good show

Degrassi: The Next Generation was a very good show. I caught this show last night(Tuesday March 30, 2004) on the n-. channel. The channel shows teen oriented shows. Anyway the two episodes I saw were the episodes when Jimmy used ritalin to help him get a better shot on the basketball team and the episode when Ashley found out her dad was gay. This is a good show because this is one of the few teen shows that dealt with serious topics i.e. homosexuality, etc. Until last night, I didn't know that they made a Degrassi: Next Generation show. I also like this show because teenagers acted and are still acting like this when I was in middle school and high school. I can't compare this show to the original "Degrassi" but I can sure say this is one of the few teen shows that I've seen in a while that I can say it's actually good. I was never able to catch the original "Degrassi" because I think it used to come on showtime and I did not have showtime. I was surprised to find out that this show began airing during my last year in high school(October 2001 to be exact) so most of the people on this show is not that much younger than me. Anyway I hope this show does not get taken off the air and if it has, please put it back on. Since I'm in college now,I definitely won't be able to catch it, except for when I'm on breaks. Good show. Please watch.
