Claire Claire, I didn't know that they even made girls who looked like that anymore. She totally reminded me of the mousey girl in 3rd grade circa 1988 who got her big girl 4th grade haircut before school started ("OMG y'all, look at Lila! Go 'head Lila! lls") I think she's iffy as any sort of quasi-heroine/go-to girl. She's no Emma.

Speaking of hair, I agree that Riley (I promise I will try to remember his name now and not refer to him as Gay Greek :lol:) needs to cut that mop. There was a scene where he wasn't wearing a shirt with his hair and chest pubes all wet and frizzed, BARF. I'm surprised they cut Sav's Steven Cojocaru 'do, thought that would be his signature look.

And the thing is, Riley's hair was short all through S9, and he looked MUCH better. No clue why they let him grow it out again. IMO, Sav has always looked fine with both short and long hair.

:lol: at Lila! Claire is just...I don't know the word for it. It's suicide to go to some boards and say that you think Claire is boring. Because she's the only teenager on the show who acts like she's 35, she's automatically the best character in the history of Degrassi...ever. I've never known a Claire.

Wow, are you serious?? People not just like but LOVE Claire?? Hmm, well I guess she does represent a certain group of fans who aren't the 90210-type teen girls on the show. But she is so... yeah.

And I see that she's not with Bieber-haired dude anymore. He always reminded me of Marty from Joy Junction:

I love Holly J and Sav together, though don't understand how Holly J can make Sav believe he got a girl knocked up in one ep and then a few weeks later about to have sex with him in the music/dance room. Doesn't make sense. Riley needs to cut the mop, otherwise I like Zane. Drew totally could have been gay, but I do like him with Allie. Allie is my favorite character as I always side with the town bitch. Claire is a bore and Jenna is boring. I'll take a story with Drew/Allie/KC, thank you. Bianca is a cold hearted bitch, yes, but I don't like her that much, lol.

I love the Actor who plays Drew. The Actor playing Zane is alright, and I just think they need to get rid of the guy playing Riley and hire someone else!

LOL!

ITA...I also like Alli because she's a biotch, but she's also smart and has brains. A little on the trashy side sometimes, but she can also be vulnerable and sweet. She's my fave character right now.

When I watch Claire all I do is yawn so I'm surprised also that people like her! She became a little bit better once Eli came into the mix with her, but I still find her to be so bland. There is no edge to her at all for me.

I don't know if I should post the board name, but one board I post at semi-regularly is severely pro-Claire. I can sorta see why because everyone there sorta lets everyone's negative actions define them as characters, and of course, the worse thing Claire's done is let KC cheat off her math test. Ugh. I love Jenna simply because she got fuglyKC out from under Claire in the bitchiest way possible. It's unfortunate they made her boring in a quest to make her likable.

I'm not an Alli fan simply because she's dumb as rocks and annoying as hell.

Out of the current crop, I don't think I even have a favorite. I like the football guys, but they've been given little to do.

BTW, watching some re-runs right now from Fall 2009. Peter's drug storyline...wow IMO the actor did horribly with all of it!! I know Degrassi isn't know for it's stellar acting, LOL, but dang... And it seemed like such a rip-off from Craig's drug story from I think Season 6.

I loved the premiere and loved how all of the things Alli has done was brought up again, I thought all that stuff would be buried forever.

In case you guys didn't know Melinda Shankar (Alli) is leaving to film a show, the name escapes me right now, but she is coming back.

The Jenna story was kind of boring in this episode, hope it will get better.

This was better than anything from The Boiling Point.

As far as the little promo for the other episodes, all I can say is that I am shocked looks like a triangle with Drew/Fiona/Adam is on the horizon. Can't wait for that and Declan's return.

OMG! Is Melinda Shankar (Alli) off the show for good? sad.gif I hope not! I love her....I was shocked when Alli transferred schools! I hope this isn't the end of her story.

Great premiere...loving Jenna's story. LOL @ the Next Teen Idol stuff! So cheesy! But I like how it was handled. I'm glad they brough back K.C's mom, I thought we'd never see her again so I was pleasantly surprised. I think for sure Jenna will give the baby up for adoption, but who knows.

Claire...omg can someone shoot her?!

Right now I just saw the Fall promo....have to say I am not that excited. Lot's of WTF stuff in there that has me confused and angry. Maybe it will be different. Guess we'll see.

We posted at the same time...thanks for the info, I had no idea. I'm glad she's coming back!

    • Chelsea was doing the absolute most today! Why was she introducing her sister to a woman she doesnt know? That whole scene was embarrassing. Madison needs to stay away from her bc she is too immature
    • Gosh, what a waste with Lunacy. Why have her live with $B, reveal Finn, pardon her, etc What makes this story incredibly hollow is that what Luna is asking isn't unreasonable - to spend time with her cousin father. She's not asking to move in with them. How hard with it be for Finn to throw her a bone by, say, I'll meet you for lunch/coffee once at week at the hospital cafeteria. Lunacy isn't going to hurt Finn. In fact, all her crimes were related to finding her father and it turns out to be someone she's loved her entire life. Instead of course-correcting the nonsense of last summer, Brad somehow found a way to make this worse! That's a skill... Of all the younger actors B&B has cast during the past 5 years, LY has shown the most growth and range. Why get rid of her? 
    • On the subject of sets (seems more interesting to discuss than the actual show)  Some sets we don't see anymore Lauren/Michael apartment (haven't seen that in years) Victoria's house (are Marian/Tessa living there?) Apartment above Crimson Lights (I think Chelsea was the last resident) Penthouse (Lily's home) Chancellor Estate (Devon/Abby) Chancellor office (once Dark Horse) Nick's house GCAC room (used as residence/hotel room for several characters) Some of these may pop up again. The tack house,for example, was not seen for many months before being used again. Have I missed anything?
    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
    • Add Dr. Montgomery to list of fine women on this show! I hope the show goes forward with Madison/Chelsea and then once they're developed, bring back Allison, who is now divorced or a widow, for a Madison/Chelsea/Allison triangle.  It would definitely be the hottest triangle in daytime.  
    • I wonder if Linda Bloodworth-Thomason had Kim in mind for any of her other characters/series. If they intended Allison Sugarbaker (Julia Duffy's character) to be more in line with who Suzanne was/Delta Burke's portrayal-persona, then I think Kim would have aced that. Yes, it would have been odd, Kim having previously played a different character (from a different family), but Designing Women wouldn't have been the first show with that issue. Or maybe Kim could have played Beth Broderick's role on Hearts Afire. Or Patricia Heaton's role on Women of the House.
    • Sony is probably waiting until Y&R’s lease is up as well. All of TV City is going to be gutted, so they have to relocate at some point.
