Love...lies...and betrayal...Degrassi's back April 2nd on TeenNick.

FINALLY!!!!!!!!

It’s about time someone in the magical world of Degrassiland got off their butt and told us SOMETHING about Degrassi this Spring.

Degrassi officially returns to TeenNick on Friday, April 2nd at 9pm ET.  They’ll pick up where they left off with “Heart Like Mine.” Now I don’t know yet if they’ll just air the rest of Season 9 straight through, or if they’re going to air maybe 4 or 5 episodes then take another break…we’ll have to see.

There’s also a brand new mini on the way titled “Good Times.” I’m only gonna give you a few of hints about it since it’s not out yet:

*it involves Jane, the Studz and a few others
*it’s broken into 4 parts….it’s edited way, WAY better than the last several minis, so each part doesn’t end awkwardly
*it was so random…the show pokes fun at itself and i laughed myself to tears

*****************

Now as of writing this (3/4/10), there’s STILL no word on when Degrassi will start back up on CTV.  I knew Degrassi wouldn’t be back until March 14th at the earliest (because the Oscars are this Sunday), but Degrassi isn’t listed on the CTV schedule for the 14th either.  Now the earliest Degrassi will be back on CTV is the 21st, and I’m not so sure if they’ll do that either…until they say otherwise, I’m just going to assume CTV won’t bring back Degrassi until April.

On one final note, next is a big week: The Exec makes his official announcement! Yes we already know Season 10 is going to have 48 episodes, but I’m hoping that The Exec will have much more Degrassi news in store for us than just that.

    FINALLY!

    Damn this is what I really hate about Degrassi… the effin’ long breaks -_-
    Well, that’s over :P

    I really hope Teenick airs the rest of the episodes, with one each week, since the movie will be in June(?).

    I hope the big surprise isn’t something totally lame either.
    the 48 episodes thing will be hard to top!

  4. Um… Kary? Where did you fine this at??? Anyway, I’ve got some rather breaking news as well. 1: Ray Ablay shaved his beard. And 2? Have you been to Argy’s twitter lately? Around 23 hours ago, he confirmed that Riley? IS In Season 10. And guess what? He also tweeted that EVERY EPISODE WILL BE A TWO-PARTER, SO DESPITE NOT BEING HOUR-LONG EPISODES, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH 48 EPISODES WILL AIR IN 24 ONE-HOUR BLOCKS!!!

  6. Alright, that’s great news! I’m very excited about this! Although Hearts Like Mine was a great two episodes, I still cringe at certain parts of it.
    Stephen Stohn tweeted that Degrassi would return to CTV in March, or at least he thinks, so let’s hope it’s maybe the last Sunday of the month? And I’m excited for his BIG announcement too!
    How do hear about these minis Kary? Do you know someone on the inside? It still puzzles me. But I still appreciate you sharing the news with us.

  7. In the picture Anya looks pissed; Sav probably cheats on her with his arranged wife. I just want to give her a BIG hug. Also I hope that part of the announcement for next week is that Degrassi will be rated 14 or MA. If teens in England can handle the TV Show Skins, then teens in America and Canada should be able to handle cussing, strong violence, and nudity(not just because I want to see those things, but if Degrassi is “about to get real” then those things would make it much more realistic).

    I hate to say it but the long breaks are making me forget about Degrassi. I cant even find any decent spoilers anymore. And the only reason I got a twitter was to watch you post updates! So I just wanted to say thanks for doing the hard work and letting me rediscover my love for degrassi through your site and twitter. :D

  9. Yeah, and if this school is even gonna come close to getting wild, they’re going to have to up the anti at some point. So, Kary, you’re saying this should be airing tomorrow on Teennick? Does this mean you haven’t seen it yet? Btw, the Degrassi Goes Hollywood premiere took place an entire month after the movie actually premiered(which is odd), so Stephen Stohn pretty much implied that DTM will be taking place in June, with it’s premiere taking place in July. And speaking of which: Doesn’t the entire cast attend those things?

  11. Um, Anya looks anything but pissed, lols. She looks like a clown. And Holly J. Looks like she’s ready to feed on Declan. Yes. Literally feed on. And the way those pics are arranged, they’re probably all from Why Can’t This Be Love? And they won’t take a break. That’s for sure. Stefan said early summer for Season 10, looking back, DTM probably will air in July, I tried to edit the wikipedia page. Proof. It’s been locked until April 24th. And Heart Like Mine, Parts One and Two are supposed to air two different weeks on Teennick. This could just be me, but when they first aired Love Games, it was like watching an episode on The Click. HOPE HTL isn’t the same way.

Im not sure where the Declan/Holly J thing is from. But Holly J asks Declan if he loves her and he says something about it not being that simple.

    I doubt that Claire and Declan will hookup cause they haven’t even really had any social interaction with each other. My guess is that once Jenna steals KC away from Claire she will try getting with Declan to make KC jealous. Then Holly J sees them together and also gets jealous so she asks Declan if he loves her or Claire.

Maybe they’ll show more than one on the night? But that doesn’t sound like Teennick. Or maybe they’ll start before April 2? Then they would say that. I’m so confused!

There is also a lot of different interpretations as to what little stints TeenNick is giving us in the commercials. Sav and Anya, Holly J and Declan, Clare and Declan… Lots of drama, as usual. I must admit, there is a lot going on here, but I’m just going to wait until it premiers on April 2nd. Oh yeah, and I really hated how they showed Love Games, and then just left us hanging. It was just to keep us happy until April. I am loving this new season; hopefully the new episodes are worth the wait.
