Skins

I resisted Skins for a bit but now I've started watching it and it's very entertaining. Still I'm glad I'm not a sixteen-year-old these days, because I can remember feeling terribly dull when I was, and now I'd be feeling just immensely pathetic for all the drugs I wasn't taking, all the awkward sex I wasn't having, not to mention having parents who didn't have affairs or swear at me or suddenly disappear. Hurray! Also it has an excellent anti-hero who reads Thus spake Zarathrustra and whom the parents all love. When I was that age I was always very suspicious of people who got on well with adults and thought there was something to Nietzsche.
