## Synopsis

The Thundermans (2013-2018) is an American Nickelodeon family sitcom created by Jed Spingarn for Nickelodeon. Phoebe Thunderman (Kira Kosarin) is a cheerful super student who dreams of becoming a superhero, while her twin brother Max Thunderman (Jack Griffo) is a super villain. Their parents Hank (Chris Tallman) and Barb (Rosa Blasi) run an ordinary suburban household where superpowers must stay hidden from the neighbors. Younger siblings Nora (Addison Riecke) and Billy (Diego Velazquez) add chaos, and Dr. Colosso (Dana Snyder) and the Puppeteer (Edward Chiodo) supply villainous mischief. Each episode is a short, self-contained caper built from school problems, family squabbles and hero-versus-villain schemes. Across four seasons and ninety-eight episodes, the series keeps a breezy, sunny register while exploring sibling rivalry and the strain of hiding who you are. Its light comedy and kid-friendly superhero tone will appeal to fans of The Incredibles, Kim Possible and Teen Titans Go!, making it an easy, cheerful family watch.
