Geez. I mean, it wasn't exactly an accurate representation of young people anyway, which always annoyed me, but at least back in the first series (or, at least, the first half of it) it was somewhat believable.

I thought it was good to see Tony referenced, almost made me feel back at home just like the old days! But did you notice on the certificate it shows at the beginning (with the therapist guy) is not Tony's name? That threw me way off. Of the twenty minutes I could bear it seems much tamer than the craziness in series one and two. Even the music isn't as cool! Of Skins-related things I tried watching the first series before Christmas after a wave of nostalgia, got three episodes in and felt like committing suicide myself, how did we cope with that stuff in our younger days‽ That’s quite a coincidence, I did exactly the same thing yesterday (although I didn’t see anything but the first episode of series 3).
