I am a high school teacher and use this series for life skills. My students respond so well to it. In 1987 Degrassi was cutting edge and continues to be timeless. Mr Raditch was one of the reasons I became a teacher

To think the Degrassi cast went through this quite literally, no wonder Neil didn't like the song. I'm sure he wasn't the only one. They took everything from these kids, including their childhoods. They were paid next to penies. A big reason why Neil spiraled into the depression he did, even though his past or parents didnt help. A big reason why Snake stuck with the franchise was so he could continue making money with the only thing he really knew.... imagine being thrown in the real world after being a child actor. There was no laws or union back then. It's so wild to think about different such different dynamics of life than the average person.

Pat Mastroianni's character, Joey Jeremiah, along with is outgoing positive attitude in spite adversity personality, was a reason I watched Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High every week when I was a teenager. The series' ability to deal with real world teen issues late born Generation X teenagers faced made Degrassi a huge success.

What is weird, is we’re here in the USA, watching the episodes on KZitem, and most of us didn’t get to see past the jr high show, back in the day, it wasn’t carried. so the lost episodes have been playing for about 6 months in our home and will probably play for the next year. It’s like a prime time show for us, and my son, who’s 15 and really looks like Joey Jeremiah, and went as him for Halloween this year. It’s odd what the internet has done to tv. Many of the shows produced now aren’t nearly as good, well written, and especially family friendly as shows produced long ago, or even in other nations, like Canada. And the internet now allows us to treat shows like they’re books, and only read the ones worth reading. And Degrassi is wonderfully written and acted, and definitely worth reading. And Comicon is a great place to showcase the stars of it, who are more popular in some places now than they’ve ever been, like our house. Here’s to hoping they do comicon in the US soon. We’d go see em.

There was major a difference between Degrassi and those Hollywood sitcoms. Most Hollywood sitcoms, a character was a problem. Then before the episode is over, his/her problem is solved and everybody is happy. Next episode, another character has a problem. Before the episode, the problem is solved and everybody is happy. On Degrassi, the problems were not solved. The characters on Degrassi had to live with the problems and deal with them. That was way more realistic than those silly Hollywood sitcoms. Life is cruel to most people. People have to learn to live with life's disappointments.
