bruh the writers really had to put Drew with every girl on the show, absolutely unhinged. highkey wish there had been more time/focus on Clare and Drew because their dynamic was fun to watch, and their friendship developed naturally. plus the banter was fun.
As much as I don't think JT and Manny were a good couple, I do think that it's fairly realistic that people in that age range who have been friends for a long time might attempt to date, and that it would feel weird and awkward lol So I'm glad they broke up, but I'm not mad that they tried it. I also feel like Manny and Spinner could have been a really fun couple if the writers had given them time to develop. The buildup and subsequent anticlimactic execution were disappointing, and it just ended up feeling like they shouldn't have bothered to write it in if they weren't going to follow through, but the potential was there
JT only wanted Manny when she had her new look, which made him like the other boys. Manny liked that JT was one of the only ones who didn’t judge her based off her reputation and rumors spread about her. It’s clear Manny really wasn’t into the relationship with JT at all, she didn’t even want to kiss him… she didn’t really like him like that even when they were going out. They were better as friends
Also I hated any relationship that involved a student and teacher. Matt and Paige was super cringey. Like bro, she needed to use a fake id to get into a bar to see you. She too young for you man!!! The guy that was smashing Tristan was just grooming, gaslighting, and assault at it's finest and don't even get me started on Sav and Ms. Oh! First off how did SAV pull Ms. Oh? What was she thinking? I'm sorry but Sav doesn't have enough charm to pull a grown woman. It was beyond inappropriate.
I talked about how weird that part was on a fan website and, I'm not even kidding you, I got like 50 replies saying it's totally fine because technically not illegal. I was so confused bc I honestly didn't expect the community to react like that. I reminded me of people who instantly yell at you if you point out how creepy it is to marry someone who just turned 18.
ellie and craig yes thank you!!! i felt like everyone shipped them back in the day, but you are absolutely right. ellie was unbearable with her crush on him. they completely changed her character just to fit her having a crush on him 😓 awful
@@stephsux she has daddy and mommy issues. and most of the time, people with those issues tend to seek validation from men, fall in love with toxic men, and much more. i understand why her character is like that, i sorta relate to her. SORTA.
@@realestsienna Even though she did become a bit annoying when she became obsessed with Craig I could relate to her to an EXTENT Sometimes it can be hard getting over someone
Its about time someone acknowledges Imogens part in the breakup of her and Eli. We just loooove to make it seem like it was alllllll Elis fault. But you said it perfectly. She brought out all his triggers and basically rubbed the bipolar diagnosis in his face
When Imogen was first introduced she was the worst; she was manipulative, conniving, and obsessive She was so mean to Claire for no reason besides her jealous, pretended to be Claire to feel Eli’s love for her, agreed to take his meds from him, and whenever he was on the edge of crazy she always pushed him off After she got over Eli and was discovering her bisexuality she became one of my favorites but rewatching is hard
To me KC and Jenna was the most toxic couple on the show, they just brought out the absolute worst in each other and I feel like KC was kind of emotionally abusive in the way he would yell at her, talk down to her and then make her apologize. People keep saying that Jenna deserved it because she 'stole' KC from Clare (which I do think was an awful thing to do) but it still does not excuse treating your girlfriend like garbage.
It's more poetic justice than anything, but you are right in that KC shouldn't have treated Jenna like shit. In all honesty, it just goes to show how KC would have been a shitty boyfriend to both Clare and Jenna even if Jenna and KC didn't cheat.
But when Jenna found out she was pregnant she didn't tell KC right away, if she did she probably would've been able to get an abortion which was their plan but it ended up being too late, I hate when women get pregnant and wait a WHILE to tell their husband, boyfriend, etc, like their gonna find out eventually so what's the point in keeping it a secret
They really didn't give Eli or Clare any good relationships while they were apart.. It always annoys me thinking back on how Imogen created art with all of Eli's business out in the open without his consent and then made him the bad guy when he didn't like it... like???
I really hate the trope of a teen couple gets together only to find out they're going to be step siblings but still try to date. Like one of the couples is going to have to break up and I doubt its gonna be the adults who are already married.
Why do you hate the trope when they didn’t get together knowing they were step siblings? There’s a difference between step siblings dating, and people who are dating who then unknowingly become step siblings. Also, this happened on teen mom lol. And the parents ended up getting divorced
@@BabyGirlTiny i know there's a difference its just that every time this trope happens the teens relationship never works out so them trying to still date despite now being step siblings felt pointless and only there to make drama for the show. Especially in degrassi jake and clare were never gonna work out and them becoming step siblings is pointless drama when everyone knew her and eli were gonna get back together
Catelynn and Tyler Baltierra were dating for years before their parents decided to get married. They are married and have 3 children, not including the one they have up for adoption. If anything, it's the parents being selfish in this.
