With the show’s large cast, I think they’ll pull it off.
It got me to thinking, though. I’m 32 years old — closer in age to the likes of Snake and Joey Jeremiah than I am to “The Next Generation,” or this current generation of cast, which now that almost all of the original cast is gone, is more like the “next-next generation.” Yet I enjoy it, because it’s well-written, interesting, and addictive — even though it’s not aimed at me. I have a friend in their 20’s – not naming names – who’ll watch (and enjoy) Hannah Montana.
So here’s your chance to come out. Leave a comment, and tell me what “guilty pleasure” shows YOU watch. You can sign your posts anonymously if you must. Make me feel like I’m not the only crazy person watching TV that’s not aimed at me. Then again, director Kevin Smith has spent his whole career being an out-and-proud Degrassi fan, putting references into almost all of his movies, and even eventually appearing on the show itself!
In the meantime, here’s that new Degrassi promo again. The new season of Degrassi starts here in the United States next week on TeenNick.
