[UK] E4 Skins


Recommended Posts

it's probably had 11 proper complaints but saying to your friend isnt really a complaint its a thought :p, if all those people complained the show wouldnt be on air no more :alien:

aha, yeah, I was just saying that more people were "worried" (for lack of a better word) by the ending, or annoyed about it than e4 are trying to make out.

E4 responds to feedback on Effy's episode.

?Thank you for your feedback on Effy?s and Freddie?s stories

Mental health charity MIND were consulted on the production of episode 5 which dealt specifically with Effy?s psychosis. Freddie?s murder in episode 7 was an off shoot of this storyline. The character John Foster is purely fictional, a TV ?baddie? and a pivotal part of a heightened fictional scenario, climaxing in the shocking end of this episode which was broadcast just before 11pm.

Scheduling Skins at 10pm allows us to include adult content, however we do take your comments seriously, and it was not our intention to cause distress to viewers

Channel 4?

What gives i mean even if MIND were consulted it still dosen't portray an acceptable story for the teenagers that watch Skins, as mentioned before Drungs and Drink shouldn't be promoted in the way that it is, even if it was broadcast at 10pm you can watch it anytime you want on 4od so that argument is ridiculous.

Channel 4 are just trying to cover up this massive heff up

'Skins' exec promises "fun" series five

The executive producer of Skins has promised fans that the upcoming fifth series will be more fun.

Series four has received criticism from viewers following Freddie's (Luke Pasqualino) murder during last week's episode, which some deemed an necessary plot twist.

Responding to the comments, Skins boss John Griffin agreed that the current series should have been less depressing, but defended the decision to kill off Freddie.

The Sun quotes him as saying: "Next series we will see all the fun of Skins again."

The series four finale of Skins airs tonight at 10pm on E4.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