I think Manny & JT were so obviously not gonna make sense that the writers did it on purpose. Manny was looking for something safe after getting hurt. Plus I think it actually replicates lots of high school relationships that are really awkward/one-sided. So I thought it was a good thing to put in the show.
Thank you for pointing out how Drew went after EVERY girl Adam liked!! I HATED when Drew and Becky got together. Also Drew should’ve known better than to get with Zoe at that point during his Degrassi journey. Now, enough about Drew… I agree completely with this lis and I love this video! You earned a subscriber!
I didn't like Holly J & Blue. They could have just left it as her having a crush on him that didn't go beyond that. It was like watching oil and water mix. Ashley & Jimmy. Idk why they got back together when she returned to Degrassi. Ellie's last few seasons were filled with boy drama and slowly made her unlikable character. Alli had some bad relationships. I don't like Dallas but he was her most stable relationship. I had erased the Drew & Becky pairing from my memory.
Honestly felt like the writers ran out of things to write about so they forced these unnecessary couples on us. Majority of the couples on the show was cringy. I’m watching it back now that I’m older I’m like woah degrassi took dramatic to a whole different level. These characters was 14-17 going through some stuff I haven’t even experienced and I’m 33 years old lol. They was too of an extreme couple for just for them to be teenagers.
KC and Jenna were not a great couple, but they were entertaining as hell. I loved their pregnancy storyline, because it was much different than anything else I'd seen on tv.
Watching Adam get killed off broke me. But watching Drew get together with Becky genuinely ANGERED me And while I'm on Drew, It was so stupid when he was with Zoe. He plans to marry Bianca then ruins everything. My honorable mention goes to Sav and Winnie OH. Students dating teachers is already weird but in the end, their relationsip....was so forgettable, at least imo
I like Jonah and Frankie for some reason but Frankie really did lose her mind. If she had just stop being so “do you like me, do you like me” it would have worked out lol
@@nysclips and when lola was on that dating site to get pizza and got tiny in trouble, I couldn’t stand her cause the events that happened after wouldn’t have happened if she just deleted the app
I agree with all your picks for the reasons that you said with a few exceptions. I really think Jake and Clare worked until they tried to keep it going after their parents got married. I can see why they tried to keep it going as long as they did but they should have seen the writing on the wall. Besides the whole cheating on his comatose boyfriend thing I see what they were going for with Miles and Lola. Lola grew as a character and if it weren't for Tristan I could see that relationship working. Sav and Holly J are in my Top 5 Degrassi ships. I loved the carefree, let's just see where this thing goes attitude they had. There were no expectations and the made a great team which I think added to the chemistry. Everyone knew it wasn't forever and the low stakes made everything kinda charming and innocent.
Am I the only one who didn’t understand Paige and Spinner? Paige presented herself as this sophisticated, smart queen bee and Spinner was a burp the alphabet kind of guy 😭 I did not understand what they were supposed to have in common.
I agree manny and Jimmy would be so great but tbh manny and spinner LOOK good together like they were à Good looking couple until spinner went for the emo-cut😭
Thank you for talking about Manny and Spinner because they literally had no scenes as a couple and then just broke up. I felt cheated. Especially after all that build up and flirting and that’s what we got. They could have been cute if the writers gave them a chance.
The one thing about Becky and Drew that makes me give it a pass (I don't ship it but I'm not outright disgusted by it) is that it's not uncommon for people to date their dead partner's sibling or another close family member after that person passes. Also they didn't start dating immediately after Adam died, but after some time and forming a friendship. I don't love their relationship, but I didn't care too much that it was happening either. I was more pissed about Clare and Drew being shafted before we got to see them get together.
No that's not what happened, his friend charged at JT with a knife which caught him off guard as he wasn't expecting his friend to do that, plus they were both drunk so he probably ran in a state of panic
Claire and Jake made me so uncomfortable. I had to skip through all of those scenes because it made me wanna barf. It reminds me a lot of the relationship between the foster siblings in The Fosters which also made me uncomfortable.
Marco and Dylan. Like really boring and honestly think Marco could have done better. I feel sad that Riley and Zane never really get brought up, because I feel they were the best m/m relationship on the show. Riley was not the best at the beginning, but Zane (who’s my favorite character on Degrassi) made him a great guy.
Zane deserved so muuuuch!!!! It makes me so sad he didn’t get a good fun/healthy boyfriend Cuz Riley got better with time but there was no growth due to homophobia still being part of Riley’s life
@@nysclips I haven’t even got past season 3 yet (I started the show around season 7/8 when I first watched it), but I don’t like him. Like he’s ok, but I think Marco should have gotten a better boo.
