Genie in the House

Can Nickeloden please cease bothering trying to make British programmes for the channel. Renford Rejects, Laugh Out Loud and now this, all of them are absolutely horrendous.

The acting in this programme is extremely poor, the story lines are poor, and for British actors (looked it up) what the hell are the accents really about? Do we really sound like that, heaven forbid.

Absolute rubbish. Up against the American programming, it is absolutely embarrassing. Please, Nicelodeon, please stop making a fool out of this nation with such abysmal programming.

I don't even get the setting. Is it based in England? Where did the genie come from?

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).

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!

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.

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.
