Community 3 (shortened to C-3) was a cable television network that was launched on December 1, 1977 as a part of QUBE, an experimental cable system created by Warner Communications. The only show C-3 carried was Pinwheel, a children's television show created by Vivian Horner. On April 1, 1979, C-3 was relaunched and expanded as Nickelodeon. Pinwheel continued airing on Nickelodeon until 1984.
On air and on guides during the time, C-3 was branded with the Pinwheel name and logo.
