omg i forgot to include the scene where she says to manny "at least i'm not getting pregnant" 😒
I thought that was funny
@@ashleyburchettajleefanlove4683 I thought I was selfish and rude
I meannnnn manny was fast in the ass.
@@AshleyWilliams-zs1sp it was still unkind
Well Manny was rude to Emma a few times
Manny gets sexually harassed and Emma says she hates her and goes on to date her harasser 😒
Poor thing has divorced parent. I mean who wouldn’t want to date someone who distributed CP- twice
Who sexually harassed? I don’t remember
I mean from her perspective her friends been messing with her crush, but hasn’t said anything. It just got out and she feels like she’s been betrayed she didn’t know what really happened.
@@mnlyt2942Emma has known Manny their entire lives. She should know Manny better than that.
@@strawberryherpes528 you could look at it that way. Looking at it another way she would think she knows her which is why it was probably hard for her to understand why she would do what she did
The fact that she was gonna kiss someone KNOWING she had the CLAP 😭😭
I thought it was gonnorea
@@mandananely6860The Clap is a nickname for gonorrhea.
@@typicaldemoness6x111 I thought the clap was chlamydia😭
@@theepiscesprincess lol! I remember 20 years ago the health teacher gave us a sheet of a bunch of different terms for std’s. It’s almost as funny as the nicknames for illegal substances. Lmao
LMAO
The fact that she considered the idea of Chris going out with Liberty embarrassing...
Like did she forget that she wasn't exactly miss beauty pageant herself? Especially not in her earlier seasons.
yes and Emma didn’t even want to get back together with Chris. She was leading him on so he wouldn’t date Liberty. She was just worried about what people would think of her if he got together with Liberty. But I love how Manny called Emma out on that
Yea for real
@@azzz7279 Manny was a real one.
@@elizabethchint6485she deserved better
Tbh Manny would've been a better main character. Emma was just a terrible character all around, the only good thing about her through the series was her glow-up.
Still not as bad as Trashley
Well Manny wasn't much of a Saint either
Yasss she her glow up ❤
manny would always date men who were taken like calm down
@@rqktsushi7526 Did I say she was perfect? I said she would've made a better main character.
Never got how Manny or anyone put up with her. I swear she got worse with each season
She was such a hypocrite and was always sticking her nose where it didn’t belong
fr
they were all the same to be honest. Manny had her share of bad streaks.
This puts things out of a lot of context. They were all terrible people. Teenagers are terrible. Emma was a judgmental prude.
But “Ur JuSt JeAlOuS” hoe bag Manny wasn’t any better.
I get it’s cool now to glorify people like Manny - to the point they straight up copied her in euphoria, but she was no less obnoxious. But had her good moments. But a lot of bad too.
The video itself kind of has an obvious bias towards Manny, but you could just as easily make a 5 minute video of Manny being the worst person ever towards Emma and many others, or Paige, Craig, or Spinner being the worst character ever, among others.
Again, they were all terrible.
Emma was so annoying and unattractive still is lol and she looks like an anorexic barbie doll now lol
they always made the main characters unlikeable after each season
Emma was a bad friend to Manny. Idc 😭
Nah fr, that peter arc pissed me off😒
Yeah, she thought she was better than her
The bad friend thing was mutual.
@@tiamod How so? Oh… wait… like that time she left Emma at the club to go have sex with Craig. Lol Hmmm… what else?
@@MamiTT237 idk it’s been over a decade but Manny certainly had a habit of making terrible decisions.
Emma hanging out with the blonde girl at Peter's party when she was hating on her earlier that day when her and Manny were at the pool lmaoo
she's so fake lmao
Yup, I've always said she was a whack "friend" for this
It wasn’t the same day though
@@oooh19She’s still fake 😭
You missed the part where Manny is telling her “you’re better than this” after she hooked up with Jay and Emma tells her “well I’m not getting pregnant” throwing mannys pregnancy and ab*ration in her face
As someone watching the show for the first time and am currently on season four, my impression on their “friendship” so far is that Emma is extremely awful to Manny. While Manny isn’t exactly always the nicest friend, most of the time she is constantly supporting or uplifting Emma and genuinely puts in work to make amends.
