What made Degrassi so raw was that they used actual young kids. They didn’t hire adults and then just say they were 14.
D Anderson -and the kids when I watched (late 80s-early 90s) were average looking, they didn’t look like models.
Yes!!! And they talked about real shit teenagers go through!! They don’t have shows like this anymore these days 😔
Usernameunavailable69 right everything is dramatized and unrealistic.
@@mirandalafavor that's the reason I love Skam (italian version), because when they talk the conversation is so realistic
They started to throw that away in later seasons though with some characters. Like jay and alex looked like 25 yr olds. Also declan, miles, and jane looked pretty old for high schoolers
"this show goes from 0 to 100 REAL quick"
- official tagline of Degrassi
Also in drakes one song (who was also in degrassi)
Another official tagline of Degrassi (and this one is my fave): "It goes there".
@@Yamieddie Omg that brought all the memories of the promos back to my brain
Nah, this show's official tagline was "Degrassi. It goes there!"
“It GOES there”😂
degrassi was NEVER a family show. it was geared towards teens/adults, the more you watch of it the more you'll realize that.
When i was like 6 ( i am 10 now ) i watched this show the one on Netflix and umm it was nottttttt I proportiot at all i was stupid me and my sister got in trouble lol
Brynnlie Bourg what did you think it was lol?? It’s like rated 15
Lol preteen me was gutted by this show
It is still marketed as one. No idea why. Saw it in that category the other day
I watched like 12 seasons of it and I felt like it was? it's the kinda show 10-20 year olds can watch and learn from idk I wouldve loved it as a kid
The fact that they were meeting at a hotel in general....
I know right
ik i feel like meeting somewhere that isn’t public for your first meet up is such a red flag
Ong as a freshman
Yeah, you know, for a smart girl, Emma's kinda stupid.
I think they address that in the episode and Emma never planned on going up to his room they were just supposed to hang out in the lobby
Degrassi was a collection of the worst things that could ever happen to anyone, happening to everyone.
😂😂 crazy apt description
Yes
well the newest netflix version ( which is the only degrassi i have watched) is all about political correction..
Was really bad overall.
it had some good stuff, but overall it was.. yikes.
@@akhsdenlew1861 Next Gen (this series) is *WAY* better than Next Class, trust me. Netflix ruined it by making the seasons too short
@@justjoannak yes it seems that way... i'll probably start watching the next gen.
Which season does zoe and maya and tristan and miles come in?
Biggest red flag: one pizza for an entire class
Ikr you’d need like 15 boxes
That's not even enough for my shift at work
That's not even enough for me alone
Angry Karen ugh I know!! I was like Emma how is that supposed to been everyone and then when they get into the room, there’s only one bed and he knocks on the closet like Emma!!!! Come on!!
THE LARGEST RED FLAG HAHAH yet not the largest pizza, that looked like at most a medium hahaha
Okay, this show is basically just one huge red flag personified
"Don't date anyone, just play Animal Crossing" is good advice.
It's already my life anyway.
Yeah I agree
let me fix this "Don't date anyone, just play smash bros for the xbox 360"
Someone Random let me fix that, spend all day watching The Office and playing CoD
@@viperbreathgaming8992 even better

first epsidoe about pedophilia. remember their slogan was always "degrassi, it goes there"

hunncho2x it’s as family friendly as Mtvs Undressed.
Whatever it takes, I know I can make it through is a hypothesis the writers test quite often.
this shi is a red flag after the beef
@@kanyewestlover276 drake came up with the slogan
"All these adults are supposed to be 28 or 29 but somehow everyone looks 45"
What's funny is the actors were all between the ages of 28 and 31. They really just looked old for their age 😅
Its just style and makeup and stuff.
I don't know, man... I'm 28 and the guy who plays Archie/Snake was *29* and he still looks old enough to play my dad lmao
Whoa 😅
Oh my god, they were?! I'm 30 and I don't look nearly that old, neither do my friends who are the same age as me. Weird.
-you just retold his joke
Degrassi is one of the craziest shows I’ve ever seen . You should definitely watch the whole show including the 80s version .
The one episode I remember the most about the 80’s version is when the one student (forgot his name) committed suicide in the bathroom while everyone was in class. Like you can hear the gunshot in the background in one of the scenes when they were in one of the classes. Such an eerie sound when i went back to rewatch that.
@@anonnnymousthegreat ohhh Claude
@@anonnnymousthegreat wow I didn't know that.
“The same outcome wouldve happened even if he wasn’t a 40 yr old man”
Very true! Yes, that guy who you met online didn’t turn out to be 40 yr old man but that doesn’t mean he won’t hurt you
Yep, I've heard of many older teen boys raping pre-teen girls and such. It's truly sad.
@@RedRoseSeptember22 yeah I agree, but it happens to plenty of guys too. A few personal guy friends of mine went through that one with a guy and the other two were women that did it to them and it still affects them😔
That's why I didn't like it when they repeated this storyline for Darcy. It should have been a creepster who was 16, not a middle-aged guy.
@@jeremyud That's true. It won't always be a middle-aged guy that could put a teen in danger.
@@JST03 That's horrible....but the topic was, what could happen to pre-teen/young girls not guys, so...even if you didn't mean it, it feels like derailing. But I agree, everyone no matter the age or gender should be careful in dating online. Even if it's not rape it could be other horrible things too.

