Having gone into a rage solely on the basis of the show's trailer, the Parents Television Council has now called for a government investigation into MTV's new show Skins, based on a viewing of the first episode. A sample quote from their letter:
In addition to the sexual content on the show involving cast members as young as 15, PTC counted 42 depictions and references to drugs and alcohol in the premiere episode.
Let's not forget that the original British show is considerably racier than its American clone. And look what's happened in Britain - the Plague, the Hundred Years' War, Jack the Ripper, and Rick Astley.
