Skins, Again

I keep coming back to Skins even though I know what I’m walking into. The show doesn’t apologize—it’ll spend an entire episode on someone getting high, or failing at sex, or just falling apart, and that’s just what the episode is. No lesson, no arc. Most television won’t do that. Season 5 is a new cast, same chaos, and I’m curious enough to watch.
