CBS All Access launches new family features, expands kids programming

Friday 11 December 2020 | 09:09 CET | News

CBS Interactive's streaming video service CBS All Access launched new family features and expanded its kids programming. Parents can now create up to six profiles per account and manage each profile using Kids Mode, which allows the creation of profiles that limit content to older children or younger children based on content ratings. 

The service's existing parental PIN controls option for mature content, which locks access to certain content based on its content rating, will also still be available to use across profiles. 

In addition, CBS All Access introduced nearly 800 more episodes of children's programming to the service, including selected past seasons of Nick Jr. series Paw Patrol, Blaze and the Monsters Machines, Blue's Clues, Bubble Guppies, Dora the Explorer, and Shimmer and Shine. 

All CBS All Access children's programming is available commercial-free. The new library content being added to the service joins a roster of over 1,000 episodes of library and original children's programming, including the service's previously launched original children's series, WildBrain's Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, Boat Rocker's new Danger Mouse, and new editions of Lassie, George of the Jungle, and Mr. Magoo from DreamWorks Animation's Classic Media. 

Original children's programming on the service will continue to expand with the first spinoff from one of ViacomCBS's biggest global franchises ever, Nickelodeon's SpongeBob SquarePants, when the new series Kamp Koral premieres in early 2021. 

The service will also be the exclusive home to The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run, the upcoming feature film that follows SpongeBob SquarePants, his best friend Patrick Star, and the rest of the gang from Bikini Bottom in the first CGI SpongeBob motion picture event.
