I watched that show last night (this morning to be exact. I was waiting for 5 cause my mom and i were supposed to go walking.... she canceled... that bitch.) It was the one where she cuts. I've seen it tons of times now and i still have an utter hatred for it. I am personally against any shows that show cutting, be it in a good or a bad light. The thing that bothers me the most is that they made the 'punk rock' chick do it. It sets up stereotypes. I'm not a 'punk' nor am i a 'rock' person. I am some girl who fits in with a tiny group of people and yet i am a cutter. Nobody suspects me and when i told my best friend i did it, she said that she thought only a certain group of people did it.
So, i hate that one episode. It drives me insane... and i just realized i ranted in your comments. O_o so sorry.
I personally love the gay guy the best. I like him more after everybody knew he was gay than i do before they knew. It's entertaining. I saw the one where Spinner (i think) was over at that one guys house and he was choking and the gay guy was trying to help him but instead Spinner ran around to get away. O___o heh.... ah well... I'm done now. *nod*
Haha...no prob bout the ranting...and the gay-guy your refering to...his name is Marco...the infamous "boyfriend" of Ellie. I agree that it was stereotypical of Degrassi...but I guess I liked the fact that they had the balls to show ppl who cut on TV. Yes...I am a fanatic now of Degrassi...and can't wait till Thursday for the new episode. There...I ranted...now we're even! *nods*
Haha, i knew it was something. *nod* But Degrassi isn't the only teen show that's shown cutting. *did research for her project* Buffy, 7th Heaven, ER, a few british shows, and 90210 have all done it. In fact it's not all that uncommon for them to do it.
Actually, all those shows, except ER, are targetting teens. >_< They may not all be teenaged actors because, after all, america has this weird ideal that shows teenagers looking like adults so they hire adults, but you know. -_- Weird america. Degrassi is different as it isn't made in america. *nods* ^_^
