MTV Cancels Controversial 'Skins' MTV-SKINS_320

It was one of the most talked about new dramas of the past year, and MTV’s most-discussed scripted show ever.

Yet the controversial Skins will not be back for a second season.

“Skins is a global television phenomenon that, unfortunately, didn’t connect with a US audience as much as we had hoped,” said MTV in a statement. “We admire the work that the series’ creator Bryan Elsley did in adapting the show for MTV, and appreciate the core audience that embraced it.”

When MTV first announced the acclaimed UK dramedy would get a U.S. revamp, fans were skeptical an ad-supported cable network could maintain the show’s rebellious and graphic nature.

Ratings rose for the show’s March finale to 1.2 million viewers and the series outperformed last summer’s first season of The Hard Times of R.J. Berger — which was renewed. But Skins was inaccurately bashed as “child pornography” by the Parents Television Council and bled advertisers scared off by the headlines and boycott threats.

The show’s creator had defended the series as a “rather old fashioned television series,” and says its content is “a very serious attempt to get to the roots of young people’s lives. It tries to tell the truth. Sometimes that truth can be a little painful to adults and parents.”

Thoughts?

Did you watch this show?

Are you surprised it was cancelled?

I wish I could say that I was surprised that the show was going to be canceled. The only thing I'm surprised about is that it lasted as long as it did.

Lol why? Because it was THAT bad?

or TOO contriversial?

It sucked, it wasn't to compare with the original, almost made me cry watching the Pilot, thats how BAD it was. You can't lower the racy tone of Skins and expect it to do well.

They TRIED to make it as innocent as possible and FAILED.

THE ONLY reason why this was made.......was because the british version was TOO explict for US television. Despite a group of AMAZING...and I mean AMAZING actors, it would be TOO much...the parents council would be all over it like it was hot bread.
