Favorite Degrassi Minis

So I was watching some of the good ol' Degrassi Minis yesterday. The really GREAT ones, not the stupid no ones and decided to share some of my favorites with you!
Degrassi Party Ettiquette. ^^^^ Hilarious. It's impossible not to laugh at the goofiness of that one! Oh, Toby and Holly J? Priceless!
This one, Six Monthes. ^^ My cries. You can probably see why I like it.

My cries once again. The saddest mini, but also my favorite. I Won't Forget is flawless.
Part 2 of Monster Moon is really the only one worth watching. It's also really the only great Degrassi mini from season 10. It's hilarious.
Good Times is the best mini from season 9. It's one of the ONLY reasons to actually watch that mediocre season.
It's impossible to not laugh at the humor in this one. Because every comment is just really funny, and unfortunatley, kinda true.

Season 11 Opening Credits

Yep, here you go! TeenNick posted the new opening credits today. They weren't working for a while, but here they are up and ready! I thought it was going to Jake Epstein or Cassie Steele singing, but seeing that it's Alexz Johnson, I can't say I'm suprised. Stephen tweets about her ALOT. I thought she did a great job with a new take on the theme!
As for the credits, they are definitely up there. Now nothing will replace my love of the season 4 credits, but these were plain amazing. Adam hanging was cute. Uh, my cries. Clare came after Jake in this one. I gotta admit, I'm a little shocked Chantay is still there. But maybe they'll pull a Blue and only put her in like one episode. Haha. Holly J and Anya graduating. I hate Imogen already, she look's like she's gonna be a real fake. I am SUPER excited for the Eli/Fiona friendship, they look like they'll balance each other out. Perhaps become the new Ellie/Marco.

My Entry for the DegrassiFanbase Contest


degrassi-cast-degrassi-3518518-400-300.jpg



I haven't even entered my own contest yet. Duh, I'm an idiot. Okay, here we go . . .
1) Is a tie.
JT and Liberty
I thought that they fit together really well. They had hardly anything in common, but I thought their relationship really expressed genuine love. The two of them fought tons after they broke up, always telling Toby how much they couldn't stand the other, but in the end, they really did love each other. And that's pretty much why I heart Jiberty. They had a rocky beginning. A rocky relationship. And the farthest thing from a happy ending. But they had one thing in common - love. And that's what Degrassi pairings should be about.
Eli and Clare
The way they started out was undeniably perfect. You can say what you want about EClare, but their flirting and partnership was ADORABLE. Tireless attempts at a relationship during the Boiling Point, worked out well in their favor. Because I'm pretty sure the writers give them the most interesting plots on purpose. After they became a couple, they had so many struggles and things pulling them back down, they still stayed together, all of that. Jealousy and instability eventually got the best of them, and I miss the days where they were each other's 'rock.' Oh yes, another couple who ACTUALLY LOVED EACH OTHER.
2) Peter and Darcy


In season five, I hated Peter. In season six, I still hated him. But I always liked Darcy for some reason, and when they got together, it worked well. Darcy helped Peter stop being a jerk, Peter helped Darcy with her rape. I did think that after all that, they'd make it through, but unfortunatley, they did not. Whatever though, I'll always love Parcy.
3)Declan and Holly J
I know, shocking. I hate Holly J in seasons seven and eight, but suprisingly, I only liked her in season nine because of Declan. Declan was also a big jerk for breaking up Spane. But together, they work. Two  former villians forming a power based relationship was amazing. I LOVED them in Degrassi Takes Manhattan, and even though that was the last time I cared for Dolly J, they were awesome in season nine.
4)Sean and Ellie
You all know that I love SEmma, but I think I love Sellie more. Their sort of like Parcy, but I love Parcy more. I have mixed feelings for Sellie, but overall, I loved their relationship. Their scenes in Take On Me were adorable, and I loved how they helped each other out. Sean became who he is with Ellie's help, and Ellie became sweeter and even better because of Sean.
5) Jay and Manny
In a time of failure that was season. JT was dead, Jiberty was also dead, Semma had broken up, Palex was awful, Marco was terrible. And yet, Jay, who I had hated up until that point redeemed himself when he fell for Manny. She needed him as a fake fiancee, and he needed her just because well - he loved her. They fell for each other, and each became a better person.
6) Craig and Manny
Haha, I'm bias. During the whole Crash vs Cranny thing, I rooted for Manny just because I hate Ashley. But I think I love Cranny because of how wild they were, and how yet sweet they were at the same time. Though I loved them in season five more, season three was also great. They had alot of history, and Craig was always best with Manny.
7) Sean and Emma
I heart Semma. They are the original Eli and Clare. Good Girl meets Bad Boy. They were really cute in season one. But just okay in season two, and downright AWFUL in season three. Maybe that's because I hated Emma in that one. But in season six, they redeemed themselves, by becoming a standout couple in yet another time of terror for couples. I was sad that Emma didn't end up marrying Sean.
8) Zane and Riley
They started out as pretty much an attempt to bring a new Dylan and Marco to the scene. I didn't think I like Ziley, because I HATED Darco. But Ziley worked. They were cute, and new. When they first came on, I had never seen anything like it. I like Zane better then Riley, so they make me like him a little more. They never worked out for a while, but eventually did in the end.
9) Craig and Ashley
For someone who loves Cranny so much, Crashley is the devil. But yet, a part of me loves them. Craig Manning, hi, I love you. I really just adored them in Voices Carry, maybe because I'm a sucker for instability. But yeah, they were a cool rock n' roll couple.
10) Spinner and Jane
I love them seperately and together. Jane had issues in season eight, and thanks to Darcy, Spinner had already become a better person. But she helped him through his cancer, and he helped her through everything else. They were the best with each other. The only reason they are not higher up is because of the cheating situation in Degrassi Takes Manhattan.