Meanwhile, Emma takes her for granted and throws extremely low blows at Manny and always victim blames her whenever Manny is confining in her. I really felt that Manny should’ve just cut Emma off for good at some points.
iconic
Unbelievable that Emma takes this attitude, considering her own (supportive, loving, sacrificing) mother was a pregnant teen...
Ouch 😮
The way Emma was so anti abortion when manny said she wanted to abort the baby and was giving valid reasons( mainly that she wasn’t ready) and Emma was like,”your killing that kid! How could you?” Like girl your friend is struggling and you’re judging?!
I think Emma Nelson is the perfect example of the "young nice mean girl" its definitely a character flaw but I know a lot of girls like her who posses these righteous indignation with everything they do but are actually really shallow...
“I asked him and he said he didn’t” like… what??
her tripping rick was kind of a slay tbh
yes 🤭
LMAO yeah i chuckled on that part
I’m saying
Honestly tho lmao
no it wasn’t cuz she did it to fit in, not just to b mean to him🙄
The actress is very good if she can play such an insufferable character
I always hated how she inserted herself into other people's drama even if it didn't involve her in the slightest.
exactly. and people say she was right for tripping Rick, but she didn't belong in that drama at all. if i were Paige i would've told her to stay tf in her place lol
@@nysclipsRick was a natural heat magnet. I think Emma wanted to become more popular and seized the opportunity
Also: Emma not standing up for Manny at Peter’s party when that other girl shaded her- and then having the nerve to later be seen WITH HER ARM AROUND THAT SAME GIRL- says everything you need to know about her.
Like… Holly Freakin’ J wasn’t even half as horrible to Anya as Emma was to Manny.
Omg i didn’t see that part
Exactly
I love characters like Emma. They’re problematic as hell but you can’t say they’re not entertaining lmao
she wasn't even entertaining to me
@@nysclips lmao, damn. I can’t even say anything because I feel that way about Ashley 💀
Not everyone is filling a void with toxic entertainment
@@simpleplanfan011lol Ashley was most annoying character and possibly the most hated character of Degrassi. Not the biggest fan of Emma but she’s def not in the list of my hated characters like Trashley
@@nicoleavery7238 It’s not that serious, armchair psychologist.
Now I know why manny was your only friend. Oh my gosh that was the best burn/line
God she was only SLIGHTLY more tolerable than Ashley. She was such a shit friend and switched up whenever the opportunity presented itself
Literally the only reason that Emma is more tolerable is because Emma is annoying but entertaining while Ashley is annoying and boring 💀
Even though Emma annoyed me her mom was one of my favorites
Mine, too. Her mom's amazing. :)
@@reeses_unicorn Spike was definitely one of my favorite parents in the show
Yeah, Spike was awesome! Sucks that her daughter was so insufferable.
Spike & Emma lowkey give me Lorelai and Rory vibes, and Snake is the Luke to spike’s Lorelai
@@azzz7279 if Wheels’ actor was still alive, I think it’d be much more interesting if Wheels was Emma’s stepfather. But Spike liked Snake even back in the day so ig her being with him is only right
This whole compilation is one of many reasons why Emma Nelson deserved way more hate than Ashley Kerwin. 🙄
Never liked Emma. She was low key jealous of Manny and was just an all around terrible friend.
Ashley was horrible. Especially to Terri. Think about all the years Emma and Manny spent together. Ashley did all of her dirt in literally 3 seasons. Emma doesn’t take away from Hurricane Ashley. They were both horrible, judgemental people and even worse friends.
@@hesayshesayhowboutmesay You have a point. Wasn't trying to take away from the nasty things Ashley did I'm her preppy phase, just saying that a lot of Emma's flaws get overlooked (in part due to her glow-up) whereas Ashley is given full-blown hate from start to finish.
