Shit, seriously? Oh god. I'm sorry to generalise, but America always seems to butcher British TV programs. Shameless, Skins, The Office etc.

- MTV... oh, you've done it again.
I am extremely disappointed with the remake thus far. Instead of altering the script even a little bit for the first episode, MTV used the same dialogue and plot. This "American" version doesn't seem American at all.
What made me laugh was MTV's attempt to censor the show. If they wanted a clean show, they should not have chosen Skins to remake.
Overall... I was disappointed, but not surprised.
Yup. It was pretty awful. Honestly, I agree, America has ruined great shows before, and probably won't stop. Yet another reason why I desire to live in the UK.....

How did they censor it? I'm not planning on watching the US version, but I'm curious how the tried to do that, since Skins is practically a montage of angst, sex and drugs.
I think it's meant to be left ambiguous. I personally think they do, because Sid is facing away from her, but then the last shot is of him turning around to face the cafe which she's working in, so I'm assuming he would see her. But maybe that's just wishful thinking .
- Joey Jordison:
- That and I still want to know what happened to Sid and Cassie. I've always said that they never met again, but some people say that they did meet up. Does anyone know!?
Yeah, second episode was definitely better. Still not great. I think, maybe, it'll get good. Fingers crossed.

- I've been watching the American version as well. The first episode was just ridiculous, but the second episode was a bit better. They still had the Tony/gay character plot but seeing as the gay character is a girl in the American version, it kinda shook things up a bit. :)
