Every episode has a new mystery that Mieke has to solve and one or more bad guys whom Mega Mindy takes down. Mieke's not-so-smart boss always tries to solve the case, but Mega Mindy usually ends up with the solution, which he does not appreciate. He does manage to claim responsibility for capturing a bad guy on several occasions because Mega Mindy cannot reveal herself.
Mega Mindy has several superhero powers. She is able to run very fast and teleport to any place she wants.
"Mega Mindy" was adapted into several stage shows and four films, released in respectively 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2015.
The original boss of Mieke and Toby in the series was replaced by his younger brother. In reality the actor who played their boss, Sjarel Branckaerts, died.
