Flying SquidTIL there are multiple episodes of Caillou where his behavior was so awful that PBS Kids has banned them from being re-aired.
TheTechnician27This list is just on a wiki with no sources, so unless the individual articles have that source, the source is as good as “I made it the fuck up”.
There are plenty of other articles talking about it. They just generally don’t list which episodes were banned or why.
For example:
Four early episodes of “Caillou” have been permanently banned from PBS Kids because the kid is such a demon seed: lying to his mother, tormenting the family cat, swatting his baby sister with a book. Even in later versions, where his bad behavior was toned down after criticism from parents, he’s thoughtless, selfish and impulsive.

The Detroit Free Press isn’t in the habit of making things up.
ChozoThanks for verifying that. Fandom has a documented history of pushing objectively false information, so it's reasonable for people to be skeptical of any unsourced posts on that site.
