I think i speak for everyone when i say that the season finale was terrible. After the past couple of episodes i was really hopeful that this would be a good ending, but alas, it was too much to squeeze into one episode.
Saying that, at the end of the episode, i was on the edge of my seat (bed) wanting to see what would happen between Cook and the Dr, then BAM. It ends.
Mixed feelings about Brian Elsey - the co creater, and one of the writers - leaving the show, as the first season was so good, and he obviously had a major role in that. But, as he says, it's time to hand over to a younger bunch of writers, who will hopefully be able to recapture the essence of what made Skins great.
Fingers crossed, eh.
great. great. great. This is the kind of entry I love to see.
ReplyDeleteTry and find what else Brian Elsey has done and is going on to.
keep at it.
Wasn't the entire 3rd and 4th series terrible though?
ReplyDeleteNah the 3rd was good! I think the 1st series and the 3rd series, set up "Skins" and have all the fun stuff, partying, drugs etc the stuff we love to see and what makes the show, and then the 2ncd and the 4th series (i.e the second year of sixth form for them) get more serious and then we as an audience are not sure if we like it. The 1st series was obv the best though, I miss Sid!
ReplyDeleteI thought the 1st and 2nd were brilliant. It was much less in your face. Like the characters were less in your face.
