The Thundermans is an American sitcom created by Jed Spingarn that premiered on Nickelodeon on October 14, 2013. The series stars Kira Kosarin, Jack Griffo, Addison Riecke, Diego Velazquez, Chris Tallman, Rosa Blasi, and Maya Le Clark.
The Thundermans are a family of superheroes who are trying to live a normal life in Hiddenville. The two oldest children, twins Phoebe and Max Thunderman, must babysit their younger siblings, Nora and Billy, while their parents, Hank and Barb, go out to dinner. Phoebe disobeys her parents orders when she invites her best friend Cherry over and accidentally exposes the family's superpower abilities. As for Max, he uses Nora and Billy to work on evil tasks in his bedroom lair. Hank and Barb are enjoying dinner until they overhear that a party entertainer who was to be Thunderman at a child's birthday party could not perform. Hank does not want to disappoint the child so he decides to wear the Thunderman supersuit without exposing his true super powers.
A prank war between Max and Phoebe gets out of hand. At first Max dumps melted cheese and chocolate on Phoebe's head and transfers her bed into the school. Later, Phoebe tricks Max into dressing up as a hula dancer. Max reveals to Phoebe that the only reason he is evil is because he does not want to live in his sister's shadow and be second best so he would rather be best at being evil. Hank and Barb try a new parenting style by letting the children handle their own problems and Nora and Billy have a trash competition.
Just as Hank reminds the children about no non-superheroes in the house, Max plans to sabotage dinner when Phoebe has to invite her crush, Cole Campbell, and his rich family over. However, just as Max's plans are in play, his crush, Tara, also arrives with the family. This forces Phoebe and Max to work together to keep the night from turning into a complete disaster, while they also deal with Nora, Billy, and their parents, who are embarrassing them and their guests.
Max changes the grades on his report card and is moved into an advanced class, at first only to annoy Phoebe and win the class over, but later becomes serious about competing. The competition is tight, and near the end, Phoebe and Max both use their superpowers to make the other team's player unable to speak. Meanwhile, Nora, Billy, and Hank try to catch a newspaper thief and learn that the culprit is actually Dr. Colosso. Back at Math Bowl, the two teams are tied, which results in a sudden death round with a tiebreaker question where only the team captains, Phoebe and Max, can answer. They get a question which Max happens to know the answer to, but he deliberately gives a wrong answer to make Phoebe's team win.
