Do you watch Misfits?

[skips]

Thanks to Hulu, I've recently become addicted to watching Misfits. I've just finished watching the Christmas special and series two.

Any fans of the show out here in JUB land?


Here's a trailer for series one:

[skips]

No rush. I'll be sure not to spoil anything for you either.

[braex27]

Yes yes yes! I have seen both series and the Christmas special. Excellent show. The characters all grated me at first but they grow on you - and fast!

[bostonboy20]

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SHOW! Can't wait for the new season!

I think I need to re-watch the first 2 "series" sometime soon it's been to long since I finished them!

[skips]

I am addicted to this show but I've finished the first 2 series and the Christmas special and now there are no new episodes left to watch on Hulu.

I fell in love with Kelly in the very first episode. Her accent never fails to put a smile on my face.

A favor though, guys: If we talk about any of the episodes can we please say something like 'spoiler alert' first and then follow these instructions to avoid spoiling it for people who are still catching up on watching the show?

Awesome.

[bisuperboi2007]

I watch it and it is awesome. It's like Skins meets Heroes

[justdra]

Can't say I ever heard of it, I use to watch a show on NBC called Misfits of Science, but that was probably before your time, lol.

[menRsexii]

YES!!! I love that show! My friend recently started watching it and got me addicted! Can't wait for the new season to come out

[neoachilles]

I absolutely love this show! Can't wait for the next series to begin. Nathan--that mouthy little fuck--has my heart. Between the accent, the hair, the attitude, and the lovable douchebagery, he is my favorite character. I loved that episode in the second series where he gets mindfucked by that tattoo artist. No spoilers, really, for those who haven't seen the episode yet, but here are all of Nathan's clips from that particular episode.

[braex27]

I love Nathan. He's such a jerk but sooo loveable.

[neoachilles]

Where the frak is Nathan?!

[neoachilles]

^^Sorry about that, idk how I managed to overlook that bit of news. Well, that sucks about Nathan; like I stated before, I loved him best. Oh well, here's hoping the newbie can make me a believer.

[braex27]

Hahaha - loved it. I agree, thatgirl, they should build Rudy as a character in his own right and not try to turn him into Nathan 2.

Can't wait.

[Ram]

I can't wait for season three!



This show will be different without Nathan though.

[Ram]

I find him cute. I am going to watch for sex reasons.

[braex27]

I am just loving Kelly's line in the trailer:

"What the fuck is brunch?"

That inimitable accent. Love it.

MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!

[MawellEvans]

MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!

i think she is my favorite. "i love the police".

[braex27]

I am also hot for Iwan Rheon who plays Barry, I mean Simon!



He's an Olivier-award winner who was in the brilliant Spring Awakening and is a solo singer on the side too.

Here he is in Spring Awakening:

[ShyNerd3112]

OMG i llove this show soo bad!!!!!

I cant wait for season 3 (ithink) to be out in the uk. I love simon so much...i like his shyness and well hes just fit!

[glasvegas]

Is good to see them back! But their powers is getting lame. LOL-ed at Curtis gender swap and Kelly's accent still sexy.

Haha if i was talking to someone like that in real life id just want to slap them silly and shout "speak proper english" but i love her xD

[Ram]

Who's Nathan again?

[bostonboy20]

The S3 premiere was amazing imo. I can't wait to see the gang exploring their new powers.

I LOVE Rudy to bits already. Surprisingly, I didn't find myself even missing Nathan. At all. Totally was not expecting Rudy's character to be like that...Very interesting. Rudy has so much more potential as a character and is already more well-rounded than Nathan after only a single episode. He's more than just the comic relief unlike Nathan, tbh. As much as I liked Nathan, I think the show has moved on perfectly without him.

All in all, very excited. S3 is off to an awesome start.

oh man..completely agree...I'm already in love with Rudy...LOL...I love unconventionally sexy people...and he's hilarious at the same time

[FuryOfFirestorm]

Been looking forward to Season 3. I'm going to miss Nate, but at least the rest of the cast is still around, so I'm not complaining.

[glasvegas]

oh man..completely agree...I'm already in love with Rudy...LOL...I love unconventionally sexy people...and he's hilarious at the same time

He is 10X funnier than Nathan. Now I wonder if Nathan is going to be back on Series 4?

[glasvegas]

Did Misfits just showed Curtis cock?

[glasvegas]

Yeah, there was a penis peeking out from under the dress.

But, it could have been a prosthetic or a body double, I guess.

I didn't even notice it until I read some reactions online. lol

I was like, they did not just show that on tv. It was a fun episode. Couldn't stop laughing when Curtis got his first period and Rudy's puking out Melissa's pube

[bostonboy20]

^ lol forever.

Curtis is a zillion times more interesting with his new power. I thought he always had the weakest characterization of the bunch but this episode really made me love/appreciate him more. Fuck, that was awesome and hilarious. And I think I'm kinda gay for "Melissa."

Melissa's exchanges with Simon = Adorable. And why am I suddenly shipping Rudy & Curtis? Unf. At this rate, I'll be shipping Rudy w/ everyone. Wtf.

