Misfits is a BAFTA Award-winning British live-action superhero comedy-drama about a group of young offenders forced to work in a community service programme, where they become imbued with supernatural powers after a strange electrical storm.

Good stuff. Six eps. Watch.

Not a great job of selling it.

But it has some really cool characters. There are some interesting powers and dynamics between the characters.

Also would point out, that even though they got powers, they don't become heroes which was kind of refreshing.

Not a great job of selling it.

Had a trailer, a quote, said it was good, how long it is, and told them to watch. I should receive a goddamn advertising award for that sort of effort.

I saw the first episode on TV a few weeks ago, and I liked it.
I initially started watching it because somehow I thought it would be about the band The Misfits.
It was pretty neat, concept-wise, and had some pretty timely dry-humour moments.

I haven't seen anything passed the first episode of the first season, but I read the synopsis for the entire season because I wanted to figure out what the hell the show even was.

I keep meaning to watch it, but I always forget when it's on.

I just finished it. The last episode was probably the worst... very unsatisfying ('unsatisfactionary' sounsd more fun).

Yeah that last ep was-- well, could have tied in better with what came before it. But if liked the rest it's coming back in November for a second series.

I think I'll pass.

Btw did you understand the slang-talking girl in the first episodes? It took me a while (had to use subs), with English not being my native language. But by the 5th and 6th episodes I didn't need the subs anymore.

So yeah, show's back. First two eps have been really strong.

Yet another attempt to peak your interest.

Series 3 just started. They all have new powers and somehow they're even worse than before. The girl who can be hard to understand is now a rocket scientist. Literally. She can design rockets but that's about it. The new guy (Nathan is gone) is surprising not bad.

And apparently they're doing an American remake. Sighs.
