Hm, I wonder what this means for the network and their plans for their second upfront.

It looks they got rid of all those acquired programming shows like those three DreamWorks shows that was originally going to plan to air in 2019, But no, they had put on hold untill they announced it released dates, due to the sources page.

Not to be sure if the GM leaves, but the ratings have been dropped by 86,000 households while other show were available on Netflix, being the 123rd cable network like the now-defunct Chiller.

Also, Cox's Contour TV service (TV Essential) still had Universal Kids for 14 out of 32 markets. I lived at Omaha, and my Contour TV service (combined with TV Essential, Latino Pak, and Bonus Pak), and UK was not listed.

Here are the markets for the availability:
Contour TV (TV Essential) with UK
510- Cleveland Area (Channel 115)
511- Fairfax County Area (Channel 217)
511- Fredericksburg Area (Channel 217)
521- Rhode Island Area (Channel 185)
533- Manchester Area (Channel 185)
544- Hampton Roads Area (Channel 243)
573- Roanoke (Channel 360)
753- Phoenix Metro Area (Channel 182)
789- Tucson Area (Channel 182)
803- Orange County Area (Channel 342)
803- Palos Verdes Area (Channel 216)
825- San Diego Area South (Channel 348)
839- Las Vegas (Channel 355)
855- Santa Barbara Area (Channel 217)

622- New Orleans (Channel 350)
642- Acadiana (Channel 218)
650- Oklahoma City Area (Channel 149)
652- Omaha (Channel 254)
670- Fort Smith, Arkansas (Channel 167)
670- Northwest Arkansas (Channel 167)
671- Tulsa, OK (Channel 258)

Other Contour customers will add Variety Pak to Contour TV to receive UK.

Race to the Edge is more associated with Netflix than it is with Cartoon Network, though.

Maybe this will be an edited version without the interactive choices?

It's basically just an interactive YouTube game that was scrapped and was put on KidsClick instead.

Has this channel aired the movie, the BFG, before? It has aired on sister network SYFY before, and it's airing on Universal kids the 23rd at 3pmet and 8pmet.

According to Nickandmore website, Universal Kids is removing Caillou from the lineup, since they're losing the rights. Their schedule starting Monday has all of its timeslots replaced. The preschool series has been on the network since 2005 (when it was Sprout).
