Misfits four is winding up.
I think.
I'm rubbish at knowing how many episodes a programme has, only that I am disappointed when ir ends if I like it. British "series" are typically 6 episodes. Misfits bucks that trend.

How to describe Misfits to those who have not seen?
Filthy. Dirty language, thoughts and actions. Extreme and random violence. Unpleasant characters. Dark humour. And emotional hooks if you can get beyond the former.

How to explain Misfits to those who have not seen?
Screwed up people get super-powers in a random fashion. Our story at least follows people that already know eachother, but have been discarded by society, trying to do the best they can. They are not heroes. They have baggage and a past. And fuck me can they swear.

Misfits is extremely funny, rude, explicit, violent and sometimes complicated.
Please watch it.
