LOL, Yick apeared in a TNG episode. Oh man, Stephanie, ha. I had forgotten about her. She was off the show at this point, but remember when her mom won the lottery and suddenly her annoying little brother had all this new [!@#$%^&*] and Yick was wondering where the hell it came from?

OMG THANK YOU in regards to Alex Steele as Angie. That made NO SENSE to me. I believe Pat Mastroianni is done with Joey and the show, but still! That was the perfect opportunity to literally call this Degrassi: The Next Generation: The Next Generation. DTNG jumped off with Spike's daughter, and it should have continued with Joey's. Ugh.

Re: Paige. Nothing makes me happier or screams Degrassi TNG more than Paige Michalchuk and the Sexkittens.

Yick was one of my favorites on DJH!! He was the perfect combination of Joey's charm and Arthur's average Joe qualities. Stephanie Kaye can eat sh!t, though.

I loved Yick Yu because he was Asian and that was representation for me. I liked his friendship with Arthur -- the original JT and Toby. I was sad when Yick became a pot smoker and wasn't friends with Arthur anymore though.

Siluck Saysanasy (the actor) was involved with the early years of Degrassi: TNG in some behind the scenes role working with the young cast. Yick also did make a brief appearance on screen on TNG as well. It's a pity Pat Mastroianni never wants to return as Joey anymore. Guess he is sick of being associated with the iconic role and typecast for all time? That's the rumor I read.

Glad there are no plans of ending the show! It's still as fresh and relevant as ever. It can run and run, just like Doctor Who and just like the soaps.

I got caught up in DTNG nostlagia and was looking at the mini webisodes they used to do. Did anyone else watch them?

AMS, do you remember the Party Ettiquete Rules where they FINALLY addressed Sean and Ellie, but he is so determined to get Emma back from Damian (I forgot about his irrelevant ass), that he brushes her off? :rolleyes:

I never saw any of the webisodes, unfortunately. I'm not surprised at all that they brushed off Sean/Ellie in favor of Sean/Emma. I never outright hated Sean/Emma, but I feel that he had much more growth and maturation with Ellie. They were on the same level, whereas Sean always seemed to be forcing himself to be a part of Emma's world.

I'll always love the fact that they kept going back to this, though:

Degrassi last Friday was totally surreal at the end, but I loved the focus on Eli.

Didn't like Mo and Jake's misogyny -- Katie didn't deserve that no matter what she did -- although it is sadly realistic.

I bought Connor and Jenna. We finally saw Luke again but still have no idea how he has reacted to Adam and his sister dating.

I can't believe Eli told Clare they needed time apart. After everything they've been through, I find it ungrateful and selfish. Nice use of history to have Mr. Simpson mention he was the student who found someone who committed suicide in the original Degrassi. The naked shower stuff was funny -- Degrassi knows how to mix light with dark well.

Glad the students got the garden back. I cared about Jake and Katie for once.

Funny how Luke conned his sister into thinking he had changed, and then right away he let Jenna know what his idea of a date was.

Still liking Connor and Jenna.

We *still* do not know what Becky's relationship is with her folks right now regarding Adam. When are they getting back to that story?

    • The Equalizer original series was not a big hit yet it became a movie franchise and got a reboot series. The Equalizer reboot lasted 5 seasons, so one season longer than the original series.
    • Today is Sean Freeman's birthday

      His social media/IMDb doesn't have his age but from some posts he's made, I'm guessing 1989 is his birth year.
    • Here's the timeline, as I recall it being published. The WGA strike was 5/2–9/27/2023 Annalynne McCord was announced as being hired in December 2023, for a one-year contract https://deadline.com/2024/06/days-of-our-lives-when-to-expect-annalynne-mccord-peacock-1235975806/ RonC's first scripts back from the strike began airing May 31, 2024 (around Konstantine & Maggie's wedding) https://www.tvinsider.com/1137709/days-of-our-lives-writers-return-15000th-episode-storylines/ Her first air date was June 19th 2024. The actress has said she was not told who she would be playing until she started taping. RonC 's replacements were announced July 2024, with his scripts airing through April 2025 Side note: DAYS social media team seems to be playing fast and loose with BTS videos, in terms of how far in advance they film content (e.g. their April Fools' Joke videos were clearly not filmed on 4/1/25), so we shouldn't assume anyone's current status, versus those who were there nine months ago.
    • April and her husband (Draper) are the "young leads" who tie all the storyline threads together.  They're normally in the center of the action.  In this particular storyline, Draper is the attorney who represents Paige Madison.  (The district attorney, Logan Swift, has given Paige Madison "temporary immunity from prosecution" if she will lead the police to the members of the Tobias Gang who stole the firearms.  But Paige mainly just ducks bullets from various gang members who pop-up to assassinate her.)    
    • It's one thing to post about a soap's rumors or gossip, which in point of fact we've all done. It's another to present yourself as the inside source who knows something to be fact that's about to break wide, then backtrack and call it just Twitter speculation. Between those two extreme poles you have to commit to one or the other. If I got something wrong, I'd say it. (Nor would I keep playing insider after what I pulled with Drake Hogestyn, which should've gotten someone permanently banned.) And regardless, you don't open with this 'news' you don't actually want to stand by yet by mocking DRW's extremely valid concerns re: how the Trina character and Tabyana Ali has been marginalized and put out to virtual pasture ever since the day NAC left. Her playing out her current contract in a C-storyline with Kai does not change that.
    • Yeah, I thought it would be more explosive or heated and it was kind of standard.  Both can do more with the material.  I just don't think the writing was there.
    • Daphnée and TMG are on Instagram live (as we speak) and are saying they don’t know why Maurice left.
    • Anita let SilkPress know what time it was!
    • Kat vs. Eva and Anita vs. Leslie were today's highlights.
