Aw man. "Im not as beautiful and symmetrical like robert"............ dude. Joe Gilgun is gold on the inside and the outside. I think he's fucking gorgeous as hell!!!
I personally prefer Rudy to Nathan on Misfits - this is probably down to Joe because he's hilarious (and super cute). Also, I think Nathan was a bit of the one dimensional, selfish prick, whereas Rudy is more sensitive deep down. Like Rudy 2 really, who is so sweet - I love Joe's portrayal, he manages to show the differences between the two versions brilliantly.
+Allison Green Agreed. Rudy is more complex than Nathan which was great to watch. However, I bloody loved Nathan. Although I'm not going to say who I prefer, that isn't really the point of Rudy - I think the writers did an excellent job of distinguishing between the two characters, when they could have just used Joe to be a 'replacement' Nathan.
I loved Nathan in Misfits but I love Rudy even more, I've never laughed so much watching a series that is not a comedy, the way Joe deliver's Rudy's lines are bloody brilliant, such a timeless character!
At first I didnt like rudy because i missed Nathan too much. I now like rudy but i will always miss Nathans humor. Thats probably because Robert sheehan is hilarious and such a nice guy that i want him back. If Nathan and Rudy ever met they'd be great. Nathan would crack a joke and rudy would back it up by telling some hilarious story.
After not being able to see the last 3 Seasons for a few years because I couldn't find it online (thank you Netflix) I wasn't sure how good it would be without Nathan's character, but I absolutely fell for Rudy! Great acting- wonderfully weird character, completely loveable. Hope to see Joe in more things-huge fan now
I think Rudy is a bit older and much more funnier than Nathan. I really loved him though, but when Robert left the project it turned out that I don't miss him that much. Joe is a very decent substitute. The further you deepen in the episodes, the harder it will be to "unlike" Rudy, believe me :)
italia cameron unfortunately freeform is going to remake misfits as a American series.i honestly think they'll ruin cause they're "freeform" and one of the reasons Misfits was so good cause it was R rated.freeform will water it down to a PG or PG-13 tv show.but when I heard about this it was months ago so hopefully they cancelled the idea
When Rudy was introduced I was a bit skeptical about him but I think Rudy was a lot better than Nathan. Nathan was just funny because he was annoying. Rudy wasn't. Rudy had a lot more to offer
This guy is the only reason i even watch Misfits! I saw a couple with Nathan in it but i found it boring tbh. Joe Gilgun is one of my fav actors and deffo makes the show worth watching. Love him and the accent :D
I like Rudy more, personally. Or I guess I should say I like Rudy's potential more? There's more area for depth in Rudy than there was in Nathan. And I feel like Rudy is a more easy-going, silly humorous character while Nathan was kind of a more aggressively, almost mean-spirited humorous character Joe Gilgun is a fantastic actor, as well. I'm excited to see if the show will really utilize his ability.
hoooollly crap. joe.... i love ya, as a character and an actor. never once compared ya to robert either, it would be wrong to. you're acting a role made by the writers perfectly, and i whole-heartedly enjoy watching.
@brfffa That would be so awesome, if robert would pop in every once in a while, and guest star on the show! Nathan and Rudy probably wouldn't like each other though!!
I was disappointing when i found out that nathan was no more on misfits, but i gotta be honest.... they couldnt of found a better replacement!! Joe Gilgun did a bloody fantastic job and possibly made me laugh more than nathan!!!
Goodness , rudy and nathan are to completely different characters, if you were only watching the show for nathan then thats really sad, and you didn't really love the show it self, The four other main characters are still their guys. I loved nathan too , but I'm loving rudy too , they are both amazing actors , who bring different things to the show.
Despite apparently originally being billed as "Nathan's replacement", Rudy is clearly differentiated so far from Nathan that, despite being cast as the main funnyman, he's still a great character. His split-personality power has made for some inspired exchanges between his two selves. He's a happy-go-lucky guy, with an interesting, amusing and backstory, lending itself towards the reason for his insecurity manifested in his other side. And his lines and flexible facial expressions are hilarious.
I do miss Nathan but Rudy is an awesome funny character so far. He is like a step father, he won't replace your father but he will be there in his own way. :P
I think he is cutter than Robert and I liked his character more. It just ticked me off that Nathan kept confusing Simon's name and just generally didn't care about any of the other characters beside Kelly.
I'm only watching series 3 onwards now I haven't had chance to watch or I wouldn't have the right channel so now I'm watching the whole box set and loving it but if it goes too superhero ish I will get put off.
Why is everybody comparing Nathan and Rudy? They're pretty similar. I personally prefer Nathan, but everybody is making such a big deal out of who they like more. Why can't we love both? x)
Lol I love the way he's like "I dont have sexy Irish hair, or a sexy irish accent" LOOLAGE rudy is good but if you brought Nathan back aswel as rudy, that would be hillarious
Wow... he's spot on about why I'm a little disappointed. I think it takes a real man to admit he knows he's asymmetrical, but it's a well-written show and he seems like a good actor. Eventually people will warm up to his character. Real fans can get used to anything. Idk about you guys, but I'm looking forward to seeing where they go with him.
Rudy and Nathan bring their own brand of humor. Personally I like them both!!!
Aw man. "Im not as beautiful and symmetrical like robert"............ dude. Joe Gilgun is gold on the inside and the outside. I think he's fucking gorgeous as hell!!!
Joe's acting is a lot more symetrical than Robert's. 😅 Thankfully.
he's freakin hot.

