I did pretty well in the fannish Christmas present stakes this year: the latest Doctor Who, Sherlock, every radio series of The HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy, all of which I had asked for. The surprise gift in the fannish stocking was from my sister who gave me series 1 of Misfits - she raves about the show, much to my surprise as she normally doesn't go for the genre stuff, but I'd never seen it. (Though I spotted [livejournal.com profile] monanotlisa giving it a thumbs up a while back too and was intrigued.)

Watched the first three episodes tonight and the hype was spot on! Funny, off-beat, surprisingly brutal, a bit dark, pleasingly unpredictable and a whole hell of a lot of fun. I would happily rec it to anyone else who managed to miss the boat on it - can't wait to see where it goes.

SNAP! My series 1-2 box set of MisFits arrived yesterday. I haven't watched an ep yet but am very intrigued. Hoping it doesn't disappoint.

Well, I'm not disappointed so far. I hope you enjoy it too when you get around to watching.

I am highly entertained by what I've seen of it. The only bit of plot I've managed to predict so far is the old lady reveal in the second episode - saw that coming (pun intended).
