The Kingdom of Paramithi

The Kingdom of Paramithi is an Australian children's television series first screened on the Nine Network on 10 November 2008. The series is created by The Wiggles and Nickelodeon, with 30 half-hour episodes for pre-school children.

The Kingdom of Paramithi is a fairy tale series with stories, songs and dance. Paramithi is a Greek word for fairy tale. The series has been created by Anthony Field and Paul Field, written by Paul Field and Paul Paddick and developed with the experience of The Wiggles production team.

The program later aired on Nick Jr. in December 2008 and ABC2 (via Wiggly Waffle) on May 2, 2011. The program also aired internationally on the ATV World channel in Hong Kong.

Almost all of the songs featured in the series are adaptational parodies of musical numbers from many famous Gilbert and Sullivan comic operas, with the remaining exception of the soundtrack being derived from famous pieces of music of the classical period. An album would eventually be released in 2009, which included many of the songs from The Kingdom of Paramithi.

The Kingdom of Paramithi was released on DVD in 2009 by Roadshow Entertainment. Other DVDs released include All Time Favourite Fairytales (2009), Tales of Enchantment (2010) and Cinderella Pantomime, a live video special (2011).
