A couple corrections since I've gotten a lot of comments about them:
1. Yes, it turns out the triangle song (titled, no joke, Tra Le La Le La Triangle) is a real song by Patsy Cline! I'm a dummy who didn't even think to look it up before making the video 😭
2. I somehow forgot to include Mo Mashkour and Frankie and Hunter Hollingsworth in my character list. No idea how that happened, they must have just slipped by me.
3. Alexz Johnson's name is pronounced 'Alex' not 'Alexis.' Putting a Z at the end of Alex made my brain short circuit.
edit: 4. This isn't really something I'm correcting, but since I've gotten a lot of comments about it, the reason I didn't include Yael when talking about Jewish characters is that I don't recall them being Jewish ever being explicitly mentioned on the show (correct me if I'm wrong!) and I was talking specifically about explicit, canonically Jewish characters. There's nothing wrong with having a solely ethnically/casually Jewish character imo, but given the lack of meaningful Jewish rep on the show it would've been nice to have actual storylines concerning that!
My deepest apologies, I hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive my transgressions. And thank you for all of the love on this video! I never ever thought it would blow up to this degree. This is, to quote Manny Santos, cuckoo bananas.
(also, P.S., the drinking game for this video is to take a shot every time I call a child actor "very talented" in the music section)
This video was perfect! And I loved how you described Jenna and Becky's singing because it's so true 🤣
Could you do radio free Rosco next? Pleesr
Jahmil French “Dave” was my friend and he recently passed away. RIP 🕊
also, yael is jewish, and sav and alli are both muslim, which you forgot in the part where u were talking about non-christian characters! just a heads up (i can't hold it against you for forgetting the stories really feel so overwhelmingly white and christian)
@@MsCharlotteAnna yeah, as I said in a few other comments, I didn't include Yael because although they had a Jewish name and were played by a Jewish actress, I don't believe it was ever actually mentioned on the show (correct me if I'm wrong.) but you're right Alli and Sav slipped my mind
THE PANICKED TYPING "HOW TO NOT BE GAY" BY RILEY WILL ALWAYS BE ICONIC AS FUCK
Like if he typed faster, he'd get straight sooner.
@@daverindone655 Lmao
If you are going to do a “history of Degrassi” you need to start at Ida Makes a Movie then Kids of Degrassi Steeet then Jr High then High then your newb show
@@djdarq6311
Ummmm she literally did. She started by saying it started with Ida makes a movie, then went through all the different spinoffs. Did you even watch the video lol?
Honestly everything Riley does is hilarious in a cringey mid-2000s kind of way.
The fact that you didn’t have manny’s thong walk as her iconic clip is A CRIME 😭😭😭😭😭😭
A CRIME
RIGHT
They address teacher relationships when Snake being accused falsely
She left out a lot of characters too
literally the most iconic clip from degrassi
whenever you said “sorey” i expected you to play the clip of craig going “i’m sorey i’m sorey i’m sorry i’m sorey” (one of the absolute funniest clips from the show imo)
UGH I know I forgot to include that one 😭 one of my faves too
"DID YOU FLIP A SWITCH AND ERASE ME FROM YOUR MEMORIES?!?!?!?"
Clare's most iconic moment💀
Honestly I completely forgot about that scene until it was brought up in a video (I think it was one NotAVampyre did on that scene)

I dont think anyone, myself included, understands the actual chokehold the shark in the water promo had upon mind then and currently. That promo made me who I am today. The minute that promo started I officially began puberty. That promo raised me as though it were a single mother. That promo is the basis for my entire personality and the essence of my soul.
I just laughed so hard dude
@Mister Sir i think this comment is shit you should keep to yourself tbh. this comment was clearly a joke and any normal person would be able to tell from the first sentence. “yeah, you need to touch grass” no, i think YOU need to touch grass… why are you reading so much into a comment on a youtube video, and why are you taking it so seriously ? you must be very out of touch with reality. please get a life!
@Mister Sir their comment sounds like a joke imo, or they were just being hyperbolic to express their love for the show
yes
@Mister Sir calm down mister sir, don’t pull out the 9 😟
Let’s talk about how the actors actually look like there teens playing teens so refreshing especially growing up it made the show much more relatable
Because most of them *were* teens.
@@VicenteTorresAliasVits I know lol that’s why it’s great because usually the actors are way older
Literally
i also like that some characters like anya had braces
@@whitneywhit7323 well not everyone for certainly most of them. Like for example jay Hogart and Sean Cameron were older than there characters. Sean when he came back in season 6, he eas really 21 when he eas 18
there's something hilarious about Degrassi giving us 2 sets of rich twins
The first set will always be the best though! Declan was something else.
