Synopsis

TV Series (2009-2013). 5 seasons. 37 episodes. Misfits follows five social outcasts who, while performing community service, are struck by a freak thunderstorm and gifted with special powers. Tough Kelly (Lauren Socha) can suddenly hear people's thoughts, Curtis (Nathan Stewart Jarrett) discovers he has the ability to go back in time, and party girl Alisha (Antonia Thomas) can whip up a sexual frenzy when her skin is touched. Even shy Simon (Iwan Rheon) can turn invisible when he feels he's being ignored, making it even harder to stomach for smart-ass Nathan (Robert Sheehan), who seems unaffected by any superpower.

Critics' reviews

"[4h Season Review]: Based on the first episode, I'm optimistic, though not yet wildly so."

Rowan Kaiser: AV Club
"[4h Season Review]: 'Misfits' has a knack of surprising everyone and, as usual, I'm looking forward to seeing what's in store."

Caroline Preece: Den of Geek
"[3rd Season Review]: Fans need not fear however, as snarky, big-mouthed Nathan has been replaced by snarky, big-mouthed Rudy."

Chris Tilly: IGN
"[2nd Season Review]: Powered by great characters - and a top soundtrack - it's still occasionally shocking, often surprising and always very, very funny."

IGN
"[2nd Season Review]: This is the perfect jumping on point for new viewers and remains a fresh new take on the increasingly bloated arena of genre TV."

Den of Geek
"[2nd Season Review]: It feels like over the break between the seasons, the producers, writers, actors, and crew polished all the rough edges away. Every line feels just a little bit funnier."

Rowan Kaiser: AV Club
"The attempt to be both a comedy and a drama doesn't always work (...) but 'Misfits' has enough going for it to snare aficionados of the odd"
