''Genie in the House'' is a British sitcom broadcast on Nickelodeon UK about a widowed father (Philip) with two teenage daughters (Emma and Sophie) who find a dusty old golden lamp while exploring the loft of their new home. A quick rub of the lamp releases Adil, a trainee genie from Balamkadaar who has been confined to life in the lamp for 1000 years. Philip has banned any use of magic in the house, yet the girls and Adil the Genie find ways to get themselves into trouble using Adil's wish granting powers. The show ran for four seasons from May 2006 to December 2010. As of March 2012, ''Genie in the House'' is now airing on the Starz Kids & Family cable network. A theatrical movie was also planned for release in 2014, but after spending over three years in development hell, was cancelled. The official website of the series has also been shut down. ==Production== The show is based on an original idea — the collective work of Phil Ox (AKA Philippe Nguyen, a French producer renowned for not paying his writers, cast or directors for any of their work), Steven Bawol (an American director who said he wanted to make England the 'New America'), Isabelle Dubernet and Eric Führer — and is a French/English co-production, produced in English by French company ''Moi j'aime la'' television. At one point, ''You Wish!'' was considered as a working title, and was used for the pilot show, but it was discovered that there had been an American sitcom, ''You Wish'', with the same name, so ''Genie in the House'' was chosen instead. The show's theme song was written especially for the show, with music by Jean de Aguiar and lyrics by Kevin Eldon. It is sung by Vicky Longley and Katie Sheridan, the actresses who play Emma and Sophie in the show. Series 1 was recorded at Elstree Film and Television Studios in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire and was first aired on 29 May 2006. It is currently being repeated on Nickelodeon in the UK. Series 2 started recording at the BBC Elstree Centre in Borehamwood on 29 June 2007, for broadcast in October 2007. The show has been sold, sometimes in dubbed form, to Turkey, France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Russia, Ukraine, India, The Netherlands and Germany. Filming for the third and final series took place at Twickenham Film Studios, London and began in June 2008 ending with a 3 part story 'The Legend of The Dragon', filmed on location in Paris and the surrounding countryside. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Genie in the House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
