Nothing Good Can be Said about the American Skins

I feel that giving this show one star is almost being too generous because this remake is absolutely awful and horrible and just a complete mess.

I think part of the reason that this remake is so bad is because the original was so good. I doubt that anything can possibly match up to the original, British Skins. It's hard to not compare the two. But then again, the American remake has problems all on its own.

The most major problem I see is the cast. The actors, first of all, look like they're all twelve years old. A minor oversight that I might have eventually been able to adapt to if the acting hadn't been so awful. The actors didn't seem to be able to capture their characters' essence. The dialogue was delivered in an almost mindless state and not a single character comes off as being likable.

I could really go on and on about all the flaws that this show has but I don't want to bore any one by complaining. Watching this rubbish remake will bore you enough, either way.

score 1/10
