Anyone going to watch this? Seems like a British "ASBO" version of Heroes:
Quote:
Misfits follows five outsiders on community service who get struck by a flash storm and lumbered with special powers.

Hard as nails Kelly (Lauren Socha) can suddenly hear people’s thoughts, shamed sporting hero Curtis (Nathan Stewart Jarrett) discovers he has the ability to turn back time when he regrets something, and party girl Alisha (Antonia Thomas) can send people into a sexual frenzy when they touch her skin. Even painfully shy Simon (Iwan Rheon) can make himself invisible when he feels he’s being ignored, which makes it all the more hard to swallow for smart aleck Nathan (Robert Sheehan), who seems to have been unaffected, much to his dismay.

Unlike their more conventional counterparts, our misfits don’t swap their ankle tags and mobile phones for capes and tights. Instead, they discover what a pain in the arse life can be when you’re stuck with a super power you didn’t want.

I'll probably check it out, being a sci-fi lover and carrying card member I think it is mandatory.

I just finished the first episode and this reminded me of Dead Set a zombie version of big brother

i think the problem is there have the wrong cast all of them are so annoying that really you really don't  want to watch it-unlike Skins where actually have good actors who can act and great writing and direction. i'm not watching second episode
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-14-2010 09:39     Subject: Season 2 Episode 1

I liked this episode with the psychiatric patient whose a shape shifter causing lots of problems between the group and the acrobatic person in the mask
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-19-2010 01:08     Subject: Season 2 Episode 2

The mysterious masked man makes yet another appearance but Nathan's long-lost brother Jamie arriving surprised him and the group end up taking some drugs that reverse their superpowers with tragic consequences

Poor Nathan, he didn't have his younger brother for very long. At least now we know Nathan can see dead people. The girl who was at the end and coming into the show is an Irish actress (Ruth Negga) and she was just in an Irish mini series called Love/Hate with Robert Sheehan (Nathan) - She played his girlfriend. She's a great actress, good to see her joining MisFits then!

Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-28-2010 13:57     Subject: Season 2 Episode 3

That was a interesting development when the mysterious masked man turns out to be a future version of Simon and Alisha cant tell anyone but i thought Nathan offending the tattooist was stupid at leased he got his revenge with his powers
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-5-2010 08:38     Subject: Season 2 Episode 4

Wow Ollie, who has the power to teleport, begins his community service but doesnt last long but his heart being transplanted into the girl from the block was interesting and future version of Simon has died saving Alisha she had to get rid of his body which was sad for her
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-12-2010 14:54     Subject: Season 2 Episode 5

Good episode when Nathan thinks Jessica, a charity worker from the community centre is responsible for violently killing him once again but what a revelation when it turns out it's her father who is the killer and now Simon was in danger, Bruno climbing up the out side of the building with Kelly was amusing
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-17-2010 16:56     Subject: Season 2 Episode 6

Interesting episode, it's a good job Curtis could reverse time or most of them would be dead after their super-powers are exposed
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-20-2010 03:24     Subject: Season 2 Episode 7 Christmas Special

That was tragic that after they sell their powers that Nikki gets shot and Curtis couldn't rewind time to save her but buying back new powers should make next season more interesting

Just getting a chance to watch the Christmas special now
Author: codebreaker    Time: 10-26-2011 11:32

Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-2-2011 08:20     Subject: 3x01 Episode 1

What happened after the fight on the roof was so unexpected but gives a new meaning to crazy people talking to themselves and Kelly's new power seems to be a waste of time and Curtis being able to change sex was interesting but burring another couple of bodies was a good start to the season
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-9-2011 14:51     Subject: 3x02 Episode 2

Curtis uses his new gender-swapping power was interesting but the way he found out from Emma that he was the worst sex partner she had ever been with was humiliating but at leased going back out with her as a girl he found out what she likes which was different and what they did to the couch was great

This has to be the most amusing episode so far
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-19-2011 03:34     Subject: 3x03 Episode 3

Simon dumping Alisha after saving Peter from a mugger was a little strange but it turns out he has is own powers through his comic drawing and he is drawing what happiness to them all, kidnapping Alisha so Simon could save was a surprise and another person bits the dust
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-27-2011 02:47     Subject: 3x04 Episode 4

