Title: No Ordinary Family
Post by: AshKetchum on May 24, 2010 at 09:08 AM: No Ordinary Family is about the Powells, a relatively typical American family with their share of personal issues, who develop super powers after their plane crashes into the Amazon. The cast includes Michael Chiklis (The Shield, Fantastic Four) as Jim Powell, Julie Benz (Dexter, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel) as Stephanie Powell, Tate Donovan (Damages, The OC) as Mitch McCutcheon, and Autumn Reeser (The OC) as Katie Andrews.

ABC has picked up this one-hour series, billed as a "dramedy" for the 2010 Fall Season.
Watch the trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbBplfoXBbY

Looks promising, if only for the cast and The Incredibles vibe...hope this doesn't turn into another Heroes though.

Season Premiere is on Sept. 28, 2010.

It's actually sort of a comedy. Ok, maybe a drama that doesn't take itself too seriously.