I get what you mean about JT/Manny and I do agree with you, but I think that it worked in the show because I know growing up of seeing similar dynamics play out. I have seen people be in a friend group, be pretty tight, one gets a make-over/glow-up and then someone in their friend group ends up and a friend either confesses of past feelings or feelings end up happening (hormones) or they were just drinking and ended up hooking up and then they date and it's awkward af. Then there are times where that does turn out to be a good thing and they end up married or whatever, but I know from my own experiences it was more awkward than anything mainly due to it being one sided with physically/emotionally (like a person really wants the sex but not really the baggage that comes with a relationship.)
Drew and Becky: they trauma bonded that’s it lol no spark notttaa Clare & Jake: they wanted Fiona and Declan to be a romantic relationship but it was too weird for digrassi Jenna and JC: I remember for some reason I had a crush on JC but Jenna deserved better Ali and Jonny: eww okay Drew and Zoe: man’s is pretty much an adult but he mentally stays 15 and Zoe was annoying but she deserved a guy or girl who really loved her JT and Manny: JT and what’s her face and endgame Eli and Emagen: she’s too self aware for him Manny and spinner: odd ew Sav and Holly J: they were freaking bored and made the uniforms happen so 🍅🍅🍅 CRAIG AND ANYONE WAS A HOT MESS 😂😂
i was gonna include toby and liberty but it was kind of a one-episode thing so i decided to leave it out but was definitely disgusting when he kissed her after JT died like sir wtf do you think you're doing😂
Omg yes! Thank you thank you THANK YOU! You have no idea how frustrating it is to hear all your friends say “aww omg! Drew and Becky are so cute together” every time I hear that i cringe, pull my hair and say “HOW!?!?!?!”
Here's my thing for Drew and Becky, in real life you can't help who you fall for. I don't think that Becky should have been off limits after his brother died because what are they supposed to do? And step siblings are not siblings. Especially when they have only lived together for a little while. I wouldn't even consider them related so the Clare and Jake relationship did not bother me one bit
Everyone in this list is a total screwup! None of them are perfect couples. They’re only devils who are trapped in the consequences of sins and the writers who make them turn against each other! When’s the nightmares ever gonna end and that there’ll be TRUE love!? PERFECT LOVE!
I'm finally watching Degrassi after years of people praising it's name - and of course obsessing over scene compilations on TH-cam (it's just as good as I thought it was, by the way)! I haven't made it pass season six, but yes, Craig and Ellie was bull-ish (excuse my language). The couple I dislike the most so far, though, is Daryl and Marco. Daryl cheated, then had the nerve to come back (most likely after he got lonely when he realized his f**k buddies weren't interested in being friends), and tell Marco that everyone Marco would date after him would really be all about him, Daryl! What?! It was giving me some type of emotional, mental, manipulative abuse vibes (whatever it's called). So far he's been neglectful, and has failed to mention that he was planning on moving to Switzerland. Then to see Paige pulling the same emotional roller-coaster nonsense with Alex, I'm like, 'This bull-ish runs in the family!'. Makes me wonder who's the troublemaker amongst the parents, mommy or poppy.
Yeah, the Degrassi writers *LOVED* to make us suffer through horrible ships for *LITERALLY* no reason 🤢😭 Considering that Derek and Casey from Life With Derek (another Canadian kid/teen show) are still shipped today, Jake and Claire being a thing sadly doesn’t surprised me
I HATED Claire and Jake but to play devil's advocate: they were dating before they knew their parents were. It is pretty fuckin weird they stayed together after the wedding but feelings don't just go away because of an odd life change
As a person who litterally grew up with the kids on the next generation. Cause im like 35. Only couple I truly liked threw eveything waa Clare and Eli. Which says alot that they were the only couple who seemed real. The next generation kids were everywhere. Now if we wanna go futhur back ill talk about some Degrassi junior high and high. That was my fav Degrassi
I hated Adam and Fiona so much. I don't know why. I don't have words for it. Also I'm genuinely convinced they didn't know what to do with Drews character so they just made him date everyone he interacted with.
I agree with you on Sav & Holly J. I think they are better as friends and there really wasn’t any chemistry with them. They totally remind me of Dan & Blair from Gossip Girl
I always saw Drecky as a trauma bonding couple. Also, I thought Adam was trying g to get to Imogen and was going to break up with Becky…. I’m not a fan of them, but I understood why they found comfort in one another.
