Author Topic: Skins (tv series)  (Read 488 times)

A friend recently got me to watch this on new years and I have to say I have been hooked ever since.

Skins is a show about teen drama but don't let that put you off this isn't MTV teen drama.
Basically the show goes and will normally follow one character per episode so it is always a new setting so it doesn't get boring.
Anywho the show starts out pretty normal but at around 9 episodes stuff goes whack.
I don't want to spoil anything but I highly recommend watching the first episode and see if you like it, it streams on netflix or you can try to find another way to watch it.

Oh and if you do watch it MAKE SURE YOU GET THE U.K. VERSION.
There is another version that WAS on MTV it was obviously censored to USA standards and also only made 10 episode.

I will put up a desciption tomorrow but right now you can check the wikipedia page here: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skins_(TV_series)

So...

Can we get a synopsis or something?

Fauly made me watch a few episodes with her and i thought it was pretty good, but that was a while ago and i completely forgot about it.

Kids do drugs forget stuff up other kids with mental issues cause problems from people with eating disorders to stalkers general teen stuff (trying to get laid)

And also with all these topics the show does a wonderful job at making these topics feel very grim dark at times


I have heared the UK version(The original) is far better than the US version which was prty good, if I remember.

The UK version IS superior to the US version.

Just like The Office :D

I'm pretty sure anything that is adapted or remade is normally worse then before.
