Misfits follows five early-20s delinquents on community service in Wertham (a fictional borough in London), who are caught outside during an electrical thunder storm and acquire special powers.

I guess you could say it's similar to "Heroes" but a much cooler British version.

This show has quickly become an obsession for me. As far as I know it is only available on Hulu, which has the first 2 seasons. The 3rd is in filming right now, I believe. Anyone watch the show yet?

Also, the soundtrack is fucking amazing. You can find a list of each song with scene breakdown here (http://www.misfitsmusic.co.uk/index.php).

Got turned on to this by Hulu promos and MP's recommendation. i watched 4 episodes into season 2 (all hulu had at the time). Love it. Fun show with a very charismatic cast and agreed on the music selection.

I like it.

Thought of this show when I heard all those young London rioters were given community service.

They did a great job with this show. Each character is so endearing in their own way. It's not watered down. Such fun club scenes that make me want to go to London and take drugs. Save the superhero part, I find it pretty relatable.

I need to watch it, I've got recs from so many trusted sources. It's on my list after re-watching Star Trek (I am a dumb stupid dork-o).

Yes you do! But make sure you either have self control or hours to spend in front of the computer. It's hard to stop watching when you have a dozen episodes at your disposal.

She is by far my favorite character. And, you're right. Sometimes I have NO clue what she is saying.