Okay, I am sick to my stomach reading these episode descriptions. Thank you to Kyle for posting them as usual! So far, I think I'm most excited for LoveGame, Cry Me A River 1&2 and Dirt Off Your Shoulder. Seeing Clare trying to make Eli jealous will be awesome, because jealousy is always interesting in the Degrassi universe. I'm pro-EClare so of course I'm happy, because I'm almost positive they're getting back together. Also, you all know I hate Dave. And you all know I <3 Adam. So we know how this storyline's playing out in my opinion. Get ready for the hate in that review when the episode airs, Dave. Dirt Off Your Shoulder. One world. IMOELI. I HATE YOU. No, no, no. I can already tell I'm gonna hate Imogen. So, no, they aren't worse then Cake. They are tied for passionate hatred. But an Eli episode is always interesting. So, you know.

New Degrassi Fanbase Contest/MuchMusic Promo

SPOILER ALERT.
Above is the brand new promo for MuchMusic. And at this point, I have no clue what's going on. It's obvious that Eli's made it so he can't have emotions. That I'm sure of. Fiona's getting a love interest? Covered. Clare's using Jake to attempt to make Eli jealous? Yep. Holly J? No. I already know I'm going to continue my hatred of Dave this season. Cake and ImoEli were probably be my new JTia. Which if you're new, means my new passionate hatred, I will probably hate both of them more. And I didn't think that was possible.
Drianca's getting the biggest storyline, that's for sure. That creepy black guy's gonna probably rape Bianca. Drew's gonna be the good guy and get revenge. For once. KC's cheating on Jenna with Marisol. Why? I will never know. I wish we could go back to nice-boy-troubled-past-season-8 KC. Because latley, I've been hating him. And for once? I meet be team Jenna. I know, shocking.

Anyway, to the contest. Any Degrassi blogger can enter. All you have to do is send me/make a post about/or talk about your top ten Degrassi couples.

Degrassi Now or Never TeenNick Promo

Ology.com released the brand new Degrassi promo for this summer on Friday! If I wasn't excited before, I certainly am now! Unfortunatley, I've been two stressed over the EClare/disgusting Cake-ImoEli scenes to speak. More to come later.

Degrassi: Now or Never

Hey, guys! Sorry I've been MIA lately, but I've been pretty busy with school. Anyway, Teen Nick came out with a brand new promo on Monday, although leaked over the weekend. The new block of episodes will be called Degrassi: Now or Never and will run for seven weeks, every weekday over the summer. I'm really looking forward to seeing the actions between the characters, most specifically Anya, Clare, Jake, Eli and Imogen. But, I am NOT shipping Cake or Imoeli for now. Call me bias, but I'm still on Team EClare. Probably, always will, they're my OTP. Anyway, before I say what I think, here's the promo:
Look's pretty exciting, huh? I know there's been a lot of debate over which promo was better, Steal Your Heart or Shark In the Water. I'm not really sure here, some aspects of both are phenomenal, and I like some better than others. SITW really threw the ideas that the characters were experiencing in your face, and made you guess, I really liked that. But SYH, had some great factors. too. The subtle bits tossed out, such as Fiona and Eli. I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to seeing a Fiona/Eli friendship. Too much crazy in this relationship, which should be fun! We need another girl-boy friendship, as the last really stable one we had was like Emma-Manny-JT-Toby years ago. Fiona and Eli seem like interesting friends.
As for Adam, I'm really excited for him. Look's like he's got a new lady in his life, Miss Katie Maitlin. I'm not going to hate on her for now for ditching Adam, as her description says she's clueless when it comes to love. But I hope Katie/Adam work out better then Fiona/Adam because, well, I'm a huge FAdam fan. Hopefully, they'll be pretty cute.
As for Anya, I hope she gets the cocaine storyline. Samantha Munro is such a great actress, and she deserves something as complex as crack.
Eli sneaking glances at Clare? I almost passed out from the adorableness. If I don't get an EClare reunion, I don't know what I'll do. Because I will die, if it happens. Clare-Jake can get out, Jake could not be more uninteresting to me. Imogen-Eli can get out too, but I think Imogen will be pretty cool.