Guess no one told Alex how Degrassi, “goes there”. 🤣
I totally forgot that was the catch phrase for that show lol
he needs to know emma is called emma cause the episode spike chose to have her won an emmy....it went there from jump..at the time it was a touchy subject....
Best comment ever 🤣❤
The theme song: *shows a bunch of teens having harmless fun and learning life lessons along the way*
The plot: “several students die, one of them has a baby, another gets shot and permanently injured, and the school is literally on the brink of shutting down”
haha true
well now I want to watch this show lol
Ikr like wtf😂😂😂
Marvel Fan all the episodes are on the official channel. Start from episode 101 (episode one season one). Have a blast ✌🏾😂

That’s a mood
I can relate. Maybe Alex is also an INFJ...
Hes going through a tough time rn
I wouldn’t really call this a “family” show, it’s the first show that I watched when hit my teens/late pre-teens because it was really raw and educational for that demographic.
No this is a family show. Parents are supposed to watch this with their kids so they can answer questions and help them understand the lessons the kids in the show are learning.
DRIA. [Fierra2000] I agree 100 percent
DRIA. [Fierra2000] honestly most late pre teen shows could be considered family shows because they cover most of the same problems and aren’t really raunchy
@@Fierra2000 agreed
Totally agree. Watch this so much with my sisters and my mom was in the background like, "That's why you don't do this or do that". Like everyone in school would talk about it and we'd all be in agreement of what was wrong and what not to do.
"Don't date anyone, just play animal crossing" is the best piece of advice ever, no matter what age group you are a part of.
I’ve been using this piece of advice my whole life...still am
3:06 they look old, but they are the actual people who were in the Degrassi High series from 1987 to 1991. They essentially are the age they are supposed to be.
Thx
Exactly what I was thinking, they just pretty much look and are their ages, even on a TV show, lol. :)
They didn't glam those actors up, if they had early baldness or early receding hair that was because the same was true for the real people
THE FACT THAT HE MADE AN ENTIRELY NEW RED FLAG ANIMATION I-
If he were to review the Rick episodes he’d have to make another one.
i was reading that and i saw the animation about the bubble with the flag on it
fun fact: cristine from simply nailogical got a role in this show but turned it down for school
There was a girl they were setting up to be Hunter's girlfriend that left the show for a starring role and then her show got cancelled. lol

Me: *gets flashbacks of the teen pregnancy, school shooting, suicide, drugs, mental disorders, rape, gangs, domestic abuse and more in the show* "It's not a family show"
Liv Piv I guess in the sense that, this shit could be happening to your child, so buckle up everyone and prepare for another episode of ‘Teachable Moments’...aka Degrassi.

LITERALLY THOUGH
He kept saying family show and I'm like: not it

if there was any show that deserves the full orchestra
@@nightazday7988 it’d be degrassi for sure. They went allll in, in the first episode 😭
This wasn't a family show though, it's always been a show aimed at teens and preteens, to grow with the cast, and learn how to deal with tough situations. In the 70s they often used it to talk about taboo subjects, like sexual assault, but they also try to teach acceptance of others, and how to not be a piece of shit teen. It wasn't ever one of my favorites, but I appreciate the effort and thought
You mean the eighties ... in the 1979 Early 80s it was only the kids of degrading St

Yeah, i graduated hs in 2007, and realized the original “new generation” class was the same age as me. I was thinking they were atleast a year or 2 ahead of me.
The adult actors were the actual ages of the characters, lol. They were kids back in junior high and high
I loved how they brought back some of the cast from the og 80’s degrassi to play themselves
Dying 😂 at your 'big ol red flag' marching band. Literally what I was thinking

I’m just waiting for “the kissing booth 2 is kinda dumb...”

