shapinglightHmm, not so sure I liked this one.
'Course, this being Misfits, it had its moments. I shall sort of miss the probation worker, but it does amuse me that the Misfits have managed to dispose of yet another one. And how many bodies is that now under the flyover? Five? Six? I've lost count. Also, I was so glad to see Curtis turn into Mel again. I thought we might not see her again, given that this season seems to have so little to do with the Misfits' actual powers. It's almost as if the Simon/Alisha episode with the creepy comic book boy put the lid on that - so much so that I was with the probation worker when (his last words) he sneered at the very idea of the Misfits as superheroes.
The story itself was sad and creepy, verging occasionally on the sentimental, but Lauren Socha was brilliant, I thought. Also, Seth and Simon kidnapping Jen's body from the hospital was hilarious in a sick, wrong kind of way.
What did other people think?
