FWIW, MTV is bringing "Skins" to the U.S., although it will in all likelihood be a lamer, less "skin" filled version of the show.

I just got into this show, it's badass.. After a little perusing, I found the first couple eps on youtube..
They are also uncensored!! Check em out while they are still up.. Here's the first ep.. I'm sure you all are competent enough to find the rest... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvTVgqWAuss |
The promo for the MTV version is out
www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0k8U_7Z6ns Looks like a nice voyeur window scene and I that cheerleader doing a routine with her legs spread wide looks interesting. Here's the UK version featuring the beginning of the window staring www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKCBPhfkRQU |
The US version of Skins has debuted with predictable results
From EW.com,,, "Jan 21 2011 06:48 PM ET 'Skins': GM places show on 'do not buy' list by Lynette Rice Amid breathless reports about the Parents Television Council calling for an advertiser boycott (thanks for obliging Taco Bell!) and a federal investigation, MTV’s Skins is continuing to push the envelope when it comes to telling racy and realistic stories about high schoolers. .... the PTC announced today that GM has put Skins on its 'do not buy' list. "PTC thanks General Motors for swiftly responding to PTC members' concerns about Chevy Volt advertisements," PTC President Tim Winter said in a statement. "MTV admitted placing the Chevy commercial on Skins in error. GM also stated that MTV had apologized for its error. Every single advertiser who sponsored the premiere episode of Skins is not only endorsing, but glorifying teen drug and alcohol abuse, not to mention a plethora of baseless sexual content." According to other news reports, the PTC is calling for prosecution under the child porn laws. Amazing. |
The child porn allegation is because there is a scene where a 17 year old male actor is running naked down the street and *gasp* you see his bare backside.
