While this show is slightly better than some other modern Nick shows like Henry Danger or Game Shakers, this one is hard to describe. The characters are fine, but nothing special. The stories aren't that interesting, but can be fun occasionally. The comedy feels hit or miss for the most part. The show does have its times where it's annoying, but there are times where the show is funny.
The show is just ok. While I do understand why others don't like it, I do think it's one of the few better shows from Nickelodeon 2014; however, it isn't much of anything. The show did progressed to be a bit more interesting, but it's more of the same. Kids can watch this fine, and they can get a good laugh once in a while. It's a decent show, but it's nothing special .

Who gives a 1* review based on bad jokes? It's a kids show and the jokes are really funny for kids.
It is just typical American junk but it is really good at what it is trying to be and that is good cheeky humour for kids with a feel good vibe.
I prefer them watching this to some of the other stuff they watch.

Jack's back must be hurting for carrying this show. But it's not as good as I remembered. It's basically lab rats but lab rats was so much better. I never noticed how bad and unoriginal phoebe was as a character. She is so selfish and nosy in every episode.
The dad is a typical eats every food possible dad that's in every single show. The mom isn't that bad of a character but it's obvious the kids run her.
Nora is absolutely the worst character on the show. She can't act and is basically snobby like every other little girl character on the shows. Her and Billy are on the sub-plot most of the time in the series and Chile adds nothing to the show.
Max carries the show.

An abnormal family with superpowers and kids that have a bad behavior, watching their adventures. Most of the episodes are super-silly, super-boring and the jokes are pretty bad. All the kids are terrible actors, except for Kira Kosarin (Phoebe) who is talented and really pretty and I love watching her (I'm a guy). The most silly things are: the talking evil bunny and the 5th kid that appeared later and grew up fast. Other than that, some episodes can be interesting, but they are very few...

Its good for a Nick show
It has a good humor sometimes but what concerns me more is Billy, sometimes I pity the guy and I know this is all acting, but seriously the way they portray him is beyond horrendous, Nick should stop putting stereotypes on characters and they should start developing them.

It's okay far better than even some prime time programming on the major networks & made with some heart which comes across viewing.

Nick, please stop. Stop trying to come up with a next big hit because it is never going to happen again. Admit it you are going down the drain. You guys canceled all of your hit TV shows. Like my favorite 2 Nick shows, Victorious and iCarly (I know it wasn't canceled. Even big time rush. Then you come up with these terrible replacement "TV shows" like this one. First of all where do these actors come from? No one even knows who they are. Plus they try to hard to be funny even though they are nothing close to funny. They are plain out annoying.
To narrow it all down, don't even watch this show. It's just another terrible excuse for a comedy TV Show.

The Thunderman's doesn't pretend to be allegory or high art, it is what it is, a whimsical, cartoony half hour of fun. It successfully combines the family sitcom with the Superhero genre and creates a happy middle ground that has the requisite absurdity of a teen/preteen sitcom. The basic idea is simple, a superhero family, much like the family in the 'incredibles,' right down to the young boy who's superpower is speed, retire to the suburbs.
The main protagonists are the Twins: Phoebe and Max. Good girl Phoebe is being prepped to enroll in Superhero U, while Max the black sheep of the family has plans to be a Supervillain.
Max even has his own secret lair( the basement ) and a sidekick, Dr Colossus, who once was his fathers arch enemy but somehow has been turned into a cute little Bunny and steals most of the scenes he's in.
All of the characters are stereotypical, in the usual sitcom way, augmented with super powers which gives the show its edge, as does the idea that Hank may be the typical ineffectual TV Dad but at the same time use to be a guy who was out saving the world.
The show doesn't pretend to make sense, after all a dad who can fly( with no Plane or nothing ) to Bangkok for some real Thai takeout dinner isn't supposed to make sense, so a fantasy aspect is baked into the cake.
11 year old billy is a bit naive while his younger sister Nora is the typical Nick/Disney little girl who is much wiser then her years. She can shoot lasers out of her eyes, which of the five Thunderman is probably the least power, but she makes up for it, with her boldness. When she and Billy team up, she's the brains and he's the Muscle, which is fine with Billy.
The Stories don't pretend to be life lessons, it's the typical Nick/Disney fast paced tween thing. A breezy half hour, in the usual 2 story format.
Max is hardly Supervillian material, he loves his family too much to be truly evil. It seems to be a phase he is going through.
The true stand out is kira, she lights up every scene she's in.
The show is light and breezy and never makes the mistake of getting too heavy. It's a quick paced half hour of cute entertainment full of uncomplicated humor . People who don't like it probably don't like puppies, Kittens or ice cream either.

Back when I was a kid, kid's shows were actually quality shows. They had enough content to keep kids entertained, along with a few subtle jokes to entertain adults thrown in.
My little brother and sister watch this "comedy" called The Thundermans. Oh boy, how I wish they'd read instead.
First off, the writing quality in this show is nothing but poor. There's not even any sort of smart humor in this. The only thing as far as a joke goes is someone saying something really loud, or someone falling over something. There are no quality jokes, no witty punchlines or quirky characters. Just a bunch of people talking LOUDER THAN NECESSARY.
Secondly, the acting. The acting is atrocious, it's like they grabbed random kids touring the studio and asked them to sign a contract. Seriously, how much do they get paid a show? Free admission to six flags, a happy meal and $50 spending money?
Finally, the laugh track. OH the laugh track. Literally every 5 seconds of the show is that God-forsaken laughtrack. Someone walks really fast? Laughtrack. Someone shouts a random word? Laughtrack. Someone says something stupid (intentional or not)? Laughtrack. Someone says their name? Laughtrack. The bell at school rings? Laughtrack. I'd hate to see how this show would go if an episode took place at a funeral.
Bottom line, if you want a quality kids show this definitely isn't it. And it's not really fair to point out this specific show it's almost EVERY kids show nowadays. We wonder why our generations are becoming less and less intelligent? It's these stupid kids shows!
Stick with Looney Tunes, or 90's Nickelodeon. Save your children while you can.