I thought I was the only one who didn’t like Sav and Holly.J . It just felt too random Craig and Manny was a couple I hated they just brought out the worst in each other and it also started from cheating so that’s always a big no. By the time they weren’t toxic I just couldn’t care for their relationship Glad Manny ended up with Jay, they are my OTP Agree with all of these expect Spinner and Paige I liked them together. Though Palex is my favorite ship for Paige and Spane for Spinner (before she cheated on him)
Time to be unpopular and say my one of my favorite ships was actually Allie and Johnny and before y’all come for me in the comments, no, I do not condone him and the revenge porn at all, that was terrible and disgusting and deserves hate for that. But some parts of their relationship I thought were kinda cute; also it was the first bad boy, good girl trope before we had Claire and Eli and a lot of people forget that because it didn’t last long. Ijs Also, Sav and Holly J were cute, fight with a wall 😝😝
no because eli with imogen was AWFUL. She was so toxic and every time he would have an emotion she didn't like, she would bring up his bipolar disorder? Which always bugs me about the seasons with Eli because no one really sticks up for him in those moments?? EVERYONE would blame his bipolar disorder and tell him to take his meds when he was justifiably upset.
Hmm degrassi was lowkey promoting incest I forgave them with Claire because they were only steak siblings but shit was still weird asf. Then they had Declan and Fiona kiss and it absolutely made no sense
Fiona did that because she was always attached with declan and when he got with holly j she didn't like being separated because the attachment and acted out in a shocking way to get attention
Am I the only one who couldn't stand Damian with anyone?? He really was for the streets LOL Went through the whole friend group! Also Jane and Declan cuz....WHAT?! They had no chemistry IMO
I don’t see how Jimmy and Manny could’ve worked personally. Manny likes the more artsy bad boy types. Jimmy is like the popular athlete. I don’t think he would have been her type.
Yay my comment made it into a TH-cam video! I agree with your opinions in this video. Jt liked Manny more than she liked him. They were better as friends. Also Manny and Spinner made no sense to me lol.
Also I don’t understand what alli saw in Johnny. Like you said he treated her like shit. I can probably count on hand the amount of times he was actually nice to her.
I really didn't like Sean and Emma. She wanted to do what she wants and not want he wants. When they broke up she went on a rampage to make his life miserable.
@@nysclips and what's crazy is that he really didn't do anything bad to her. He got frustrated with her B.S and she once tried to get him and his friends arrested for stealing school equipment. Technically they were but still it was a bit much.
@@cheshirerose2001 Because he was the stereotypical bad boy and she was the stereotypical good girl that would keep him in line and keep him from doing too much
@@thedarkprince1987 as she should try to get them arrested wtf????😭😭 what sean and his friends did was WRONG, she had every right to feel that way. and she’s not obligated to do what he wants all the time, i do think she was self centered at times, but i think the way you worded it makes it sound like a stupid reason to hate her.
lola and miles was frustrating, lola kept acting like shay being happy with tiny caused her the same level of pain miles had from tristan being in a coma
the thing w clare & jake is soo gross & reminds me a lot of the show “life w derek,” where the main characters derek & casey have a weird sexual tension between them throughout the whole show… idk what’s up w canadian teen sitcoms & that borderline incesty vibe but its p sus... (oddly enough life w derek featured a lot of the same actors that went on to degrassi, Adam was the little sister, fionas mom was the mom in life w derek also, as well as miles’s dad being the stepdad in life w derek!!)
Jake and Claire were already a couple before the parents got married, I don't see that as gross I know they became step-siblings but that doesn't mean the feelings just go away it's not like they were revealed to be blood-related siblings. I mean should they have stopped after the marriage yeah for sure, but I can understand why they couldn't.
Same, I didn’t find it as gross cause they were together before they knew their parents were I really liked them together Jake was a peaceful and fun influence on Claire It sucks that it was never gonna work out but I’m glad it happened
@@merryberry6576 I think I would have liked their relationship better if it didn't feel so rushed to me...than again, it could be argued that a good amount of Degrassi couples were rushed to some degree 😂😂
Well now I need a rating of the Degrassi parents because I only thought Audra was a good mom when Drew got with Zoe and when she decided to start helping Bianca instead of berate her. Those are the only two times I liked her. Also, did you or do you have a video of relationships/friendships you would have liked to see or see grow in Degrassi? If not, I’d wanna hear your thoughts on that one too.
Unpopular opinion: I actually liked Miles and Lola🫣 and I wish they got more time together; I feel like their relationship ended so suddenly and I don’t think they barely even talked after that (idk if I’m right about that last part cause I haven’t watched next class in years)
bruh the writers really had to put Drew with every girl on the show, absolutely unhinged. highkey wish there had been more time/focus on Clare and Drew because their dynamic was fun to watch, and their friendship developed naturally. plus the banter was fun.

