Members BetterForgotten Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 Degrassi Reboot Cancelled at HBO Max 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 This was a dumb decision on HBO's part IMO. Degrassi has a strong following. This show would've mirrored what Euphoria does for HBO. I don't know what's going on with the streaming platforms as of late, but they are on a cancelling fury. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members carolineg Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 I am bummed, but no word for months makes it not surprising. I love Degrassi. I don't even hate Next Class lol. The characters were annoying, but the show is an easy no brainer. You just have Spinner/Emma's kid be the main character and set it up from there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 It's a shame, but Degrassi is immortal. It'll be back sooner or later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 Then that makes total sense. I don't know why these major studios even tried going into streaming platforms. As TLC said, "Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to." Have y'all also heard of rumblings that NBC might be pulling back from Peacock too? I heard it on Twitter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 (edited) It wouldn't shock me. Which is why I still think their much-hailed new Friday the 13th series from Bryan Fuller will end up vaporware, though it sounds very promising. (It always does when Fuller talks up a project he then either quits or watches get cancelled in pre-production, not that that's always his fault.) I can't see them throwing that kind of huge weight behind anything on Peacock if this downward slide continues for them. It's Discovery that is ripping HBO Max apart, having just bought up WB. It's a fire sale and they're callously pillaging both the film and TV libraries - dumping original streaming series without warning, etc. - just to keep the company together after inheriting a ton of debt. Discovery is reality TV/home improvement guys who don't see the value in Max. So Degrassi (among other prospective TV/film projects that pre-dated their merger) getting caught up in that purge doesn't shock me. But Degrassi as a property will outlive this messy Discovery merger, somewhere on some platform. Edited November 4, 2022 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 (edited) (re: Peacock) I mean they canceled Saved by the Bell despite the show being received well by the audience. I don't have much hope that BelAir will last much longer either despite the great reception they have received too. (re: HBO/Discovery) Thank you for clarifying what is going on with them. Makes more sense. I do hope that Degrassi pops back up again. I hate that Netflix got rid of Degrassi Next Class as I actually liked that show.

Members Liberty City Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 Not surprised at all. The moment the HBO Max-Discovery Plus merger was announced, I knew that this reboot would be scrapped. While I'm sad, I'm also happy it was done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 4, 2022 Members Share Posted November 4, 2022 There's been a ton of big stories about it in the last couple months I encourage you to check out. David Zaslav and the new Discovery management have plopped a ton of Discovery 'flip this house', etc. reality content onto HBO Max and have been torching a number of original series that have no physical releases or alternate sources whatsoever, potentially rendering them lost media. All just to try to get tax writeoffs and untangle the massive debt they inherited from this merger. I don't see this union lasting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted November 6, 2022 Members Share Posted November 6, 2022 Lowkey, they need to cease allowing all of these big media conglomerates to merge. It truly does a disservice to everyone and ruins the brand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
