Misfits Season 3 **Spoilers**

This thread will contain spoilers, so only read if you are up to date with the current episode being discussed

Thought it would be a good idea to keep the discussion of the current season separate, for an open discussion.

Saw the pre-air last night and it was pretty excellent. The effect of Lucy shapeshifting was extremely well done and loved that she was trying to turn them all against each other. Interesting that the "ninja" seems to know all about them. Was there any inclination of them in the first season I wonder?

Did anyone else laugh when they killed their new probation worker? Simon's outbursts when Alisha touches him are just hilarious - "I want to shove my cock into your hairy armpit"

Reminder for anyone that forgot it!

IT's on now.

He's only after getting out of the grave, won't ruin how, but it was obvious.

Stumbled upon the Misfits about 2 months ago and watched all of season 1 in one go as couldn't stop myself.

It's awesome!!

Sickened that I won't have access to it tonight. So I'll probably have to avoid this thread and the other one just in case..... though in fairness I accidentally found out the ending of season 1 before I'd started watching the full series >.< Definitely do NOT want that happening in any shape of form this time.

Will it be up on the channel 4 website tomorrow so I can check it out?

Me too! Lav it! It is so good!

*bump*

Johner

Have to say so far it has been brilliant. Loving it!

KeanSeenan

Ruth Negga seems to be in the next episode, interesting as she's in Love/Hate with Nathan.

Misfits is the new black.

Yep the ninja already made an appearance in season1 when he rescued Nathanial from the grey kids on his BMX.


"We got to stop killing our probation workers"
"Hey cornettos"
Cut to icecream licking body dumping boat scene.

Nathanial gets the best lines.
Irish and annoying is cool .......... at last.:D

Gerty

Thought it was good, Interested to know were they go with it.

Suprised by the lack of interest in it on here.

So am I, one of the best shows on TV IMHO. Ran home from work to see it.

Nathan is a legend, his lines are terrific. But I think the show would be lost without Simon, he drives the drama, and the actor is perfect.

British drama has an awful tendency to go off the rails altogether after one awesome season, so I was very relieved that this episode was so great. It's funnier, smarter and meaner than just about anything else on television and the characters are deceptively nuanced. It's great to see it hasn't lost any of it's savage humour either - I laughed out loud the whole way through, Nathan's triumphant return had me in stitches.

I'd forgotten how tense it could be, I mean whenever they focus on how easily they could all get caught they really ratchet it up. The bit where they realised they'd all been talking to fake Nathan was intense.

Moved a bunch of season 2 related threads here from the other 'Misfits' thread.

Thought it was a great opener!

madrab

Yeah really enjoyed it

"You didnt **** yourself!"
"Well thats a plus"

"Cock, armpit...it wasnt pretty"

Awesome :-)

Chinafoot

Loved it! The opening was brilliant. Super intense free-running ninja and then Kelly getting smacked in the face with the paper airplane :P

The writing is top notch and while Nathan and Kelly are definitely my favourites, I do agree that Simon is definitely the key player. Curtis is still very much 'meh' for me. The guy isn't a great actor tbh.

New probabtion worker is good (and slightly sexy :P).

Loved the character of Lucy. She was so creepy looking. I like that they seem to have a bigger budget but are very much keeping to what made it great in the first place and not replying solely on the special effects.

Roll on next week!

Season 2 kicked off brilliantly

RibenaHead

Loved it! Kept the adrenaline pumping the whole way through. Favourite line had to be:

"I have feelings... And so does my cock!"

Killer_banana

Loved it, although I was a bit disappointed that Nathan being legally dead was cleared up so easily but I expected that anyway. It was so cute when the dug him up and Kelly heard him think 'I thought I'd never see her again.' Was disappointed they didn't 'seal the deal' but I suppose the writer's going to keep them from anything close to a relationship for as long as possible.

When they killed the probation worker I was like 'For the love of God, Curtis better rewind time.'

'For the first time in my life I feel like I belong.'
'You murdered your probation worker.'
'I didn't say it was perfect.'
I love how they plated this scene completely straight.

Superhoodie (although now he's got a mask and whatnot he needs a better name) is in a few videos 'recorded by Simon' on the e4 site as well as appearing in the season finale. A lot of people seems to think he's one of them from the future trying to make sure history takes the proper course but that doesn't sound right to me for some reason.

Can't wait for next week. Trailer looks interesting. I wonder if

their powers will stay reversed for just the episode or will it be all series.

I was laughing my arse off when they killed the new probation worker... and the cornettos.
It's funny how many un-PC comments they can get away with since it's in character for all of them.

ToniTuddle

Have no access to E4 so have to wait until it is uploaded to 4 on Demand.

Just watched it and I couldn't be more friggin happy.
Laughed my ass off when they killed the probabtion dude

Thought the oral sex scene was going to be some dream or something!!

Adore Simon and Nathan
Countdown to next week begins!

MarcusFenix

misfits FTW, at last thursday has something to look forward to again!!

They really do tread on some fine lines alright!!

