The ratings have come in for the latest MTV show to air called "Skins" and it looks like as many as 3.3 million viewers watched the premier episode of the series which revolves around some high school kids. All the websites are parroting the line given to them by the network "SKINS is an emotional mosh-pit that slams through the insanity of teenage years." Oh yeah baby, it's so cutting edge.
The network promo guys were working double-time trying to pump up this series with releases about how the FCC were upset about child pornography allegations and how the network had to do some editting to make it palatable for main-stream television. You can almost imagine the boys at the network trying to play THAT angle up before the program aired to make people wanna watch. And apparently, watch they did.
Yeah, all 16-year-olds act like they're in their 20s. Just what we need another teen soap. It seems almost like Jersey Shore for the teen set. Nothing like offering a how-to series about becoming a drunken addle-minded teen idiot. Here's the promo for the series:
Here's some of the reaction to the first episode:
