This show is beyond your imagination

I already heard Skins before, mostly because of  Tumblr but I never really plan to watch it because I'm not that interested, but I do some researching and I thought it's some kind of teen reality show like Sweet 16 or whatever(okay I'm a moron) but then Summer comes and I decided to give it try and man this show is BRILLIANT, AMAZING, AND REAL it maybe  a little exaggerated but you can see what teenagers of this generation are going through  it's not all about the sex, drugs, alcohol, and sex again. It's about the story of individuals who are experiencing brokenness, sadness, and being left alone by society, by their friends, and their families.
Season 1 and 2 a.k.a generation 1 are personally my favorite and probably 98% of Skins fans. They are the best! you can relate to every fucking character in each episode one minute you hate that character the next you already love him/her that's the amazing thing about the generation 1 you know that they are really mates(friends in British) you know that they really care about each other, their chemistry is beyond words! my personal favorite is Tony he maybe a dick but I just fell in love with his sense of humor and honesty he's the resident bad guy in the show, but you have to watch his transformation from season 1 to 2 he became more lovable trust me. Second is Sid(Tony's best mate) I love nerds he's by far the most real character in the show he's like one of us, one of your friend, his love affair with Cassie is like a fucking roller coaster, that made the show more interesting.


 Third is Chris he's the party monster but he has the most touching story from all of them (for me), it's hard not to love his character he's fun loving and the best of all happy go lucky but after that that jsdkljhjhfe my heart just broke into pieces  I don't want to be a a dick here, just watch it and you'll know, that's what pissing me off I read some forums about the show and then I read spoilers for fuck sake I swear I'll never read forums again while I'm still watching the show or I haven't watch the movie yet, it's a big bummer. It's hard to pick just three characters because seriously I love all of them I fell in love with every character in this show. Anwar, Jal, Cassie, Michelle/Nips, and Maxxie. at some point I want find friends like them hahaha I know CRAZZZY that's how much I love this show. It's no Gossip Girl(which I really love too!), The O.C or 90210 shit that's why when it's about to end I felt sad, FOR REAL!
Then another generation came, the generation 2 this time it's Effy's turn, I didn't expect that much becauseNO ONE CAN BEAT THE ORIGINAL I mean common! after watching a really really good show, then watch another one your expectation is beyond universe it didn't disappoint me because I'm not really expecting something BIG but it's fine, not good and not bad either. While watching the whole series my mind was like this "pls Tony pls pls pls show up" but he didn't haha, but at some point Effy talk about her brother so that's okay with me. The end is what you called that ahhhmmmm a crap?? there's no closure it's a mess. maybe that's why the Skins the movie, yup you read it right THE MOVIE, is basically will revolve around gen 2, shit! I wish it's gen 1 instead but I'm still happy that Tony and Anwar will come back thank god!

                Skins: Generation 2
My only favorite characters on gen 2 were Effy, JJ, and Cook at some point Freddie but he bores me a lot. this season there's less nudity and swearing not that it's not good but that's what so bad ass about season 1 & 2 is they don't give a damn just like what Chris said "Fuck it!". No hating here but they don't have the same chemistry as the 1st one but it still worth watching if you're truly a fan. But when mighty Americans decided to have their version I'm just like WTF? I saw some of the commercials and trailers on MTV and they bleep a lot of strong words(believe me the UK Skins, 50% of their conversation there's a foul words) and they censored most of the fun part(you know what I mean) that's so not Skin, I'm going to watch it though out of curiosity and to see how much they fucked up. Okay enough on the comparison, for the record I like gen 2 but I love gen 1. I hope Gen 3 will be awesome.
P.S I used some British words here because believe me after watching this show you will adopt their language whether you like it or not.
