Tickle-U is a defunct weekday morning preschool programming block on Cartoon Network that featured preschool series that were a mix of acquired series from different studios, and is a successor to Big Bag and Small World. The block was created as competition for the preschool blocks Nick Jr. on Nickelodeon and Playhouse Disney on Disney Channel; however, unlike the previous two blocks, Tickle-U failed to make much of an impact and suffered from low ratings. The block premiered on August 22, 2005,[1][2] and was last seen on January 5, 2007. The block originally aired for two hours, before extending to four hours, and back to two hours before the block's dissolution. The block also aired on Cartoon Network's sister channel Boomerang[3]
