By Jillian Bowe on January 19, 2011


MTV's Skins is off to a great start. According to Broadcasting & Cable, the series premiered with 3.26 millions. The publication states the network received pulled in 2.7 million in the 12-34 demo, making it the most core viewers for a show debut in network history!

Well... if I have to give anything to this (and it pains me to do so) is that this version fits into what this network has evolved into and thus these ratings and the sounds of MTV patting themselves on the back.

Jamey, the original version is better filmed with more charismatic actors. The third generation UK comes out next week and looks promising.

I couldn't catch the MTV version last night, but I'm not too broken up about it.. NONE of the American remakes of a British series that I have seen, not even The Office which comes pretty close, has ever been able to duplicate the original to my satisfaction.

ICAM, this remake is absolutely ridiculous! If they have the audacity to attempt to redo "Misfits" I will save up my money, not pay rent if I have to, and go down to the studio to slap the shiotz out of every last producer. I don't even care if I'm arrested!
