Promo for NBC’s Powerless reveals how it’s like to live in the DC universe

I think there's always been a fascination with what it would be like to live with superheroes. What would your daily routine be? How would things be different? Like, if Thor smashed your car, would that be an act of God? The mind boggles.

Well, wonder no more! Because NBC's new series POWERLESS, starring Vanessa Hudgens, Alan Tudyk, and Danny Pudi, is all about what would it be like to live as a normal person in the DC universe. And, honestly, it looks scary (which shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who's seen the DCEU films):

Honestly, I think this looks really fun! The humor's maybe a bit broader than I'm usually into, but the premise might be able to overcome that. Hell, in college I wrote a script that was about a guy who worked at an insurance company in a world where superheroes exist (there was even a scene where he was running late for work, when a superhero threw something that destroyed his car in the middle of a battle). So I'm obviously on board for this, as it's something I've always been curious about seeing.

But what about you Schmoes? You down for POWERLESS? And what do you think your chances of survival would be if you lived in the DC Universe?

Either way, POWERLESS will premiere on NBC February 2nd, 2017.
