Alisha's actress has confirmed she's not coming back, in the short term at least. As for Simon... I just don't see it. Not sure how they can justify him coming back given he's gone back in time solely in order to die there. (Unless they pull something out...)Woodsey said:I was surprised to hear they're doing a new series, but unlike other shows of a somewhat similar nature that really hit the shit by their fourth series (alright there, Skins?), its remained great. Love Rudy too.
A friend of mine reckons Simon (and possibly Alisha) will come back, which I'd be inclined to agree with, if only because they'd need at least one new cast member (assuming Seth bumps up to a lead).
I agree the powers could have been better - I think they're just wary of backing themselves into a corner. Curtis' time travel, for instance, would presumably become easier to control, and so its harder to write in any danger in if he can rewind all the time.
No. She's a "fooking rocket scientist". It's not the same thing. She always was intelligent and perceptive; behind her brash exterior she's often been the one to notice things and figure out things others didn't. The power is being super smart, plus a massive intuitive knowledge and ability with physics, chemistry, engineering, electronics, computers... all the skills a real rocket designer would need. You see it when she's fixed cars and overridden alarm systems.omega 616 said:Kelly was super smart
It's not a power though, that was my point.ms_sunlight said:No. She's a "fooking rocket scientist". It's not the same thing.

You think about what she could do with that. It's a brilliant power.
You're correct, she was not using it to its full potential, but imagine what she could achieve if she did. It's the sort of power you need to grow into!omega 616 said:It's not a power though, that was my point.
I know her "power" was a rocket scientist but any electrically trained person could do what Kelly has done so far, well except for the first episode when she was kicked out of a meeting ... that rocket kicked ass but a small fix on Seth's car and shutting an alarm down isn't exactly pushing her power.
It's still not a power, it's like the matrix ... somebody filled her head full of electrical know how, like how somebody filled Trinity's head with how to fly a helicopter.ms_sunlight said:You're correct, she was not using it to its full potential, but imagine what she could achieve if she did.

As an American fan of this show, first let me say: "DO NOT MAKE AN AMERICAN REMAKE!"Veldt Falsetto said:So, now that Misfits series 3 is over and series 4 is in the production process, what do people wanna see in series 4?
I hate the current powers of the gang and wanna see them take on something new.
As for our American friends...I dunno if you've even had this programme aired over there. If so, I'd like to see where you are and what you wanna see in the following series or if you have a remake or the original english version?
Pull something out like him not being such a fucking idiot and diving in front of a bullet he could easily have prevented? It's not like he didn't see it coming, he's come back from the fucking future! Why not just make sure it never happens? Sure, the future might change, but honestly how much would be different if Superhoodie battered the GTA guy and then disappeared forever?tomtom94 said:Alisha's actress has confirmed she's not coming back, in the short term at least.

And how exactly is that not a power?!omega 616 said:It's still not a power, it's like the matrix ... somebody filled her head full of electrical know how, like how somebody filled Trinity's head with how to fly a helicopter.
Do what naturally? People don't do a Jesus and rise from the dead all the time, you know?SonicWaffle said:And how exactly is that not a power?!omega 616 said:It's still not a power, it's like the matrix ... somebody filled her head full of electrical know how, like how somebody filled Trinity's head with how to fly a helicopter.
She has an innate understanding of electronics, without having to learn or study. She can look at them and understand how they work despite previously knowing shit all about it. That's like saying that Nathan's immortality isn't a power because "they just do it naturally"
No, but it's not something he uses, is it? It's something that happens to him. Like Kelly's rocket science, it's a passive ability - she can't stop herself from understanding machines just like he can't stop himself from resurrecting.omega 616 said:Do what naturally? People don't do a Jesus and rise from the dead all the time, you know?
The power isn't just the knowledge, it's the understanding. That's why she can look at new and unfamiliar machinery and figure it out almost instantly, with that weird purple highlight to show she's using a power rather than just remembering it.omega 616 said:It isn't a power, a power would be something like you learn at an insane rate ... like johnny 5 from short circuit reading a book. At the moment she is no better than a savant, it's a gift not a power.
