The Almighty Johnsons - First Episode

Restricted to persons 16 years and over 2011 44m Television

  • Comedy

In the first 10 minutes of this TV3 show, Axl (Emmett Skilton) has a close shave outside the bottle store on the eve of his 21st birthday. But that’s nothing compared to the meteors, earthquakes, revelations and a blood red Mission Bay that follow. By the end of the episode Axl has been let in on a little secret: he and his Kiwi bloke older brothers are also Norse gods. From Outrageous Fortune creators James Griffin and Rachel Lang, the light-hearted lad fantasy saga gained a loyal following and — in a rare example of a Kiwi TV export to the United States — all three seasons screened on the SyFy channel.
