## Synopsis

Henry Danger (2014-2020) is an American Nickelodeon family comedy created by Dan Schneider and Dana Olsen, a five-season kids superhero sitcom. Jace Norman plays thirteen-year-old Henry Hart, who lands a job as Danger, the sidekick-in-training to the self-important crime fighter Captain Man, played by Cooper Barnes. Henry must keep his eighth grade life running while he responds to crimes around the city, and his best friend Jasper Dunlop, played by Sean Ryan Fox, and his sister Piper Hart, played by Ella Anderson, get pulled into the chaos. Each episode is largely self-contained, built around a new crime or mishap, with recurring school and home situations giving the show its steady rhythm. The tone is brisk, goofy and warm, full of slapstick, sight gags and affectionate parody of superhero conventions. Fans of Teen Titans Go!, The Tick and Kick Buttowski: Suburban Daredevil will find the same mix of youthful energy and comic deflation. Set in a modern American city, the show remains light, friendly and easy to follow for younger viewers and families.
