When five outsiders on community service get struck by a flash storm they end up lumbered with special powers. Hard-as-nails Kelly can suddenly hear people's thoughts, shamed sporting hero Curtis discovers he has the ability to turn back time, and party-girl Alisha can send people into a sexual frenzy when they touch her skin. Even painfully shy Simon can make himself invisible, which makes it all the more hard to swallow for smart-alec Nathan, who seems to have been unaffected... or has he? Unlike their more conventional counterparts, our misfits don't swap their ankle tags and mobile phones for capes and tights. Instead, they discover just how tough life can be when you're stuck with a super power you didn't want. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)

Misfits (2009)
The plot is basically a fully serious science fiction series about people with superpowers (like Heroes) that uses humour to avoid being logically bulletproof; humour that is very incorrect, harsh and vulgar, which is good. I’m liking the characters and their one-liners so far, and also each of the stories. Thanks to the humour, the show won’t have the same problems as Heroes (a tangled story with omnipotent characters, where all the logic has collapsed), but the excessive repetitiveness could be a problem. Most of the episodes follow the structure “villain of the week” + “one-liners” + “sex” + “time jump if someone dies”… “happy end”. But in the thirteen episodes so far, it’s still good. PS: I would give it five stars, but the incredible blunder in the script of the last episode (spoiler for the 2nd season finale: the characters know what the time travel erased in the previous episode) makes me go down, at least until the creators try to explain it in the next season. PS 2: Misfits without Nathan will be like... The Big Bang Theory without Sheldon… HIMYM without Barney… Esmeralda… without Esmeralda. That bad :-/
