A Channel 4 spokesperson confirmed to Digital Spy that the 21-year-old actress will not reprise her role as Kelly in the E4 drama... Clerkenwell Films and Lauren Socha agreed some time ago that along with other cast members, including Iwan Rheon and Antonia Thomas, she would not be returning for the fourth series of Misfits, which is currently in production. Channel 4 supports both parties' decisions." Misfits will return to E4 in late 2012.

• The thing I originally loved about the show: the powers each of the main cast received were all based on parts of their personalities. I don't particularly like the idea of them choosing new powers based on need or whatever.  I liked how they had to deal with their given powers, but of things that could be worse this is low on the spectrum and I love Kelly saying, "I'm a fucking rocket scientist" so this gets a pass.
• I just didn't like the Curtis as Melissa storyline and maybe that because I don't like Curtis.  The constant masturbating and getting caught by Alicia and then mocked for being bad at it was a nice call back to the first season. I almost wanted him to stay stuck as Melissa and see where that storyline went.
• I was upset like most people that Nathan left the show and was replaced by Rudy, but I love Rudy. His character and power reflect back to my first point about the powers being a reflection of their real personality and his humor is definitely something the show needs, much like Nathan's was too.
• Rudy getting them in trouble and sending everyone back to community service was a good way to keep the group together, because would these people really be friends without it?  I doubt it.
• The comic book fan, Peter, episode was really the only episode that featured Alicia, but was really a Simon centered episode.  Alicia had little storyline this season and I didn't really like that. I did like seeing Simon learning to be Super Hoodie, though. 
• The Nazi episode was crazy, but began the string of Kelly centered episodes and really aren't we all here for Kelly?  Her first kiss with Seth happened during this episode as well. I like the introduction of Seth as a featured character this season (I want to be his boyfriend).
• The body swapping episode was Lauren Socha's (Kelly) high point as an actress on this series.  This episode also reflected back on season one with the killing of the probation officer, Shaun, who I was kind of getting attached to.
• The super STD episode delivered some real funny lines from Rudy, but was overall just ok an episode. Seth also found the resurrection power and gave that to Curtis removing the power to turn into a female thus eliminating the fact that he was pregnant with his own baby. Which really? That was just too much.
• I enjoyed the zombie episode the best this season.  Seth had Curtis resurrect his dead girlfriend.  My favorite part was the zombie cat, a nice nod to Pet Semetary I think.  Seth's girlfriend started feeding on people and an iguana.  Zombie cheerleaders and the death of another probation worker. Seth and Kelly admit their love for each other, awww.
• In the finale, a medium brings back three ghosts from the Misfits past.  Each of the three ghosts came back to complete some unfinished business. Sally came back to (she thought) avenge Tony's death.  She also tried to seduce Simon and videotaped them kissing which she sent to Alicia.  Sally then tries to kill Alicia thinking this is what she was meant to come back and do in revenge for her death.  Tony, the first probation worker, comes back as well and intervenes on the roof telling Sally that they killed him in self-defense, they kiss, and disappear. The leader of the Virtue Group also returns thinking she needed to get drunk, swear, and have sex so she can move on, but after completing all these things she is still trapped on Earth.  Rudy attempts to comfort her and he unwittingly puts the idea of vengeance into her head.  She takes a box cutter and kills Alicia who dies in Simon's arms. OK, so now that Alicia is dead Simon decides the only way to be with her is to go back in time and here is where the Super Hoodie storyline really begins. Simon&Alicia4Eva.
• Seth gives Simon a one way time traveling power and thus begins what will likely be an endless cycle of making Alicia fall in love with him and then her dying.  This seems like a terrible way to continue living no?  Knowing that Alicia dies every time?  This episode also marked the end of Alicia and Simon's characters on the show.  So, we're left with Kelly, Curtis, Seth, and the two Rudys. 
• The series was renewed for a fourth series.
• I am VERY concerned about the possible, very likely, American remake of Misfits by Josh Schwartz.
