Supernanny Little Angels

Nanny 911 is an American reality television series that originally aired on Fox from November 3, 2004 to February 23, 2007 and on CMT from April 18 to June 6, 2009.

Premise

Nanny 911 is loosely based on the British television program Little Angels, in which American families with unmanageable children are reformed by British nannies, including one who served for the royal family.

The introduction features montages of several clips of unruly children (and the nannies' surprised reactions), whereupon stock footage shows a "call" being made to Nanny 911 where "Head Nanny Lilian" (Lilian Sperling, featured as "Nanny to the British Royal Family") answers "Hello, this is Nanny 911" (on an old rotary dial phone).

After the intro the selected family is featured on a separate clip. Head Nanny Lilian and the other nannies – "Nanny Deb" (Deborah Carroll), "Nanny Stella" (Stella Reid), and "Nanny Yvonne" (originally Yvonne Shove, later replaced by Yvonne Finnerty for unspecified reasons) discuss the clip, whereupon Lilian announces (based on the major need; each nanny specializes in one area, such as proper etiquette or controlling temper tantrums) which nanny will visit the family. The nannies are featured visiting the family in traditional nanny dress (similar to that worn by Mary Poppins).

The nanny's first day is spent solely in observing the family dynamics in order to determine a suitable plan of action for changing the children's behavior; at the end of the day the nanny discusses what needs to be done. The remainder of the week shows the plan being implemented, along with the parents' reactions (which can be quite negative, especially when the nanny mentions how the parents' actions have resulted in the problem). At the end of the week, the nanny generally compliments the family for the changed behavior. The last segment shows the family receiving a substantial gift from the nanny (such as a new car or a home renovation).

The families that are eligible for the show usually have four or more children and have multiples ie: triplets, twins, quadruplets (though some episodes show homes with fewer children and singletons), and the children are usually younger than 9 years of age (though also not always the case). The parents usually have an income that allows them to be upper middle-class.

After Season Two, the gift portion was removed. In Season Four, Nanny Yvonne did not appear due to budgetary reasons and the format changed. Rather than showing a clip to the nannies then deciding which one would go, Lillian just called one of them and sent them to the family. In some episodes this season, the nanny observes for two days rather than one.

Move to CMT

On February 27, 2008, Fox announced that it sold the rights to Nanny 911 (as well as its partnered Fox show, Trading Spouses) to CMT.

Speculations of Manufactured Content

Many children and parents from the show have personally came out and confirmed that the show is "fake".

• Katerina Finck said that they were told that if they wanted to get on TV, they had to make as much drama as possible. They were bribed with treats to make messes. One of the producers that worked on the Finck episode got fired after he told the eldest, Amanda to suffocate her little brother.
• Sal Amico said that every scene was orchestrated and that the they never went on a cruise ship as a reward. He actually went on to hate the show and feels "haunted" by it.
• Courtney King said that 90% of her and her siblings bad behaviors were TV acted and that her father Chris was never a verbally abusive chauvinist, it was scripted.
• Jacqueline Dickson said that some things were staged and dramatized for the episode but some things were common to daily life.
• Vicki Spaulding, a homeschooling mom, said that the boys were encouraged to fight and trash their playroom. The producers also let the bunnies out of their cages and lets the dog in the house during lessons. Owen also went on to say filming took a year long and that every family member had an assigned character to act.
• Sean and Adam Longairc said that they were told to misbehave and that Michelle is actually a good mother and that scenes were edited to make her look worse and that their dad was the bad one.
• Shasta Elgin's friends say that she isn't a bad or demon child in real life and that the episode is staged, edited and warped.
• The Giannetto kids said that they used all of the bad footage first and then used the good footage at the end.
• Giovanni Balsamo said that the episode was 99.9% fake and that the kids ages were a lie.

It is still unknown for sure if these claims are true or not.
