Love That!: Henry Danger TV Series

I love watching superhero/comic book TV series (no surprise there) and one that I really love watching is Henry Danger. It's an action comedy series on the Nickelodeon channel that follows Ray Manchester (Cooper Barnes) as the superhero Captain Man and Henry Hart (Jace Norman) as Captain Man's sidekick Kid Danger. The heroes protect Swellview city and the world from villains, monsters and a number of other catastrophes.

Assisting the heroes are Henry's friends Charlotte Page (Riele Downs) and Jasper Dunlop (Sean Ryan Fox) and Ray's assistant and inventor Schwoz (Michael D. Cohen). I love all the characters, Ray and Henry are both weird, loony and not very bright but surprisingly they are very effective superheroes. Meanwhile, Charlotte is super smart and I truly consider her to be the brains of the team too bad she's surrounded by so many idiots (Ray, Henry, Jasper and Schwoz). As for Jasper, nothing ever seems to go right for him, he is like the King of Bad Luck and last is Schwoz who is smart but is also a little weird as well as a little dense but he does create some really interesting gadgets and other inventions.

Henry Danger which is currently in it's fifth season, is such a ridiculous show but I love watching it. The show might be about the heroic actions of Captain Man and Kid Danger it definitely features plenty of action and adventure but it's the friendships and zany humor that really steal the show. No matter what the situation calls for Henry, Charlotte and Jasper are like the Three Musketeers and are always looking out for each other. However, with Ray as the slightly incompetent leader of the group it's a wonder they actually manage to save the day.

This show might not get as much attention as other superhero shows because it's not dark and serious but that's why I love watching Henry Danger it's fun and doesn't take itself so seriously. I do hope the show will be renewed for at least one more season but if this 5th season is the last, it's been fun watching this zany wonderful series.
