He combines the serious science of everyday things with fast-paced action and humor. Most half-hour episodes contain a mock song parody and music video in the Soundtrack of Science by Not That Bad Records. Not that bad is a catchphrase that Nye will often say in those episodes, substituting a scientific roundup of the episode for the lyrics to a popular song. |

| 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. | During the Third Quarter of 2018, WVTM-TV scheduled 13 Teen Kids News Special Edition episodes of the regularly scheduled core children's program Teen Kids News. These aired in back-to-back time slots, to create a "mini-marathon" of the program on July 8, August 12, August 19, August 26 and September 6. These mini-marathons aired outside of the "second home" time slots to help promote the audience awareness of the program and further educate and inform the teen audience of important news stories in the Third Quarter of 2018. These additional core episodes were promoted via on-air crawls, and the television listing services were notified in advance of their scheduling. One or more episodes of children's programming that was preempted during the quarter was not rescheduled. The Digital Core Programming Summary section of this report would not permit the station to include preemption reports for such unrescheduled preemptions, and FCC Staff has advised that no preemption report for such unrescheduled episodes is necessary. On September 1, 2018, core programs The Champion Within, The Voyager with Josh Garcia, Wilderness Vet, Journey with Dylan Dreyer, Naturally, Danny Seo and Health & Happiness were preempted from their regularly scheduled times starting at 8:30AM until 11:30AM to air breaking news coverage of the funeral proceedings of American hero and Senator John McCain. The late-breaking nature of his passing and scheduling of his funeral service were beyond the control of the station and made it impracticable for the station to reschedule The Champion Within, The Voyager with Josh Garcia, Wilderness Vet, Journey with Dylan Dreyer, Naturally, Danny Seo and Health & Happiness. |
