Your Assignment This Weekend: Watch Extraordinary
Emma Moran’s clever comedy about a girl with no superpowers in a world full of them is the British cousin of The Good Place.
Creator and writer Emma Moran builds out a rich world where the fact that most of the population possesses a singular, idiosyncratic ability — teleportation, fixing bad haircuts with the touch of a hand — is only one fantastical element in this bizarro version of contemporary East London. Technically, he was a stray she took in during season one and named Jizzlord, only to discover that he was actually a man (Luke Rollason, his eyes as wide as the saucers his alter ego licks from) with the capacity to shape-shift and, also, no memory of his pre-feline form. Titles include: Weird Things You’ve Thought About While Masturbating and The Compiled Lies of Jennifer Regan, a series of audio cassettes read by distinguished British actor Derek Jacobi.
