Cute. You're getting to be quite the authority on children's programs.

after initial ll:

no matter where the first 1 clue in r2 goes (either c1 or c2) r1c1 is always a dot
lots of ll
of the 2 empty squares in r5c5 and r5c6, one must be a black and the other must be a dot, in some order
no matter where the first dot in r5 goes, the 2 clue in r12 always will be placed in c5-6
ll to finish
no guessing

Thanks, Bug. I spent a bit of time on it, but couldn't place c12 and couldn't take more time. I'll revisit it tomorrow.

I see the faces but not the appliances. Had to guess 3 times.
