You’d be surprised how many people will give him numerous chances because he’s attractive and “exciting” But Cook would’ve been my absolute last resort 😭
lmao skam France is just as shitty as skins because of its inaccuracies, they forgot what skam was truly about: teenagers getting through stuff in the most realistic, not overly dramatic way
if somebody wanted to watch a real good show the best options out there would be either Skam España (let's forget about their last season) or Druck, which had in fact the best original season among the skamverse
Yup, was legit gonna say that. Istg, if none of them had become friends 💀 and I mean, if they hadn't become like.. a friend group. Emily went kinda 👩🦲 Just... Pandora. Effy almost fuckin killed Katie. Freddie was killed by Effys' psychologist. Cook went to prison for killing the psychologist. And more that I dont even remember. Hey it was a good show tho
LOL at everyone whining about how cringy everyone was being. Here's a real shocker for you all: teenagers are extremely cringy. It's a bunch of edgelords and cringelords running around thinking they're being so profound and special and grown up. It's all a part of growing up. A few years from now everyone here will be cringing at what they were like today. So the show was very realistic in that department.
Yeah but in this particular scene it was framed as something serious, like when Freddie talk about a girl he barely met that same day, they put music and all, like it was romantic when in reality its just weird, like he didn't even know her, and why would you say it in front of the whole class anyways lol. The only one who sounded normal was Naomi.
@@jules8159I was a teenager, I remember the cringe pretty well. The deep ones are the exception to the rule, and you being bothered enough to make this comment makes you the rule :)
I thought that was a nice touch, as opposed to all the background characters during common room scenes in the Inbetweeners, it just feels unrealistic nobody would laugh during Neil's moments of stupidity or whatever
Why is everyone suddenly bashing the show in the comments? If the language here makes you cringe that hard, then you'll probably have a stroke when watching Euphoria.
I do have a stroke when I watch Euphoria. But I loved skins when I was 13 and just didn't see the cringe back then. Now I see it but I still love the show bc its memories lol.
I think it's because the show's undergone a big revival in popularity since COVID due to TikTok and stuff like that. My guess is that a lot of the people here got into Gen 1 and never really liked any others. Also the majority of them are Cassie stans, and hate Effy and Sid
As someone raised in England, the biggest leap of imagination for me in Skins (and god knows there are many) is that Cook, Freddie and JJ would be best friends at school. Those are three COMPLETELY different social groups. I never saw chavs hanging out with greebos, and god knows neither of those people would have talked to an autistic geek kid 🤣
Cook and JJ made a lot of sense to me. I'm autistic and as time went on I became quite well-liked by guys of a completely different social league, and they had possibly one of the best friendships of the show, I thought it worked. I think Freddie stuck with them too because they both rely on him (Cook so he doesn't get himself into deep shit, and JJ for social scenarios)
i think it's the type of situation where they probably grew up together due to their parents being friends or something. so over time they just spent a lot of time together and formed a deep friendship
half of what she says is cringey but she somehow makes it work. that being said, she wouldnt get away with half the stuff shes done and said if she wasnt pretty. i love her but it is what it is
