czombosistvan There we can have answers to so many pressing questions: what if everybody gets superpowers, what happens with normal people if their main characteristics turn to superpowers, what if not only good things turn to superpowers, but creepy ones, as well? Misfits answers all those, besides having a bit sick, but awesome humour. There are some low points of course (to be precise the first halves of S03 and S04), but the whole show is a truly big shot. Give it a shot if you want to have a good laugh. Characters come and go during the show, but it does not hurt the quality of the show

The Original Spice Girl I can't really find any flaws in this. It's funny, violent, the effects are surprisingly good, and even when some of the cast are replaced (usually a show-killer) it remains brilliant! So if you, like me, are sick of Marvel, but still want to watch superheroes (or super anti-heroes in this case), this is what you want to watch!

Ahmet Kozan The season begins with the crippling blow of Robert Sheehan (who played the best character, Nathan and who often gave the show some much- needed humour) leaving the show and never really recovers, stumbling along adequately but never really finding its footing, unfortunately. Regardless, Misfits' third season is a sufficiently made, enjoyable slice of science fiction comedy-drama which is always great fun to watch, albeit Joe Gilgun can't fill Sheehan's size 55 shoes and that Hitler episode was so stupid. The finale is the best out of the three until the final moments, where stuff happens and we say goodbye to Kelly (the lovable Lauren Socha), Iwan Rheon's Simon (btw, he also sucks in Vicious) and Alisha, a slutty party girl with a heart of gold (Antonia Thomas), which is too much to take. I can't watch it anymore. I may watch a compilation of Nathan's best moments on YouTube to make me feel better, however. The first season is extremely witty, dark, quirky, and hilarious. The series manages to blend plot and humour almost flawlessly. Although the latter seasons are not as good as the former it still manages to hold your attention.Season 2 of Misfits is my favorite season of Misfits. Season 2 is the best due to the great humour (which is still present in the other seasons, but in this season it is at it's best).Season 3 is the second best season of Misfits. In my opinion, Rudy is not as good as Nathan, but he still is a great character, and one of the best. I especially enjoyed the zombie cheerleader episode. 8/10

original_fuzzball First things first: Watch the first two seasons of this amazingly quirky obnoxious show! I quickly fell in love with the Misfits and could not wait to watch each episode!So why did I give this show a 7? Because you can't rate individual seasons.Seasons 1 & 2 are absolutely amazing! If this show had ended after season 2 I would rate it (overall) right up there with Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones as some of the best TV to come out in a long time. However it did not end, it went on for several more seasons and some of the magic was lost IMO.SPOILER ALERT (minor/semi-big spoiler coming but no names)When we lose one of the original cast at the end of season 2 (note: I'm not saying death or not death, nor *who* is gone just that someone is gone), season 3 loses just a little bit of the magic that the show had in seasons 1 & 2. That said there was still solid chemistry amongst the Misfits, and some great writing for season 3. If the show had ended at the end of season 3, I could have still rated it a very solid 9. Maybe 9.5.SPOILER ALERT (the next spoilers are BIG, still no names)Season 4 kind of falls apart. We lose more of the original cast and It feels like the writers are trying to replace those that have gone with almost the same archetypes and it just doesn't work. The cast of season 4 does not have the chemistry that existed in the first 3 seasons. Further, the one remaining original cast member turns very 1-dimensional,(here comes the big SPOILER I warned about - still no names)so much that when this character dies, I wasn't really that sad. Had this character died in any of the first 3 seasons I would have been screaming at my television begging that it didn't happen. However that was not the case. It was a bit sad, but more sad was that the character had really been turned into more of prop or anchor to try to hold together the new cast. It was a real shame, because I really liked this character, especially the character's growth during season 3.I'm writing this review without having seen the 5th (final) season. I don't know if I will watch it. I've basically forced myself through the 4th season. Had the 4th season been the first season of this show, it would have been cancelled and no one would be writing about it IMHO. Really it's nothing special. I might watch season 5 kind of like the same reason you slow down to gawk at an accident on the road, but I have very very low expectations at this point.That said, don't let my sourness on the later seasons stop you. Watch the first 3 seasons. There is a solid story and you will feel like you saw something worthwhile. After that, you can decide if you want to dip your toe into seasons 4 & 5. Who knows, maybe the cast changes will work for you, then again maybe not.UPDATE: I decided to watch season 5 after all, I just *needed* to see how this show would end. While I still feel Season 4 is a train wreck and the cast does not have the chemistry that existed in the first 3 seasons, I do have to say that season 5 got better. I'll still stick to my overall rating, but I have to admit I was totally busting a gut during the Season 5 final episode!