IMO Emma was worse than Ashley because at least Ashley would apologize in some scenes. Plus I did like that one episode where she did “don’t you think you’re just a bit ignorant?” When they were mocking that Muslim girl as well of how concerned she was for Toby when he had is ED
Don’t get me wrong she did do some crappy things and I get why people don’t like her but
IMO Emma was worse especially with how she dated the guy who spread revenge p*rn on her friend and blamed it on her and how selfish she was being when Snake was falsely accused
@@CeCeIsAnArtist I think we’re definitely on the same page.
Emma deserves all the slander but she’ll always be one of my favorites 😭
Whyyy😭
@@alyssiak8042 it’s more of a “love to hate” favorite.
Same!!😂
That says a lot about you
@@nicoleavery7238 girl that doesn’t say anything about a person 😭💀
She probably got that attitude from Shane side of the family
😭😭😭😭
No, the Mom
@@lovelyswimmer1 how do you figure that?
@@jonathanmiller9235 because both are very outspoken. However, Emma is the more meddlesome of the two.
@@lovelyswimmer1 I'll credit Spike for the outspokenness, but the self-destruction is Shane.
Emma's mom, Spike, was one of my favorite characters in the original Degrassi from the 80s-90s. Very sweet and authentic. I was so surprised that the writers made Emma so opposite .
For reals
Punks are some of the nicest people I've met while environmentalist hippies like Emma have always been so hateful and spiteful
It just dawned on me after all these years--Emma complained about Manny being with Paige so bad she almost ruined the cheer squad. Fast forward a few years and now Emma is blowing off her friends for Paige--Oh the ironnnny
That's what bullies do. If they can't be happy and do well, they can't stand to see you be happy or do well either.
"What are they going to think of me if Chris goes out with Liberty next?" They're not going to think anything.
They’re going to think he upgraded 😂
What did she mean by that😂😂
@@chibichan9586 I guess she thinks Liberty is worse than her. I don't know.
2:52 yet she fails to acknowledge how she's the type to dates boys who take advantage of drunk girls 🙄
Realistically, they ALL sucked. You can’t name me a single character who wasn’t unlikeable and foolish for the sake of a plot line at one point or another.
Aw, I thought Terri was a good one. She just never woke up from her coma
Teenagers.
@@juvinaortega Terri woke up from her coma and transferred to a different school.
Cough* anya
@@bluecomet1109*cough Anya lied about a pregnancy and a miscarriage she was also a coke head
"Why does she still hate me so much?" Bro! You committed a major felony that could have destroyed her life and her future, and you only got detention out of it. Accepting her hatred for you is the least you could do.
She doesn't have to hate !!! She could choose to not like what he did. Yet still show him love. If love is a choice so is hate !!!!
@@PrincesseKittyKatIf you were exploited like that by a literal stranger who did it because you didn’t want to be blackmailed by them…it’s shocking how much Peter had changed but he definitely belonged in prison a long time ago
She's the essential whiney white girl of the early 2000's. She's can't whine about herself? It's fine. Pick a cause, any cause. She doesn't really have to care about it, as long as she can protest about it for a second. One of the most self-involved characters on Degrassi. To be fair, they gave Emma alot of basic teen drama and had to make it seem bigger than it was bc any real problems went to any other character but her (except her ed). But I feel like Degrassi has a problem with "main characters". Each era of Degrassi had a character they wanted to center the show around, but then they become whiney, crazy, and pretty hard to like. Clare is another example of this. Though, Emma had it the worst, especially when they would have her do something out of character just to add drama to someone elses storyline. But the actress who played Emma was able to make a stall piece of knockoff dollar store wonder bread taste more like a ready to eat pastry dish.
I wish they would have done more with her story line about her bio dad. Its like one of the real interesting story lines with her and they dropped it forever, the only time it was referenced again is when she picked up knitting like her dad did.
Chill with the casual racism
@@user-qv6fg1zr6y and you should stop calling everything out as racist. The character kinda sucked (bad writing) but the actress did a great job of making her lovable. That's all I said about her.
