they better totally have the original cast stop in from time to time… and should totally use the Peach Pit as the dinner they meet after rocking the bars and clubs (yes I want an edgier version)

Dustin Milligan is a great actor. I might watch the show just because he is in it

Of course it makes sense that there would be some continuity since it is a spin-off. I’m just stating that Degrassi: TNG is quite popular in US now (as it is in Canada), and there is this 90210 spinoff, that has the same premise as Degrassi. The U.S. can make this “second-generation school drama” to go along with all the others. I just want Degrassi to increase its success in the States. Honestly, how many Americans get exposed to Canadian television compared to the amount of American television Canadians get exposed to?

Not necessarily “compete,” showtime. But a sequel to a series does, by nature, imply or require there to be some continuity or links to the original show. Just because Degrassi carries on for decades in Canada doesn’t mean the U.S. can’t have a second-generation school drama, as well.

I feel as if The CW is trying to compete with Degrassi: The Next Generation. The whole thing with Andrea’s daughter Hannah being present in this 90210 remake draws similarities to Emma, Spike’s daughter in Degrassi. Just a thought…

I also heard that “hannah” the child of Andrea will be in the pilot as well. Hearsay, but I remember you suggesting that very thing when news first broke out. =) and that’s no april fool’s joke. lol