it shouldn’t even be about “charm” tbh, teachers shouldn’t date students at all

I like Jonah and Frankie for some reason but Frankie really did lose her mind. If she had just stop being so “do you like me, do you like me” it would have worked out lol
I liked Jonah and Becky
@@nysclips and when lola was on that dating site to get pizza and got tiny in trouble, I couldn’t stand her cause the events that happened after wouldn’t have happened if she just deleted the app
@@kameryn2918 and if frankie never went into his Facebook account, they could have worked
I agree with all your picks for the reasons that you said with a few exceptions. I really think Jake and Clare worked until they tried to keep it going after their parents got married. I can see why they tried to keep it going as long as they did but they should have seen the writing on the wall. Besides the whole cheating on his comatose boyfriend thing I see what they were going for with Miles and Lola. Lola grew as a character and if it weren't for Tristan I could see that relationship working. Sav and Holly J are in my Top 5 Degrassi ships. I loved the carefree, let's just see where this thing goes attitude they had. There were no expectations and the made a great team which I think added to the chemistry. Everyone knew it wasn't forever and the low stakes made everything kinda charming and innocent.
I like Paige and Spinner, but I hate how bad he treated her when she went beta. 🤦
Am I the only one who didn’t understand Paige and Spinner? Paige presented herself as this sophisticated, smart queen bee and Spinner was a burp the alphabet kind of guy 😭 I did not understand what they were supposed to have in common.
@@kameryn2918 Life can be complicated. xD I guess it's a major opposites attract thing.
@@kameryn2918 She was with him because he was basically her lap dog. He was good for her ego
I agree manny and Jimmy would be so great but tbh manny and spinner LOOK good together like they were à Good looking couple until spinner went for the emo-cut😭
i was justttt thinking that 😭 its like after he cut it she was out of his league
I wouldn't say that because I didn't like his long curly hair. I think I prefer the emo-cut.
@@njyawndra8609 nooooo🙊
@@njyawndra8609 suferboy spinner was my vibe😌 or spinner with bleached hair🥹.
s3 manny and s2 spinner would’ve ateeee omg😭😭
or at least s4 manny and s3 spinner with the curly hair
Thank you for talking about Manny and Spinner because they literally had no scenes as a couple and then just broke up. I felt cheated. Especially after all that build up and flirting and that’s what we got. They could have been cute if the writers gave them a chance.
The one thing about Becky and Drew that makes me give it a pass (I don't ship it but I'm not outright disgusted by it) is that it's not uncommon for people to date their dead partner's sibling or another close family member after that person passes. Also they didn't start dating immediately after Adam died, but after some time and forming a friendship. I don't love their relationship, but I didn't care too much that it was happening either. I was more pissed about Clare and Drew being shafted before we got to see them get together.
Peter and Emma was my least favorite relationship
Damn I think you actually names the majority of my list. I do have to add Ashley/Jimmy, some love them together, but Jimmy deserved better.
I hated them together sm
And can we just put it out there? Johnny watched JT die he let his friend stab him to death and he ran. He ran like a coward.
No that's not what happened, his friend charged at JT with a knife which caught him off guard as he wasn't expecting his friend to do that, plus they were both drunk so he probably ran in a state of panic
did you want him to just stand there ☠️☠️☠️☠️ i do think he should’ve helped but he was like a kid😭 he probably ran in a state of panic like OP said
Johnny should've been put in jail for being an accessory to JT's murder.
😊
@@loudboy317 An accessory how??
worst degrassi relationships:
esme and miles, esme and zig, esme, zig, frankie, frankie and Jonah, Jonah and Becky, Eli and clare, Jack and Imogen
Forgot about Esme, what a mess 😅
So basically every relationship esme was in 😂
@@merryberry6576esme was a disaster omfg. Like she just made everything so difficult
I agree. Also Lola and Miles. Do you guys remember that 💀
nah i loved esme, she added spice to next class
Claire and Jake made me so uncomfortable. I had to skip through all of those scenes because it made me wanna barf. It reminds me a lot of the relationship between the foster siblings in The Fosters which also made me uncomfortable.
Marco and Dylan. Like really boring and honestly think Marco could have done better. I feel sad that Riley and Zane never really get brought up, because I feel they were the best m/m relationship on the show. Riley was not the best at the beginning, but Zane (who’s my favorite character on Degrassi) made him a great guy.
omggg yes i hated marco/dylan as well. hated how dylan cheated on him for fun and marco just forgave him
Zane deserved so muuuuch!!!!
