CITV (Children's ITV) is a British children's morning programming block on ITV2, which launched on 2nd September 2023, but prior to this, CITV had a free-to-air television channel (owned by ITV plc) that ran from 11th March 2006 to 1st September 2023, which broadcast popular shows like Horrid Henry, Mr. Bean the Animated Series, Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids, Sooty and much more. Like CBBC (the children's television channel owned and operated by the BBC), CITV began as a late afternoon programming block that aired on the ITV network (later known as ITV1), and it launched on 3rd January 1983 as the successor to an earlier brand known as Watch It (1980-83). The block premiered the debut episode of Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends on 9th October 1984, and by the time the third series of that show premiered on CITV in 1992, the show began to achieve worldwide acclaim. The late afternoon block and television channel were widely popular with the young Brits at the turn of the twenty-first century, and this was the case until around the early 2020s, when video-on-demand services like BBC iPlayer and ITVX became popular. In late July 2023, ITV launched a new children's hub called ITVX Kids, which is on ITVX; this was the writing on the wall for the CITV channel, since it would be an eventual replacement for the CITV channel, and at 9:00pm on 1st September 2023, the channel ceased broadcasting. The CITV block on ITV1 also ceased broadcasting on 27th August 2023 around 8:25am, which was in service for a good long run of four decades. The thumbnail shows the sixth logo from CITV (2003-06), and the logo history text uses the Bubbly font from Dafont (created December 2020).

This is my first video on the channel in 132 days.. the longest hiatus I've ever taken from uploading logo content (there was a similar hiatus from June to September 2019). As I wrote in my co..