Nickelodeon keeps pumping out these awful sitcoms. How many times on these kids shows have we seen family or main character has to keep a secret. We've seen it already on That's So Raven, Dog With a Blog, Hannah Montana, Henry Danger, KC Undercover. This concept is way overused. This is just a rip off of the The Incredibles. A family of superheros trying to live a normal life. Wow... how original.
Max is the only cool character on the show.
Phoebe is super annoying, whiny, and unlikable. A bland goody two shoes who's smart. Yawn... And Kira Kosarin chews the scenery and obnoxiously overacts. She has dumb blonde sidekick friend named Cherry.
The youngest two kids are HORRIBLE actors. Nora is such a terrible character. Very obnoxious and not cute. And I want to rip that stupid giant bow out her hair. Billy is the tiresome idiot character. And why are they sharing a bedroom and hanging out together 24/7. Very creepy. Neither seem to have any friends of their own.
The parents are also weak characters.
No growth or character development at all for any of the characters.
Oh, and they pulled a Cousin Oliver and unnecessarily added a baby/little sister Chloe who adds nothing to show. Shes just there to say cute one liners. She doesn't fit in with the show. Pointless character!
Don't get me started on the offensively racist angry Asian stereotype that is the Ms. Wong character.

The Thundermans (2013-2018) is a Nickelodeon sitcom I used to watch a lot as a kid and it was fun. Now as an adult, the show is just okay enough.
Positives for The Thundermans (2013-2018): The best thing about this show is the cast that includes Kira Kosarin, Jack Griffo, Addison Riecke, Diego Velazquez, Chris Tallman, Rosa Blasi and Maya Le Clark. They work well enough as a family unit and their comedic timing is very good for what they had to work with in the show. The fight scenes are fun enough with some hilarious special effects. I like the variety of villains and their unique powers. And finally, this is one of those shows where you need to turn your brain off to enjoy it.
Negatives for The Thundermans (2013-2018): There is some humor that hasn't aged so well and it's not for the reasons that some people might be thinking because he who shall not be named don't create this show. This is one of those Nickelodeon sitcoms where they just don't write good humor all the time. I don't think Nickelodeon is that good at creating sitcoms for kids. And finally, this show is a discount version of Pixar's The Incredibles (2004).
Overally, The Thundermans (2013-2018) is an acceptable enough Nickelodeon sitcom thanks to the charm of the cast, but it didn't blow me away.

This is a nice entertaining series to watch. I thoroughly enjoyed watching. The cast selection was good. There was some room for improvement for the crew to create the series better. This series reveals and teaches viewers the aspects of growing up and building a life. It also reveals to viewers strength and courage that it takes to do anything in life. There were some characters that I was not a fan of. The storyline of the whole series reveals a real insight on the reality of life and what needs to be done to balance multiple things. As for me, there a few less things than others to balance. This is a good series for viewers to watch.

The TV-Show "The Thunderman reminds me on the good old days of Nickelodeon, when the program was full of shows like "The penguins of Madagascar", "The Big Time Rush" or "Victorious".
The show has the typical Nick-gene and that makes it great, the plot is easy and doesn't shifts too much out of topic, even through Max and Phoebe are superheroes, to 99% they have to deal with average teenage-stuff, like family, school and friends.
I absolutely like that Nickelodeon has filmed a lot of scenes outside of the home of the Thundermans (School, Shopping-mall etc.).
I have to add that I only commend this fact as positive because the new Nick-show completely ignore this!
Also positive is the performance of the actors in the play, there is a real effort visible.
All in all, I like it because it is what a normal Nick-show has to be, simply done, sometimes funny and otherwise just relaxed with the feeling that now is free time.

While it's not the best superhero show, it's what I consider to be Nickelodeon's best live action shows. There's no controversy behind it that ruins the viewing experience and none of the characters act like they take stupid pills. Okay, Cherry and Billy are dumb, but at least they know not to try and befriend someone who tried to kill them. The show can even break stereotypes. For instance, Cherry was skeptical of Phoebe's super heroism when she was first told such a thing. It proves that she's not gullible and needs to witness it to believe it.
The Thundermans also has the characters grow and develop. The comedy blends perfectly with the action. And even if a twist can be seen from a country mile, the drama and suspense that comes after makes up for it. It's a great show that gets better when compared to the weak writing Nickelodeon live-action sitcoms is known for. It's not perfect but nothing in this world is!

I have no idea how this show was on for so many seasons. The family is irritating and not entertaining. It's Lab Rats with a family twist that went horribly wrong. I have watch many tween shows and this one in unwatchable. Way over the top acting.

A few years ago I would watch this show. I tried to get the humor because I was in the target audience but there is none. It's bland and the only joke is the producers. Please don't waste your time with this and watch something else instead.

Like a lot of Nick/Disney sitcoms, The Thundermans is based on interpersonal relationships with a heavy dose of sarcastic, dry jokes that are the whole point of the show. Any plots are somewhat irrelevant, it's just a platform for classic joke writing. One aspect that sets this show apart from nearly every other show ever made is that the Mom and Dad are truly best buds spending every moment of their available time together and enjoying each other. The two youngest children also have the same type of relationship. The show centers around the two oldest twin children, who have a teasing-antagonistic relationship, but have resolute moments in the end of each episode where the admit they still care about one another.