I think it might intentional. Degassi tends to do alot of parallel/analog characters that share similar traits and get similar storylines. Like Caitlin/Emma/Ellie/Clare, Rick Munro DJH/Sean/Zig, Manny/Alli, Joey/JT/Craig. Eli and Craig also share similarities. I'm pretty sure it's intentional

@@angelemeana2754 stop
that sayonara miles hollingsworth painting deserves to be in a museum. also, the phrase "homophobia will be defeated and love will triumph" is permanently entering my vocabulary as we speak
thought i would watch a few minutes until later but then i got to the "i have no mouth and i must scream" reference and i've now watched the whole video
gotta hook people with the literary references! also I watch your vids this is crazy, thank you so much for sharing!!
i made the mistake of reading that to my friends but i couldnt even joke about it😭 tbh same tho
Twas a great reference/joke 👌
“I don’t know anyone personally who watches the show” I FELT THIS. THANK GOD FOR THE INTERNET 😭
Same. I live in nigeria and when I binged the entire show in 2018 after seeing old clips of it with drake in it, no one I knew had watched it. It wasn't even shown in Nigeria when it was still on because queerness isnt allowed in children shows here. I didn't even know a show like andi mack existed. And when I eventually watched it, once again, no one I knew I had watched the show because it was banned
😭 I've found my people. After watching the entire new generation through next class, and having no one to share the experience with, this video was life giving 🙌🏾
Anytime I mention it to anyone, I get weird looks like it’s something people don’t talk about. Definitely makes me sad knowing people don’t have the same love for it. (Also, I didn’t watch it until I was ~20. I know my mom had episodes on our old DVR, but I don’t remember much about what I did watch when I was younger except it was after Jimmy became wheelchair bound.)
My partner and me actually binge watched the series together up until the last of the OG cast finished their run. He’s a few years older than me, so that’s the run he grew up with. I was going through high school when the season 10-ish cast was coming in, and retrospectively had more of a link to that era. (Though I fully respect both, and they both hold a special place in my heart.) With all that being said, the series as a whole is absolutely one of my comfort shows now. Which is absolutely absurd with how much chaos it is based around, lol.
SAME
No like fr 😭
You couldn't tell me Fiona and Declan weren't vampires
either Twilight style glampires or The McPoyles of Degrassi.
Honorary Cullens
The actor who played Declan, Landon Liboiron starred in The Howling Reborn, where he played a Werewolf. With Lindsay Shaw from Ned’s Declassified.
Although the Howling Reborn was very much made to cash in on Twilight.
There’s also an Episode in Season 9 where the character Clare writes vampire fiction living out her crush on Declan, and I’m sure that was also Twilight inspired on the part of the writers.
I am so torn on the Craig/Marco thing. On one hand, I was waiting for it!! On the other hand, I liked that it showed that a gay guy and a straight guy can be close affectionate friends without it turning into a romance which I think is a good message. It was just weird that they went as far as having them kiss for no reason.
Marco kissed Craig in a desperate way to show Dylan that he, Marco, was over him, prompting an iconic line from Craig: "So when in doubt, you kiss Craig?!"
it wasn't a consensual kiss tho it was very one sided and neither of them had feelings for each other
@@vinylrecord68 his facial expression during that scene was ridiculously hysterical
It wouldn't have worked Craig is messy and Marco became to needy.

Seeing Spinner described as a himbo is SO right and I’ve literally never put that together.
zig honestly counts as one too imo
@@loen1z so true
Spinner was the blueprint
Idk if it's how I interpret the idea of a himbo but I don't see it. The actor is handsome but I'm not sure if I would use himbo to describe him
@@loen1z I actually do kind of agree here
also the fact that “hey liberty girlfriend” was never brought up here… LORD
you were right about the degrassi franchise not dying; HBO Max announced they're releasing a degrassi reboot that will come out in 2023
I bet that’ll be interesting! I wonder if they’ll give it intense euphoria level drama or try to stick with the realness of degrassi
OMG rlly you just mad me cry Like Yassss
I hope they don’t ruin it to make it like euphoria or riverdale…those shows have their moments but won’t be organic to degrassi
wait that's amazing I'm so excited
No actually apperantly they canceled it :(
Me, who has never seen a single second of Degrassi, even in memes: I can’t believe we could have had the Craig/Marco ship and they took it from us!
“I THINK YOURE GREAT AND MY NAME IS BECKYYYYY” oh god this sent me
i’m still screaming hahahahahaha
😂😂😂 I can’t
I literally started crying laughing
☠☠☠☠
Early Becky baker haunts my nightmares
I need a whole ass interview with the actress who played Chantay Black, I need her take on playing the longest reoccurring background character in probably TV history.
RIGHT she was always there but not at the same time and only there when the show needed her like she should have graduated in earlier seasons right??
@@baygoesmoo That's kind of sad, lol. Like, it just comes off like they cared about the character so little that the writers just forgot to have her leave the show, and that's so hilarious to me
Oh my gosh I know, she was on that bitch for 8 seasons. Always liked her style n was glad she finally kind of got more air time as the years went by. But still not enough IMO
Y’all know what tho….chantay stayed booked 🤣🤣🤣
@@baygoesmoo wanna point this out:
Mid season 11, Chantay, Anya and Holly J stamp their hands on cement. Later, after prom, Sav looks at the floor like "aww" and the camera ignores Chantays hands (?(? Like she didnt do it. Lol. RUDE.
the captions said “sav singing, very nasally” 😭😭
I feel like this video has become fundamental Degrassi content for me. I rewatch it every so often like I do with the show 😂
I do too lol
whatever it takes, I know I will make it through; if I hold out, I know I will make it through. ahhhh the memories.