This show is so fucking good... Freddie s unique fact is Effy because she defined his life and she became his story. Its amazing bring skins back i would definitely donate for its production...
Skins was not super realistic, yet it does match a certain vibe there was in the early 2000s... I think people had kind of gotten very numb and relaxed at that stage, and things were in a way much less stressful than they are today... It was a strange time I realize now, because nowadays people are much more on the edge regarding identity, sex, and puritanical ... This era was really the END of the 70s... Whereas now we are in the hangover aftermaths..... Also, last but not least: I feel like the characters were perhaps a bit too mature and advanced for their age... It feels more like Uni vibes...
@@pjr0167 yes it's true, if you want to be really accurate... But it wasn't that different TBF, also the kind of fashion and vibe they had in Bristol skins had already been set elsewhere in more "avant-garde" areas/countries
Who actually cares if this is realistic or not? What a load of useless comments. This scene is not meant to be realistic, it's an introduction of the characters and the main storylines. Besides, try being a teacher, and then come talk to me about 'realistic' things teenagers would (not) say in class. Katie always depends on her boyfriends for selfworth, Emily places herself below Katie, Naomi is an activist but still needs to find peace within herself, JJ lets himself be defined by his condition, Effy wants to be tough but already shows signs of her own fragility because she's shaken to the core about her parents' relationship, Freddy is a hopeless romantic and is genuinely interested in Effy, while Cook is only looking for cheap thrills and not allowing himself to be vulnerable and a better version of himself. To top it of, Pandora is completely lost and depends on Effy to have some direction in her life. Anyone who's criticizing this scene years later, has lost the magic of the show and the connection with their inner teenager.
@@kpopggfan2524 in Britain “college” can be referred both to further education (last two years of high school) or higher education (university). Since they’re like 17yo, in this case it is like high school 😊
poor freddie, a very good guy in love with a crazy girl....if only he had known what it would lead him to...I don't know if he would have taken those risks looking at her
I keep thinking how this show is ''unrealistic'' even though i loved it, but then i think about my own youth and honestly it could have easily been made into couple of episodes 😅😅😅 we were messed up back then.. or i was at least lol
Everybody talking about how cringey dialogues are, I mean, what show did you watch? Skins was always weird, there is a chapter where they literally start singing out of nowhere! I think what always mattered was what they transmitted, not how they did it!
these boys did not know what was coming, i love effy but she really turned their lives upside down
FRR
Especially poor Freddie, stupid cow is the reason he died ;(
The fact that she was so unhappy with her own life that she messed up other people's lives without any responsability... smh
Frrrrrrr
Effy ruins everyone’s lives
she really looked at cook, watched him give her a joker smile and was like "Yes. he's the one." 😍🤣😂
I mean I love Cook as a character but I cant conceivably imagine a scenario in which anyone would seriously pick him over Freddie 😭
Or JJ for that matter 🥺
You’d be surprised how many people will give him numerous chances because he’s attractive and “exciting” But Cook would’ve been my absolute last resort 😭
he's the typical toxic boy all the girls love, but freddie just tops him :)
@@acotscohotdog JJ is a respectful king
I honestly would 😇

