Génial Génie

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.

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).

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 !!

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 think this is a charming show. I work in a junior school and many of the children are talking about it so I watched it! It is innocent fun, the girls are pretty, the genie is very appealing and Dad and Uncle Max are always good natured, even when trying to be cross!! The story-lines seem to cover a lot of childhood wishes, to be a dancer or a singer, to play tricks on their teachers, have pets that talk, to be fashion icons or simply to believe in magic. Children need this kind of 'fantasy' fun and I can quite see why so many of them are becoming fans. Obviously it is NOT aimed at adults or critics or whatever, but for goodness sake if you don't like it - watch the news! Let the kids BE kids and enjoy a bit of innocent make-believe fun.