italia cameron Check Joe out in Preacher. He does an awesome job as Cassidy on screen.
I had no complaints with Joe joining the cast. He was brilliant, & just as hilarious as Robert:)
Misfits has aged well even in 2021
What a MASSIVE talent! All of them are ... But ancient people will remember J G been in Corrie, and he
was brilliant even as a young lad!
I think Rudy is a bit older and much more funnier than Nathan. I really loved him though, but when Robert left the project it turned out that I don't miss him that much. Joe is a very decent substitute. The further you deepen in the episodes, the harder it will be to "unlike" Rudy, believe me :)
"I'd turn for Robert" XD
Joe's a legend, love all his stuff
"Rudy" did pull it off....Joe Gilgun,All The Way !
Yes he did!
I like Rudy more than Nathan!
LOL
They need a Misfit movie
They should!

personaly I find Joe Gilgun(Rudy) freaking handsome
When Rudy was introduced I was a bit skeptical about him but I think Rudy was a lot better than Nathan. Nathan was just funny because he was annoying. Rudy wasn't. Rudy had a lot more to offer
i could watch this fella all day long great actor
Great actor. He did very well in Lockout and he really played his part good!
Sheehan is just as great of an actor, I doubt you've seen him in anything other than Misfits. He's incredibly versatile, too.
This man is beautiful.
i like this guys voice.
I adore him so much!
This guy is the only reason i even watch Misfits! I saw a couple with Nathan in it but i found it boring tbh. Joe Gilgun is one of my fav actors and deffo makes the show worth watching. Love him and the accent :D
HE FILLED THE GAP FOR ROBERT I LOVEEEEEEE RUDY
Best character🙌
i am SO in love with him. drool.
Never watched Misfits, but he is one fucking good actor! He was unbelievable in TIE, the film, 86 and 88. Superb actor!
At first I was upset but now Rudy is one of my fav characters and I am enjoying the new season so much :D
This might start a war, but the lanc accent really sounds similar to the yorkshire accent.
Nobody could ever replace nathan, but rudy does well. He's hilarious as his own character.
omg. he is amazing. and so is his accent.
LOL
cheerleaders episode, fucking hilarious in it
I like Rudy more, personally. Or I guess I should say I like Rudy's potential more? There's more area for depth in Rudy than there was in Nathan. And I feel like Rudy is a more easy-going, silly humorous character while Nathan was kind of a more aggressively, almost mean-spirited humorous character

hoooollly crap. joe.... i love ya, as a character and an actor. never once compared ya to robert either, it would be wrong to. you're acting a role made by the writers perfectly, and i whole-heartedly enjoy watching.
Love the fact that he's from my home town. BIG UP FO' CHORLEY
@brfffa That would be so awesome, if robert would pop in every once in a while, and guest star on the show! Nathan and Rudy probably wouldn't like each other though!!
I was disappointing when i found out that nathan was no more on misfits, but i gotta be honest.... they couldnt of found a better replacement!! Joe Gilgun did a bloody fantastic job and possibly made me laugh more than nathan!!!
Took me ages to realise that he's woody
Goodness , rudy and nathan are to completely different characters, if you were only watching the show for nathan then thats really sad, and you didn't really love the show it self, The four other main characters are still their guys.
I loved nathan too , but I'm loving rudy too , they are both amazing actors , who bring different things to the show.
I miss This Era !