@@AndrewKolotyliuk when did I call everything racist
@@AndrewKolotyliukthe character didn’t suck. The writing was good. She pulled amazing performances
2:17 THE LINE DELIVERYYYYY 😭😭😭 that’s why I’m like this
2:09 2:48 4:34 these might be the incidents we can let go just because of the circumstances surrounding it. They were symptoms of the ED. I’m not gonna say it was necessarily out of character but it was def nastier than usual.
Spot on! I was about to comment about this!
Her telling Peter, manny, and Mr. Simpson about themselves was actual factuals 🤣 can’t hate her that bad
She was one of the worst friends ever.
Paige: Manny sweetie you are so gonna be the star of the show after me of course
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
i loved emma, she was so extra, so vegetarian, and so not a good friend
so vegetarian 😭😭😭
@@candylove-if7sxI died 😂😂
I remember one day I was vibing with someone who used to watch Degrassi High. When I told her Snake became principal and Spike's baby is kinda a nightmare she died laughing
Wheww the way that Emma had talked to Spike like that, my hispanic mom would not tolerate that at all lmao Emma def wouldn’t ever again either! 😂😂
Yup. If Emma switched parents with Manny for a day, she wouldn’t get out of the Santos apartment alive. Oof.
Being afraid of your parents is not good either her parents were awful too
Or the Bhandaris she would've been preparing for her funeral 😂😂😅
when she was talking down on cheerleading and manny wanted to join and got mad because she wanted to cheer .
Manny is always good friend to Emma. Manny deserves better
Manny had so many personality changes !!! Her beauty remind me of Mariah Carey.. lol
Now it makes sense why she and Peter ended up together in the first place. She’s like Paige, but worse. At least Paige had a bit of heart.
Damian wasn’t lying!! Emma could be something else at times !! 💯💯
Emma definitely was her meanest 10 grade and 11 grade and a little at the end of 9th.
I wish I could redo high school 😭😭😭
People remember Paige for her sass, *but Emma was ACTUALLY the ruthless one!* She always gave me a good laugh 😂🤣🤷🏾♂️
Emma dated Peter and lied to Manny for months has made the situation 10x worse
Realizing that the character most frequently centered as the protagonist/viewer POV is actually the antagonist of the series 💀. And not entirely sure that last part was intentional.
Spike is so lovely, and Emma's so..not. Guess Emma got all Shane's toxic traits.
She walked so ginny could run, and my god do I hate it.
Ginny from that show Ginny and Georgia?
@@cheshirerose2001 yep.
Emma is more of a mix of Rory Gilmore & Betty Cooper. Plus Spike & Emma give me Lorelai & Rory vibes in a way
Emma walked so Clare Edwards & Maya Matlin could run for real
there's literally no similarities to those characters aside from being whiny
I remember defending Emma against a couple of edgelords in another comment section, blaming her regarding Rick’s actions after weeks of being pushed to the limit due to bullying and the principal’s lack of regard towards. What I find even more disgusting was the fact of them being pissed at Emma for simply, but harshly giving Rick a reality check that she had no romantic interest in him and only pitied him.
Here’s the thing; do I like Emma as a character? No. Is Emma the blame for Rick reaching his breaking point and bringing a gun to school? Definitely not. Did Emma play a part in him getting bullied by the entire student body? Yeah, but at least realized how far and intense the situation got and put an end to it. Just because she stood up for him and was cordial towards him, does NOT mean she owed him any type of loyalty or relationship.
Yeah, I felt horrible for him how she told him that. I understand she didn’t want to date him but she didn’t have to say she only felt sorry for him.
here's the thing. I'd understand if everyone bullied him for no reason. He abused one of the nicest girls and put her in a coma. He should've been expelled or in juvie.
@@chaosspy6723 Rick should’ve never came back to Degrassi. If he was really THAT desperate for people to see that he changed, he should’ve relocated and transferred to another school.
