AndrewOW Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Has anyone else seen this yet? It's a new series about a dysfunctional US family that acquire super human powers after a plane crash in a weird lake in Brazil, and try to deal with these new powers, the family and everything else too. It's a nicely paced comedy drama that I think could easily beat Heroes if they keep it like this (that shouldn't be difficult, really). It's got Michael Chiklis (The Thing, Fantastic Four), and Julie Benz (Dexter) as the parents. It's on Watch (Sky). Some more info here: http://tv.sky.com/no-ordinary-family http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1591493/ NbBplfoXBbY I'm on episode 3, and it's turning out to be a pretty good programme.

Septic Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Looks cool but I doubt it'll be as good as Misfits. That is just brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attero Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 So it's The Incredibles but in a real human format? This doesn't look that much different to any other superpower programme... needless to say, I'll watch an episode and come back with some results.

AndrewOW Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 seen upto episode 5 now, pretty good. Im liking it alot. I watched episode 6 last night. It's still very well paced, amusing, and charming, but with some sinister undertones, so not all is as it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Is it worth watching the pilot show or go straight to Ep 1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Is it worth watching the pilot show or go straight to Ep 1? There's a pilot? Oh, I didn't know that, but it hasn't spoilt anything by not seeing it. I'll have to get that too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/206930793/no+ordinary+family?tab=summary It's just episode 1, so I wouldn't bother, unless you want to watch it twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 It's just episode 1, so I wouldn't bother, unless you want to watch it twice. Too late - I found that out last night Good show so far though. I watched up to episode 3 and thoroughly enjoyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 It looks cracking. I think I'll get started. Is there a way to watch the first episodes catch up etc? Or will it have to be torrents to get up to date? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think you'll have to go by torrents, as it's been on 'Watch' the past few weeks, and even their repeats have now gone, etc. I'm now on episode 8, and it's just getting better all the time. Turning darker now, but still keeping the spirit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