The old Jewish man wanting to use time-rewind super-power to kill Hitler was bizarre but when Hitler finds the device they find themselves in an alternate world where the Nazis have managed to conquer the United Kingdom but shooting Curtis was a shock but Kelly saving the day was an amusing end
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-2-2011 10:41     Subject: 3x05 Episode 5

Kelly getting trapped in Jen's body, a coma victim while doing community service at the local hospital and Jen is in Kelly's body makes out with Dom was different but finding out they were going to switch the life support off while they had swapped bodies made the gang steal the body was crazy and Curtis almost getting caught with his had down his trousers was amusing
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-8-2011 06:17     Subject: 3x06 Episode 6

Rudy's drunken one-night-stand with Leia had disastrous consequences but he got what most men deserve for lying to the girl and I'm not surprised that Curtis's gender-swap power's are acting strange because he is pregnant and his new power looks interesting
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-15-2011 06:21     Subject: 3x07 Episode 7

Seth bring his dead ex-girlfriend, Shannon back to life was interesting until Curtis brought the cat back to life and seen the aftermath of what he has done but not being able to kill the cat after all the probation worker they have killed was amusing and you just knew when the cat it would go for the cheerleaders but what a blood bath and still forgetting to kill the cat which was priceless
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-20-2011 12:31     Subject: 3x08 Episode 8

The quick flash back at the start covering all seasons was interesting and the fake medium with a superpower bringing a few familiar faces from their past back to life which was awesome considering how many they killed but who would of thought they could have sex with a ghost and Alisha dying was a surprise until Simon changed his power to turn back time to were it all started in season one
Author: codebreaker    Time: 1-12-2012 00:32

This has now been added to the Flash site

What happened to Misfits?
I just finished watching the first 2 seasons and now the entire show appears to have vanished.

You did well to watch that much considering i notice it had been removed on the 17th
Author: anja22    Time: 1-29-2012 01:09     Subject: Misfits

I noticed that series 1 of Misfits has been added back onto the Flash site - does that mean that series 2 and 3 will be added back on as well?

Ok, saw the about guide and topic under comedy, I am going to put a new one here.  If there is another topic someone I am unable to find it.
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-23-2012 15:37     Subject: 1x01

Well another normals become superheros show, finally got around to it.  Like that they all are not good upstanding citizens, going to be interesting I think.  not the greatest, but not horrible either.
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-23-2012 15:50     Subject: 1x02

Well it seems like that the kids are not the only ones who got hit and have weird things.  The whole old woman/ young woman thing was both funny and scary.
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-23-2012 17:07     Subject: 1x03

Well Simon seems to be not only the invisible one, but also the one who has a bit of smarts

Well they killed another one, oops, no they didn't... Shapechanging is kind of girl

A brother and a side power, the pills had a weird effect
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-24-2012 16:36     Subject: 2x03

Making Nathan fall in love with Simon was funny, of course future Simon being the masked guy was a surprise
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-25-2012 04:56     Subject: 2x04

It seems almost every other person has gotten some type of ability.  Future Simon dying was kind of predictable
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-25-2012 08:51     Subject: 2x05

A gorilla in a gorilla suit, too funny.  And the end with them all in superhero costumes standing there on the top of the building, just classic.
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-25-2012 09:53     Subject: 2x06

Well they averted fate, so does that mean the video future Simon had of the interviews is gone, or just another paradox?

Gave there powers up and then figure it was a bad idea... well...duh.  Hopefully their new powers are better, but immortality is kind of cool
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-25-2012 11:02     Subject: Vegas Baby!

