The original Skins is a British tv series, and so far we've witnessed four seasons of hard-hitting, honest, no-holding-back awesome relatable teen drama. It's a brilliant show that twists out the inner workings of the teen mind, showing the dark, the destructive and the loved up behaviour today's teens possess.
Season 1 and 2 had the first cast of characters, namely Tony, Sid, Michelle, Cassie, Chris, Jal, Anwar and Maxxie. These seasons were the cement for why Skins became a popular tv show. In Season 3 and 4 a new cast was introduced, namely Effy, Pandora, Thomas, Cook, Freddie, JJ, Emily, Katie and Naomi. At first it was hard to adjust to the new cast, seeing as the orginal cast was phenomenal, but they soon won over the audience with more awesome story lines and alot more drama. And not to mention the amazing music featured on the show and really clever cinematography (camera angles for those who don't know).
Apparently there is set to be a new cast for season 5 which should be out late January 2011. Can't freaking wait!!
For the mean time I've checked out Skins US which is a remake by MTV, but I'm not that impressed with it at the moment. It's the exact same story line as the original British Skins. It's like watching a bad version of a story you know and love. Not cool. If they'd come up with some new story lines then maybe it would've worked.
For now, i'll hold out until Skins Season 5 airs :)