If I be the best...be the best I cannn
I love your channel omg
Season 4 and 5 version the best
:0) PURPLE PALACE!!!
Original is the best!!:)
The Shark in the Water promo was LEGENDARY when it came out. I spent DAYS trying to decipher all the storyline hints.
I’m pretty sure it was morbid curiosity sparked by the promo that got me to start watching the show hsjsjdjjd
It was a moment. I was 12 at the time (way too young to be watching degrassi) and I had just finished watching all of TNG and this was gonna be the first season that I watched during its airing. I was so hyped for the Claire storyline when I saw she came back with short hair.
I remember that, till this day season 10 is legendary and there was a massive shift there
Just hearing the song takes me back to reading fan theories at 3am like a fucking maniac. That promo CONSUMED ME
I obsessed.
I’m convinced this video made the reboot happen
this is also what I'm choosing to believe
My favorite piece of ridiculousness in this show is when the female characters scream out at their male interests that they are pregnant, without so much as taking an at home pregnancy test. Like my girl make sure before you add this extra chaos to your life
😂 in movie/tv shorthand, if you're a girl and you throw up it means you're pregnant! no need to double check!
You forgot to acknowledge KC’s relationship with his coach. That was a great portrayal of a a teacher taking their power dynamic and forcing him to break up with Claire, hook up with a hooker, drunk, and even wanting to watch him hook up with Jenna.
omg i rmbr that, that was so sick
That was so disturbing to me and I didn’t like that it was just kind of dealt with quickly I wanted to know more of what was going on there 😳
I don’t know how but I completely forgot about KC and all of his story lines. That one was horrible 😳
She forgot to mention alot! This whole show is filled with "omg!!" moments. Manny kissing Craig is just one of those moments.
Ooof that was one that was hard to watch. One thing I liked about it was the different angle it took to the teacher sexually abusing a student situation. Most of them were “student gets crush on teacher, tries to pursue it, gets shut down at first, but then the teacher gives in to their attraction”, which is of course a dangerous situation, but also one that’s really generic and easy to write.
The whole thing with KC’s coach was less cut-and-dry. It was all stuff that you know was uncomfortable and wrong without the coach directly trying to hook up with him. Like some combination of vicarious sexual gratification through watching KC do things and likely through the power he had over him, as well as seemingly grooming him to the point of accepting sexual advances. It’s possible that the coach really did just want to get his rocks off by watching (that’s definitely a kink), but I’d also believe he was trying to manipulate KC into eventually accepting sexual advances from him. Like he was testing the waters. “Okay, he’ll let me help him get laid. Let’s try pushing it further and see if he’ll watch porn, drink a beer, spend the night. Okay, he’ll do that, let’s make him afraid by showing him the gun. Now he’s scared, can I push him to have sex with a hot woman? If I can do that, can I get him to agree to a threesome? And after that having sex with me?”
I’m glad the coach was arrested and all, but I agree with others that I wish we’d looked at the details and aftermath a little more, instead of just the harrassment. Taking a closer look at the trauma KC experienced from the situation, mostly; while I think explaining what the coach was trying to do and what the red flags were would be good, too, I think the harrassment in itself was pretty clearly all a red flag.
Paige Michalchuk is the unfortunate reason that for a long time I called everyone “hon” lol
Same! Tho I spelled it hun
I watched degrassi live during shark in the water. Let me say it was a whole experience. No show at that time did this and honestly we looked forward to the promos more than the initial show lol
Look into the promos for Skins, I remember when watching the degrassi one I could recall how night and day they were. But skins (Uk) was definitely doing these type of promos early on.
Absolutrly

"He's Drake you know? 7/10?" You are so generous.
for some reason the fact you didn’t mention heather sinclair once hurt me cos let’s be real she was the main character of degrassi 🙌🏼
you're so right. notes app apology incoming
This comment is absolute fire 🔥 😂
Spoilers 😅
I love how she’s most referenced/iconic without showing her face
one of my favorite scenes is when eli is talking to clare about getting revenge on fitz and clare looks at him and goes "you know who says those kinds of things? terrorists" with genuine disgust and i actually started crying because it was so out of nowhere like why the fuck did she just call eli a terrorist
This made me laugh omfg
Claire was so dramatic. I remember when she had a breakdown because her foster-ish family was growing weed in their basement to pay to help out runaway teens. she was treating weed in Canada like they were selling meth 😭
@@wells346 degrassi had a weird approach towards weed in general. Lol considering it’s a Canadian show. I would expect that from an American show. But Canada???
@@TheSlipperyNUwUdle it's bc at a certain point the production was taken over by teennick which is US based so the stance had to change
@@TheSlipperyNUwUdle and it’s weird where their views seemed to be but yet they literally made a jay and silent bob movie!?
