- TriviaThe series has a reoccurring musical cue which is not an original composition for the show, but is actually a remixed instrumental of the song "Pepper" by the Butthole Surfers. The song is about societal criticism when being viewed by others and brushes with death. This ties back to the lead character Jen who is looked down upon for not having super powers and is told how they are going to die in the first episode.
- GoofsJizzlord is a male shape shifter, but when in cat form he presents as a black tortoiseshell. While male tortoiseshell cats can exist, they are very rare (about 1 in 3,000 cats).
Featured review
I have always liked Superhero movies that did not take the conventional approach to the genre. For example, kick ass, and the Watchmen were my favorites for some time, and despite people's hatred for it, I kind of dug Ironman 3. Extraordinary tells the story of a woman without superpowers in a world where everyone has superpowers. The superpowers are kind of irrelevant to the story, it's just the story of an unextraordinary person who does not know what her purpose is. It is full of very meaningful moments, and hilarity. There are very few things that I can watch by myself and laugh out loud and this is one of them. The actors are great, and the writing is superb.
