Really? Why You Gotta Try So Hard?

Why? Why? Why? Why are they trying so hard? Real life is provocative, and the Skins UK show and at least with the first two seasons it was so good because it was so real. It wasn't trying so hard to be edgy and provocative. An the more I read about and see the MTV promotion for the US version the more turned off of it I get. This show will never live up to the original. So why do they think that instead of doing an original American spin on it and trying to make a good show it's better to just be raunchy and cheap and focus on the party side of the characters and not the real depth of the characters? Fucking American television! This last pic isn't so bad and I like the black and white style photos better then the ripped off look of the top photo from shoots with the second generation cast of girls!

New US Skins Promo Pics!

Someone deserves a bonus and it's not the cast! I love LOVE the fact that they're making fun of the themselves an all the haters that wer against Mtv getting their reality tv hands on one of the most AMAZING teen shows ever and possibly butchering. I still have my resurvations about the show and I was not very imressed with the trailer they released. It seemed to much like the first season and I don't think show is going to work if they try to mimic the first season cause it CAN'T live up to it. It could however keep the vibe and edgy realistic storylines and just make it their own. I have hope for the show now. But I'm more excited for the 5th season of the original Skins and to see their new cast!