As a Canadian teen in the 2010’s the seasons they did the telenovela format were the absolute GOAT. Looking back a lot of those arcs were hot trash piles of filler content but oh boy did I love having a new Degrassi every day.
I’ve seen this video over 20 times at least. It’s my favorite, comfort TH-cam video. I love listening to it in the background whenever I’m relaxing at home or at work. Just wanted to say that. Me and my boyfriend are your biggest fans. Love you Jane!
Degrassi does really seem like one of those hazy nostalgic shows. Like the whole thing felt like a fever dream in my youth and now I could tell you every single character arc of the show like 15 years later.
also i laughed my ass off with these character intros
Literally. Seeing JT and Liberty triggered me again 😭
When I'm 80 I'll still be able to give detailed opinions about this lmao it's just ingrained into my brain forever now
i just want to rant about the fact that degrassi forgot about zig's parents like WHERE DOES HE LIVE? DID HE EVER MAKE PEACE WITH HIS PARENTS? idk why does that bug me so much lol
haha I agree! they just totally forgot about his home life in Next Class lol
same with imogen's dad.
I wish they would've explored his parents being struggling immigrants more
I think in Next Class they mentioned that he lived in a group home
@@baykennish1189 no, it’s was KC who lived in a group home.
I would give anything to go back to the first time i saw the Degrassi Boiling Point promo. The serotonin that promo gave me can never be matched.
Also rewatching it and seeing how genuinely great the actors of Eli, Alli, and Clare were was just wild.
What a great show 😭
red. 0)
😅😅
The music they choose for scenes are either SOOOO GOOOD or SOOO FUNNY
As someone who WAS THERE during the shark in the water promo, it was a life changing experience. i still remember sitting on my living room floor when it first aired, completely shocked & immediately obsessed 🤩
I was also there in real time and I still watch it on TH-cam on a monthly basis. Life changing!
same!!!! it was an iconic summer
YES, I was just typing this.
same i was in love with that promo!
Literally omg, such a legendary time to be alive
I think one thing that absolutely should be talked about is the fact that Degrassi is CANADIAN and didn’t feature a single indigenous character or storyline in its run (to my knowledge). Completely bonkers how they let that happen.
I completely agree! As I said in a different comment, they had a few indigenous actors over the course of the show, but they never made those characters canonically indigenous. I would hope that if there's ever another Degrassi show they would explore that!
American shows dont do it neither
YUP. as far as i know grace's actress was indigenous but grace was not.
@Renee absolutely
@@loen1z yes nikki is indigenous! she's also an an amazing musician and plays bass in a metal band called the vth circle
It's been like 10 years and I still got chills when you played the shark in the water promo.
also the natasha bedingfield episode had me in tears EVERY TIME as a kid.. i loved that episode sooooo much
I agree - Eli calling Clare a “whore” was one of the nastiest and most shocking moments for me. I understand at this point Eli was in rage over Clare cheating and believing she’s pregnant with Drew’s baby, but Eli as a character is very progressive and would never have referred to any girl as a whore, especially Clare. Later Eli says he wouldn’t have done that if he had known the baby was his, as if that even matters? He called her a whore for cheating with Drew after he cheated on Clare with Lenore because he “missed her so much”. Eli cheating was out of character for him anyway...I don’t know where they were going with that “whore” moment with Eli, but it made me disappointed in the writers and his character.
But they were also a dramatic couple..... Degrassi, it goes there! Ha ha ha
Did she even cheat? Didn't she break up with him before she slept with Drew? And yeah I agree, Eli would never call any girl, let alone his soul mate, a whore.
THIS like they both cheated?? love them both but whoever wrote this for their characters was probably dealing with something similar and projected it on the Clare and Eli because i would have never ever see this path for them.
@@xxthatsnotmexx
I mean, yeah, she "broke up" through the phone, but i think she could have waited for him to do it face to face... i mean, i get that he "didnt go when he told her" but he was at college but he was there for her when she had cancer...
It's definitely disappointing, but I took it as a #yesallmen moment :D
i was sooo traumatized by fiona kissing declan as a kid I swear I was so confused and appalled 😭😭
Edit: the shark in the water promo was life changing!!!!
Around the time that came out I was shipping the twins from Ouran. 😭😭😭 Ouran really convinced teenagers that that shit wasn’t SO weird. 🤡
I understand why that’s... not great now. Lol but back then I just didn’t. 🤷♀️
Spoiler; it was gonna lead to an incest storyline, but it got axed.
@@PlayfulFruitLPer thank god
@@kawaiipanda4013 What do you mean? That would have been 10x more crazy and interesting than any of Fiona's other storylines.
@@PlayfulFruitLPer that’s disgusting
I went to school with at least a couple of the kids from the first cohort of Degrassi Next Gen, so this show is extra weird for me to see now.
They were all pretty chill.
I have to say, I will always remember Jake Epstein, the actor who played Craig, as the Emcee from our h.s. production of Cabaret. His is my favourite rendition to this day.
