COMMENTS:
Misfits definitely recommended specially to young people, the different backgrounds, accents, acting and drama, intrigue and funny moments give it a series you just hooked on, it´s really good humour and very sharp specially from Nathan the inmortal one, but you have to watch the two seasons to see how clever and good it is.
