the misfits tv show had a short run (technically a mini-series of 12 episodes), that ran from 1983-1984 up until the misfits broke up on Halloween of that year. it was broadcast on UHF, WBTB-TV, channel 68, after the success of their guest appearance on The Uncle Floyd Show.

the twelve episodes are cyclical, starting at the beginning of the school year and ending at the close of summer vacation; each episode features a musical performance by the misfits (and one by guest band, Black Flag)

like much of the content broadcast on UHF in the early 80s, these episodes are likely lost to time; but who knows? maybe someone has some taped on VHS and rotting in a jersey basement somewhere
