| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | "On The Spot" is a wild and lively game show unlike anything else on television. The cast is put on stage with half of a script, leaving room for clever ad-libs and any other games that may get thrown their direction. Also, there is a bell that is sounded off at random intervals, requiring the actor that spoke last to create a brand new line, right there . . . on the spot. The show uses an entertaining on-the-street format to test how well young people know the information contained in their own national curriculum. Then, On the Spot explains the answer to each question. On the Spot challenges viewers to recall middle and high school knowledge about history, science, math, English, second languages, health, geography, art, music, and technology, and then teaches them the answer. |

Pearlie is an optimistic, light-hearted fairy who sees the good in everybody, but often gets into situations because her desire to help is larger than her capacity to deliver. Aimed for an audience within the 4-8 year old range, Pearlie focuses on the importance of following the rules, using good judgment and learning how to avoid getting into trouble. Since Pearlie was appointed by Fairy Head Quarters (HQ) to keep jubilee Park in sparkling order she has constant challenges with her basic goal of keeping everyone happy and making sure the park functions smoothly. Pearlie's nemesis and cousin Saphira, often takes advantage of Pearlie's good nature which requires that Pearlie must also frequently outwit the park bully. In each episode, we see Pearlie approach new tasks and problems with a great deal of enthusiasm, but without the organization required to get the job done. Through plot developments and with the assistance of her friends, Opal and Jasper, she learns what to do and what not to do in each situation so the park can be restored to order. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | "On The Spot" is a wild and lively game show unlike anything else on television. The cast is put on stage with half of a script, leaving room for clever ad-libs and any other games that may get thrown their direction. Also, there is a bell that is sounded off at random intervals, requiring the actor that spoke last to create a brand new line, right there . . . on the spot. The show uses an entertaining on-the-street format to test how well young people know the information contained in their own national curriculum. Then, On the Spot explains the answer to each question. On the Spot challenges viewers to recall middle and high school knowledge about history, science, math, English, second languages, health, geography, art, music, and technology, and then teaches them the answer. |
