My Hero
 
(2000) TV series 2000-2006
 

Genre:
Comedy + Fantasy + Romance

Synopsis:
Thermoman is a multiple-powered superhero who originates from the planet Ultron. In an attempt to do his best to fit in with life on earth, he creates the human alias of George Sunday. However, due to his unfamiliarity with human life, his antics usually lead to many misunderstandings. Although Thermoman is intrinsically very intelligent, his problem understanding earthly customs makes him look like an idiot to people who don't know who he really is. At the start of the first series, he saves wife-to-be Janet Dawkins from danger, and after falling in love, the pair later have two children, Ollie and Cassie, who also possess superpowers. Other main characters include Piers Crispin, a self obsessed doctor who has a crush on Janet; Mrs. Raven, the doctor's miserable receptionist; Ella and Stanley Dawkins, Janet's over-protective parents; and Arnie, Thermoman's cousin, a one-time superhero who runs a restaurant in Brooklyn, New York.
(from wikipedia.org)

The series follows Thermoman's closest family, including his wife, Janet, played by Emily Joyce; his daughter, Cassie, played by Madeline Mortimer; and his son, Ollie, played by Finlay Stroud. Other characters who make regular appearances include Dr Piers Crispin, played by Hugh Dennis; Mrs Raven, played by Geraldine McNulty; Thermoman's cousin, Arnie, played by Lou Hirsch; the Sundays' next-door neighbour, Tyler, played by Philip Whitchurch; and Janet's mother and father, Ella and Stanley Dawkins, played by Lill Roughley and Tim Wylton.
