hour children's programming block on CBS that began in September 2000, replacing CBS Kids. This Saturday morning block presented programming from Nick Jr., which at the time shared common ownership with CBS under Viacom International. The block was hosted by Face from Nick Jr.
In September 2002, this block was replaced by a new block called Nick on CBS, airing both Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. shows. The Nickelodeon shows were removed in 2004 in favor for a return to an exclusively-Nick Jr. block. The revival was hosted by Piper O'Possum from Nick Jr.
At the beginning of 2006, Viacom was split into two different companies, with CBS becoming its own standalone company and Nick Jr. going to the new Viacom. Nick Jr. on CBS would end that September and was replaced by KOL Secret Slumber Party on CBS, a multi-year partnership between CBS, DiC Entertainment and AOL. This block was in turn replaced on September 15, 2007 with the current Saturday morning block, KEWLopolis.
