    Episode 1 was already dark! Emma almost being taken advantaged. For me the saddest episode was when Jimmy got shot. Why? I didn't really feel about it but when his drawings later on showed it still affected him.
    While not my pick, I do agree with number 1 though. What makes it more painful was that it came without notice.
    People say it's too shocking but it keeps in line with the Show's tone. "Anything in life can happen"

    The day Jimmy got shot and JT's death, to me will go down on my top five most darkest DTNG episodes. I've been watching this show since I was 10 back in 2003 even though it started in 2001. I grew up with JT, Emma, Manny, Toby, Paige, Spinner and of course Jimmy before he became known as Drake. Jimmy and JT were the OG's of the next generation and to see their lives be changed forever was heartbreaking because even though they were at times goofy and immature, they were lovable guys. I get teary eyed. 😢

  • @SUPERSTAR3333333

    A heartbreaking moment in Darcy's storyline that I'm glad was shown in this video was when she said, "It's not possible, I'm not the sort of person that happens to." That's such a prominent example of how society teaches us to blame the victims rather than the rapists. Darcy thinks that because she was a "good girl" who was saving herself for marriage and was barely ever promiscuous in any way (other than the MyRoom page) that she should be safe from someone taking advantage of her sexually. When the reality is, rapists are evil and they don't care who you are, how you look or how you act, because they just want to hurt people. And the only person who is EVER at fault is the rapist themselves. Because there is absolutely NO excuse to ever do that to someone. But the way Darcy felt is unfortunately realistic for a lot of victims. Degrassi was such an accurate, precise and realistic show and was way ahead of its time as well.

      Courtney B I think it just depends on the characters you grew up with. If we’re being honest, the characters of the newer seasons are just replicas of the older ones (ex: Clare is like almost a carbon copy of Emma except with a religious side instead of a environmental side) so if you didn’t grow up with them, you don’t care for them as much. Although I’ve watched every episode, I still prefer seasons 10-14 since I grew up with those characters but the older seasons were also really good but I didn’t have the same connection.

    Two other dark moments or storylines were Eli’s in season 10. His girlfriend had died a year prior and he was struggling with depression and hoarding and almost died after crashing his car because he was so upset after Clare tried to break up with him. Actually if you think about it Eli in the season 11 was dark too. He was struggling with his meds and wanting to get Clare back. That speech he made during his play was is one of my favorite scenes of the show.

    am i the only person who thinks the 2 part episode “jane says” should have at least gotten an honorable mention? i mean she was molested by her father a little girl and kept it secret until eventually blocking it from her memory only for him to come back. she then has to horrifyingly put the pieces of the traumatic events together in her head while living in the same house as him and it becomes so bad for her that she gets wasted one night and another night leaves and sleeps on a park bench all the while her mom and brother want to be a big happy family again. she then remembered what had happened and had to tell her brother and mom in an attempt to save her young niece from her father. i don’t know but that sounds kinda dark to me.

      @Pop Culture "Sure they exist but they’re not that common, extremely rare if that". Correct me if i'm wrong but you're saying that boyfriend abusers, school shooters and mental health is not a common issue( because clearly Rick is suffering from some sort of mental health issue). I very much disagree with that. How many school shootings occurred in the U.S. in recent years? Also, even though it's not out in the open i'm sure many teenagers have been abused by their boyfriends either physically, emotionally or sexually. Myself being included. That is why i think Rick is a great and significant character. Because he helps bring awareness to these issues that many people ignore.
