Programmes you really look forward to watching... Page 3

Oh yes, Skins! Me too.

Just by the adverts I decided I didn't want to watch that. Apart from stereotyping (probably quite rightly) people in their mid-/late-teens, what is it actually about?

Its bloody brilliant. It does stereotype but in all the right ways. The episode on the annorexic girl was probably the best bit of TV I saw last year (also it stopped my gf bitching about being fat for one night :))

Oh god, the adverts made me never ever want to watch a minute of it.

I watched it by accident though, and was surprised by how good the writing and acting was.

It's just about teenagers. Not remotely realistic plotlines in my manor, but who knows, some people might live like that. But it's funny and you end up caring about the characters, and that's all I need.