I remember a commercial as a kid for this show. All I can remember is: "And then she gets in a car crash and dies! Degrassi. It so totally goes there."
It scared me for years and I've never even watched an episode.
Broooo literally every commercial something extreme happens and they say “degrassi goes there” 😂😂😭😭😭😂 it used to be so dramatic. But I loved it

At the pitch meeting:
"Okay guys, how should we start our series. This is episode 1 we gotta have a hook"
"Pedophilia and kiddie smut!"
"Frank, you need to calm down "
This the third version of the show LOL They always did really *real* issues, that kids were actually facing even if parents weren't even aware of it yet.
Mandisa W the parents were dumbasses😂😂
The Kids of Degrassi Street (70s), Degrassi Junior High (80s), Degrassi next generation (00s), and Degrassi Next Class (10s). Degrassi has been around for decades and it's always been about important kid/teen issues. Some of the episodes do a really good job of covering important topics
@@leatom1333 Oh man, I forgot Degrassi Street, that was before my time. I think it wasn't on US TV (PBS) until Junior High. It was one of the few shows our school actually encouraged us to watch, and I think a teacher showed an episode at one point.
Yes
I wonder if the rest of the Degrassi cast feel super jealous about Drake's success?
i feel like they are all supportive
lmao I know I would
they’re all friends still
I also wonder if any of them still talk?
This comment is cruel😅😅😅
"jordan is coming here, he wants to meet me"
that sounds like the biggest predator I ever heard
Not just Drake, Nina Dobrev got her start here too.
Everyone knows her from Vampire Diaries. And me, when I saw her, I was thinking : "hey this girl was in Degrassi!"
So did Shenae Grimes (Darcy) who also was later in 90210.
I totally forgot she was in degrassi

FernEden Same, but I replace It with San Andreas
Exactly. My bf and I share a switch and now I cant have my own island because its only 1 island per switch. 😭
Degrassi was one of those shows that went from 1 to 100 in like five minutes of each episode. Like at times I couldn't even believe it was a teen drama
i was always telling myself, damn, these kids... have more drama going on than regular adults.
KIDS SHOULD NOT BE DATING AT THIS TIME!! dear God, its suicide!
i binged through the first 12 seasons of it at work over like, 2 months or so, and it was more stressful than the work i was doing
Emma had the biggest glow up in history. She went from drab to fab for real 💁🏼♀️
@Eugene Kendrick clearly she just said it

The worst part of Degrassi EVER
Didn't realize how young the kids were when they started. I only cought them when they were teens.
I knew the show was raw but bruh that was the pilot...💀
Degrassi was one hell of a ride lol
Back when Drake was Jimmy
Back when Drake was Aubrey. Lol
Karmen Jackson
isn’t aubrey mainly a girl’s name. Should’ve turned that b into a d, Audrey, would’ve been better for a guy
Actually I just looked up, Aubrey is traditionally a male’s name but is now more commonly used as a feminine name in the u.s., so it’s unisex. Maybe different spelling variants is more common among one gender than the other

aside from all the ones that died and didn't make it.......that got dark fat
I’ve literally never heard of this show but I decided to watch this cause I’m use to Alex ruining my childhood, it’s become routine
You're life is going to change. You have no idea 1. How long it's going to take you 2. What a rollercoaster it will be. It's a Canadian anime but it isn't animated.
Start with junior high. All the episodes are RUclips
It's an amazing show!!
Lol. You should. It was pretty decent.
Same he makes me realise that my favourite thing's look like nonsense
I literally yelled at the mom saying “you better go with your kid like tf” then she didn’t and I screamed into a pillow
Fr Spike when it came to discipline wasn't a good mom. She supported Emma and her interests, but when it came to punishing her and teaching her valuable lessons she wasn't very good at doing that.
My mom would’ve said hell no you can’t meet a stranger you met online! *sweatdrop* in fact she still tells me that today and I’m 20
to be fair i think emma went without telling anyone
I don't think she told the mom, but what in the living hell was Caitlin (the mother's friend Emma was talking to on the stairs) thinking with that "advice"?!?!?!
I really love how Degrassi communicated the stories and the issues on level with the kids that watched it.
They always had actors who were the actual age of the kids they portrayed, they gave them realistic motives and thoughts and dialogues, they didnt turn them into "dumb kids" but also didnt treat them like adults. There's something very real and honest about the way they told these stories that I haven't seen in any other show. I'm really sad the Netflix reboot got cancelled, it was a little more messy and clumsy and weirdly paced but I felt like it really had potential.
Their actions had real consequences, not like anything today, they always portrayed storylines as close to realistic as TV could possibly make it, no hero's, shit things happen you get over it, and it shown that really well, I watched upto half way through season 10 but all my favourite characters had left by then so I gave up
I loved degrassi I always go back to it grew up on it not my favorite tv show but most def for me nostalgia come to mind
I wonder if Shane Dawson think of it
I know and the ending of Next Class deserved more fanfare as it would be final Degrassi series! The production company sold the school, and that was pretty much the last nail on the coffin.
RIP Degrassi 1979-2017
I LOVE that new "big ol red flag" thing with the three bands. I can't stop laughing.🤣😂🤣😂

