| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | ASTROBLAST, based on the book series by author and illustrator Bob Kolar, is set on a space station in an unknown solar system. Five animal characters and one three-eyed octopus of unknown derivation populate the station. Each episode begins with an everyday conversation or incident that grows into a predicament needing a solution. While these predicaments take place in a fantasy environment, the issues and resolutions resonate for a preschool audience. Through comedy and zippy action, our target audience sees how the characters learn lessons for practical living such as how to keep track of things that belong to you, practice good habits, clean up when you have made a mess, rebound from a failure or an embarrassing incident, or resist the urge to blame others for your mistakes. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | TERRIFIC TRUCKS is a live-action series that follows the exploits of five self-driving, heavy-duty construction trucks. They include Tork, the dump truck, Stotz, the flatbed, Dug, the digger, Blinker, the mini-digger, and Sparky, the front-end loader. The trucks reside in a fully-equipped truck yard/rock quarry and work as a team on various building projects that require planning, collaboration and implementation. Each truck brings specific skills and a distinct personality to the group. They get challenging job assignments from Mr. Bill Board, a digital outdoor screen that outlines and diagrams the problem to be solved. By allocating the role each truck will perform during the project, the group merges those unique skills to fulfill their respective assignments. Unexpected problems that could compromise their success-- such as the weather, broken truck parts, or personal conflicts between the trucks--- are addressed and overcome so the job can be completed. |

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. Chicas parents were formerly entertainers in the vaudeville tradition and they regale the audience with stories and songs from their theatrical past. They enjoy and indulge Chica, who sometimes acts younger than her age and gets into all kinds of predicaments. Kelly uses fantasy play to transform herself, Chica, Bunji, and Stitches into animated characters in another universe, who are struggling with a problem similar to the one Chica experienced in the Coop. Without fail, they find the problem can be solved and they carry that knowledge back to the Coop to use on another day. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | STATE TO STATE -- Americans are famously terrible about geography. The last Roper Geographic Literacy Poll (2006) showed only half of young Americans could identify New York State on a map. Less than that could find Ohio. Perhaps part of the problem was that there was no television program that entertained while educating about the nations states. There is now! STATE TO STATE from Bellum Entertainment blends maps, history and facts with eye-catching visuals and clever narratives that move quickly through some of the very interesting geography in our diverse country. |

On July 9, 2016, Astroblast left the schedule, and a new show, Terrific Trucks, made its premiere and remained on the schedule with the five other shows until September 24, 2016, the last Saturday of the quarter. Due to the Olympics and other sports programming, the NBC Kids line-up was preempted a total of forty two times during the quarter, however all shows were rescheduled in compliance with the Children's Television Act regulations. Please refer to the Digital Core Programming Summary for details of each show. Animal Exploration is normally considered Core programming; however, it was preempted seven times due to NBC Sports coverage . As a result it was not included in the calculation for total core hours. From July 2 to August 20, 2016, Antenna TV aired the same eight shows from the previous quarter; Animal Atlas, Safari Tracks, Coolest Places, State to State, Family Style, Animal Atlas, On the Spot and Safari Tracks. On August 27, 2016, Family Style left the schedule, and two new shows, Get Wild and Wild World, made their premiere and remained on the schedule with the six other shows until September 24, 2016, the last Saturday of the quarter. The line-up remained unchanged from 9-11am but programming changed from 11am-12:30pm -- an additional run of On the Spot and The Coolest Places were added at 11am and 11:30am; Get Wild and Wild World ran at 12pm and 12:30pm. All ten shows were developed specifically for a target audience composed of children ages 13-16. |
