Old Later On/Next Bumpers (First Generation)

During the first generation, bumpers were used featuring a small television with animated buttons playing the split-screen credits of a show that was ending, and a circle showing what shows were coming up next and later on. These kind of bumpers used an unknown male announcer. I don't know if this was a VoiceOver or text-to-speech.

Below is an example of these types of bumpers, that MUST be anywhere from 2005 or 2006.

The transcript reads:

Announcer:
Later on, he's 4 and he loves to explore!

Guess who? It's Caillou!

Get ready to laugh and learn with Caillou and his friends.

It's Caillou, later on PBS KIDS Sprout.

Pingu! He sure knows how to have a good time!

Let's join him now. Pingu is coming up next, here on PBS KIDS Sprout.

Here is yet another:


Anyways, do you remember these? I don't because I was 1 and a half by the time Sprout rebranded.
