Church Militant: Natalie works for an organisation that wants to kill the Gods earthly forms since it goes against their belief of there only being one God.It's her story that galvanizes the cult to bring their fight to New Zealand. Later the gang discovers she was very much human, a virgin, a member of the Christian cult that wants to exterminate the Norse gods, and very, very upset about being tricked into bed. It's implied by Anders' exposition that she's a giant, like Bryn. Chekhov's Gunman: We see a split second cut of Anders mid-coitus with an extremely tall woman in Norway.When we find out that Gaia is Tyr's daughter, it's revealed that Tyr and Gaia's mother were drug dealers/makers, hence why he spent time in jail. Mentioned in passing by Thor, who met him in jail. At the beginning on the last episode, the Big Bad Agnetha is revealed to be Frejya. In the first episode, the boys' mother was revealed to be the incarnation of Frejya.Hey! That girl in the bridal shop looks familiar.Something Mike did in the first episode to prove to Axl that he was a God. The first season ends with Mike and Axl playing Rock, Paper, Scissors.He wears nothing but red and black suits, interferes with Axl's quest despite it serving no interest of his, and delivers every line like he's got a stage audience. Card-Carrying Villain: Colin obviously embraces his role as the god of mischief and lies, and enjoys the hell out of it.Once Odin and Frigg are reunited, the spirits of all the Norse gods leave their hosts and return to Asgard, leaving the Johnsons and everyone else mortal again.Brought Down to Normal: While Axl is seriously ill in 'Man-Flu', everybody's god powers stop working.

Bowdlerize: The American version on Syfy bleeps out swear words and covers over nudity.

Clearly overruled in the late first season/second season by Colin/Loki.

Berserk Button: Do NOT call him Derrick or tell him that he's mad.

Olaf describes Thor as being 'barking mad.' It shows. Their attraction is irresistible but so repugnant to both that she actually leaves the country-and the person she actually wants to marry-to escape it.

It doesn't change the fact that they are soul mates.

Anders and Gaia sincerely don't like each other, and don't want to be together.

The Atoner: Mike/Ullr caused his best friend to enter a coma during a barfight years before the show began.

Yet, several of the myths are proven true or the characters reenact them leaving it up in the air on how accurate the myths may be.

Played with, Olaf dismisses most of the myths as completely inaccurate.

The introduction of the Maori Gods in season two hints that other Gods may still exist as well.

However, several goddesses have united to prevent him from finding Frigg, including the one who tried to kill him earlier. If he doesn't find her before he dies, his whole family dies with him. After a rival goddess shoots an arrow which nearly pierces his heart, fulfilling the prophecy that proves he is Odin, his older brother Mike (Timothy Balme) tells him about his quest: In order to get all their powers back, Axl (Odin) has to find his soulmate, Frigg, and seal the deal. It takes a lightning bolt to make him realize the truth about his godhood, and he discovers that he is the physical incarnation of the god Odin. Upon turning 21, his brothers tell him that he and his brothers are reincarnated Norse Gods, although their powers have diminished over the years. The story revolves around Axl Johnson (Emmett Couling Skilton), a typical university student who has just turned 21 years old-an event which triggers weird signs all over Auckland. The Almighty Johnsons is a 2011 New Zealand Urban Fantasy Dramedy about a family of four Kiwi brothers and their Cloud Cuckoolander cousin-who all happen to be incarnations of Norse gods.
