Check out some photos and videos for SKINS, BBC America’s new comedy drama, which premieres tonight, August 17, at 9pm (regular timeslot will be 10pm starting next week).
Starring Nicholas Hoult (About a Boy, The Weather Man), and with a team of writers averaging the age of 22, the award-winning show is a coming of age story for 2008.
While I haven’t actually seen the first episode, I did see quite a few trailers for the show and am intrigued to find out what this show is all about. And the fact that the writers are all pretty young is quite an original way to approach a “teenage show.”
Synopsis: “Episode 1″ – Tony is a smart 17 year-old. So smart, he believes he can even get his best mate Sid laid, and make a profit – and Abigail’s party seems like the perfect place to do both. Inevitably a dope deal goes wrong, and so does Sid’s quest to lose his virginity. But when the stolen car goes into the river and takes the unpaid-for drugs with it, Tony and his mates are really in trouble.
Watch a few trailers and pictures for Skins below.