Craig was my ultimate middle school crush 😭

Oh! My biggest "Ok, Degrassi" was the way they handled addiction. It was always hooked, destruction, recovery in the span of 3 episodes. As a recovered addict it was almost insulting. Like they didn't even research what certain drugs did. Despite going over opiates, meth, coke, alcohol and shrooms they still managed to make weed seem like the absolute worse
Like when Jake swallows a fuck ton of the original oxy op 80s and instead of, u know.... fucking dying... he just seems like he's drunk and pours a beer on his head haha
oh how little I knew back then
Peter doing meth and going straight for the oysters lol
In alot of aspects when it comes to storytelling the fact that the episodes are usually 20+ minutes can hurt the show. It would be much better if the episodes were an hour long cause then they would be able to flesh out the stories more
And also yeah they always seemed to villainize weed and wouldn't go for much more harder drugs that can actually be harmful. If they can cover shit like SA, bigotry and abuse I'm pretty sure they can handle much harder drugs then weed

my love for broken men started with Craig Manning.
same, queen 😔 solidarity lol
no seriously, half of my boyfriend have major Craig energy and I seriously blame either Degrassi or astrology
Oh Lord yes!!!
Same girl
You can always count on Craig to make the worst possible decision in any given situation. You can even play a game where you pause the episode and try to guess what Craig will do, and half the time it will be something even worse that you hadn't even imagined.
The "Shark in the Water" hype back in 2010 was unreal. I've been watching Degrassi since 2001 and the passion for the show began dying down around seasons 7-9. But the interest for Degrassi as it was basically revived in front of our own eyes made the music video a mascot in the community. I don't there's ever been a better marketing decision made by tv creators.
at the middle school i went to, they rounded up all the 6th graders and made us watch degrassi junior high every friday. it’s such a key memory of mine
Cam’s death left me SOBBING. Even to this day I’m so hurt over it smh.
I literally will never recover
That’s me but with Adam. I loved Adam so much 😭 his death just felt so outta left field, same with JT
@@foreversimgirl828 the way Drew crumbled when he got told that Adam didn’t make it had me ugly crying on the floor
@@Yemmers21 That's the only time I felt for Drew cause I know what it's like to lose a brother. Other than that I didn't care for his character at all.
@@Yemmers21for me it’s Toby collapsing in disbelief when the doctor told him JT didn’t make it and then the video tribute to Adam played at the Degrassi graduation ceremony that get me every time I see them.
Emma’s weed brownie storyline was literally when I stopped watching the show
they tried to give her a personality through weed 💀
It was her and jay for me
blaze LMAOO
I didn’t watch after season 7 until quarantine last year and I was surprised I enjoyed the newer classes but I could believe how they ruined manny Emma and liberty in season 8 lol. I liked the college years for Paige Marco and Ellie even though it was hard to watch sometimes. But they sucked the life out of all those characters in college in season 8
Same
Riley typing "how to not be gay" made me HOLLER 😭😭😭
Thank god you addressed Crarco because my pals thought I was INSANE for thinking there was something there. Also another missed opportunity was Degrassi's many attempts to have a bisexual male character. While yes, we did finally get Miles (bisexual king), they had planned and scrapped several bisexual guy storylines (Craig, Peter, Drew). It pains me to think about how cool those storylines could've been. Anyways amazing video.
I know this is a very odd place to say this but thank you for your Playlist names
I knew about Craig but I had no idea about Peter or Drew
Every time I meet a Canadian I say “I’m an honorary Canadian,” and, unprompted, they always reply, “Oh, you’re Minnesotan?”
I would worship the ground you walk on if you made a vid/series of your opinions on some of the major Degrassi relationships and their arcs because they were truly iconic/insane. Joey and Caitlyn, Sean and Emma, Eli and Clare, etcetc
oooo thanks for the suggestion! 👀
the way I sit my dumbass here and REFUSE to accept that Sean and Emma aren't a thing. they fit so well because they were so different and the whole Emma x spinner thing seemed so out of the blue for me imo
i loved eli and clare so so much 🥺
@@humblecrabd6981 ride or die Sean and Emma
THIS i would love
What’s wild to me is watching from a perspective without socialized medicine, and seeing how much having Canadian healthcare actually impacts the plot, seeing characters be able to realistically stay in hospital while stilll having support from school and the ability to stay in long term full time care is wild to me every time that happened
very true! if Terri or Tristan were American they'd be absolutely crushed by medical debt 😭
good yeah claire just being completely fine while in the hospital now that i’m chronically i’ll and much older is so wild to me
FUN FACT: I accidentally watched next class first, realised that there were characters from next generation and then went back and watched EVERYTHING (DJH, DH, DNG) and then rewatched next class and everything finally made sense. this all started during my freshman year of high school and now that Degrassi just got put on HBO Max, I started rewatching it again, and I just finished my freshman year of college. to say that I have very different thoughts from when I first started watching it to now rewatching for like the millionth time is an understatement.