It makes me so sad he didn’t get a good fun/healthy boyfriend
Cuz Riley got better with time but there was no growth due to homophobia still being part of Riley’s life
@@nysclips I haven’t even got past season 3 yet (I started the show around season 7/8 when I first watched it), but I don’t like him. Like he’s ok, but I think Marco should have gotten a better boo.
@@merryberry6576 I agree. I mean I get him at first (I’m not straight and I was a teen around that time), but I think it was sad he was so deep in it.
I hated them together in the later seasons bc of Dylan
worst couple imo was ashley and craig, ts was so toxic my god. like they brought the absolute worst out in each other.
True
I get what you mean about JT/Manny and I do agree with you, but I think that it worked in the show because I know growing up of seeing similar dynamics play out.
I have seen people be in a friend group, be pretty tight, one gets a make-over/glow-up and then someone in their friend group ends up and a friend either confesses of past feelings or feelings end up happening (hormones) or they were just drinking and ended up hooking up and then they date and it's awkward af.
Then there are times where that does turn out to be a good thing and they end up married or whatever, but I know from my own experiences it was more awkward than anything mainly due to it being one sided with physically/emotionally (like a person really wants the sex but not really the baggage that comes with a relationship.)
I love Holly J and Sav
I like Miles and Lola
100% Agree about Manny and Jimmy
I wish they let Clare and Drew keep the brother/sister relationship I felt like they had? Idk I liked their friendship more than their relationship
I didn’t really like Jimmy and hazelnut just felt like o let’s put the only black popular characters together
agreed. and hazelnut?!?! LMAO
@@nysclips omg that was auto correct 😭😭😭😭 i swear lmao it’s funny imma leave it
Drew and Becky: they trauma bonded that’s it lol no spark notttaa
Clare & Jake: they wanted Fiona and Declan to be a romantic relationship but it was too weird for digrassi
Jenna and JC: I remember for some reason I had a crush on JC but Jenna deserved better
Ali and Jonny: eww okay
Drew and Zoe: man’s is pretty much an adult but he mentally stays 15 and Zoe was annoying but she deserved a guy or girl who really loved her
JT and Manny: JT and what’s her face and endgame
Eli and Emagen: she’s too self aware for him
Manny and spinner: odd ew
Sav and Holly J: they were freaking bored and made the uniforms happen so 🍅🍅🍅
CRAIG AND ANYONE WAS A HOT MESS 😂😂
Drew and Becky - THROWING UP
Imogen and Eli - GROSS
If you do a part 2 it should include Toby and Liberty, Becky and Jonah, and I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting.
i was gonna include toby and liberty but it was kind of a one-episode thing so i decided to leave it out but was definitely disgusting when he kissed her after JT died like sir wtf do you think you're doing😂
@@nysclips facts! It was just so cringy.
Also all teacher and student relationships, specially the ones painted too bright a light
Looking at you Ms. Oh 👀
I though Jonah and Becky were kind of cute because they were one of those couples you wouldn’t expect.
@@nysclips toby and liberty are step siblings
Omg yes! Thank you thank you THANK YOU! You have no idea how frustrating it is to hear all your friends say “aww omg! Drew and Becky are so cute together” every time I hear that i cringe, pull my hair and say “HOW!?!?!?!”
Here's my thing for Drew and Becky, in real life you can't help who you fall for. I don't think that Becky should have been off limits after his brother died because what are they supposed to do? And step siblings are not siblings. Especially when they have only lived together for a little while. I wouldn't even consider them related so the Clare and Jake relationship did not bother me one bit
Everyone in this list is a total screwup! None of them are perfect couples.
They’re only devils who are trapped in the consequences of sins and the writers who make them turn against each other!
When’s the nightmares ever gonna end and that there’ll be TRUE love!? PERFECT LOVE!
Can we talk about Emma dating Jay and Peter? Just ewwww, esp since Peter took nude photos of manny when she was drunk?
I'm finally watching Degrassi after years of people praising it's name - and of course obsessing over scene compilations on TH-cam (it's just as good as I thought it was, by the way)! I haven't made it pass season six, but yes, Craig and Ellie was bull-ish (excuse my language). The couple I dislike the most so far, though, is Daryl and Marco.
Daryl cheated, then had the nerve to come back (most likely after he got lonely when he realized his f**k buddies weren't interested in being friends), and tell Marco that everyone Marco would date after him would really be all about him, Daryl! What?! It was giving me some type of emotional, mental, manipulative abuse vibes (whatever it's called). So far he's been neglectful, and has failed to mention that he was planning on moving to Switzerland. Then to see Paige pulling the same emotional roller-coaster nonsense with Alex, I'm like, 'This bull-ish runs in the family!'. Makes me wonder who's the troublemaker amongst the parents, mommy or poppy.