@therealinuyasha yea, but that's really on his parents. like, who sends their child to a school where they are known for terrorizing one of the nicest girls? And who keeps their gun where their kid can get to it? wtf?
@@chaosspy6723 That’s also on Mr. Raditch as well because he willingly let Rick back in school, knowing full well that he was a danger to other students and did little to nothing when he complained to him about being bullied.
When I was younger, I loved Emma because of her activism. I also really liked Manny. As an adult, Manny is a way better person. Yeah, she does some really messed up stuff. But she is a far better friend than Emna. And a better costar when acting- Dracula, anyone? And yes, that's even with her dating Jay toward the end.
Cassie Steele (Manny) is a great actress especially the scene at the hospital with Miriam Mcdonald (Emma)
Emma fake crying then slinking across the bed counting the bracelets…she ate that tbh
"I asked him and he said he didn't do that!" pissed me off so bad lmao
Emma is a mean girl, who thinks she's sweet and above it all, because she occasionally fights for the planet's rights or whatever. At least characters like Paige and Holly J were honest about what they are. Emma is a TERRIBLE friend to Manny, constantly eroded at any self-esteem Sean had, and was generally doing really awful things to people who didn't deserve. (Except Rick). Like, this compilation didn't even include Emma ditching Manny at the 80's dance, how she threw Manny's abortion in her face, hung out with the girl who was making fun of Manny, all the judgemental crap she's ever said to Sean, etc. Meanwhile, Manny ALWAYS had Emma's best interests at heart. And Sean was obsessed with her.
i love emma, she's the literal perfect "character you love to hate" archetype. i loved watching her get worse too, its a pretty accurate depiction of what happens when the goody goody people pleaser who has all of her "greater good" actions completely backfire so their psyche breaks down along with their sense of identity. degrassi nailed so many complex character types, it was wild.
I’m so glad you included the “you look great!” Part cause on my recent rewatch I was like “ummm but you just said yesterday….”
The only thing she did right was trip Rick since he abused Terri
Yeah nah she started a schoolwide bullying campaign that got someone shot. (No, I'm not condoning Rick's abuse of Terri)
This is everything I didn’t know I needed tonight😂 Thank you
2:52 I mean she didn’t lie. 😭😭😭
People who talk bad about her forget spike had her at 14, she grew up with a mom still tryna figure out life, she was always the “Nice Mean girl with strong morals” She was really growing up and it shows
I’ve always liked Manny more than Emma anyways
Manny was so much different than Emma but they we're close friends.
slander her all you want but we wouldn’t have TNG without her or Spike, seriously I hate how very little recognition Spike/Amanda even gets for being the vehicle for TNG, had she not kept Emma there would be no TNG
Fr the series was planning on ending for good in school's out but due to Emma's existence they wanted to see her and her mom in the future that's why the Degrassi saga had a revival with TNG after 9 years of being dead
“ I don’t care” 💀
Manny couldn't say anything to Emma about the Jay dilemma because she was encouraging Craig to dump Ashley and continued going after him whenever she saw a small crack in their relationship but at the same time Emma's nose was all up in Manny's Craig dilemma and claims she's the better/bigger person yet goes on to do something similar to what her bestie did in s4
Honestly they're both bad and hypocrites but i think Emma is way more toxic for Manny than Manny being toxic for Emma
She literally was a pencil with an attitude and then she hit puberty, and that still didn't justify her attitude
you’re clearly a manny stan because she’s no saint either
2:20 did she just.... blame manny for her anorexia
I wouldn’t say so, she was still completely denying it only using it as a excuse of why she “couldn’t” eat
I liked the older Emma seasons 1-3. In season 4 she got annoying.
I grew to love Emma, honestly. Her character was a reminder to all of us that no one is born knowing to be a good friend. We’ll make mistakes and learn along the way. Neither Manny nor Emma we’re perfect friends to each other but, their growth was amazing to see.
I need to rewatch this show. There's so much that I forgot.