A+. Hopefully after this episode fandom will stop shitting on Curtis. lol

maybe I'm just stupid but what does "shipping" mean in the way you're using it?

[bostonboy20]

am I the only one that kinda wouldn't mind getting taken in the backseat by the track coach/rapist? lol...dude was hot

[glasvegas]

S3 episode 3 was cool but it made me realize that I'm kind of over Simon & Alisha's romance/relationship. I got swept up in it at first but...For some reason, it's just not working for me anymore. It's like they're smothering each other and it makes them kind of dull to watch as a couple.

The next episode looks super good tho. Nazis? Wut.

I haven't watch the new episode but Simon is absolutely boring. He was interesting at first ( his personality somehow reflected my old self ) then it started to went down hill after the super hoodie thing. He is trying too hard to be something he wasn't to be. That is real painful to watch.

I love Kelly. Among the group, she is the one who shows that she cares for others.

[braex27]

Is anyone else seriously crushing on Seth (aka Matthew McNulty) or is it just me?!

[glasvegas]

^ Yeah I think that's it, that is part of what's bothering me. I miss the old Simon who was slightly crazy/creepy. And the wild Alisha was kind of bitchy and selfish.

It seems like Simon and Alisha's character arcs are relying too heavily on them being in love/a couple and that is just super boring, having them develop only in the context of a romantic relationship.

Yup. I don't really feel that they're in love. I think Alisha is really confuse right now. She likes the future Simon, not future Simon in training. Simon is tagging along with her because he never had anyone in his life.

And Seth is really hot. Hope he stays around and possibly end up with my fav Kelly.

[Anton98]

Episode 3 was ok. The guy's power was cool, but I would be writing comics of me hooking up with guys I never could. I thought he was a little too attached to Simon to only wanting him to be Super Hoodie. I thought there was something else going on. And Alisha and Simon are still cute together, but the writers have put them into "that couple where neither character are interesting to watch on their own". The new powers suck really bad. Rudy seems like a carbon copy of Nathan where its really obvious when he says off the wall stuff. I prefer sensitive Rudy instead. Seth is sooooooooo FINE, that tattoo on his neck does it for me. So far this season is just ok. Hate to admit it, but with Nathan gone the shows a lil dull.

[glasvegas]

Episode 4 was fucking amazing. Love how the story played out. Kelly was super awesome and bad ass. She and Seth make a real cute couple. They can write off Simon. He's getting on my nerves.

"Fucking Nazis"

[neoachilles]

Yeah, Nathan used to be my favorite character on the show. Since he's been off, Kelly has quickly taken his place. I fucking love her. That scene with Hitler at the end was terrific. Next week's episode looks to be even better. The romance budding between her and Seth is really getting good.

[glasvegas]

Totally agree. It was super amazing.

And I think I'm finally starting to like Seth. Before I was indifferent but now I'm really rooting for Kelly and him to get together. They'd be a sweet couple and it would be interesting to see how it would change the group dynamic if they stay together and he becomes on a regular on the show.

I hope they don't kill off Seth like they did with Nikki (Curtis), Sally (Simon), Charlie (Rudy). I think Seth is trying to resurrect his dead girlfriend/wife but I am good with the upcoming episode focusing on Kelly and Seth.

[glasvegas]

I think they'll keep him around. Otherwise how will the gang keep switching powers? So that's why I'm thinking they'll try to work him in as a regular.

But you're right, they do kill people off a lot on this show.

Every episodes. LOL. People just died. The only emotional part is that they killed off Nathan's half brother and then his spirit tried to make Nathan make amends with his dad. I was tearing up when Nathan knows that he died.

I am good with the gang powers right now. Curtis can be a comic relief with his gender switching. Kelly obviously kicking in with her 'fucking rocket scientist' power, Rudy's power can be a fun thing to watch, Alisha can be a peeping Jane and Simon don't even use his power anymore. He only used it twice? in the show. He should able to predict stuff like Phoebe Hailliwell in Charmed instead of using it for jumping from buildings to buildings.

I hope there is an episode bringing in their new powers ex users, that would be awesome.

[glasvegas]

I really do enjoy their new powers, even though I know a lot of people think they're boring. I think they make for unique story telling that isn't super cliche superhero stuff.

I was like MEH when the first episode reviewed their new found powers. But as the series progressed, I was like, wow, this is fun (esp. Curtis's episode). Yes, this isn't your typical go save the day superhero series. In fact, I think they're just normal ( well, exclude the killing part ). They never used it to change the world ( it is a forced situation for Kelly), or do good deeds nor use it for bad purposes ( the bank rob was forced too)

Which kinda stands out from the bunch ( Heroes etc. )

[glasvegas]

I'm so in love with Seth/ Kelly. But knowing that this is Misfits, they're going to make me regret getting emotionally invested in this pair. I hope Rudy is right and that Seth is now "one of the gang."

Oh and poor Shaun the Probation Worker Guy. Even though he annoyed me a lot with his sexual harassment of Female!Curtis, I liked him. The gang is kind of evil for letting him die.

