A Couple of Good New Shows

Two new shows are on BBC that are pretty good.

Paradox is about what look to be cell phone pictures from the future appearing at the lab of a solar astronomer of some kind. He contacts the police, and they end up trying to prevent the disasters predicted by the pictures.

It seems to be a mini-series with only 5 episodes, but I’m not sure.

Misfits is about a group of young offendors doing community service. Thanks to a freak lightning storm, they (and many others in the area) are given special abilities. Yes, it’s another “Heroes”-inspired show. But the kids in this one would never be seen on mainstram US TV. There’s no end of sexual innuendo, foul language and bad behaviour. It’s great!
