This is not a comedy, although there are some funny lines, but E4 (Channel 4's offshoot) premiered a fantastic series tonight -
Misfits (TV channel website). I was all prepared to hate it - a series about teens (more like twenty-somethings) with ASBOs that get super-powers? Hello?
No Heroics without the jokes and
Being Human with attitude? Get some original material, yeah [sucks teeth].
But it was bloody good. The rest of the series might be pants of course, but the set-up was almost pitch-perfect. And I loved that there is a Midlands girl in there - Kelly. She sounds propp-ah Lest-ah. I give myself a 30 miles radius of inaccuracy of course
Thoroughly recommended if you can get it elsewhere. I've Sky-Plused it, as thankfully Thursday nights are relatively TV free in this house (Monday nights are a nightmare!)
But now I have to go back and watch my fave
No Heroics episode. How did that slip under their radar for re-commissioning? It was grand. And yes, I'll be watching the one with Fusebox in again. It's not my fault. I'm reading a biography of Derek Jarman. He's influencing me from beyond the curtain.
