Produced for Nickelodeon Israel, Spell Keepers, on offer from Keshet International, is a fantasy drama led by two female heroines who protect humankind from supernatural threats.

Spell Keepers is primarily for kids and teens, but if broadcasters are looking for shows that encourage co-viewership, we’ve found that this one is captivating the whole family because it has the high drama, romance and humor of an adult series,” says Nicola Andrews, the senior sales and commercial director for kids at Keshet International.

In The Greenhouse, a brother and sister enroll at an elite boarding school for gifted teens after their mother dies in a space-shuttle launch. “The storylines in The Greenhouse truly have international appeal for youth audiences,” says Andrews. Bed & Biscuit, meanwhile, takes place in a family-run dog kennel.

“While the big players are reducing their investment in kids’ programming, we see this as the perfect time to take advantage of the changing environment,” adds Andrews.
