Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. KRDO-TV is affiliated with Telemundo (NRDO) and digital platform channel 13.3 (QRDO) . One or more episodes of children's programming that was pre-empted during the quarter was not rescheduled. The Digital Core Programming Summary section of this report would not permit the station to include pre-emptions reports for unscheduled pre-emptions, and the FCC Staff has advised that no pre-emption report for unrescheduled episodes is necessary. All programs on the KRDO ABC channel were preempted due to sports on 12/31/2016 and recovered in the second home on 1/1/2017; however, as the station took credit for 12/31/2016 airings in Q4, the station has not reported or taken credit for these rescheduled episodes in Q1.

The shops one employee, Kelly, doubles as Chicas nanny and the ensemble is rounded out with Bunji, a large floppy eared rabbit, and Stitches, a straw mannequin that sits in the window. In each episode Chica develops or encounters a problem that she cannot immediately resolve. Usually her issues involve impulse control, distractibility, judgment, and inter-personal behaviors. She and Kelly usually work on the problem through an adventure, a fantasy transformation to animation, where Bunji and Stitches come alive and join Chica and Kelly for the problem solving process. The core educational content is primarily socio-emotional development as Chica learns how to express herself properly, think before she acts, and interact with others effectively. She often learns that it takes hard work and practice to become proficient at different skills.
