KidWatch › Channel Safety › Misfits
Heavy swearing, drug and alcohol references, and chaotic energy through every video — this one's firmly for adults only.
Best for ages 18+
Misfits is a group of young adult creators, mostly Australian, making vlog-style content built around friendship, chaos, and whatever stunt or trip they've cooked up that week. The humor is loud and unfiltered, the editing is fast, and the whole vibe is basically 'a bunch of mates messing around with a camera.' It's genuinely funny if you're the right age for it, but that age is not 14.

KidWatch Assessment
Misfits is a group of young adult creators, mostly Australian, making vlog-style content built around friendship, chaos, and whatever stunt or trip they've cooked up that week. The humor is loud and unfiltered, the editing is fast, and the whole vibe is basically 'a bunch of mates messing around with a camera.' It's genuinely funny if you're the right age for it, but that age is not 14.
The language is constant and heavy. F-bombs fly every few seconds, and there are casual references to weed, alcohol, and other adult content woven into the normal flow of videos, not as edgy one-offs but just as part of how these guys talk and interact. There's no content warning, no age gate attempt, nothing.
They do occasionally show a more grounded side, like acknowledging causes or doing something genuinely creative, which shows there's real personality here. But the packaging it all comes in is absolutely not appropriate for kids or most teens.
Flagged Moments from Top Videos
Profanity is used constantly and casually throughout, with multiple uncensored F-words and other strong language in normal conversation.
The group casually jokes about one member defecating frequently and makes crude physical humor, all while repeatedly swearing in an unfiltered way throughout the video.
A membership pitch is made mid-video in a drawn-out, pressure-style appeal that frames financial support as something viewers owe the creators.
The group uses spray paint in what appears to be a retail store without permission, and the segment is played for laughs with no acknowledgment that it's inappropriate.
A Siri query about urine in testicles is made on camera and treated as comedy, and the video contains consistent heavy profanity throughout.
One creator is directly asked on camera if he smokes weed and answers yes without hesitation, which is then used as a segue into a 4/20 merchandise promotion.
Eggs are thrown out of a window at another person, sparklers are lit indoors near carpet, and a fire extinguisher is mentioned as a precaution, all framed as normal fun.
Alcohol is consumed openly in the vehicle and there are repeated jokey references to drinking, including one creator calling himself an alcoholic as a punchline.
A cigar is lit and smoked while being described to a friend as healthy and giving a buzz, with the whole bit played as lighthearted comedy.
What Parents Should Know
Avoid this channel entirely for anyone under 16, and think carefully even for older teens given the drug and alcohol content.
Know that the casual, friendship-based tone can make the content feel harmless at a glance, but the actual language and references are consistently adult.
Talk to your teen about the weed and alcohol references if they already watch this channel, because those moments are normalized and not flagged as anything unusual.
Watch an episode yourself before deciding, because the transcripts alone don't fully capture how constant and casual the swearing and adult humor actually are.
Be aware that merchandise and membership pitches appear mid-video and are aimed directly at the audience in a way that can feel personal and pressuring.
If your kid is drawn to this style of content, look for similar group vlog channels that have cleaner language as an alternative.
Recommended for ages 18+.
