FCE Task: Review (Misfits) One of the latest series that I have been watching is Misfits, a show in which we can see dramma and commedy mixed with supernatural elements. At the beginning of the series a weird storm takes place in the town and affects the protagonists and several other people, who develop different powers. The main characters are a group of youngsters that have been condemned to do community service, so most of the action occurs in the community service center and its surroundings, therefore the locations are not specially interesting. The plot is not fascinating neither as there are not unexpected twists, although being fair, it changes for the better during the second season. In addition, I would not allow children to see it, as some scenes have sexual or violent content. Despite all of this negative aspects the series has a significant advantage for spanish speakers, as the actors have very different accents. My conclusion is that this is an average show with nothing remarkable, but I would recommend that you see it if you aim to improve your english listening skills.
