“Skins” is how teen melodrama should be. Oh, and it’s a constant reminder of how much American TV sucks. “Skins” aired their first season on the BBC in 2007. They tell the story of a group of college friends who date each other, drink, do drugs and god forbid have sex. You’ll have seen a few of the stars before. Nicholas Hoult starred in “About a Boy” and “Dev Patel” was actually cast for “Slumdog Millionaire” from his part on “Skins”. All the staples of teen melodrama are here… The kid who wants his best friend’s girlfriend. An affair with a teacher. But then they branch in to some more modern topics of discrimination based on sexual orientation or religion. “Skins” is a well crafted and interesting story of a group of friends surviving college. They are in Season 3 now so adopt a new guilty pleasure and pick up the first two seasons on DVD.