Major spoiler! Shaun died? I like his non chalant personality. Three probation workers just disappear out of thin air. Hmmm.

I think there is a possibility of killing Seth off in the series 3 finale which I personally hate it to see.

Gotta download the new episode!

[glasvegas]

Sry! Yeah he did. And I'm annoyed.

He was cool. And the actor was weirdly sexy, imo. Not gonna lie. lol

The show really needs to tackle the dead probation workers thing. It's getting to be a bit silly at this point. Where are the damn consequences. lol

Can't believe they just watched him die. LOL. They already get used to killing and watching people die. Yea, I hope the fourth probation worker is lucky this time. I feel sorry for Shaun thou. He deserves a more epic dying scene.

Well, I'll cry if they kill Seth in the finale. I thought he was kinda creepy and gross at first but now I think he's so precious, especially after the last two episodes.

Me too. He's sexy and cute. I would fall for him too ( even though he is a dealer )

Have fun! It's a really cool episode with an interesting ethical dilemma.

Lauren Socha is extra brilliant in this one.

I kinda feel bad for Jen thou. But at least she knows Dom really really loves her. It is a mind wreck to see someone you love lying down on a hospital bed like a dead corpse.

Lauren Socha FTW!

Next episode Seth will find the power that he seeks. I hope it doesn't ruin his relationship with Kelly. Kelly is such a sweet girl.

[glasvegas]

This week episode was good. Slowly leading up to the finale. Curtis got this new power, Simon finally using his power for good ( to watch Rudy's cock fell off ). They will resurrect up all the dead probation workers ( Tony and Sally) and Rachel in the finale ( Shaun is accredited) , I have no idea what they did with Shaun's dead body thou.

[Tadaa]

Any info on the real reason Robert Sheehan left the show?

[glasvegas]

1) I'm loving Curtis so much this season.

2) I can't get over the way Seth treated his girlfriend after bringing her back from the dead. It has sort of ruined my enjoyment of Seth and the Seth/Kelly pairing. What an asshole.

I still love the couple thou. I think Seth resurrected his gf is to get over his guilt. Thumbs up for killing their 4th probation worker.

[glasvegas]

What was bugging me is that Seth just treated his dead gf like shit, toying with her in the most fucked up way. First he resurrects her instead of letting her rest in peace. She turns into a zombie because of him.

Then he tells her "sorry but I love Kelly now" and kills her? Like, as she's standing there confused and in pain? WTF? That is so cold. Besides, if she hadn't turned into a zombie, that means he would've stayed with her. Kelly was just his back up plan.

That definitely could have been handled in a more tactful way, I think. The writers just made Seth look like a creepy, self-serving asshole and it makes Kelly look desperate for taking him back.

I think it just make the show more realistic. He loves his girlfriend and she died because of him. He carries this guilt since she died and actively searching for ways to resurrect back his girlfriend. Kelly has a crush on him at first, he was hurt and lonely so he developed feelings for Kelly. And then, out of the blue, the guy found the power, I can see that he was hesitating, but he chosen Shannon over Kelly because he thinks he owned her a life. He started to regret once she was alive because he had moved on but feel oblige to stay with her because he started the whole resurrect crap. This scenario happens all the time in real life (not the resurrection thing.)

[glasvegas]

True, but I think the way she was killed was...so wrong.

I liked it better when Seth tried to kill her as she slept. It sounds weird but it would have been more considerate, she would have died a bit more peacefully. I mean, yeah, it would be violent still but at least she wouldn't have to hear that Seth didn't love her anymore seconds before her death.

Anyway, I still like Seth a lot and want him to stick around. So I'll get over it by next episode, I'm sure.

Yea, I think it was too harsh for her. She restrained herself from sucking his blood but I guess she wanted to end it this way, her charging towards a man with a shovel, she's asking for it. There's one thing I am confuse, Alisha should able to use her power to see where Seth is, but she didn't, instead of wasting the time searching for him. Weird.

And also, during the Nazi's episode, the old Jewish man and Kelly both went back to the past that they're not exist yet. I remember Curtis power doesn't work that way and the old Jewish man do it effortless. I guess the power works differently on different people.

[FuryOfFirestorm]

Episode 4 was fucking amazing. Love how the story played out. Kelly was super awesome and bad ass. She and Seth make a real cute couple. They can write off Simon. He's getting on my nerves.

"Fucking Nazis"

The only thing that pissed me off is why didn't the old man just go back to when Hitler was a baby and kill him then? Much easier and less chance of fucking up history like he did.

[glasvegas]

I think The Twilight Zone did that already, it turns out to be fucked up like it suppose to be. I think the writers want it to be interesting instead of repeating what others had did.

I remember that episode. Some chick went back in time and posed as a nanny for Hitler's parents. Then she kidnapped their baby and jumped off a bridge into the freezing river. Afterwards, Hitler's parents kill a gypsy, take her baby and raise it to become the hateful asshole we know as Adolph.

*cue "wah-wah" trumpet sound here*

[bostonboy20]

This last episode with the zombies was HILARIOUS!...LOVED IT!
