DC announces workplace comedy TV pilot Powerless

August 14, 2015 by Gary Collinson

It looks like DC Entertainment is further expanding its small screen output, with Deadline revealing that Warner Bros. Television has secured a pilot producton commitment from NBC for Powerless, a half hour single-camera workplace comedy described as The Office with superheroes.

Created by Ben Queen, Powerless takes place at “one of the worst insurance companies in America — with the twist being that it also takes place in the universe of DC Comics. The show is about the reality of working life for a normal, powerless person in a world of superheroes and villains.”

The site reports that it is yet to be decided which superheroes will feature in the show, but it’s unlikely to include A-listers like Batman and Superman.
