Kinderen geen bezwaar
Kinderen geen bezwaar is a Dutch sitcom, developed by the VARA and written by Haye van der Heyden. The first episode aired on Nederland 1 on 25 September 2004, replacing the popular series Oppassen!!!.[1] After the ninth season, which was scheduled to air in January 2013, the series was not renewed. This is the result of a recurring discussion whether Dutch public television should provide comedy or not.[2] The last six episodes were filmed from 29 May till 7 July 2012.[3][4] Repeats of Kinderen geen bezwaar attracted audiences of more than one million people.[2][5]

Premise
Gerard van Doorn (Alfred van den Heuvel) and Maud Zegers (Anne-Mieke Ruyten) are a married couple. They met each other through a personal advertisement (hence the title, Kinderen geen bezwaar, which translates to Children no objection). They live with two children from previous marriages: Gerard's son Daan (Joey van der Velden) and Maud's daughter Julia (Céline Purcell). Maud works as a psychotherapist and Gerard is a homemaker.[6] As such, Gerard doesn't fit the stereotypical profile of Dutch men and Maud often ridicules him for being unmanly.
