Extraordinary

I had to write a review about this show. It's just so great. I love everything about it. I was waiting for a light comedy and that's what it is. The writing is so well done, all the characters are so well written. For once I live all the characters, also the actors are all great. Live to see new faces and these guys are just nailing it. The plot is very good and you might think it's a superhero/xmen stuff but not really. I love the feel too, the wardrobe is very colorful too.

The format is also nice, I wish it was a hour long but this is okay. Looking forward to more, sometimes new ideas Pay off and this one is one of them.

I have always liked Superhero movies that did not take the conventional approach to the genre. For example, kick ass, and the Watchmen were my favorites for some time, and despite people's hatred for it, I kind of dug Ironman 3. Extraordinary tells the story of a woman without superpowers in a world where everyone has superpowers. The superpowers are kind of irrelevant to the story, it's just the story of an unextraordinary person who does not know what her purpose is. It is full of very meaningful moments, and hilarity. There are very few things that I can watch by myself and laugh out loud and this is one of them. The actors are great, and the writing is superb.

This is the kind of comedy we Brits have excelled at for the last 40 years.

Set in a world where at 18 most people inherit a super power, we follow Jen, a 25 year old who still hasn't been granted her power.

There are some cool and original powers in the series. Jen's best friend can channel the dead, her mum has the power to control Tech but has no clue how modern gadgets work and we meet a man who can 3D print items from his arse, graffiti artists who can walk on walls and a woman trapped in the body of a teenage girl.

Although the main plot is following Jen as she tries to fit in and find her ability, the show is filled with brilliant characters and great sight gags.

Full of toilet humour and sure to offend many it's truly funny.

Let's just say it - there is no really a plot twist, or a plot at all but that's just doesn't matter.

It's just pure fun and laughs

You'll watch the show with constant smile on your face along with laugh out moments from time to time, and wow - every joke just land with perfect timing

Jenn is so fun to watch, brilliant actor - cool, beautiful, weirdo.

The other cast members are really great too, loved the vigilanties crew, there are really good comedy moments with those.

The world building is quite cool and quirky, similar vibes to the brilliant show misfits, but much funnier and more "open"

When Tim Kring's HEROES first appeared in 2007 -- about humans born with odd abilities -- it was a cultural milestone. Even late-night talk show hosts could not resist praising the series. That was then, this is now. Now shows about people with "powers" abound. This Disney UK release approaches the topic from the viewpoint of "coming of age," with notes of empathy, deadpan British humor, and overall sweetness. Good casting, good acting, and good scripts generally deliver the goods. Not an action series, not an adventure series, no werewolves or witches. Just people. Recommended.
