Misfits, Series One

[redbrunja]

So I just finished the first season/serious of Misfits. At the moment, I don't have any thoughts that are burning to get out into the ether but if you, like me, have watched this show seduce people on your flist and are on the fence about giving it a try, here are some things you might want to know before making a choice (pretty unspoilery):

1.) Tone. It's dark but not bleak. This show isn't going to make you feel warm and fuzzy inside but it's also not going to kill your soul.

2.) This may say more about me than I should admit but I did not find Simon as creepy as I expected too.

3.) FANTASTIC MUSIC. Seriously, I would have watched this show a lot sooner if I'd know how great the music choices are.

4.) This show does not have a hot cast (excluding two main cast members and two reoccurring secondary characters). However, as you get to know the characters and get attached, their attractiveness grows.

5.) Brace yourself for the accents.

Every time I introduce my friends to this show, their first reaction is, "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT KELLY GIRL SAYING." I've watched the entire first season and every episode of the second season so far, and it's still hard to understand her sometimes.

Love the show, though, and I'm glad you gave it a try and enjoyed it! :)

Yeah, most of the time I can figure it out, but even so... I find it less than pleasant to listen to.
