Genie in the House

The programme itself is a little odd but will be greatly enjoyed by under 12s.

Considering the basis it has been put together special effects are not bad and the scripts are done simply enough to carry this off, particularly considering the audience it is designed for.

The episode with "Rascal" was quite funny and is a good example of the entire series.

Aside from this Katie Sheridan (Sophie Norton) is absolutely lovely and sparkles on screen.

I imagine she will have many dads glued to the TV and I hope to see a lot more of her on other programmes (TV Companies take note).

The show is OK, You can tell that it is a rather low budget show considering its quite obvious that the laughing is a sound track, It sounds the same every time! The problem is, is that the plot has been done so many times before...

So many times people have found a lamp and there's a genie inside, they wish and the wish "doesn't go to plan" Its a decent show, But eventually you are likely to get bored of the same similar plot lines...

I would say that this show is good for 7-11 year olds because of the simple plot lines.

I think that the lack of budget is the reason behind its poor ratings.

OK so I am 46 and shouldn't really be watching this but my kids turned it on and 'oh my gawd' was this show embarrassing. I have put up with crap like Saved By The Bell and Sabrina but this is the worst piece of television I have ever seen. My daughters school play (10 year olds) had better production and acting than this. As for the plot ... it must have come off the back of a Corn Flakes packet. Get this crap off now so that I don't feel like cancelling my Sky subscription in protest. What on earth were the production team and directors thinking about ? Are they honestly happy with this or is it just 'take the money and run' attitude. If it was me, I would run for my life !!

I think this show is perfect for the kids it's aimed at. My 2 love it. OK the story lines are a little contrived and the acting is rather huge but they think it's hilarious.

If you have kids under 12 and want them to watch something that will keep them entertained this is the show. It's not going to teach them anything but then what on Nickelodeon does these days!

The 2 girls, Sophie and Emma, are pretty and well mannered and there is usually a moral to the story in the end of each episode. The father, Philip, plays a bit of a "dorky dad" and the genie is always getting the girls into trouble, but is amusing and acts very well.

On the whole a nice piece of entertaining TV for the kids - gets my thumbs up!

I find this show is plenty interesting and comical , amusing especial for kids. Confident and high-quality work of actors, exclusive script will not leave you indifferent when viewing.
