The Almighty Johnsons

- Season 1

(2011)

It is Axl Johnson's 21st birthday - which explains the fire in the sky, the Waitemata Harbour being the colour of blood, the various women who seem to want to kill him, and the sudden need for a family ceremony in a forest.

Everyone's lives depend on an Odin/Frigg union ere long, so Anders pushes Axl to start bedding as many women as he can.

Ty meets his first goddess, whom he must keep away from Anders, and Axl attends a party of the gods where he clashes with an uninvited guest.

A surprise pregnancy and a leaky roof bounces Axl between his grandpa's irresponsibility, Mike's over-responsibility and Anders' unethical approaches.

A visit from Gaia's nudist father (to take his daughter home for good) coincides with Michele framing Axl for a cocaine theft at the hospital.

A heavenly sign draws both gods and goddesses to the city of Whangamaungamoa to look for Frigg. Meanwhile, Ty tires of always being stuck in the Friend Zone.

As Mike and Axl head out to drown their sorrows, one drowns his debt while the other meets three maidens seeking a party with Anders.

Loyalties start to shift as the gods and goddesses believe they've found Frigg, Michele proposes a pact with Anders, and Rob's recovery threatens Mike's marriage.

Axl proposes marriage. In retaliation, the bride-to-be's lawyer father (Loki the trickster) presents a contract in Norse runes that no one but Axl's enemies can read.

As the wedding gets closer, the Johnson brothers find themselves bound by a small untranslated clause in Axl's marriage contract.
