Shimmer and Shine: Genie Tales

Shimmer and Shine: Genie Tales is a conceptualized spin-off of Shimmer and Shine featuring the 2 tituliar Genies-in-Training as the main stars of the show. It broadcasts on Nickelodeon in the United States.

The show follows the adventures of the twin Genies-in-Training who travels around the magical genie land of Zahramay Falls and gets themselves into some mischief, yet they usually do something that is weird and cartoony.

Unlike the original show, Shimmer and Shine: Genie Tales features a much more comedic take. This spin-off is also a call back to the events that the Genies-in-Training has caused during Leah's absence also during the first season of the show. This also gives the viewers an idea of what the genies does in their homeworld without Leah and Zac tagging along with them (much like the other conceptualized spin-off Leah & Zac, only a little bit different, humor wise).


 * Shimmer - A Genie-in-Training who is a sweet, loveable ball of energy, and she is always looking for ways to maximize the fun.  She's bright, cheerful, giggly, and an eternally optimistic dreamer.  Always having the time of her life, Shimmer loves nothing more than doing what she's doing at any given moment.  She's also Shine's twin sister, and her favorite color is pink.


 * Shine - A courageous genie who's sassy, confident, bold, and witty.  Shine has plenty of words of wisdom...  that she makes up on the spot, of course.  She cannot be tied down by seriousness, formalities, or etiquette, but the one thing that makes Shine melt is animals, especially her pet tiger, Nahal.  She's also Shimmer's twin sister, and her favorite color is blue.


 * Tala and Nahal - Shimmer and Shine's pets. Tala is a mischievous gibbon monkey who is a sweet, playful goofball, and likes to climb all over Shimmer and sit on her shoulders,  and Nahal is a cautious white Bengal tiger cub who likes to pounce on whatever strikes her fancy.


 * Princess Samira - A kind, generous, and the most powerful genie in Zahramay Falls, and of course, she is the main ruler of the land and is Shimmer and Shine's teacher at Genie School.  She's a mentor to them and all the other Genies-in-Training in the land, awarding Genie Gems to grant her new magical powers to those genies that earns them.  Shimmer and Shine look up to Princess Samira because she believes in friendship and is always available when they need her help.


 * Roya - Princess Samira's pet peacock who always looks elegant and regal.  Despite her sweet appearence, Roya shares a rivalry with Tala and Nahal.  Unlike Shimmer and Shine's pets, Roya would rather much show off her feathers or practice walking gracefully rather than play or dance.


 * Empress Caliana - Princess Samira's famous, semi-retired mentor.  Caliana is known throughout Zahramay Falls for discovering a network of crystals that soak up wish magic.


 * Zeta - Princess Samira's rival and the main antagonist who will do anything to become the powerful person in Zahramay Falls in hopes to taking over the land.  However, she is not very skill at being evil, and is always getting her plans thwarted by the genies.  Zeta hates being called a genie and is quick to correct people who mistake her for one.  Her plans are always thwarted by Shimmer and Shine, and sometimes even her own ignorance can ruin her plans, too.


 * Nazboo - Zeta's clumsy yet well-meaning pet dragon who gets treated like he's her servant.  Nazboo's clumsiness and goofy behavior can cause Zeta's plans to fail by accident.  Despite being Zeta's pet dragon, he has good relations with the other main characters.


 * Razboo, Kazboo, and Frank - Three of Nazboo's siblings.  Razboo is Nazboo's sister, while Kazboo and Frank are his brothers.  They all love to mess around and get into some mischievous situations, and also loves cookies and tummy rubs because it runs in the Nazboo family.


 * Gigi - Zeta's older sister and a shy person who cares a lot about others around her.  She usually places her hands behind her back and talks in a calm way.  However, despite being older than Zeta, Gigi is much rather shorter than her, and she sometimes gets mistaken for the younger sister of the sorceress.  Much to her luck, Gigi is always willing to correct those who makes that mistake.


 * Kaz - A long-time friend of Shimmer and Shine who is easily-frightened and usually rather up-tight.  He's also a Genie-in-Training, too.  Of course, little does Shimmer know that he has a crush on her yet he cannot tell her until the right moment.


 * Shaya - One of Princess Samira's students who can't figure out how to use his lightning powers correctly.  He's also a good friend of Shimmer and Shine, despite him flirting with the two sometimes.  Fortunately for them, the genies don't like him that way.


 * Imma - Imma is the waterfall genie who lives in Rainbow Zahramay and controls the rainbow waterfall that flows through the entire town. She owns a staff that has the power to open and close the Rainbow Gates. She is very protective of her staff and talks to it like it is a person. Much like with Mara and Rubi, She visits Zahramay Falls every day to see Shimmer and Shine.


 * Mara - Mara is a Surfing Genie-In-Training who loves surfing the skies for a living. She is cool, beautiful, caring, and amazing on what she does. Just like Imma and Rubi, she also visits Zahramay Falls to see Shimmer and Shine on a daily basis.


 * Rubi - Rubi is a Rainbow Genie-in-Training who lives in Zahramay Skies and loves to make rainbows with her magic wand. Just like Imma and Mara, she visits Shimmer and Shine's palace at Zahramay Falls every single day.


 * Ezri - A dream Genie-in-Training that Shine has a secret crush on.


 * Kyzer - An autistic Genie-in-Training and Zyra's little tagalong.  He has the audacity to act incredibly goofy most of the time, and he's an excellent singer.  Kyzer is always aware of Zeta's various schemes and usually alarms the genie girls about the said scheme before it even happens.  He also loves genieburgers as they are his most favorite food to eat.


 * Raba - Shimmer and Shine's mother that is usually the cook of the Aljunni family.  She's also the type of mother that the genies looks up to sometimes in case they get into some trouble.


 * Najiv - Shimmer and Shine's father who works as a doctor at the Zahramay Falls Medical Center.  Najiv has plenty of medical experiences in Zahramay Falls, even if they're more extreme than expected, but fortunately, he pulls through and helps get the job done as the doctor that he is.


 * Amethyst and Glimmer - Shimmer and Shine's aunts that can sometimes get a little too attached to the genies when visiting them.  They're also the sisters of Shimmer and Shine's mother, Raba.


 * Jade - The older sister of Shimmer and Shine.


 * Emerald - Shimmer and Shine's baby sister who can get into some trouble at times.


 * Dalia - A genie who works as a Magic Carpet vendor and designer in Zahramay Falls whom Shimmer looks up to. In addition to her stall in the marketplace, she has a workshop where she grows magic thread and weaves magic carpets using a Glitter Loom and her Weaving Wand.  Dalia makes many carpets for all the genies by using a variety of different threads, and she can fix the carpets when they're torn and/or damaged by what costs, too.


 * Zyra - An apprentice genie to Princess Samira whom she shares things in common with.  She usually tags along with Kyzer for adventures with the genies.


 * Joel - A cleaner genie in Zahramay Falls who the genies looks up to for when they want to get their flying carpet cleaned.
