Very Cool!!!

Thanks for the memories!

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Season 10 on up is my favIt's so addictive And fun

On one of the old episode's when Paige's was showing her midriffs. Nikki commented on how "obscene" the shirt was. Then Paige commented on her eyeliner. While she had a right to be mad. Paige shirt wasn't as obscene as she made it out to be. She must of been jealous because she had a better body than her. What was she suppose to wear? She sounds like a mom in over halls. So conservative. I seen girls showing much more than her. Can't women show a little skin? And on one of the episode's when Bianca sent sexy picture to Alli's boyfriend Drew. Instead of deleting the picture he showed it to his friend in class. If I was Alli I would throw his phone in the river. Showing off provocative pictures of other girls is immature and attention seeking. What kind of loser shows others provocative pictures of other girls. Real classy.

Degrassi is a box of stinky cliché cut out of the side of every teenage melodrama ever made with ignorant one-sided caricatures lacking any form of depth or complexity. However, despite its shallow nature and laziness, Degrassi has a strong appeal that manages to grip us with honest observation. It takes the sex and status that defines high school and displays it for us. The fact of the matter is that it reveals no insights but preys off the human need for dramatics and that is the shallow but gripping appeal of this program. It also lacks social prejudice and openly deals with drug use, homosexuality, and exclusion that happens in high schools. Watching it will give teenagers insight into their lives by giving insight to others like them and that alone is a good reason to watch this.

Degrassi The Next Generation is a wonderfully refreshing teen drama that centers around the lives of several teenagers and young adults. It's nice to see these kids go through the same types of issues that I myself went through as a teenager. The show debuted in 2001 (and was based on the original 80s series Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High) to critical acclaim.Even if the show has it's moments of total dorkiness, it is responsible for launching the successful careers of Nina Dobrev (Vampire Diaries), Drake and Shenae Grimes (90210). That's gotta count for something! The show itself is well-written, directed and acted. The plots are always engaging and the actors are actually the ages that they are portraying, which is always nice (does anybody remember Dawson's Creek? Sigh). Ultimately, I'd say the show is interesting, the stories are real, and it does not shy away from the issues (however controversial they may be). Give it a chance.And for those who were fans of the original 80s series. Trust me, The Next Generation somehow manages to stand alone while paying homage to what made the original series so great: real issues + real teens = real life/entertainment.Give it a chance! 9.5/10
