It has come to my attention that many of you are missing out yet again on some real quality TV viewing. That is to say a british sci-fi/comedy best described as a cross of heroes meets the young ones with a touch of monty python - that has yet to be americanized and watered down for your viewing :devil
May I present to you Misfits:
(http://blogs.independent.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/misfits-2.jpg)
Basically its about a bunch of kids who get superpowers during a strange electrical storm. But these superpowers aren't your off the shelf hollywood stuff.
No we're talking things like:
- lactokenetic powers over milk (fair more dangerous than you might think)
- the ability to shapeshift between the male and female version of yourself (some interesting issues around getting oneself pregnant while alternately ... err pleasuring oneselfs versions)
- the ability to swap genitalia
- seeing the world as video game
- turning people bald
- ability to turn yourself young (for short periods of time)
- time travel (hitler getting a liverpool kiss is hilarious)
- superpower std that makes genitalia fall off
- resurrection power (but anything you bring back is a 'zombie')
Scenes like the 'love scene' with the blind girl, gladwrap, rubber band and telepathic seeing eye dog are some of the highlights of the series :D (one for FiLTH)
Anyhoo, thus ends this public service announcement for americans deprived of real tv :D

I knew Tupac was still alive :old:
And standing next to Matt Damon! :old:

Great show, watched Seasons 1-3 as soon as they were updated on Hulu. Having a very hard time getting myself to watch season 4 since it seems Curtis is the only character still there from the original season.

show was great the first couple seasons....getting rid of the guy who made the show wasn't smart though.
