I didn't watch Gen III partly because I thought it was ridiculous carrying the show on with a completely new cast and partly because I no longer felt like I was part of the target audience; Skins resonated with me when I was 17ish because that's how old the characters were and while the show was dramatised for the sake of it being a television show, it still spoke to me and many others like me about things that we were all going through. So I can't comment on the quality of Gen III's acting or writing because I never watched it. It just seems strange that they'd have a seventh series to "wrap it all up" yet it's only three characters, one from Gen I, one from Gen II and one that appeared in both. Why no Gen III characters? Why not get all of the actors is back (aside from those who were killed off) or as many as possible? Why those three and whichever others featured in their stories?
