"I loved this quirky British fantasy series that follows a group of young criminal offenders that gain powers during a freak lightning storm. Nathan, played by Robert Sheehan, was my favorite character. His brash, mouthy, and unapologetically obscene demeanor really was a standout for me. So I was disappointed when he left the show after season 2. But Hallelujah, Joseph Gilgun (of Preacher fame) joined the cast as Rudy and was a perfect fit. He is just as hysterically offensive and seamlessly filled the void. All the main characters are great but it's cool to see a younger Iwan Rheon (from Game of Thrones) in his role as Simon.
Most of the episodes are wildly imaginative, but a few are just silly. The first 3 seasons are epic but I started to lose interest during season 4 and I have yet to finish it. I plan to make the time to see it through to the completion of season 5. Definitely worth viewing if you like sci-fi fantasy with a twisted sense of humor. 8/10"
"I watched this show by myself after Meeting Rob and loved it. I then rewatched it with my sister and we laughed and laughed together. Then I rewatched it with my ex and it just wasn't funny anymore. I think after the initial surprise of watching it for the first time, that it is the type of show that is only fun to watch with certain types of people. "
