Jan 17, 2010 · Skins is a fantastic and invigorating in-look in to the lives of modern day students. The first two series had a fantastic cast, most of whom who had never acted before but some familiar faces including About A Boy's Nicholas Hoult and Slumdog Millioanire's Dev Patel who played Tony and Anwar respectively.

What would have been the final Skins season kicks off with the third generation of characters on holiday in Morocco, which turns out to be slightly less glamorous than they'd expected. Franky (Dakota Blue Richards) creates some messy Skins relationshipswhen she leaves Matty for Luke, who is soon discovered to be a notorious drug dealer, and the sea...
The fifth season introduces the third generation, which marks a significant removal from the first two generations. None of the characters are of any relation to those who fans have grown attached in the first four seasons, unlike the transition during Skinsseasons 2 and 3, which helped make the new characters work. There is no connection to the ch...
When MTV created an American reboot based on the first generation of Skins in 2011, the series was held back slightly by just what was allowed to be shown on the network. That meant it wasn’t able to become quite as graphic or cross as many lines as the original UK series, and the grittiness of the original series has been part of the appeal since ...
Skinsseason 7 stands apart from the rest. It's a completely different format in that it doesn't focus on a single group. Split into three parts ("Pure," "Fire." and "Rise") of two episodes each, the season examines the lives of three of the show's most popular and iconic characters: Cassie, Effy, and Cook. Fans are eager to learn whether Cassie and...
Season 3 introduces the second generation in all of their unlikely compatible connections. They truly are a bunch of misfits, far more than the first generation is, but they also find that they fit in with each other. The season begins with Cook, Freddie, and JJ immediately falling in love with Effy, who enjoys the attention and playing around with...
The second season of Skinsworks so well because the audience gets to know the characters much better than the first season. Michelle questions who she really is and attempts a romance with Sid, who finally realizes it's Cassie he loves. But Cassie, now in Scotland, is still bitter over him choosing Michelle in the first place. The central relations...
This is the second season featuring the second generation of Skins characters. The season is very much the detailed aftermath of the events of season 3. It centers around Effy's depression, which indirectly leads to Freddie's murder at the hands of Effie's psychotherapist, who becomes obsessed with her. Meanwhile, Emily learns that Naomi has cheate...
The original group of Skins characters and their stories take the top spot for the Skins seasons. The first season has a unique charm and sense of humor that is hard to replicate in the later segments, especially as the stakes increase. Generation 1 is (from left to right) Chris, Anwar, Tony, Sid, Maxxie, Michelle, Sketch, Jal, and Cassie. From Ton...
