Does anyone watch this show? It's on Tuesdays on ABC. I love this show, its new this year and is on the bubble. Most of the shows I like get cancelled after a year so hopefully it'll win the good fight.
It's really a cool show. Basically its a family that's normal, their plane crashes while on vacation and suddenly they have super powers, totally unexplained. The mother is a scientist (who also now has super-speed) and is doing studies to try to figure it all out, her assistant is her sidekick (and amuses me). The father (Michael Chiklis) has superstrength. He works for the police as a sketch artist and as soon as he gets his powers he and his best friend (who is the DA and can be pretty fun too) try to fight crime. JJ, the son becomes a super-genius and the girl Daphne can read minds (at first...she seems to be gaining powers).
The show is pretty well written and has some funny parts here and there. The father and his best friend test his powers in their own ways (like driving a car over him) and the kids are typical teenagers.
There's also a story line where there's a conspiracy with a doctor that the mother works for, other guys with superpowers too.
I used to watch Heroes but in my opinion No Ordinary Family is much better. Its one of those that can probably be considered a Drama-dy (Drama-comedy). Hopefully it'll be picked up for a second season. It just needs a few more viewers and apparently they only look at the US ratings... so everyone in the US, go and watch an episode, see what you think!
