Written and created by Howard Overman (Merlin), Misfits took
home the 2010 BAFTA TV Award for Drama Series and continues to earn
international acclaim. The provocative show GQ called “outstanding” proves that
superpowers, hormones and court-ordered community service are an entertaining
mix.
Kelly (BAFTA-winner Lauren Socha), Nathan (Robert Sheehan, The
Borrowers, Season of the Witch), Curtis (Nathan
Stewart-Jarrett), Alisha (Antonia Thomas), and Simon (Iwan Rheon) are five
unruly teenagers forced to do community service as payback for their crimes. But when a freak electrical storm
hits their town, strange things begin to happen to the gang as they discover
that they have each developed a superpower, one that reveals their deepest,
darkest insecurities. Though they just want to finish their
community service and get through the challenges of everyday teenage life -
relationships, friendships, parents and sex - fate has another task in store
for them: they must save their town from the evil that has descended upon it.
With abilities ranging from invisibility to hearing people’s thoughts, these
young malcontents are going to learn that having great power sure can get in
the way of having a great time.
In 2011, Misfits premiered exclusively in the
U.S. on Hulu and Hulu Plus, and is launching on Logo starting July 19, 2012. In
