where in the series does this movie fit?


Specifically. what I mean is: does this movie take place after season 7? or after season 8? I haven't watched season 7 or 8 yet, so I don't want to watch the movie until I catch up. Anyone know where this movie fits in??

It's the season finale for Season 8.

reply

They're calling it the season 8 finale. But after seeing the trailer, It doesn't seem to be related to the season. It doesn't seem to fit anywhere.

I wish they would have put it at the end of season 7 and make it the series finale. it would be a great finale because we get to see all of the original cast.

season 8 sucked because it barely had any of the original characters.

reply

A show cannot "suck" because they have new characters.
I wish people would just give the new kids a chance. well most of them one.

reply

Of course it can. I grew up watching Degrassi. I watched all the cast members get older and go to college. At 23, I'd like to see them all in college facing issues college kids would have but instead, we're given a whole new batch of high schoolers. I've lost interest in the show because of that.

In my opinion, it doesn't seem to fit with any of the seasons. That's only because the storyline, as it appears in the ads, fits more with things we know about individual characters, not storylines of seasons. There is also alot with characters that haven't really been shown in a while

reply

It is the Season 8 Finale. It's actually the 4 part Season 8 finale "Paradise City" combined into a movie.

Does Season 8 only cover half a year like Seasons 6 and 7 each did?

Yes it only covers half a year.

It's a made for TV movie...

They rarely fit anywhere in the actual series and most likely will go unacknowledged throughout the rest of the series. I'll be insanely surprised if this movie impacts Degrassi as much as saying "Hey, remember that crazy time when we were going to L.A. to be in a movie and I found a phone in the bushes?"


(lol best quote in the movie that was)

reply

Yeah LOL they will come back from "winter break" and it won't be mentioned ever again.

yeah i was thinking that too.

ville valo is sexy.jake epstein is good looking. and cassie steele is hot.

reply

Degrassi does that all the time! The one thing that they never brought up after a couple of episodes was Paige's rape; like it never happened. You think that it would pop up somewhere at least once in the future, unless she's like really good at handling things.

reply

The only thing that made sense to me was Spinner's arm, because it was in a sling. So, I guess it was right after his accident.

reply

The movie fits in after Spinner got shot at the Dot. In one scene, his arm is in a sling.

reply

Yes, but then why is Kelly still around? Wasn't he arrested and kicked out of school?

reply

Kelly wasn't kicked out of school. He was removed from Emma and Manny's dorm.
