Re Skins: I've never watched it myself (although I was seriously tempted for a moment because the advert for it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5L1n0UV6k-s was the first time I'd heard the Gossip and I was salivating for the music ) so I can't really pass judgement on whether it's good or not. I do have plenty of friends who tell me to watch it though, so maybe that's a good sign? I don't remember there being any furore over here when Skins came out about it being child-porn or pushing too many boundaries, so I was quite confused by that NY Times article, but then maybe I wasn't paying much attention to the press when Skins came out over here.
