What types of information can we learn about the show, characters and actors?
-There is a "About the show" link that gives you an introduction to the characters and why they are doing community service.
-Who it was written by: Howard Overman
-Videos of each character introducing you to their personality.
-There are links to each actors twitter page so that you can follow them.
-There is also screening times and catch up episodes on 4OD.
How many links are there with other forms of social media e.g. Facebook?
There are links to 5 different twitter pages and 2 Facebook pages so that you can interact with the actors,
and other links to 4OD so that you are able to catch up channel 4 programs that you have missed.
There is an online comic book for Misfits, and a blog so people can post feedback.
Is the website interactive in any other ways?
There are Quizzes and game links, the quizzes are to do with the Misfits series, and the games have links to series such "The cheese fondoom".
Another way you can interact is by linking your facebook account to a video, it accesses information from your profile and puts it into a short video.
Is the website easy to use and accessible for all?
Can be confusing on the home page where links are interactive and move around, making them less obvious, however there are easy to use links that say it how it is and are basically formatted.
Older generations may find it harder to use as they are not used to modern themes.
Research into wider marketing strategies on the web as well as the website; is a there a buzz being created for the show?
They use short videos to advertise the characters to keep you entertain, rather than just writing a small biography on the characters role this is a modern way of advertising that was not seen on Little Miss Sunshines website.
There is pictures all over the website so that Misfits is always in your face on each page, and each page showing you a different scene.
They have videos and pictures to keep you entertained and have all series available for you to catch up / understand the story line if you haven't seen series 1 and 2.
They try to create humor through the games, as they refer to specific episodes such as the Cheese fondoom.