Know it isn't on the site, but it was a funny episode, though i am going to miss Nathan
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-25-2012 11:54     Subject: 3x01

Well got them back to community service, but have to say am not caring much for Nathan's replacement.  he is just as crude as Nathan, but with Nathan, there was something that is less offensive when he was being offensive.
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-25-2012 13:01     Subject: 3x02

I think that could cause an identity crisis.
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-25-2012 14:49     Subject: 3x03

this is the major problem I have relating to the shows time travel scenario, it takes in no consideration of paradox
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-25-2012 16:33     Subject: 3x04

Well another episode that completely screws up the concept and paradox of time travel, understand that it is low budget, but there was so many inaccuracies that it was almost funny
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-26-2012 12:56     Subject: 3x05

Wouldn't Kelly's speech change when it is someone else in her?  Yes it would, again, not very much thought into the technicalities, I really guess this show is designed for superhero light people, bunch of kids
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-26-2012 14:51     Subject: 3x06

Well that is some messed up stuff, in all ways for all the story-lines
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-26-2012 16:02     Subject: 3x07

Zombies!  and another dead probation worker and zombies!
Author: sanggye    Time: 7-26-2012 16:37     Subject: 3x08

Wouldn't it made more sense to try to kill Nathan, since he was technically the one who killed her, all the rest where under her spell, so they didn't kill her.  And she kept saying how innocent and pure she was, but back on the episode where she was alive, the whole thing was that she was a "bad" girl, who put it all away and used her power to make other "bad" people "good"

The man stumbling into the centre with a briefcase was interesting but cutting his hand off because he couldn't cut he handcuff securing the briefcase was sick and after all the fuse about the case the money blows away in the wind
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-1-2012 14:24     Subject: 4x02 Episode 2

The reason why Finn tied up his girlfriend was a little predictable and Curtis getting into a battle with the racist blind girl was interesting but cling-film as a condom was crazy
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-1-2012 15:12     Subject: 4x03 Episode 3

Finn seeing his stepmother in a new light after she was flirting with him was a little bizarre but how clingy she was after the blow-job was creepy
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-1-2012 15:58     Subject: 4x04 Episode 4

Lola making it look like she was attacked by her ex was convincing but what her ex said about killing for her was interesting to find out that she was also caught in the storm but Curtis had not choice to kill her as she tried to kill him but killing himself was a surprise
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-1-2012 16:34     Subject: 4x05 Episode 5

Finn tracking down his real father only to discover he is close to death was sad but his half sister using her powers to keep him alive was interesting
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-3-2012 01:46     Subject: 4x06 Episode 6

The gang going to a all night house party was interesting as the gang had the number of sexual partners written on their heads but Rudy leaving to take Finn to a wake to get laid was I thought was crazy, Nadine running away like Cinderella was bizarre and being stalked by a mysterious killer rabbit was creepy but the missing penis was priceless
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-15-2012 08:00     Subject: 4x07 Episode 7

The new girl, Abby was unlucky when the girl in the toilet used her power to transfer her baby into her and it looks like things were looking up when Nadine turned up but doing another runner was predictable as this time we find out she's a Nun
Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-17-2012 10:53     Subject: 4x08 Episode 8

Rudy's passion for Nadine was short lived when she sacrificed herself to save the others and Alex needing a transplant is bound to have a new power with it in the next season

I was right about Alex finding out that he has acquired a strange new superpower after his transplant but being in his cock was amusing and that was a close call for Finn the first time with the Scouts but not so lucky in the toilet, going mad after being possessed was predictable and Jess should of guest it was a set up

I don't know what happened to Finn can be called a close call, sure there was some pain there   Kinda funny that Alex says he is going to do good with his c*ck.  Love the turtle being there, and to see the video game guy back is interesting, hopefully he can separate reality from his power vision
Author: sanggye    Time: 10-31-2013 17:24     Subject: Series 5, Episode 2

Have to admit, I am liking this series better than the 4th.  though it still doesn't compare to the 1st.  I was hoping at the end that Rudy would have brought Rudy 2 to meet the family after all.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-1-2013 01:44     Subject: Reply 46#46 sanggye's post

If Rudy thinking he found out his dad was having an affair wasn't bad enough but the fact he's also split into two from the storm made sense

That has to be the lowest stunt ever pretending he is dying just to get into the girls knickers and what karma getting someone else illness but killing himself was a surprise,  the gypsy casts a spell on Alex after he refuses to help her was amusing and Rudy not being able to get an erection in front of Jess was bizarre
