A serial killer whose weapon is milk! That was bloody freaky, although I suspect biologically impossible. (Surely the milk in the victim’s systems wouldn’t stay milk for that long?) Did the Misfits actually kill him at the end? I wouldn’t blame them if they did, but all we saw was one punch.
I love Simon/Alesha. Although I can’t believe they’re actually living in a place that looks like an underground car park. But they work together so well, and I hope they get to go to Vegas…
Simon continues to be probably the most interesting character, and this is a truly badass shot:
Nathan has a girlfriend, and he seems to be in love with her! Actually I loved those two as well, Marnie’s a perfect match for him, they’re both sex-obsessed, vulgar egomanaics. (In the most awesome way of course, Nathan’s brilliant.) I hope they stay together, and having the baby will (maybe) teach Nathan some responsibility. Oh, and the whole birth scene was both touching and utterly hilarious. No-one stamped on an afterbirth in the actual Nativity…
Nikki’s dead, then! I can’t say I’m all that bothered, because she wasn’t the most three-dimensional character around and seemed to only be there so the camera could linger on her having sex with Curtis in disgusting bathrooms. Curtis seemed determined to bring her back, though, so maybe she’ll show up again…
Kelly didn’t get to do much. I wonder what her new power will be. (Or if she’ll stick with the old one) I don’t blame Alesha for giving up her power, it was rubbish. Curtis, though, I can’t believe anyone would give up the power to rewind time!
Now there’s a whole year until the next series. :(
I am really liking this show! I’m kinda surprised that more of a fandom hasn’t sprung up. I mean, look at the extreme slashiness between Nathan and just about everybody!
Who do I like? I really like Alisha, she’s my favourite. I like Simon too. And I like them together. I strongly suspect though, that they won’t get a happy ending, because Simon’s…already dead. And when he finally gets it together and realises Alisha’s in love with him, he’ll have to go back in time again to stop her from dying and…die. You know, he’s gonna die no matter what happens because it’s part of the timeline now. Has this confused you? It’s bloody confused me.
LOVE the super-costumes!
“I don’t want to get come on my dress.” Who the fuck thinks that is anything approaching a romantic line? Nikki, right? Can’t stand her.
Was it ever explained why Jessica’s father, um, has red eyes and does that freaky face thing when he kills people? What’s his superpower?
I totally love the idea that an animal could get superpowers- in this case, the power to turn into a human. It really really shouldn’t have worked, and it did! And Nathan didn’t even make a ‘ha, you shagged a monkey’ joke to Kelly at the end. Good boy.
Anyone here been watching Misfits? I’ve never seen the first series, and I didn’t think I’d like this one, but I’m really liking it. Especially the time-travel romance, which is really cleverly done, and that Nathan manages to be just the right side of annoying.
