Does anyone else DISLIKE Skins (UK version)?

After hearing everyone rave about how amazing Skins is, I decided to give it a shot and I honestly thought it was terrible. I find it really boring with the occasional interesting episode, I don't really like any of the characters, and I don't find it funny at all (apparently some parts of it are supposed to be humorous). Maybe I just don't get British humor. I know it's supposed to depict the so-called "reality" of teenage life, or at least a darker side to it, but I just find it incredibly boring. the whole show is basically them going around doing drugs and having . It's just really uninteresting to me. I watched series 1, skipped to series 3 hoping the new cast would be better, and i did like it better, but not enough to keep me watching. your opinions?
