Misfits: Another cracking episode!
I have to crow a bit because I totally called Kelly's beau's secret way before it became obvious. Not from any clues, necessarily, it just flashed into my mind. Excellent, unexpected twist.
Everyone did a great job, though I wish they'd gone for different casting of the new girl's dad. The outcome was obvious from the second I saw that actor. He's played that role elsewhere.
Still. Lovin' you Show. Well done!

All the talk in here prompted me to start watching Misfits last night. I'd been planning to, but kept putting it off. IO watched the first four episodes in arow last night *yawn*.
I'm super enjoying it, obviously. Wondering slightly why there's randomly an Irish guy with no mention of him being Irish at any point. Also, Kelly's accent is what I hear most of the time on the buses where I live, except she doesn't say 'safe' and 'innit' as much as she could.
I feel like there's a lot of HSQ coming up so I'm going to try and catch up to date over the weekend so I don't get spoiled.

You are going to have a really fun weekend, Jars. The HSQ is definitely on the way.
It's true that Nathan's nationality is never really mentioned. But then, neither are some other Welsh and Scots accents made mention of.
I know what 'innit' means, but what does 'safe' mean?
Kids these days, I tell ya. I'm still not used to the trans-definition use of 'sick' here. How did that come to mean a good thing?

I first heard it in US urban culture, so I guess it spread!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm reading that thinking "trans people use 'sick' in a different way?" It's still early. I should eat breakfast.

I read that way too at first, ita.

Heh. On reread, I do too...but no, just an unfortunate attempt at being clever. No biscuit me.
I still don't know what 'safe' is supposed to mean though. Or, is there no hip interpretation?
