Caillou

Madeline Fretz - Caillou was a Canadian cartoon airing on PBS about a boy playing at home, going to school and on his outings. However, the show was largely hated due to the main character's whining. The show aired on Sprout and then Universal Kids from September 26, 2005 to March 31, 2019, but it is unknown why the show survived both the 10th anniversary and the Universal Kids launch even though it was a PBS show.

Sprout described the series as:

Caillou is a wide-eyed four-year-old who learns about life - one adventure at a time! From his own backyard to his very first airplane ride, Caillou discovers the wonder and excitement of being a little boy in a very big world.
When one episode aired on Sprout, the "hate" in "I Hate Baseball" was edited out because Sprout didn't like curse words.

The show also had a Sprout Diner recipe, Caillou's Crunchy Carrot Salad.

The show also had a Grandparents' Day marathon, featuring messages from Sproutlets to their grandparents.


The show left UniKids on March 31, 2019.
