Skins S6 continues to puzzle me. I mean it started well - I thought the bike scene was A++++. But then...HJKSALSD I know I have been saying this to you a lot lately. But initially, everything seemed OOC to me! Franky getting out of that car all shouty shouty, the Mini/Alo hookup because Mini is all about sex. IDK.

Then this episode things picked up! Although ITA that if there was someone they ought to have canned, it certainly should have been Alo.

The fact that he was hallucinating was SUCH A BUMMER. Also yeah, I agree, Rich doing it was comatose Grace was pretty hilarious but it also served to make Professor Blood seem more...well, reasonable? And Professor Blood is not reasonable (hence why he's one of my fav things about this showww <3)

The random chick in their band is pretty awesome, tho.

TRUFAX. She needs more scenes!

Per usual, Skins’ house parties are like no house parties I’ve ever been to.

LOL. Also true!

“She would have thought that you were her dad, and that’s what you’re supposed to do.” This is actually one of ( ... )

Yeah, Mini and Franky's characters are just trashed. RIP, just like Grace. siiiiigh.

But when I pretend Mini is a new character named Moira, then 6.02 was pretty good.

I agree that Grace was a much more valuable character than Alo (IF ONLY), but I suppose they wanted to make sure to kill someone that all of the characters would be deeply affected by. And that all of the audience loved. ALAS POOR GRACE, YOU WERE SLAIN BY YOUR OWN INHERENT LIKEABILITY.

This is actually one of my top Skins scenes EVER. Best part of the episode!!!
THIS. Man, when Skins really gets something right, they tend to hit it out of the park. Pretty much why I can never break up with this show.

Ooooh you have zeh Skins icons. I see what you do there ;)

Agreed re Franky and Mini. Matty I am massively side-eyeing as well :/

ALAS POOR GRACE, YOU WERE SLAIN BY YOUR OWN INHERENT LIKEABILITY.

YES, YES that's true! But if they keep on killing everything good about the show, there ain't gonna be that much left. The horny!Mini show lacks potential!

Oh I've told myself that I'm going to stop watching 'Skins' a million times. Most recently after 6X02. It's never going to work!
