Now IMDB classifies the entire series under the Degrassi Junior High title, for some reason they've combined both series into one but I went with the high school years. I'm sure most people who grew up in Canada saw at least one episode of this show at some point. It always discussed important issues that faced teens, but wasn't preachy and wasn't as cheesey as the American 90210. It won seveal Gemini awards over its run and even won an International Emmy in Children's Programming. I was too young to relate to it when it was first on, but I used to watch the reruns on CBC. During my first year of University, my entire floor would watch the reruns in our common room at least once a week before heading to the DC for dinner.
Does that leave Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi: The Next Generation still available, Commish? Either way, good pick Miss Teeks...I was never a fan growing up, but was made to watch more than one episode in health class!

And liamenator...awesome pick as well, I love BB, even though it drives me nuts half the time, definitely a guilty pleasure!
