It took a couple episodes, but now I'm invested.

I was a big fan of the first few seasons of Skins, and I think the comparison is unavoidable. Ed really is just a less f**cked up version of Sid.

As said, it took me a few episodes to really get into it, but I'm really into this show. I like the characters, the cinematography (more often than not, it tries too hard, but I don't really mind that in this instance), and for the most part the writing is solid. And that's not even touching on the very talented youngish cast. I hope the show is on long enough for me to properly enjoy it.
