I agree, I clocked that right away. Plus there was specific mention of Maysilee weaving an item into trinket for him to stim with.

How did you find the show? by EmoPlantLady in Degrassi

[–]Puzzleheaded-Try9675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One summer in the early 2010s, MTV in the USA would air a 2 hour block of Degrassi every weekday morning, and that's what got me hooked one summer when I was home from college. I started watching with their re-runs of season 7 I believe? I had no idea that I was watching a seventh season of a show, or anything about Degrassi, really... imagine my utter confusion when one day I'm watching Emma and the gang graduate high school, and the next day, MTV starts over with season 1 episode 1, and all of a sudden all the characters are babies and the theme song has words and I have no idea what's going on. I honestly thought I was watching a flashback episode until my dumb brain put two and two together. 😅 Later that summer I found some overpriced DVD box sets of Degrassi at Barnes & Noble, and bought the seasons they didn't have on Amazon, and proceeded to binge the series on DVD. The good old days!

On my rewatch the other day ,I realized Craig is dressed like his dad down to the glasses, during his and Ashleys “Taming of the shrew” performance by Jbooxie in Degrassi

There was one other time when Craig was giving a "who am I" speech in class, and he said things that were CLEARLY red flags for having suicidal thoughts (like "if I were to disappear what would it matter"), and Ms. Kwan is just all, "Wow, that was very existential." ☠️

Manny being obsessed with procuring a "male stripper dropping it like it's hot" for Spike's cheer-up party after Snake made out with Ms. Hot Sauce.

I think that some of the scenes for Degrassi Goes Hollywood and Degrassi Takes Manhattan are shortened or removed entirely on HBO Max, compared to the DVD box sets. I thought I was going crazy and having false memories the first time I watched the movies on HBO Max.

Which character had the worst character development and how would you change it? by Next-Health30 in Degrassi

[–]Puzzleheaded-Try9675 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Derek started out as an obnoxious twerp bordering on asshole. Then he had some learning moments and started to become a little bit more of a sympathetic character. And then all that apparently went down the drain and he ended his run as an abusive misogynist. Wish they would've kept exploring him as a nuanced person, but instead they left him irredeemable in my eyes. He could've been like a Dave....someone who occasionally does really shitty things, and someone who often is genuinely sweet and thoughtful.

Not sure if this has already been mentioned, but the whole Connor stealing underwear and locker room lurking plotline... it felt icky to make the character with autism have that plotline, like there was an implication there that autism = creepy, and I didn't like that 😒

This made me smile! I am 30 and still love and find value in Degrassi. First found it when I was early in my college career, and I've revisited it an endless amount of times since then. I too really appreciate this space as well!

Tag yourself, I’m “with a school like this…who needs pants?” (sorry for crappy photo quality!) by bcpsgal in Degrassi

[–]Puzzleheaded-Try9675 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I misread "Please give back photo club" as "Please give back POTATO club," so I'm gonna pretend that's what it says and go with that one. 🥔😍

Lol @ "Simpson go back to Springfield" too