I’m pretty sure you meant Dylan, I was racking my brain trying to find this Daryl dude 😂
@@merryberry6576 Agreed. I can’t remember a Daryl either
Marco and Dylan were already on shaky to begin with given that he was in college and Marco was still in grade 10
Yeah, the Degrassi writers *LOVED* to make us suffer through horrible ships for *LITERALLY* no reason 🤢😭
Considering that Derek and Casey from Life With Derek (another Canadian kid/teen show) are still shipped today, Jake and Claire being a thing sadly doesn’t surprised me
i liked paige and spinner the first time round when they randomly hooked up in season 6, its like why??
I always thought it was weird that they tried to put Claire with every "hot" guy on the show. that just wasn't her character
right like in real life eli and drew would never date her lol
I def couldn't stand Emma & Peter like uGH it just didn't make any sense. Another one I didn't like was Spinner & Darcy.
it did make sense, emma was struggling and i guess she thought that would draw the whole ed attention away from her.
Omg hey ❤
I HATED Claire and Jake but to play devil's advocate: they were dating before they knew their parents were. It is pretty fuckin weird they stayed together after the wedding but feelings don't just go away because of an odd life change
You need a follow-up video illustrating the best and worst parents in the show
Esme and Zig, HATED IT🫤
As a person who litterally grew up with the kids on the next generation. Cause im like 35. Only couple I truly liked threw eveything waa Clare and Eli. Which says alot that they were the only couple who seemed real. The next generation kids were everywhere. Now if we wanna go futhur back ill talk about some Degrassi junior high and high. That was my fav Degrassi
I hated Adam and Fiona so much. I don't know why. I don't have words for it.
Also I'm genuinely convinced they didn't know what to do with Drews character so they just made him date everyone he interacted with.
Or he's just that stereotypical classmate who dated several people
I agree with you on Sav & Holly J. I think they are better as friends and there really wasn’t any chemistry with them. They totally remind me of Dan & Blair from Gossip Girl
There’s a couple I hate so much: Spinner and Emma, like WTF?
Right? They barely had any scenes together
I always saw Drecky as a trauma bonding couple. Also, I thought Adam was trying g to get to Imogen and was going to break up with Becky…. I’m not a fan of them, but I understood why they found comfort in one another.
honestly...i know everyone loves clare and eli, but i was rooting for clare and drew. they were cute
Keep making Degrassi vids! Im here for it😁
I hated Emma and Damien they were just so uninteresting
I thought I was the only one who didn’t like Sav and Holly.J .
It just felt too random
Craig and Manny was a couple I hated they just brought out the worst in each other and it also started from cheating so that’s always a big no. By the time they weren’t toxic I just couldn’t care for their relationship
Glad Manny ended up with Jay, they are my OTP
Agree with all of these expect Spinner and Paige I liked them together. Though Palex is my favorite ship for Paige and Spane for Spinner (before she cheated on him)
Time to be unpopular and say my one of my favorite ships was actually Allie and Johnny and before y’all come for me in the comments, no, I do not condone him and the revenge porn at all, that was terrible and disgusting and deserves hate for that. But some parts of their relationship I thought were kinda cute; also it was the first bad boy, good girl trope before we had Claire and Eli and a lot of people forget that because it didn’t last long. Ijs
Also, Sav and Holly J were cute, fight with a wall 😝😝
I couldn't stand Kacy or Jenna.... Kacy was a bad character and a bad father.
KC*
You are so right about Audra though. And the vid is great; fantastic job, friendo
I have a hard time believing that Johnny wasn't a virgin before Alli. Just look at him.
Lol he wasn’t, when they broke up he told her to get tested💀
Marco and Dylan, purely bc I hate Dylan. They were cute in the beginning then it all went downhill
Omg wake up! The queen Has posted!🙄
no because eli with imogen was AWFUL. She was so toxic and every time he would have an emotion she didn't like, she would bring up his bipolar disorder? Which always bugs me about the seasons with Eli because no one really sticks up for him in those moments?? EVERYONE would blame his bipolar disorder and tell him to take his meds when he was justifiably upset.
you're my favourite degrassi channel fr
omg thank youuu!
Hmm degrassi was lowkey promoting incest I forgave them with Claire because they were only steak siblings but shit was still weird asf. Then they had Declan and Fiona kiss and it absolutely made no sense
Fiona did that because she was always attached with declan and when he got with holly j she didn't like being separated because the attachment and acted out in a shocking way to get attention
Degrassi was so chaotic I love it 😭
Am I the only one who couldn't stand Damian with anyone?? He really was for the streets LOL Went through the whole friend group!
