May 12, 2017: NBC Cancels "Powerless" After One Season

NBC has decided not to renew the TV series "Powerless" for a second season. The show will be cancelled at the end of its first season.

"Powerless", a workplace comedy set at one of the worst insurance companies in America... which exists within the DC Universe, premiered in the USA on Thursday, February 2, and has a few episodes still to air to conclude its 13 episode run.

The show was the first comedy series set in the universe of DC Comics, Vanessa Hudgens ("Grease Live," "High School Musical") plays Emily, a spunky young insurance adjuster specializing in regular-people coverage against damage caused by the crime-fighting superheroes. It's when she stands up to one of these larger-than-life figures (after an epic battle messes with her commute) that she accidentally becomes a cult "hero" in her own right ... even if it's just to her group of lovably quirky co-workers. Now, while she navigates her normal, everyday life against an explosive backdrop, Emily might just discover that being a hero doesn't always require superpowers.