Imagine my surprise when I got to college and found out I hung in the same circles as the guy who played Wesley (black hole kid lol). He used to DJ at local clubs 😂 the girl who played Liberty is now a pretty DJ herself, too!
halfway through - cam was a seriously amazing representation of depression, how mental health is isolating, and the escalation of it all. we see him start, sad, but in the kind of shy teenager way. he starts to make friends and get into relationships, but realistically he’s still depressed. he begins to (tw) self harm, with the milk, ice skate, and his “fall” from the balcony. and finally a little confrontation is what makes him feel as if he can’t live anymore. as someone who’s suffered with that; completely and utterly realistic to the point that it’s uncomfortable to watch. and they did it classily! they never described how he passed. they never showed it directly. wonderful writing and that actor was so damn good.
And they don’t even create a plot hole when they didn’t say how he passed, like one episode you hear maya say “they never told me how he passed”
@@sophiaa5092 the method is heavily implied. Eli is triggered by blood after seeing his body and Cam had accidentally cut himself with one of his skates not long before

the weed stuff is so cringey! my least favorite is actually spinner’s weed arc, where they present is as the only way he can get through class without puking from his chemo but the message is ultimately still “weed is bad mmmmmkay”
yes! I didn't think to cover Spinner in that section, but what a horrible, reductive way to look at medical cannabis. especially when it does help for a lot of people going through chemo
Yeah my uncle was the only one in the cancer ward gaining weight cause my family was sneaking weed in for him. Thats disappointing they portrayed it that way
@@jane-mulcahy yeah, a lot of media is still tainted by the "grr all drugs bad" mindset, completely ignoring all the benefits cannabis in particular has. like for me, weed is one of the only things that helps my anxiety and migraines. i use cbd when i'm feeling jittery and anxious and it fixes me riiight up :)
Yes, it's still a tv show aimed for kids and teens, I mean they can't go promoting weed as something cool to do
@@eliaseldeoleo80 All the things that they're promoting on the show and they should draw the line at weed?
I know I’m a 30yo that watched Degrassi: TNG almost two decades ago as it was coming out and never even thought about the pairing *and* I’m two years late to this video, but the Marco/Craig ship is revolutionary to me and I’m retroactively pissed it never happened.
One of my favorite facts about Degrassi The Next Gen is that (at least in the early seasons) each title was named after a popular 80s song.
Whisper hug get like a fever dream. I mean you’re telling me no one made fun of imogen for playing the damn water glasses?!?
Its Imogen i doubt she cared 😭
Or Moe with a baby xylophone on his keyboard at the battle of the bands!?
I wanted Terri and Spinner to be a thing SO BAD 8( I thought they'd be cute together, and he even tells her multiple times that he thinks she's pretty. And Terri is such a sweetheart, I wish she was on the show longer :(
YESSSSS!!!!!!
THIS!!!
Rick all the way
@@shadymccain9522 I-- EXCUSE ME?????
@@shadymccain9522 what?!??
Thank you for captioning! I'm always impressed when "smaller" channels care more about accessibility than the big ones. I'm a massive Degrassi fan and enjoyed reliving it all through this video!
So the insulin thing definitely happens - a frat guy at Texas A&M actually passed away because he was passed out and missed his meds
I think the point is that the show made it seem like that was the fault of weed, like, the message was "you shouldn't smoke weed because if you do, you may forget to take your insulin and have a medical emergency", which is a bad argument.
@@fgjhham89 I mean over consumption of anything is bad - the guy I’m taking about drank too much alcohol - I’ve never been so high I forgot my meds but I’m sure it’s possible - deff smart to practice moderation
“Not to be confused with muppets take Manhattan “ goodnight girl why did that make me laugh so hard
Like I always say, you could really see how Degrassi changed after J.T's death. It was a new era
it really did. i wrote a whole essay about this topic (and the other big mistakes i believe the show made)
@@islarcbcan i read it pls😭
All of the memes peppered into this video is iconic 10/10 made me laugh every time
I was maybe 11 or 12 when the “Shark in the Water,” promo came out, and I had NO business watching Degrassi at that age but I had an older sister who loved the show, and it always gave me life every time it played. I only ever watched Degrassi from Seasons 10-13, but those three seasons gave me life for the time I was there
I had an unbelievably huge crush on Eli as a kid in the early 2010s as a teen. Lol
Bro sammme. I honestly thought I’d go to high school and find an angst theatre kid with mysterious problems to fall in love with.
We all did.
The fact that Munro has no social media sucks a lot.
As did I. That started my thiNg for e-boys. Or was it Criss Angel??? 😂
He has twitter but twitter doesn't count.
Dude when JT died before being able to tell Liberty he wanted oatmeal and not jello I was devastated 😩. Still can’t believe they had the audacity to marry Emma with Spinner, like WHAT?!?! Also when you mentioned how much they prided the show for being diverse and ‘going there’ but not doing much for the storylines of characters that aren’t white, sis the validation I felt.
