| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | Come spend a day in the life with the monsters at Wimzie's house and you'll never want to go home. It's the magical kind of daycare that leads to delightful adventures for the pre-school child. All of the characters are wild and wooly on the outside - but definitely human on the inside. After spending a half hour in this very special home away from home, no one will leave the world of Wimzie unchanged. It is the world where the real and the imaginary come together, where self esteem is the order of the day, where the emotions and the relationships of today's preschoolers, who are growing up to be ten in the year 2000, are on the top of the list of story material. Five year old Wimzie and her mother Graziella, an airline pilot, live in Yaya's house as does Russo, Yaya's best friend - even if Yaya is at least one hundred and fifty years old (and counting) and Russo is much more than a hundred years her younger. Graziella is more than ecstatic to have found a warm and comfortable home as well as a loving environment for her daughter, Wimzie, while she is off on her somewhat unorthodox work schedule flying around the world. It is within this setting that we meet Jonas, Archibald, Loulou, Horace, and Azuline as they work out the relationships that grow out of being together every day, of growing up just a little bit every day. They learn not only about themselves but also about the world outside the door: music, nature, art and fun are woven with a touch of humor throughout a storyline solidly crafted on socio-affective objectives. Music, songs, the art of discovery. Rhymes, magic, the sharing of secrets with friends. Storytime, word games, the acceptance of "your" way. This is what Wimzie brings into the viewers' home. A daycare full of little monsters - what could be more real? Conflict, difficulty, resolution, triumph. Laughter, tears, anger and joy. Wimzie is a world of enchantment. Wimzie's House aired on the secondary digital stream 27.3. |

| 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. | Fox airs on 27.1, ThisTv airs on 27.2, and MeTV airs on 27.3. Explanation of Response to Question Number 8(b) On page 2, item 8(b), Form 398 asks for "the average number of hours per week of Core Programming broadcast by the station on other than its main program stream." The following is an explanation of how Lingard Broadcasting Corporation obtained the number furnished in response to that question. The question does not take into consideration how many other digital program streams on which the station broadcasts. This is significant because depending upon the number of such other digital program streams the resultant number might be furnished as the average number of hours per week of each such additional stream combined as an average of the total number of such streams. Alternatively, and following the language of the question literally, it appears that the intent is to find the total number of hours per week of such programming on all digital streams other than the main program stream, provided as a weekly average. That is what the licensee has done in this case. The instructions to the form do not address this point. As a result, Lingard Broadcasting Corporation has calculated the total number of hours of Core Programming broadcast on Channel 27.2 as 78. Similarly, it calculated the total number of hours of Core Programming broadcast on Channel 27.3 as 84.5. Adding the two together, results in a combined total of 162.5 hours of Core Programming broadcast on Channels 27.2 and 27.3. When that number is divided by the number of weeks in the quarter (13), the resulting number is 12.50 hours. |
