Skins

[cliche guevara]

This is actually shite

The gym hall scene was a joke.

And there has already been two sixteen year old girls arses. I'm gonna keep watching for a bit...

 

[strung out]

its just a tv show for dirty old men to perve at, and adolescent teenagers to get their wank material from innit

I'm 22. Which category do I fall into? Feels like a bit of both.

I don't know what I'm doing. It is actually shit. I just like looking at how pretty and young they are.

The first series was genuinely good though, that's my excuse for watching.Oh and the Bristol thing, that's an another.

Whatev, you are blates just a dirty old perv innit

 

[subversplat]

I missed the start of the +1 version too. I fail at skins

There's some pretty good perving to be had, you should get on it before you really feel too old. It's still OK, 22/2+7 is... crap.

 

[strung out]

according to that rule i'm only allowed to perve on 20 year olds now

I never got into the first series but enjoyed the 2nd - I sky + this last night and will watch over the weekend.

 

[The Octagon]

Not brilliant, but with a few bits that made me laugh despite myself (Harry Enfield getting nutted being one of them).

Was sure I was going to hate it, as all the adverts made the group of kids look like a Daily Mail reader's worst nightmare, but thankfully there seem to be some alright ones (by comparison anyway).

Effie pisses me off (oooh, I'm so enigmatic and above you all), but the redheaded twins have potential, as does Naomi Campbell

The cocky bloke's an arse though (I know that's the point, but at least Tony had some charm to his sociopathic tendencies).

The Bristol Rovers FC (Reserves) boyfriend was a bit too accurate to some of the guys I went to college with, so that made me laugh too.

And it took me a few minutes to realise that the stereotypically grumpy teacher was Father Dougal

Was it actually? I thought that at first, but then thought "Nah, I'm just thinking that because of his side parting and his accent."

Yep, definitely Ardal O'Hanlon.

It's the adult cameo roles that I enjoy most of all in Skins

i'm a dirty old man

Hey, at least you're not wanking over your twin sisters in the shower.

WTF was that about?

are you spying on me

Yeah I'm hoping it will transpire that it is a stepfamily.

Real hope.

 

[sim667]

I liked it...... I've always liked the way it hits the different stereotypes with uncanny accuracy tho

 

[butchersapron]

I like that too

what stereotypes would that be then?

 

[free spirit]

why did no one inform me the new series had started?

 

[Gromit]

I'm very disappointed. I thought the original series was very cleverly written whereas this series seems to be Carry On College crossed with Beverly Hills 90210.

Trying too hard to be woo we iz out there ain't we! Waaacky! Woot!

If some of you guys are feeling like dirty old men imagine how i feel nearing 40. That hall scene awoke lust and shame simultaneously.

 

[zoooo]

I only saw the long scene in the gym. When that teacher farted into a megaphone for about 5 minutes just before an ad break, I took my opportunity and started watching something else.

I loved old Skins.

I did with this thread

That gym scene was the worst bit tbf.

 

[zoooo]

I expect I'll give it another go.

 

[cliche guevara]

That was AWFUL.

 

[strung out]

i'm glad i didn't watch it (can you get it on catchup?)

 

[Gromit]

They've rolled middle class boys Tony and Chris into one new boy a working class yob pig who is a hedonistic, show off, socio path with issues etc.

His mates are a cool skator boy and a geek for easy manipulation. Three guys who would never actually hang together.

Crazed criminal out for blood? Hmm sound familiar?

A slight improvement on the first episode but still no comparison to the first series

This is exactly what I thought.

 

[Gromit]

Tony and Syd. You could see them two growing up together despite their differences.

These three... they don't make sense as pals.

It was all on the Thekla, that's the best bit.


The rest was kaiser, really bad.
