An essay on characterisation (HOW DID THIS END UP BEING SO LONG?)

Feb 27, 2011 22:46

Why does Skins do this to me every time? It makes me think I'll hate everyone, and in the end, I love them.

( In which I compare Nick to Katie (bear with me, I swear it makes sense) and talk for too long about spoilers for S5 upto and including 5.05 )

Oh, I think that his dad is potentially the worst type of parent, because they're not really doing anything wrong. I mean, look at Liv's mum, she's clearly not paying attention to her kids, and always has fads which seem to be more important, which everyone recognises is a 'bad thing' from a parenting perspective and everyone can see that and understand, whereas Nick has someone who is overly interested in shaping him and there's no room for him to express himself how he wants to, but that's not recognised as being bad. I can identify with that, and it's so frustrating when you don't know the words to tell your parent/s to back off just a little, without completely offending them and losing all of their support. Turns out Nick went for it, so it'll be interesting to see his dad's next move (that is of course, if we get to see that in the episodes ( ... )

Yeah I sort of agree with you about Matty/Liv. I wasn't against it, but really, I'm waaaaay more pro Nick/Liv.

I'll be amazed if they have me liking Mini by the end of this. I get her insecurities, really I do, but how she's going about things, and dealing with it all is pretty awful.

YES! T- 4 HOURS UNTIL THE GINGER GOD TAKES CENTRE STAGE!