His split-personality power has made for some inspired exchanges between his two selves.

my favorite character from season 3
Quality is the difference , it doesn't matter the country where the series are made.
i thought season 3 would be the beginning of the end, but its just as good as the first 2
Joe Gilgun has one of the best accents ever
RUDY CANT FAIL!
I do miss Nathan but Rudy is an awesome funny character so far.
He is like a step father, he won't replace your father but he will be there in his own way. :P
Rudy is by far a better char, so much more funny.
Rudy is awesome, Nathan was epic too, stop harassing the bloke, wasnt his fault Nathan left
man rudy is just so outrageous and random that i'm starting to love him more than nathan :O
Barry is Simon, not nathan
But he's fucking hilarious.
The captions xD
best new caracther ever
Rudy is flipping hilarious!
I'm absolutely inlove with you Joe.
I think he is cutter than Robert and I liked his character more. It just ticked me off that Nathan kept confusing Simon's name and just generally didn't care about any of the other characters beside Kelly.
I prefer Rudy to Nathan any day!
I think you are a great replacement for Robert Sheehan, great actor mate
I'm only watching series 3 onwards now I haven't had chance to watch or I wouldn't have the right channel so now I'm watching the whole box set and loving it but if it goes too superhero ish I will get put off.
@MattVSInternet you put it perfectly. lol!
Just realised, in TIE he's Woody (nickname of Joe Strummer) and in this he's Rudy (A message to...) ... There's a theme here aha
Me too, I mean, I love Nathan, I thought I could never watch misfits without him, but after I saw that Nazi episode I completly forgot him.
I actually prefer Rudy to Nathan. I never thought Joe was right for this but he's been hilarious!
He's like the pippin of misfits
it would have been nice to see Rudy & Nathan meet because i think that they would have got on if not becoming best mates
Why is everybody comparing Nathan and Rudy? They're pretty similar. I personally prefer Nathan, but everybody is making such a big deal out of who they like more. Why can't we love both? x)
"If I fuck this one up, I'm going back to plasterin'" #lad
Rudy is my hero…
Joe is as good as Robert if not better ..Also he is genius in "This is England"
Rudy is boss but I think he should have came in series 2 because you don't see a lot of him
He has 3 seasons,practicaly starred by just him ._.
Lol I love the way he's like "I dont have sexy Irish hair, or a sexy irish accent" LOOLAGE rudy is good but if you brought Nathan back aswel as rudy, that would be hillarious
I LOVE RUDY.
NOOO theres no more misfits AGAIN!
@MultiBubba4811 E4 has confirmed Misfits series 4
i like the part where he comes up the stairs with a huge hammer
Where the hell are they on set
Funniest Guy On Misfits
NO
i think both together would be fab, even tho i am the hugest robert sheehan fan
i met him
@andsparksfly I wasted my time checking my inbox for that?
So it is only Curtis, Kelly and Rudy left, and Kelly's boyfriend, next season is gonna be strange! :D
you can even see in interviews, the rest of the cast seem to like him more than robert sheehan.
Wow... he's spot on about why I'm a little disappointed. I think it takes a real man to admit he knows he's asymmetrical, but it's a well-written show and he seems like a good actor. Eventually people will warm up to his character. Real fans can get used to anything.
Idk about you guys, but I'm looking forward to seeing where they go with him.
such a way with words hahah allways a dingel
@MattVSInternet well said bro
Robert is beautiful young men :D
I say "fucking" alot n' all, Most people here in england do generally, just part of the dialect I reckon haha.
Eli Dingle!!!
Rudy is the best
РУДИ))
i miss nathan a lot even tho i like rudy
Lucky.
then they must have their reasons or not, who knows
if i f*** this one up im goin back to plasterin :'D i love him too much!
Oh thank god Robert left the show.
NOT AT ALL
Miticoooo