I love the later seasons more!! The ones with Becky, Zoey, Maya, Bianca, Jenna . Tristan and Miles.
I've forgotten so much too. I haven't watch an episode of Degrassi since 2016. It makes me feel young and I love the storylines.
I am so surprised that you added the clip where Sean really needed Emma's help and she said she doesn't care, not anymore. I didn't think you would add that in this video.
its her cheating on peter for shawn, then believe shawn to be a drug dealer despite peter being an asshole, then shawn needing her when he's scared and alone and she bascially says F u....then being kissy kissy with peter again...girl
I didn't even realize this, but she's the first one to start bullying Rick!
pls 2:53 is not a bad moment she flamed all of them
"you take advantage of drunk girls.. you are the drunk girl.." like 🤭🤭
Manny deserved a better bestie.
The first clip is the only one justified cause simpson had cancer.
Y’all can hate all y’all want. It’s easy to say “she’s terrible” or “jealous” (idk why y’all use jealous, always pitting characters against one another” but she was reality because her stories is what you’d see in the avenger girl. First hard crush over friends, not wanting to admit when you have a problem (and people suffering from anorexia do lash out at those closest to them) it’s not meant to be pretty, reasonings behind going with the bully and picking on someone. She’s still a favorite because it came out genuine. Half of these moments are out of if context.
Manny had her flaws and was far from perfect, but she had a good heart at the end of the day.
THANK YOUUU
She was actually one of my faves idk why 🤣
I agree that in some cases, Emma was incredibly rude and in the wrong, e.g. with Chris and Liberty, but a lot of these scenes are taken out of context. For example, she supported Manny after Peter distributed that photo, she fund raised for Sean so he could get a lawyer, she felt bad about how she treated Rick and later became his friend. I am not saying she was the best character but I think sometimes she gets too much slander.
Emma just felt sorry for Rick
Emma slandered manny when he released those photos of her
@@gabrielapineyro678 Yeah I understand and that's why I said she is still rude, but she gets too much slate. As if people like Manny or Paige were great friends.
2:43 OVER A MAN…….STAND UP
Season 4-6 Emma was a menace 😭😭
I love how almost everyone gets their karma on this show.
THANK YOU!!! I swear I just started watching this again and I’m like Emma is absolutely ducking horrible
2:04 the best because he was so spot on. How was manny ever friends with emma?
ONLY five minutes?
Problem is... Most of those scenes is a best friend's feud. She may not be the perfect and coolest protagonist ever, but she certainly wasn't the worst and not even the worst friend to Manny.
Plus everyone in here acting like Manny didn’t do some messed up stuff too 😂
@@tiamod Right???
@@tiamod You keep saying that but the point is that what Manny has done doesn't compare to the stuff Emma did to people nor her attitude.
@@chanise2218 Manny has 0 regard for anyone but herself and her catchphrase is literally “Ur JuSt JeALOuS”
Idk dating someone who took advantage of your childhood friend is pretty revolting and she’s the embodiment of white feminism but each their own.
With a friend like this you DON’T need enemies!
1:17 Manny wasn’t wrong…
Watching this in my late twenties. Literally all them were fake, the guy friends the girl friends lol 😂.
Claire is still worse
I don't hate Clare but her storylines don't excite me too much !!!
😂i mean her hair tho!!
You need to do an Ashley one next
Omg 😂😸 YES.
2:11 jfc, the DRAMA! Fr tho my girls Cassie and Miriam ate up all of these scenes where the two fought 😭
I've been trying to figure out if Emma is worse than Ashley or if Ashley is worse than Emma, I need a side by side comparison lmao.
why is her tripping rick in this?? he put a girl IN A COMA
That last clip. 😂
Everyone defending Manny which yes in this context I agree but she was also the fucking worst lol
Man I dunno why I thought Emma was decent but Emma was THE biggest Hater and terrible as a friend in the show.
i’m sorry Emma is my all time favorite, some of the slander is deserved however
poor Manny, Emma was such a crappy friend 😔
i thought manny was worse
