Misfits: Series Four

Anton van Beek  |  Mar 1, 2013

It's a case of out with the old and in with the new for this super-powered series

E4's 'superheroes with ASBOs' show finds itself trapped in a transitional point as old characters leave and a host of newcomers are introduced. It's therefore not always smooth sailing, lacking the cohesive storytelling of earlier runs – but still funny and filthy.

This three-disc set serves up appealingly bright and detailed AVC 1.78:1 1080i encodes for all eight episodes, although it's a shame that the DTS-HD MA audio is limited to a 2.0 mix. A bonus disc houses the extras – these include behind-the-scenes featurettes and eight puppet-based spoof vignettes.
