Skins.




The show Skins aired on MTV in America a couple years ago.  However, before the American version, there was a British version.  I watched the first episode of the American version and then of the British version.  They have the same general idea except the British version is a lot raunchier.  There is more swearing and obscene talk than the American version and there is nudity.
Skins is a drama about teenagers who do drugs and their main goal is to get laid.  In this first episode, the group of teens is trying to help their nerdy, Sid, friend lose his virginity.  They really pick on him a lot but because he wants to "become a man" he just goes along with the situation.  Tony, the main character in this first episode, even offers up his own girlfriend, Michelle,  to help the situation.
In my opinion, I did not necessarily enjoy this show.  It was too vulgar and it sort of made me uncomfortable to watch.  I guess that's why it didn't last too long on air in America.
