    Any of you guys watch skins, UK version, it's a great show
    it talks about partying, drug abuse, family problems, and sexual orientation.
    the US version is getting hate because they did some edit to the
    characters.

    I watched the first two seasons of Skins UK version and loved it. Own both on DVD. I didn't get into the third season when they switched out all of the characters. I have seen one episode of the US version but liked the UK one better. Although the US version is getting a lot of controversy.

    Yeah I watched Skins when it first came out. It was really exciting i guess coz i was in the prime age for it. Each new series got progressively worse I think, unfortunately. Series 1 was amazing, 2 was good, 3 and 4 were ok. I watched the first two episodes of series 5 and its not great.

    It caused quite alot of controversy over hear when it first came out tbh.

    I've got the first two series on DVD too. I love it.
    Haven't seen the US version though. I did think they said ages ago they were going to make changes.

    michelle and cassie were the best. i loved michelle's effortless sexiness, and loved cassie's dorky-kind-of-insane-but-cute-and-innocent-but-not-really thing XD Also I had a friend in highschool who looked just like michelle. so wierd and fascinating at the same time XD
    anyways, haven't watched US version though.
