So, as you all may know by now, a main character on Degrassi has died. I don't think they've done this before, especially without reason, watching the little goodbye video they made for the actor, it didn't say that he was going off somewhere else, just looks like they killed off his character. In anycase, it was JT Yorke, a youngin' from the beginning. To me it's just weird seeing him all grown up and stuff, I mean, I've mostly just been watching the first 2 seasons of the new series, trying to get caught up and shit. So I wasn't watching the newer episodes, but it just looks like they're trying to address gang violence within schools? I didn't think it was a big problem, but maybe it is in Toronto? ah probably not. Anyways, it was awkwardly done, and if you watch what I'm assuming is next week's episode Toby really pisses me off. But I suppose he was more concerned about Liberty then being sad? Either that or, he dealt with it differently? I'm not sure, I don't know how these things work, or maybe I do, everyone just does it differently, you'd just think that for a tv show, he'd show a little more sadness to the fact that his best friend was killed.
In anycase, Degrassi High will be on DVD this spring, yes! But if you Ebay Degrassi High, it's on DVD in Australia...not bad prices either, a little more than I'd want, but I think I'll just wait for 'em to be in my local store thing...
Anyways, I gave up my life for Degrassi, so there it is.
