The Playlist is a British children's music entertainment series produced by Strawberry Blond TV for CBBC and began on 22 April 2017. Each week has a different presenter with Greg James presenting the UK Singles Chart Top 10 segment, the first presenters were Pixie Lott and Anton Powers. It is a replacement for the CBBC Official Chart Show, which ended in February 2017.
Each week, on the CBBC website, there are 10 different songs, and the user has three votes. They can be used all on one song, or they can vote for two or three songs. In the weeks leading up to more recent episodes, users only have one vote, therefore making it harder to choose. The three songs with the most votes are played on The Playlist. The user can also comment on songs and why they voted for them, either by uploading a short video or by leaving a comment on the CBBC website. The comments, as well as facts about the artist/artists, are displayed whilst a song is being played. Each week, BBC Radio 1 DJ Greg James also presents the UK Singles Chart Top 10 whilst playing short extracts from each song. Inbetween these main segments, there are also games, and chat with the hosts.
After the CBBC Official Chart Show ended in February 2017 after almost two years and 69 episodes, it was announced that the executive producer of the CBBC Official Chart Show was setting up his own independent production company, Strawberry Blond TV and CBBC was expected to return to the live music genre.
According to the Broadcast magazine, The Playlist will be incorporated into CBBC's new live Saturday morning TV series Live & Dangerous, which will begin in September 2017.
