After CBS's programming agreement with Nelvana ended in 2000, the network subsequently entered into a deal with [[Nickelodeon]] (which became a sister property to CBS, as a result of one-time CBS subsidiary-turned-media conglomerate [[Viacom (original)|Viacom]]'s merger with the network) to air programming from the [[Nick Jr. (TV programming block)|Nick Jr. block]] under the banner ''Nick Jr. on CBS''.<ref name="Nick Jr. on CBS"/> The block debuted on September 16, 2000, hosted by Face, the animated host/mascot originated on the flagship Nick Jr. block. The lineup was rebranded as simply ''Nick on CBS'' on September 14, 2002, as the block incorporated live-action and animated Nickelodeon series aimed at older children in addition to the Nick Jr. series. The older-skewing Nickelodeon series were removed from the block on September 11, 2004, refocusing the block back exclusively toward preschooler-oriented series; the block also began incorporating interstitial hosted segments featuring Piper O'Possum.