“This is the first episode of a family show” wasn’t the first episode of the previous generation banned from us because it discussed ab**tion lol. Degrassi don’t care
They skipped over this episode and showed the episode where Ashley ran for class president against JT. This episode was on hold until 2003.
And they waited extra long to show Manny's abortion episode. Must have thought we couldn't handle it.
why the asterisks in abortion? (not trying to be rude, im just curious/confused)
owo Lucifer I don’t really know which words RUclips consider controversial so I censored just in case

I get what you were saying about shows today being a little more romanticized, but I feel like teen shows since the 70s or 80s have always been either raw in tackling dark subjects or amiable in playing it safe and somewhat unrealistic.
Alex: "but before that really quick-"
Me: Ah there it is
*skips 10 seconds multiple times *
Same lol
I feel called out
Legit the only time I decided to do this on this one video of his haha
ME
same, btw if you're in pc there's a skipping extension for that
I'm on phone right now so I feel called out
First episode of Degrassi:
Weird older man chats up young teenager pretending to be friend.
2020:
Weird older Drake chats up young teenagers pretending to be friend.
O_o
LMAO THIS IS GOLD
I’m glad somebody doesn’t ignore his disgusting behavior just because he’s famous.
"All these TV shoos"
HAHA THE SHADE
Alex, you're great. Seriously, don't sell yourself short.
"..You'll never hate me as much as I do."
I'm concerned for you, Meyers; thoroughly concerned. Whatever is going on with you..... (I think you've gone past the regular, old self-deprecating humor we all recognize as normal and a joke, but maybe that's just me) I appreciate that you're still making videos through whatever 2020 even is now, and via these videos, still making us laugh.
I get that sometimes this kind of humor can be used to hide something, but tbh I like it & use it on myself even though I have good self-esteem. Calling myself ugly, imagining myself in bad cenarios, roasting myself... I just think it's funny. Everyone has their style so, don't worry about it. If something was wrong with Meyers there'd be more hints or sudden changes from him.
@@spaghetto9836 I agree 100℅
That kinda humor is called lamp shading and yeah I use it to.
I remember Degrassi in so far as I used to see ads for it all the time as a kid. Everytime I'd see one, I'd think "Nah that's for adults. When I'm older I'll watch this"
Monsicorn I literally told myself when I was 8 that when I turn 13, I would watch Degrassi and I never did lol
Honestly whenever I saw those ads on Teennick I always thought "Meh I'm fine watching reruns of Drake and Josh as well as Ned's Declassified."
“You’ll never hate me as much as I do.”
Well if that ain’t a *big MOOD*
You are everywhere!
@@alyfepoisonbunny2716 Yea, that's his thing
Nah this one is fake

I think this show seems more raw because that guy genuinely seemed like a normal guy, he seemed like a nice teacher (at first). I feel like other shows play it up, make the actors overact a bit, make them seem overly creepy at first and have more of a cartoon-y unreal villain vibe. It helps you dissociate when it's so exaggerated, but this guy seemed to be more on the realistic end, which is what made it worse. Also the fact that she was actually just such an innocent kid, and leading up to all of this, everyone was worried for innocent reasons and the like.
But there still where so many red flags! How did she not realize tho?
KaityMay_ClayDesigns because its 2001, and catfishing wasn’t really a known thing.
We had something similar to the show you’re talking about in the U.K., it was called Grange Hill. Which tackled similar issues, so I like to think of Degrassi as a Canadian Grange Hill. The issues covered in GH were as followed:
Teen pregnancy
Drug abuse
Racism
Sexual assault
Death
Divorce
HIV/AIDS
Homelessness
etc.
watching degrassi is part of the passage of life one must watch it growing up
we really saw the characters turn into adults
Oof welp never seen it so o well
I never had any interest xD
I'm still so PRESSED that they just left Next Class off like that, without telling anybody
for real. they should've continued with next gen
Bruh I had hope for sooooo long and then it was shattered 😭😭
Yeeeppppp
Y'know, I was a little spooked by the "he's a pedo" twist, but then I remembered that this is Canada. "Rape whistle" commercial Canada.
So that wasn't too surprising, considering.
The Rape whistle one is harmless compared to the "be careful at your workplace" commercial.
swanpride The WHAT? Please, elaborate.

