Skins on MTV

B O R I N G

Hasn't sex, drugs and stupid been done enough to move onto something else? It's just not original or relevant any more. We get it already - YAWN

This just isn't shocking behavior. It's foolish in the age of AIDS but shocking.... naaahhhh.

I finished Season 2 today. I already miss the characters. I watched 2 episodes of Season 3 and I can't get into it yet. But I'll keep trying. I want to find out where to download the theme song to my cell phone. I love it!

Just finished up season 4! I can't believe how much I love this show. I wasn't sure I would like seasons 3 and 4 since it was a new cast, but I learned to love them almost as much as the first cast. What a great show!

OK Skins (UK) is already in my netflix queue but I've got a quick question.. is it similar in style/comedy as The Inbetweeners? Or is it strictly a drama?

I do not consider them similar. Inbetweeners was much more lighthearted.

I need to start on that next. I'm done with the IT Crowd and Skins

I've never seen IT Crowd. I'll have to check it out.

Inbetweeners is a fun show. The lead characters are total goofs. It's tamer than Skins, I let my kid watch it.

Cool, I have teens but not quite ready to introduce them to Skins. They would probably rather watch the US version anyway. They have a strong aversion to anything not U.S.(as far as tv or movies) despite my best efforts. I will definately check out the Inbetweeners. I think you would really, really like The IT Crowd. It's hysterical!! I can't say enough about it!!!

Ok thanks! I am still going to watch Skins but I was just wondering if they were similiar. So glad to find others out there that love these shows too!

This is so weird! When I was about 13 I went through a LONG phase where I LOVED everything british (and foreign). My friends and I thought we were so cool because of that too!

I grew up with a Dad who pretty much will only watch British tv. I grew up on the Beatles, was introduced to Monty Python and the Holy Grail at about 13 years old. It seems that everything I love, they go out of the way to like the opposite.