Also Jane and Declan cuz....WHAT?! They had no chemistry IMO
Jimmy and Manny definitely could’ve work❗️😭😭
I don’t see how Jimmy and Manny could’ve worked personally. Manny likes the more artsy bad boy types. Jimmy is like the popular athlete. I don’t think he would have been her type.
@@Xplreli but look at Jay. She wasn’t into him at all, it took some respect to show for her to know her value and what guy she needed
Yay my comment made it into a TH-cam video! I agree with your opinions in this video. Jt liked Manny more than she liked him. They were better as friends. Also Manny and Spinner made no sense to me lol.
Also I don’t understand what alli saw in Johnny. Like you said he treated her like shit. I can probably count on hand the amount of times he was actually nice to her.
I really didn't like Sean and Emma. She wanted to do what she wants and not want he wants. When they broke up she went on a rampage to make his life miserable.
i didn't really like them either. i prefer him with ellie.
@@nysclips and what's crazy is that he really didn't do anything bad to her. He got frustrated with her B.S and she once tried to get him and his friends arrested for stealing school equipment. Technically they were but still it was a bit much.
They are overrated that’s for sure
Never got the hype around them
@@cheshirerose2001 Because he was the stereotypical bad boy and she was the stereotypical good girl that would keep him in line and keep him from doing too much
@@thedarkprince1987 as she should try to get them arrested wtf????😭😭 what sean and his friends did was WRONG, she had every right to feel that way. and she’s not obligated to do what he wants all the time, i do think she was self centered at times, but i think the way you worded it makes it sound like a stupid reason to hate her.
lola and miles was frustrating, lola kept acting like shay being happy with tiny caused her the same level of pain miles had from tristan being in a coma
You hit the nail on the coffin! Clare and Drew together were 🤮 as well!
the thing w clare & jake is soo gross & reminds me a lot of the show “life w derek,” where the main characters derek & casey have a weird sexual tension between them throughout the whole show… idk what’s up w canadian teen sitcoms & that borderline incesty vibe but its p sus...
(oddly enough life w derek featured a lot of the same actors that went on to degrassi, Adam was the little sister, fionas mom was the mom in life w derek also, as well as miles’s dad being the stepdad in life w derek!!)
You forgot about Sav and Ms.O, that was gross
Exactly
Jake and Claire were already a couple before the parents got married, I don't see that as gross I know they became step-siblings but that doesn't mean the feelings just go away it's not like they were revealed to be blood-related siblings. I mean should they have stopped after the marriage yeah for sure, but I can understand why they couldn't.
Same, I didn’t find it as gross cause they were together before they knew their parents were
I really liked them together
Jake was a peaceful and fun influence on Claire
It sucks that it was never gonna work out but I’m glad it happened
@@merryberry6576 I think I would have liked their relationship better if it didn't feel so rushed to me...than again, it could be argued that a good amount of Degrassi couples were rushed to some degree 😂😂
That’s very true, but Jake and Claire wouldn’t meant to be. Plus, I feel like Season 9 Claire would’ve probably dated Jake
Manny dumped JT for being immature and went on to date Spinner. Spinner was not much better than JT in that department.
You should do the best/worst parents of degrassi video
Emma & Peter tho
Omg yess Johnny and alli!! Everyone ships them. I hate them!!
Ashley in any relationship hated that girl she always made everything about her.
I agree with most of them besides Spinner and Paige and Craig and Ellie I love both of those ships
Well now I need a rating of the Degrassi parents because I only thought Audra was a good mom when Drew got with Zoe and when she decided to start helping Bianca instead of berate her. Those are the only two times I liked her.
Also, did you or do you have a video of relationships/friendships you would have liked to see or see grow in Degrassi? If not, I’d wanna hear your thoughts on that one too.
Miles and Tristan were the worst and it came out of nowhere
I'm Surprised Emma and Spinner are not on this list
The fact i liked jonny and ali tells me alot about where i went wrong in life.
Spinner and Emma - the worst.
Drew blame Becky for his brother death 💔😩 then a couple of months later they started dating 🤦🏽♀️ like bro wtf 🤬
SAV AND HOLLY J ARE AMAZING
The people of Degrassi didn't care about friends not dating exs
Unpopular opinion: I actually liked Miles and Lola🫣 and I wish they got more time together; I feel like their relationship ended so suddenly and I don’t think they barely even talked after that (idk if I’m right about that last part cause I haven’t watched next class in years)
Craig and elli
emma and spinner. Made no sense and they only talked to each other like 3 times
Drew and Becky bothered me so much!! I absolutely hated the fact that Drew and Becky got together after Adam DIED.
