CBBC

CBBC is a British children's television/online brand by the BBC, targeted at kids and teenagers aged 6-15. It has a younger kids channel called CBeebies.

Until the launch of CBeebies in 2002, CBBC also used to be targeted at pre-schoolers. CBBC is home to gold-standard shows such as: Shaun the Sheep, Roy, Strange Hill High, Millie Inbetween, Bill and Ben, Bodger and Badger, The Secret Show, Rugrats, Teletubbies, Tweenies and many more. CBeebies airs preschool shows from CBBC.

The logo
CBBC's logo is simply made up of stylized letters or objects. From 1990-1997 it was the word 'CHILDREN'S' written in weird letters (the C and S were written in the Gill Sans font (the BBC's corporate font from 1997-2019); from that time it was called Children's BBC), from 1997-2002 it was a yellow rectangle with a black C next to the BBC logo (that looks like a bumble bee!), from 2002-2007 it was a green blob (often called 'bugs' or Bugbies, as mentioned by CBeebies) with a big purple C above the BBC logo (from 2005 it was in the shape of a teardrop), from 2007-2016 it was the stylized text 'CBBC' with a fat green outline (in September of 2010 the logo went 3D), and from 2016 onwards it's now a circle carved up in different colors to make the word 'CBBC'. CBeebies' logo is simply the word 'CBeebies' written in a grungy font in yellow with purple holes (on merchandise the holes would have different colors) which is still used today. This is similar to Nickelodeon's logo which is written in the Balloon font (from 1984-2009; Litebulb from 2009 onwards).

Awards
In 2008, CBBC was voted Children's Channel of the Year by BAFTA Awards, and in 2014, one of its shows, Shaun the Sheep, was voted the Nation's Favourite BBC Children's Charatcer EVER!, which can be seen here.
