Misfits

[€uroMeinke]

Now that we got rid of cable in place of Netfix & Hulu+ I've become obsessed with the UK series Misfits (http://www.e4.com/misfits/).

I never really clicked with the whole super hero genre but I love this telling of acquiring "powers" that sometimes play out as more lame than super - lactokinesis anyone? Anyway I love the raunchy humor and the irreverent tales that could only be told on the other side of the pond.

Anyone else a fan? waiting for the next show to air on hulu? or contemplating what lame super power you might have? I'm thinking mine involves a cocktail shaker.

I'm in the second series now. I was unsure after the first couple episodes but stuck with it and it really grew on me (at first I wasn't sure if it was going to do anything interesting or just be irreverent).

I've been hearing some cries that the third series has seen a dropoff but I've been avoiding those conversations so as not to be spoiled.

We are 2 episodes into the 3rd series. I'm still wowed by it. I'm as surprised as anyone that I could become obsessed with a show that is described like this one. NOT my general cup of tea. But, obsessed I am and thoroughly enjoying it.

Can't remember the name of it, but here is a movie coming out soon about a group of teenagers who get superpowers and are dicks about it. It didn't look all that good, but now that I've been watching Misfits I have a glimmer of hope.

Bad Kids go to Hell?

Bad sign, I saw the trailer for the movie I mentioned in the theater yesterday and several times on TV and I still can't remember the title.

So I just looked it up. Chronicle

lactokinesis anyone?I would love that power!

[Moonliner]

I would love that power!

I'm sure you would milk it for all it's worth...

[SzczerbiakManiac]

I don't care what others may say, it's not a cheesy power.

[JWBear]

But having it might turn sour after awhile.

[SzczerbiakManiac]

I stilton think it's a gouda idea.

[Morrigoon]

More pins? Oh, what's to brie camembert of us???

[JWBear]

This discussion is udder-ly ridiculous!

[SzczerbiakManiac]

Bah! I knew someone would kowtow to the udder pun.

[JWBear]

Don't you mean "COWtow"?
