MTV not canceling Skins, promises to stand behind horny teens

Skins may have suffered a 50-percent decline in ratings and a mass exodus of advertisers like Taco Bell who don’t want the show’s juvenile suggestiveness anywhere near their big beefy burritos, yet despite recent rumors that the show is on the verge of cancellation, MTV has declared that it plans to air all 10 scheduled episodes of the show about teens living, laughing, and lesbian-cheerleading. “MTV stands by the US adaptation of Skinsand the vision of its creator Bryan Elsley,” the network said in an official statement. And if MTV doesn’t stand up for television about attractive young people doing it, who will?
