So did you watch?

After all my promotion, how many of you watched Skins last night? Feel free to raise your hands. What did you think?

I really enjoyed the first couple episodes. I found the main characters to be funny and interesting. I particularly like that they count a Muslim and a gay teen amongst their numbers to diversify the story a bit. Some of their stories seemed a little far fetched but on the whole, a lot of the issues the characters deal with ring pretty true (as with poor Cassie who is battling anorexia with little success). The shows last night really drew me in and I am excited to see where the characters will go. Hope you take the journey with me!