I think it was a meatball sub not jello but still devastated as well. He could have lived!!! 😞
@@audrey7656 he was the one who wanted them to kill him off
@@sienna6305 I heard the opposite . I think there was an interview with him where he said it wasn't his idea
Bro i can’t watch season 6 JT dying fucks me emotionally
I will never not be upset that Emma and Sean weren't endgame
Can we talk about how your demeanor gets more and more relaxed, and your words start coming out slower, as the champagne in your glass gets lower and lower??!?! 😂🤣😂 I frickin LOVE you, and totally want to watch the entire series on a bean bag chair in your room with you😬 Can we get baked while we watch the ‘Hello, my name is Blaze’ episodes??!!?? Seriously tho…. I think you’re my new BFF🤩😋🥰
I’m very late to this party, but this video makes me so happy. I watched Degrassi in real time from the beginning, excitedly waiting for the newest episode to air. I’m grateful that younger folks got to enjoy the show all these years later. I lived the 80s Degrassi, too. I went to a marathon screening of it in 2005 at the height of my love for Degrassi TNG. Great show.
Ellie's best romance was Sean. Craig and Ellie were terrible together, she couldn't be with Marco and Jessie just sucked.
You’re right and you should say it. 👍🏼
I mean, they were terrible together when Craig was at his worst sniffing coke and performing on stage while high out of his mind.
But generally speaking, they had a lot in common and liked the same things. You can tell the kind of bond they had just by Degrassi Goes Hollywood alone. They just never got the timing right.
Not only that, but in one of the season five minis, it’s pretty much explained why Ellie never got back with Sean as well (although they had a decent relationship IMO).
@@ellagoreyshorrorstories7524 actually when he was with Ellie he didn't really give two fucks about Emma especially when he started hanging out with Jay and he didn't really pay much attention to her except for the time she accused him of stealing school property. It was his financial situation and his past that got the best of him and he only became hung up on her when he came back in season 6 and Emma was dating Peter at the time yet he still managed to get her (all because I think sean going to jail and Peter getting a slap on the wrist also Emma trying to help Sean while he was in jail created a rift between her relationship with Peter).
I turn 31 tomorrow and I just spent an hour and a half watching this. When I watched this as a teen, I had no idea I still would still have no life by now.
Lmao same I’m 29 this year so please don’t feel alone
Eh, as long as you're working you're allowed time to watch bs also
Samesies...but I'm 34. Graduated high school in 2006 and continued to watch it through earning 2 bachelor's degrees back to back. Quarantine brought it all back to me. Loud and proud. No shame in my game. Thank God for fellow degrassi dorks because I too do not interact with anyone else who has watched this show in person. Also very random, but the way Spinner says "pasta sauce" when confronting Marco for dubbing Hazel KILLS me everytime. Would trade my NY accent for a Canadian one in a heartbeat
@@elle.dubszz I’m 36. The older I get, the more unapologetic or ashamed I am of the things I like from the “good old days”! Lol
31 and watching this while inhaling popcorn. Hell yes
You said the scene with miles and Tristan in season 14 had bad posture and I can’t get that out my fucking head, I keep watching it and dying Lmaoo
Dude OMG I came here to say this, I can’t get over Tristan’s shrimp 🦐 hump WITH the slow dramatic walk LOL
Oh my god the way I used to rewatch the Shark in the Water promo over and over, it had such an iron grip on me when I was a young teen and I really can’t put into words why. The song, the carnival setting, there was nothing like it, it was so iconic.
"Sayonara Miles Hollingsworth" is one of the lines me and my friends quote all the time. Its iconic😂
I actually thought Maya’s development was great. Her trauma follows her and I think it depicted PTSD and trauma realistically bc you never really get over it and saved those later seasons
I agree with that! it was one of the highlights of Next Class for sure.
Maya is one of the best characters in my opinion. She always does what is best for her friends.
You forgot my favorite weed plot line! When Eli & Jake get really high and Eli makes this rlly weird movie for his class it always makes me laugh
This is the most comforting youtube video that I have watched in a very long time, and I wholeheartedly stand by that. Also, very upset that Craig and Marco aren't together.
Probably for the best, Craig was always kind of a shitty boyfriend
@@bigbearkat2010I do wonder who would shit on Marco worse: Dylan or Craig! it’s a shame we won’t get to find out.
Omg the clip of Ashley singing the emo song is iconic
not me realising I still remember every single line of Clare and Eli's dramatic moments 💀 thank you for this video, you are an angel.
I remember watching the Emma and Spinner get married episode when it aired and thinking surely this would have an “it was all a dream” kind of end to the episode. Especially considering the level of explosion caused by the panini maker
I appreciate anyone who can compile this much of degrassi information lore and backstory into one cohesive video. Always get reminded of the kind of absurd, mainly meaning if you listed on paper, at times dramatic moments that can happen all in one season and at times issues often resolved themselves in one episode. Good work 👏 🙌 PARTY AT EMMAS HOUSE
but Sean and I had plans later…of a romantic nature. 😏
You've Got Kat has done some videos in a still ongoing retrospective on Degrassi that goes into a lot more detail then Jane did in this video (no slight to Jane) and while it's not finished it's great
what i hate about how they treated adam that isn’t talked about much is that he experienced violent transphobia (owen and fitz) and then tried to redeem those characters without really showing how they changed also didn’t face consequences for their actions with made me extremely upset
I was always bothered by Drew's relationship with Bianca because she bullied Adam before.
