Synopsis: Legendary film and television producer Jerry Bruckheimer
teams with writer-producer Jim Leonard to bring dynamic and visually
compelling storytelling to FOX with their intense character drama Skin,
a series that exposes a world of forbidden love, naked ambition, family
betrayals and the business of moral corruption.
As Chairman and CEO of Golden Intl., Larry Goldman (Ron Silver) is
the most successful producer of adult entertainment in the world. His
morally ambiguous, yet legitimate, business endeavors have afforded
his family every material possession they could want or need, but his
wife Barbara (Pamela Gidley) still strives to obtain the social acceptance
their family lacks.
Passion and politics collide when Goldman and his adult entertainment
empire are challenged by hardnosed District Attorney Thomas Roam (Kevin
Anderson). Their professional battle takes a personal turn when they
learn Goldman's daughter, Bel-Air teen Jewel (Olivia Wilde) is having
a romance with Eastsider Adam (D.J. Corona) who, as fate will have it,
is the D.A.'s son. Adam's Latina mother, Laura (Rachel Ticotin), is
a judge who controls both her courtroom and household. Like her husband,
she is vehemently opposed to their son dating Jewel.
In a world of cultural, economic, and moral contrasts, two misunderstood
teens struggle against their parents' efforts to keep them apart, as
power, politics, and money become weapons in the war between their families.
