History Fridge / Misfits

*** It is unlikely Alisha would have had a job working as a secretary in a government office in such a Britain. On the other hand, it is quite likely that she could be the personal slave of Nazi officer Shaun. Her conversation with Simon about doing what you have to in order to survive certainly seems to point that way.

* At first it seem a bit of {{FridgeLogic}} why would Simon go back in time just [[spoiler: to die saving Alisha. Meaning that he left Alisha in the Future alone. Turns out he was closing the loop. And that he was not leaving Alisha in the Future alone, as she was dead.]] Making the reason he went back make much more sense.

** The only potential answer I've been able to come up with for this one is that it is a voluntary immunity, aka, the person could choose to allow a power to affect him/her. Which sort of makes sense as some of these powers can be useful for others (like the healing power from 2.06)
* Curtis being lactose-intolerant [[spoiler:and thus impervious to lactokinesis, putting him in a position to undo Big Cheese's murderous rampage]] may seem a bit of a cop-out until you realise that [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactose_intolerance#Lactase_persistence lactase persistence]] (the ability to digest lactose into adulthood) is actually somewhat of an anomaly, commonly found in people with Western or Northern European ancestry, but the exception rather than the rule worldwide.

** In the same vein, it's a bit confusing that somebody actually had the power to resurrect the dead as zombies and ''didn't'' accidenally start some kind of ZombieApocalypse before they figured out how to control their powers. On the other hand, if you accept the theory that Seth's power-transfer abilities actually enhance the powers, and the whole thing takes on a great deal of FridgeHorror: the original user's power was simple resurrection, with no zombification involved; if Seth had just ''asked'' the guy to resurrect [[spoiler: Shannon]] rather than stealing his power, everything would have been fine!
** Or not? Given how the misfits universe tends to have a evil sense of humour, you can't discount the possibility that the original holder of that power could bring people back to life, but still in a state of decomposition. Which would ''definitely'' explain why they wanted rid of it!
** ... the original holder was tied up and gagged in the boot of a car, ''having been kidnapped '''just so Seth could steal the power off him.''' '' I very much doubt he wanted rid of it, giving how much the man was whimpering at the time.

** His storyline with Alisha also makes more sense [[spoiler: separate or combined, the two Rudy's didn't seem like the type to become creepily fixated for years on a girl they had never met and then try to commit suicide when rejected. It seemed much more feasible when the third Rudy appeared. He's the violent, obsessive part that could have done that.]]

*** It is unlikely Alisha would have had a job working as a secretary in a government office in such a Britain.

* Assuming that he also got his powers during the storm, how did Tim, the GTA guy, go so long without capture? He literally sees life as a video game and video games usually supply maps and warn against obstacles.
** This troper thought it's possible that it wasn't Tim's power to be in a game but rather someone else with the power to trap people in games.
** This other troper just thought he was a mentally ill person and didn't even connect it to the storm. Maybe he had only recently snapped.
** He has more GTA powers than it seems, every time he gets arrested, the cops just take his weapons and let him go.

* In Season 2, Episode 2, Superhoodie saves Nathan's life outside of the rave, [[spoiler: despite the fact that he is immortal]]. Why? [[spoiler: Superhoodie knew that the drugs were still reversing his powers; Nathan would have died permanently!]]

*** Also a possibility, consider Simon at some point has to ''become'' Future!Simon, which means there was a Simon #1 who decided to go back in time to be with Alisha - no one said he had to be from the same timeline- what if, somehow Alisha got out of the situation somehow with the Video Game Guy or never got into the situation because there was no Superhoodie/Future!Simon to interfere in the first place (remember, he had been in the mix since Series 1) and they all continued on their timeline eventually falling in love, going to Vegas '''AND''' getting famous. Something goes wrong, maybe Mr. Grand Frommage, maybe something else, and Simon #1 decides to go back in time to change things bringing the photo and the footage. He changes things so much they get stuck in an endless time loop handing down the photo and the footage from one Simon to the next without actually experiencing the trip to Vegas or the famous future, but get artifacts from the previous timeline because the Simons keep handing down the items to one another. Could be WildMassGuessing, but with this show - who knows?

* Kelly from the end of Series 3 Episode 4 is from a different timeline. She shouldn't have the same shared memories as the other probationers, and should know them much less well than the original Kelly did. She doesn't act like that is the case at all, and remembers having had mechanical aptitude even though that never happened to that version of her (as far as we know).

* Once Superhoodie's identity is revealed, one might wonder why he jumps around as a HighlyVisibleNinja [[spoiler:without bothering to turn invisible]]. Later, we find out that [[spoiler:he swapped that power for one which, along with the other two he later buys, allows him to fulfill Superhoodie's heroic responsibilities more reliably]]. This is both a smart move, and (due to the protective power he gives up) a very brave one.

* Curtis being lactose-intolerant [[spoiler:and thus impervious to lactokinesis, putting him in a position to undo Big Cheese's murderous rampage]] may seem a bit of a cop-out until you realise that [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactose_intolerance#Lactase_persistence lactase persistence]] (the ability to digest lactose into adulthood) is actually somewhat of an anomaly, commonly found in people with Western or Northern European ancestry, but the exception rather than the rule worldwide.
