'Skins': See the NSFW trailer for MTV's adaptation | EW.com

commencethewinning:

LEAVE IT TO MTV TO RUIN A SHOW LIKE SKINS.

It looks like a shot-for-shot ripoff of the first series. Save yourself the wait, watch the original version. You’d think by now people would realize that knock-offs and remakes don’t work anymore. 

What a load of shit. I hate MTV and I’m never watching it again.
