ABC Orders Superhero Dramedy Series NO ORDINARY FAMILY!!

I am – Hercules!! The Petrelli-driven “Heroes” may be done, but ABC has ordered to series a new project about a family of superheroes titled “No Ordinary Family,” according to Deadline Hollywood. The series, from dramedy vet Greg Berlanti (“Dawson’s Creek,” “Jack & Bobby,” “Dirty Sexy Money,” “Brothers & Sisters”), represents ABC’s latest attempt to graft the dramedy of hits like “Desperate Housewives” and “Grey’s Anatomy” to a sci-fi project like its current biggest scripted hit, “Lost.” Prior ABC sci-fi dramedies include “Defying Gravity” and “FlashForward.” "Ordinary" stars Michael Chiklis (“The Commish,” “The Shield”), Julie Benz (“Angel,” “Dexter”), Autumn Reeser (“The OC,” “Human Target”), Romany Malco (“The 40-Year-Old Virgin,” “Weeds”), Kay Panabaker (“Summerland,” “CSI”) and Chistina Chang (“24,” “CSI Miami”). ABC, which announces its fall schedule Tuesday, describes the series' "Fantastic Four"-ish premise:
The Powells are about to go from ordinary to extraordinary. After 16 years of marriage, Jim and Stephanie’s relationship lacked the spark it once had, and their family life now consists of balancing work and their two children; leaving little time for family bonding. During a family vacation set up by Jim in an attempt to reconnect, their plane crashes into the Amazon River. But this is where the fun starts for the Powells as they soon discover that something’s not quite right. Each of them now possesses unique and distinct super powers. But saving and savoring their family life will be equally important as they try to find purpose for their new power and embark on a journey to find out what defines and unifies them. The Powells are a totally relatable family that happens to be a little bit amazing.