Fantastic season opener. I love that Nathan is still calling Simon, "Barry"... It was one of my favourite bits from last season's finale.
New probabtion worker is great - pissed myself when they killed him, but glad that Curtis managed to prevent it from happening the second time. The cornettos when dumping the body was absolute genius.
Glad that they're not just gonna throw Nathan and Kelly together straight away - I think its better that they're dragging that out.
Would be great to see a proper friendship develop between Nathan and Simon this season.
Can't say that I care too much about Curtis or Alisha - I don't dislike them, but its just about the other 3 for me. Having said that, I think if they develop both characters more this season, they could become much better.

Next week's episode looks brilliant -

"We're like the Mitchell brothers"...

tok9

Absolutely love this show. Best thing on tv at the moment for me.

Something tells me Nathan is going to die a good few times this season.

Is it still only 6 episodes long?

Yeah I'd say they will kill him few times...looking forward to seeing how they do though

Only 6 episodes.....which means only 5 left.....Balls

Does it all depend on ratings if they get a further series?

Plus a xmas special.

jill_valentine

I think given how inventive the show has been so far - and it's totally warped sense of humour - that whoever had the idea of giving them a Christmas special must surely be some kind of mad genius.

EDIT: Just watching the episode again, I love the fact that they're all eating Cornettos in the boat. And did Nathan somehow acquire a tattoo on his wrist in his time underground?

Also, off-topic, I really enjoy seeing Captain Negative's moustache moustache every time I open up this thread.

He had the tattoo in season 1 as well. I think its a stupid looking tattoo for a guy - I'd imagine he regrets getting that done.

Try having a moustache every time you look in the mirror. I feel like a 1950's villain.

Asphyxia

Only 6 episodes that's not enough Really loved the opening of season two, Nathan is a legend I hope a friendship develops between himself and Simon :rolleyes:

muserock

Misfits is great, hasn't been ay decent shows around in awhile which I'd atch on a weekly basis. anyone have any theories about who the hooded character is? I think it might be a woman

ToniTuddle

What's the deal with the clocks at the start all over the hooded persons wall.

He has photos of them all and different clocks associated with them as far as I can tell, kept chopping and changing so you couldn't see fully.

Maybe they will loose their powers once the clocks stop counting down?

Must watch it again.

Was that in the first episode? Must have missed it

ToniTuddle

Yeah at the very start!!

I thought that they were count down to major events. The very first thing was a clock countdown and the even to fly the airplane was immediately afterwards.

The person could have been given the power of omniscience or near it, can see how the world works and how to push it in certain directions - hence needing all players alive for some possible event in the future?

jill_valentine

Something I just wondered: At what point did Lucy start impersonating Kelly? Before or after Kelly told Nathan they'd have sex that night?

phasers

I think before, Kelly seemed to have absolutely no idea what Nathan was on about

Definitely before.

jill_valentine

Makes sense, ta.

I hope they resolve the Superhoody thing soon enough, tbh, I think it would be strained if they tried to carry it much further - I don't think it's any of the characters we've seen already, so I don't have much of a stake in seeing them UnStigged.

Can't remember the last time I was actually waiting for the next episode of anything on actual television. Weird.

Long gone are the days when tv was really awesome and you actually wanted to stay in weekends due to great things being on!

Least we have the odd gems like this show once in a blue moon.

Never watched this before and then started watching season 1 on friday and absolutely love it, Nathan is absolutely brilliant. This is by far my favourite show now!

It usually goes up on 4od at 11 tonight.

Looking forward to tonights episode, seems a decent premise and Super Hoodie looks like he'll feature fairly prominently.

RibenaHead

Thought tonight's episode was a bit of a let down after last week's episode!

I really enjoyed it, though the opposite powers were very interesting, especially barry's where everyone notices him.
Honestly didnt see the sixth sense moment coming, can kinda guess what was happening in the forwward time travel bit though

wil

Phew found a thread Love this show,i've been watching since the start of series one,forgot to look on here though Loved tonights episode,what's going on with ninja guy though...how come he can touch Alisha? Is it just the gloves i wonder...I've a feeling that it's a girl though for some reason. Not sure if it's the girl in the flat & flashforward.The whole kelly/nathan storyline is brilliant,they're so suited. Liked how simon was 'extra visible' as an opposite to invisibility. I wonder if they take pills again will their powers reverse...or did nathans brother get them from ninja guy/girl? Or actually what came to me tonight...could the probation officer know about them...there's just something about him that's not right.I thought for a minute he might be the ninja but i think he's too tall...or is he?

Ross_Mahon

Misfits just keeps getting better, The new characters and darker setting is interesting, For anyone wondering about the name of the song at the party, Its The Chemical Brothers - Swoon (Boys Noize Remix)

Agree it was every bit as good as last week. Plenty to speculate. Kind of doubt the ninja is the new girl, even though ninja seems to have dark skin like her, not as dark or tall as Curtis, but I'd say she is too short and she was asleep on the sofa when ninja walked through. Wonder will the dead return later?

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Loved that. Have to watch it again though as people kept distracting me when I was trying to watch it...
