This is so nostalgic for me. I grew up watching PBS Kids in the early 2000s when I was a toddler. Such relaxing times watching PBS at 3 years old. I can't believe I remember being that young. I turn 23 years old this year.
As for the PBS 2002 rebrand (done by none other than PMcD Design), only the “PBS Digital Presentation” ID from 1998 remained until they replaced it around 2007.