wait oh yeah omg
LMFAO
not a coincidence
And literally no one gave a shit either, which kinda sets up their entire storyline for you right then and there.

@Jordan May or maaaaaybe were not edgy 14 year olds anymore and can see through the act that effy puts on.
I think it's because the show's undergone a big revival in popularity since COVID due to TikTok and stuff like that. My guess is that a lot of the people here got into Gen 1 and never really liked any others. Also the majority of them are Cassie stans, and hate Effy and Sid
euphoria was like a bad nightmare
Lol Cook immediately perking up at 0:31 when JJ stands up. Bloody love it
I love how the teacher has his own sarcastic comment to add to everyone’s introduction

2:18 lmfao why is no one talking about cook's face😭 and the line "seven members of my immediate family have been on crimewatch"😭😭
we really thought effy was the it girl... only to rewatch it and realize that almost half of what she says is cringey.
“I never try” kkkkkkk
half of what she says is cringey but she somehow makes it work. that being said, she wouldnt get away with half the stuff shes done and said if she wasnt pretty. i love her but it is what it is
@@sofialara297 exactly bestie
lmao fr pretty much all she says is cringey
"I think I was born backwards 💔" soo deep..
please why did cook look like that in the thumbnail 😭💀
He looks Lila a psycho 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah it so looked like he was up to no good with that face
Freddie is such a sweetheart I love him so much 🥺
The uploader loves a bit of Gen 2 don't they,,,
Especially the two first episodies...
it is the best Gen tbf
dont we all
They've done a bunch of Gen 1, now Gen 2 I guess. I think they're doing a few from the first few episodes of each generation and then going back round
7 members of my immediate family have been on crime watch
Underrated line
The way he was sniffing that glue??? 🤨🤨
I miss Skins so much, there's almost nothing that creates a stronger feeling of nostalgia in me than this show
2:14 THAT CRACKED ME UP THE FIRST TIME AND STILL DOES LMAO
I’m screaming 😂😂😂😂 I just noticed thisss
In this scene Kieran kinda reminds me of a mix between Haymitch Abernathy and Mady-Eye Moody
lol i can see the mad eye moodie
its called being irish
this makes me wish i could watch skins for the first time again
The music that starts at 1:48 ALWAYS gets me
It’s the reaction of the teacher after for me 😂
Kieran is a mood.
Freddie literally lost his life trying to please effy 🙄
Kieran is literally me when starting a new job
2:18 the smile 😭
I watched this at 15 and got butterflies for Freddie and Effy and giggled....at almost 30 I still have the same. 🥰🥰😊😊🦋🦋💖💖
This show is so fucking good... Freddie s unique fact is Effy because she defined his life and she became his story. Its amazing bring skins back i would definitely donate for its production...
I wanted to be Effy so bad but I became Kieran
😂
"I'm Effy, and I think my mum's having an affair"
Cringiest line ever
i know right
yeah but 'sometimes i think i was born backwards' is a cringe legend
@@SilentEliz lmaooo I forgot about that one 💀
To quote JJ - "Ooh I'm so fit and mysterious"
@@SilentEliz i think that one is kind of poetic. maybe i need to reasses myself tho idk
Imagine having father Dougal as a teacher
I can't get over Cook
Cooks laugh at 2:53 is hilarious
I felt realy bad for Freddie in this part of skins
Does anyone know the girl who’s sitting beside Naomi ? She’s pretty 😻
This teacher is an Irish Gregory House lol

The wee gay man 😭
poor freddie, a very good guy in love with a crazy girl....if only he had known what it would lead him to...I don't know if he would have taken those risks looking at her
Fuck I love this show I’m gonna go rewatch it rn
i never seen a teacher always say fk fk fk .......
I never seen this show before but it looks interesting, I would like to watch this show now
same
used to have a teacher like that he could either be a total dick or a total badass
he still has the respect of everybody
I keep thinking how this show is ''unrealistic'' even though i loved it, but then i think about my own youth and honestly it could have easily been made into couple of episodes 😅😅😅 we were messed up back then.. or i was at least lol

Oh my god it's Father Dougal 😂
the teacher sounds like hes from derry-
kieran is so miserable you can tell he goes home and drinks lollll.
He's funny tho
I miss skins soooooo much 🥺
I love Freddie fr
Dougal has come a long way
The teacher lol
Dougal's had a tough ride hasn't he?
The ty❤😂
JJ will forever be my crush
Is he still your crush?
Shoutout to my fellow tism troopers we stand as one 🫡
He seems boring 🙈
what episode is this?
My balls are aching LMAO
Rule number one: don’t wifey or attempt to wifey the party sloots
Haha " I hate being a fucking teacher"
this was legit so cringe lmao if this was happening in class for me i’d be sinking so low into my seat
"See if she can laser Jordan off them" haha
am i dense? what does that line mean? help :')
i was 15 when this came out, I thought it was so good. I was so wrong
How could I not see before that the teacher is father Dougal XD
Naomi being in the closet but the guy right after admits he is gay 😂
Emily is fitter than Effey. Fact.
"Never had a boyfriend" might be the most unbelievable part of this show and that's saying a lot.
@AVerySillySausage she was gay. So, it's not really unbelievable
What is the title pf this movie?
Ardol o Hanlon: Fuck it!
Dermeot Morgan: Dougal!
Good video skins seems a good channel
Ardal is fuckin genius here
I used to think they were so cool as a teenager but God is this cringe to watch now
Ewww cook sniffing the glue and then making that face.
Ewww no
realizing how unrealistic and cringey skins actually was
Its dougle cant believe it
1:18
It’s werid seeing D.I Jack Mooney so rough looking
Godbless
