Tune in: Sundays at 10 p.m. on BBC America

You might think that Chuck Bass and the 90210 gang are the coolest kids on television right now but you’d be dead wrong. The real badass teens are over on British import Skins, an ensemble drama following the interweaving lives of an average group of 17-year-olds. It’s got sex, drugs and swearing but best of all, a sense of reality you’re unlikely to find in its American counterparts.
