Nathan, Kelly, Simon, Alisha and Curtis were expecting their community service to be boring. However after a freak thunderstorm they discover that it is anything but dull. Bestowed with strange powers, the five very different teens realize they have a lot more to worry about than just picking up litter, especially as they discover that they are not the only ones who have been given strange powers. Secrets will be revealed, feelings brought to the surface and relationships formed and broken. But hey, its only 6 weeks of community service; what's the worst that could happen?


IMDB rated 9 out of 10 :thumbsup:

Kinda but much more edgy. I like it better than Heroes and I was a fan. I would say in a way Heroes would be Misfits lite.

No problem, I was bored and it was highly rated on Hulu so I said what the hell, now I am hooked.

As an American I found some of the accents a bit hard to follow but very well written and well executed.

Coincidentally, we had a write up about this show in our local paper today.They compared it to Heroes and mentioned it's much more serious, there's profanity etc.

Looks good :thumbsup:

I like the show. I don't think Robert Sheehan is returning for the next season. If you guys need help understanding certain phrases let me know. Some of the accents are quite strong.

Sheehan is the young curly headed 'talker' guy?

Yep he's the cheeky Irish chappy. He'll keep you entertained for the first two seasons at least; S02E02 in particular (I think) :giggle:

The first episode in season 2 was great...miles beyond any of the first season activities.
