Pearlie is an animated comedy series based on the children's book series Pearlie the Park Fairy by Wendy Harmer. 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 6-10 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.

It's Academic showcases the brightest students from 81 area high schools - private, parochial, and public inner city and suburban. Using an exciting quiz format, these students compete to answer questions from all areas of the school curriculum: history, literature, geography, science and math. NBC4's Mac McGarry hosts the program. There are questions on music, arts and current events. Through It's Academic, the admiration and respect normally reserved for athletic heroes is extended to high school scholars and this helps create a pro-learning atmosphere in the schools, where academic excellence is encouraged. School systems in the Washington metropolitan area, recognizing that academic competition is a great motivating force, have established It's Academic clubs to extend the benefit of the competition to a far greater number of students than those who actually participate on the television program.

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.
