A FAMILY LIVING THE AMERICAN DREAM ACTUALLY HAS TWIN TERRORS WHO MAKE HOME LIFE A NIGHTMARE, ON ABC�S �SUPERNANNY�

�Keilen Family� � Tami and Shaun Keilen are living the American dream. This former Navy SEAL and his beautiful wife have a successful family business and four gorgeous children. However, this dream becomes a nightmare when the parents return home from work, as four-year-old twin terrors Maile and Malia run roughshod over Shaun and Tami. Well-behaved big sister Haeley (six) and docile baby brother Leighton (one) are lost in the shuffle, as the twins habitually take three entire hours to get dressed, screaming all the while. Tami devotes much of her home time to compulsively housekeeping, and Shaun, who can face any military challenge, can�t hold his ground to the demanding twins. Even Supernanny concedes that, in this house, if she wants to talk to the head of the family, she�ll turn to Maile. Can Mom and Dad regain control and find harmony with their brood? �Supernanny� airs MONDAY, JULY 17 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. (Rebroadcast. OAD 11/11/05)

Hailed by the New York Times as �fascinating� and �required viewing;� praised by Oprah Winfrey, David Letterman and Kelly Ripa; acclaimed by such publications as Newsweek, Hollywood Reporter and The New Yorker; and lauded by parents and nannies across America, �Supernanny� is a hit. Jo Frost, as Supernanny, can tame the wildest toddler, soothe the savage six-year-old and get the most difficult child to overcome problems with behavior, sleep, mealtime, potty training and other challenges that have vexed parents around the world for centuries. After just three episodes of the show aired in the U.K. in summer 2004, Jo Frost became Britain�s hottest new TV star and godsend to desperate parents who were dazzled by her amazing results with misbehaving children. She debuted in America in early 2005 and captivated Americans as well with her practical, no-nonsense style, honed over 16 years of nannying. �Supernanny� is now an international phenomenon; it airs in 47 countries, almost all of them with Frost as Supernanny. Her book, Supernanny: How to Get the Best from Your Children, was a No. 1 New York Times bestseller.

On the show, Jo observes how the parents handle their day-to-day obstacles with their children. Once she�s assessed the pitfalls, she works with the parents, instilling her tried-and-true methods for transforming unwanted behavior. Then, after demonstrating just how well the new style will work and getting unbelievable results from the children, the parents must fly solo with the Supernanny techniques. For several days they try to implement Jo�s suggestions, and she revisits them at the end of the program to help keep them on track for the future. When parents witness Jo�s results and -- even better -- achieve them on their own, they are truly believers in the Supernanny way. Best of all, children and adults alike can enjoy the lasting benefits of a more harmonious family life.

Nick Powell is the creator and executive producer of both the American and British versions of the show. Craig Armstrong is executive producer and Tony Yates the co-executive producer, of the American version. �Supernanny� is produced by Ricochet, Ltd.

�Supernanny� is broadcast with Spanish subtitles via secondary closed captioning. This program carries a TV-PG,L parental guideline.
