i no effy is the main character jail bait i cant wait! Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: KarmaDope on January 24, 2009, 12:08:34 AM This was brilliant.
It might be series 3 but for those who haven't watched before, you don't have to. Basically a completely new show which was just as good as the first 2 seasons. If you find immature humour funny you'll love this. Title: Re: Skins series 3..

Basically a completely new show which was just as good as the first 2 seasons. yeah im in tht boat but watched the ep the other day. total comedy. Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: bolt pp on January 24, 2009, 07:54:51 AM this series sucks, if you had it with proper working class folk, yeah you'd have a shit load of barley intelligible dialect and an unbearable amount of burberry, but the stories would be shit hot.
edit- just realised what ive described is basically "shameless", which btw PWNS skins! Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: StuartHopkin on January 24, 2009, 02:19:59 PM both are pure class in their own ways
i was worried skins wouldnt be the same with the new people but it worked so well, female teenager for the lead for the win Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: Numpty Dumpty on January 25, 2009, 06:48:43 AM cant wait i no effy is the main character jail bait i cant wait! ;applause; Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: Numpty Dumpty on January 30, 2009, 12:26:59 AM poor poor show tonight i thought :(
but that cook is a crap character. maybe it will get better again when they focus on the others Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: KarmaDope on January 30, 2009, 01:48:44 PM I dunno...it started off bad but seemed to get better as it went on - lots of cringeworthy moments at the start, especially in the pub, but once the scene where Cook started singing had passed, I was cringing less and laughing more.
Mackenzie Crook as fake gangster with ridic moustache was stupid. To me, it appears that Cook's character is based on Chris from s1+2 - the difference is that Cook's far too chavvy to be Chris. I think it's a pretty crappy attempt to show the differences between drink and drugs, Chris came off as "cool" because he was always taking happy pills and smoking weed, Cook's an aggressive prat because all he does is keep drinking lager. It'll be interesting to see what's gonna happen with all the other characters, we know Effy's a hell of a lot wilder than she has been so far, and wtf's going on with Emily and Naomi? IF they do that right it could be very very good. Oh, and please get rid of Pandora - she's a waste of space. Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: Numpty Dumpty on January 30, 2009, 03:36:40 PM Mackenzie Crook as fake gangster with ridic moustache was stupid. certainly certainly true. i think some of the other characters seem pretty cool, basically all of them except maybe pandora and cook. see what u mean about cook being similar to chris, but chris was just a much better character. cook is just a characature of a "lad" Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: paulhouk03 on February 01, 2009, 07:45:49 PM skins season 3 is pretty wank i think a huge disappiontment.
cook is a nob and that geek is a rubbish too twins seem boring there isnt much to them all just effy and the skate board dude seem intresting to me. the characters seem very unintresting to me compared to the past season. Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: Jon MW on February 01, 2009, 08:10:00 PM I don't think this season is terrible, but it's not great.
It seems like they're writing very much to a template. The characters are all predefined, the stories are all predifined and they've got writers to just join the dots - rather than actually have anyone creative. If it is exactly the same people who created the first 2 series then they've just ran out of steam. Effy is the only good character in it and she was already there from before. If it wasn't for her and the twins I probably wouldn't bother watching the rest. Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: Colchester Kev on February 01, 2009, 08:11:22 PM Shameless is back, why watch anything else :)
Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: KarmaDope on February 01, 2009, 09:10:45 PM Shameless is shit, please watch anything else :) FYP. skins season 3 is pretty wank i think a huge disappiontment. cook is a nob and that geek is a rubbish too twins seem boring there isnt much to them all just effy and the skate board dude seem intresting to me. the characters seem very unintresting to me compared to the past season. It's only been 2 episodes...gotta give them time. Best way to treat it is as a completely new programme - because that's what it is. MW, they have loads of new writers, not just the cast that changed. Give it a chance, imo. Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: Colchester Kev on February 01, 2009, 09:12:27 PM LOL @ Shameless is shit, i bet you have never even watched it.
Title: Re: Skins series 3.. Post by: KarmaDope on February 01, 2009, 09:13:49 PM LOL @ Shameless is shit, i bet you have never even watched it. Downloaded Season 1 last year - gave up after 5 episodes mainly cos I couldn't stand Frank. Just not my cup of tea, I guess. Title: Re: Skins series 3..