@@ricopyro9282 lowkey that's how some people do that. Like I'll have a problem with someone and a friend will be like well he hasn't done anything to me so I'm still cool with them..until something happens of course
@@ricopyro9282 Plus any girl Adam dated eventually ended up with Drew. A article that talks about Adam's death brought up that Adam was basically a bypass to any girl that would end up with Drew and they did it THREE times. I want to say that they didn't intend it and in a way I don't think they didn't but the fact that 3 girls Adam dated eventually dated Drew, as the article said "sends a painful message"
I resent the fact that your clip of Sav was him singing that fucking Anya song that haunted several seasons
Major kudos for trying to explain Jay and Silent Bob to Gen Z. Their stoner humor had a chokehold on us for a decade.
bruh the WORST time they fucked up a weed plot line was when they tried making spinner look like a deadbeat suddenly because he started smoking week to help with his pain and nausea from testicular cancer treatment.
I know!!! that one upsets me too. like even if you don't support recreational use for whatever reason, relieving pain must be one of the MOST valid uses for weed
no cause lemonade mouth songs slap harder than whisperhug😭
oh I agree!! I feel kinda bad for even comparing them
@@jane-mulcahy i’m still watching youre video while cleaning around the house😅 for me watching next class first and i started watching next generation acouple months ago i’m so glad you covered some things that i always laughed about 😭
Whisper hug was the worst Degrassi band
Yeah, when I hear that I was liked don't do Lemonade Mouth like that. Determinate is still a banger and you can't tell She's So Gone doesn't slap.
Ashley thought she was evanescence in her emo days
My friends and I are making themed Um, Actually power points (based off the game show if ur not familiar) And I feel like I need to cite u as a resource bc this video has been such a big help. There's so many like 10-15 second clips in this video that perfectly sum up what would have taken me waaay too much time on wiki and IMDB so seriously thank you so much!!!💙💕
The Shark in the Water promo had me in a choke hold. I adamant about never missing an episode.
not gonna lie i thought paige and alex’s relationship was one of the most missed opportunities. i thought there chemistry was really good and i was so sad when the last we saw them together it ended so messy☹️
SAME!!!! one of the best couples hands down
Agreed! Their relationship was a big deal for me as a viewer when I was 12ish and watching it live. I was figuring out my sexuality while living in a very homophobic and oppressive household (in an equally homophobic small town), and it - along with South of Nowhere, which was such a good show, way ahead of its time - was so refreshing to see them get together, despite Paige's insecurities and the way everyone around her treated her and Alex.
Plalex is a top 3 Degrassi couple. And Paige’s healthiest relationship
I'm going to disagree. I'm getting tired of the entertainment world acting like homosexuality is like changing shirts.🤔🤔🤔
What do I mean by that?
Paige, a girl who has only shown to be attracted to males, is all of a suddenly gets into a relationship with a female. Which by the way, after that relationship ends, Paige shows no signs of being attracted to any other women. Why do people forget that a good portion of us humans get into a relationship with someone because of how physically attractive we are to them.😏if you notice a lot of Hollywood writing from movies or TV shows, especially with women, always write women who have been in relationship with only men but get into a relationship with a woman because they "talk to each other" and have a little bit of a "common understanding" but don't show them actually being sexually physically attracted to each other.
That's why to this day Paige getting into a lesbian relationship made no sense in the first place🤨
BRUH RIGHT SUCH A MISSED OPPORTUNITIES i still ship them together i just wish it wasn't messy
Ah Degrassi. 4th grade me had no business watching this show. I never got around to finishing Next Class and I definitely don't think I will
I was there for the shark in the water promo and honestly, I miss those times. It was such a moment and a movement and I'm never going to forget how many times I would stop to watch the MV religiously.
Tbh, Craig and Marco made sense. When you think of how they basically scrambled around to make his relationships turn to shit and yet his relationship with Marco always gave you "what if" vibes because there was an undertone that it could be something. And tbh, I think it may have been great.
"With always, ashley" has the same energy as "sayonara, miles hollingsworth" and i never realized until now. Both of them fold me with laughter every time.
"Degrassi takes Manhattan makes me thirst for death." You, me, and my little sister. I loved Spinner, he was one of my favourite characters, him and Emma getting married was soooo stupid and bad.
The carnival/ Shark in the Water promo lives in my mind rent free even over a decade later. The song is immaculate and I adore carnival aesthetics. It was PERFECTION.
Shark in the water was a cultural reset.
@@Natalie_11188 Really and truly it was.
I wheezed with laughter every time the Sav "I autotuned it" clip was used
This video is such a comfort watch for me. I think ive seen this at least a dozen times since last year. Thanks Jane
