However I think what really gives the show power is the character Andrew himself. I even like the theme song which I think is very good, it's really catchy and memorable. And we get to see some decent action where he gets to use them. The effects on the powers are solid and practical, mainly the one that stands out is the super speed where he can run as fast as "The Flash". Let alone seeing this take place in Canada which is cool, so we have a little insight into the country. To me watching this show was almost a dream come true as we saw a young boy having superpowers and getting to use them.
It was unique for it's time because we never really had many live action shows let alone comics on the young populace having superpowers at the time but have now became common place with shows like the movies "Cronicle", "Power Rangers", the graphic comic and upcoming TV series "Runaways", and many more.
Yeah, sometimes like most comic book stories it's not perfect but the show does gain some altitude.
This show is one that has flown under the radar and it's another childhood gem of mine. Comic book stories sometimes by their nature are wish fulfillment fantasies because it's always that notion that one day we will have are chance to become and do something great.