@@swanpride what this ad called
Quinn Masselink So interesting! Maybe I should watch more Canadian stuff
Sweet Lord, that scene could have turned quickly into a Criminal Minds episode if her friends weren’t quick enough to save her from the pedo.
Degrassi: It went there....
But seriously tho, I was home from college and started watching this when my sisters were watching this, and I remember how fascinated I was at how raw it was. Teens were actually being played by teens and they didn't shy away from stuff most American shows won't touch.
Alex :All these adults should be like 29 but they look like they're 40
Me:Well, look at how the tables turn
They all really were in their late twenties to early 30's as Degrassi in general cast age appropriate people.
If I remember correctly they were the actors that played the teenage characters from the previous generation.
We’re just so used to 20 year old teenagers and 25 year old parents.
Yeah they were actually teens on the degrassi and the latest early twenties
I really need that "big ol' red flag" as a gif with transparent background
This show was really real though. Maybe not in the sense that all of these things won't happen to the same kids. But literally everyone has seen or experienced one of the things that happened in this show. And the kids were basically the age they were portraying.
“Does anybody remember Degrassi?”
It would be literally impossible for me to forget Degrassi, I went through absolutely the biggest Degrassi phase ever and that video title just gave me so many freaking middle school flashbacks.
But regardless of...everything, I do really appreciate them trying to tackle important issues for kids and teenagers, and having a lot of diversity in their cast and characters, especially in a time where T.V. was lacking in it.
This so was my life!
From 2008 to 2010 pretty much all my sister watched was degrasi
This is one of my fav shows! I can still re-watch it today and enjoy it.
"You'll never hate me as much as I do."
If that ain't a mood.
My health teacher, instead of teaching us, made us watch this show in her class EVERY DAY until we finished the school year. Literally no joke, we never did ANY work, just watched degrassi. Just before the bell would ring, she’d pause an episode, tell us the healthy moral like, don’t shoot up ur school, dont suicide, dont get pregnant, then we’d leave
sounds like a good class! plus you can learn a lot from shows honestly. it really does mirror real life more so than reality tv. even cartoon like hey arnold are more realistic than a lot of these modern shows.
that sounds fun tbh
that sounds fun tbh
Mom: "You're not allowed to watch this."
9-or-10-Year-Old Me: "Ah, my mom sucks. All the OTHER kids probably watch this."
Present-day me: *researches the reason Degrassi was cancelled* "Damn, no wonder I wasn't allowed to watch this." O_O;
I thought it was just me! I literally had no idea Degrassi was just straight up about children doing drugs and getting raped. I’m so glad my mom told me no

Hey, it might’ve made you tougher and wiser knowing what to be careful of down the road
anrick13 I like to think it would’ve but I know 10 year old me was an about WUSS and I would’ve been traumatized lmaoooo
I didn't know about this show until 2010 when I was 18. I watched it for the first time with my 12 year old cousin. Her mom started letting her watch it when she was nine. I was surprised until I realized that she has seen worse things in real life on the street where she lived. She had gang members who lived on her street. Drive by shootings were a regular occurrence. I remember going over to her house for Christmas and not being able to leave her house afterwards because there was triple homicide in the street in front of her house and there ended up being a police standoff.
@@anrick1362 Kids can get wise by their parents TALKING about drugs and sketchy af people instead of watching a kid's show about it. It's just parents let the media watch their kids, and blame it when they grow up bad.
"If all of your friends are telling you that being with a certain person is a bad idea..you should probably listen to them" I learned this from experience 💀💀
"does anyone remember degrassi"
yeah, i'm canadian
to those who aren't: basically, every canadian actor ever was in degrassi. take a piece of Canadian media. at least three of those actors were probably in degrassi.
I used to live a few minutes away from the studio lot they filmed degrassi at
Canada! 🇨🇦
Yup! I used to watch the previous generation in my early teenage years!
@@XvXHaruhiSuzumiyaXvX oh, cool!
"are you lost baby girl"
Omfg
Its pronounced “gorl”
I'm throwing up in my mouth, I just managed to bleach away my last memory of that movie WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS???
I've got a show recomendation; Marvel's cloak and daggar. Its about two teenagers with superpowers solving the mystery of their powers and somethig else that i cannot remember.
Wasn't that cancelled a while ago
