Sorry folks. I just didn’t get this one. I gave The Misfits the good old 3 episode try but I just didn’t dig it. It reminded me too much of Heroes and there wasn’t enough of a mystery for me to care.
If you want to give The Misfits a chance, it’s streaming for free on Hulu.
I understand where you’re coming from based on what you saw from the first three episodes. However, this show does get much better and it has a couple of very cool mystery type plot lines that play out through the first few seasons. Worth a look if you have the time.
Thanks for sharing all the reviews that you do!
Thanks Kevin. I’ll give it another chance someday. Do you think you will watch the American version of The Misfits?
Myself and two friends do a weekly genre TV podcast, Tuning in to SciFi TV, so I’m sure I’ll check it out.
I’m a HUGE fan of the UK version of Being Human so I wasn’t that interested in the US version but once I checked it out it turned out to be pretty good on it’s own so I try to keep an open mind.
I confess I’ve never watched Misfits, but I can vouch for Kevin on the TIST podcast. I’ve been a regular listener for a couple years now, and it’s terrific. Kevin also does a B-movie podcast that I listen to sometimes even though I’m not a regular B-movie fan.
I think I’m lucky at starting with the US version. That way when I give the UK version a shot, I’ll go nowhere but up!
I’m not in a rush to start on The Misfits again. Maybe I’ll watch it in retirement. You’ll get that review in about 40 years.
