Skins (TV Show)

I'm not talking about the gritty MTV reboot. I'm talking about the original UK Skins. I started watching it today on Netflix, and I couldn't stop. It's so good.

Has anyone else seen it?

I've watched the entire series, twice! I did get sad when there was completely different people in seasons three and four though.
Cassi and Sid were my favorites.

[quote=lawlerskates]So I've heard. I'm kind of tempted to just watch a bit to see what it's like, but I feel like it might be so bad it'll even ruin the original for me.[/quote]

I also don't think i'm going to watch it, it looks awful and i don't want it to ruin how brilliant the original is!

I freaking love Skins. The American version sucks though.

[quote=j03j43]I heard it was good. Anyone have streaming links to it? The UK one, of course.[/quote]

Instant queue on Netflix, if you have it. Start watching it ASAP.

And? Anything wholesome and good? Anything thought-provoking? It sounds like a terrible drama show to me, but perhaps I'm overlooking some wonderful, redeeming quality.[/quote]

Didn't realize there was such thing as wholesome and good entertainment. Derp.

Not, but seriously, you can't judge the show based off of that 3 word summary.

It's not anything like you're imagining it to be. It's seriously a great show; the character development is amazing. Just watch the first episode.
