So lately I’ve been asked a lot if I’m going to do videos for Now or Never like I did during The Boiling Point last year, and I’ve been reluctant to commit because these vids take quite a while to make (it’s more than just hitting the record button and talking into a camera for 5 minutes).
However, I think found a concept that makes the process a little easier and will make this year’s videos more interesting than last year’s.
This year’s web series is called “Degrassi Extra.” Tuesdays through Fridays during Now or Never I’ll post a video recapping the episode from the night before.
These videos will be RECAPS, not reviews (there’s a big difference). Since they’ll semi-humorous/sarcastic, I won’t be analyzing the plot or characters, and I won’t be giving grades in the videos….I’m leaving all that stuff for the written episode reviews.
WRITTEN REVIEWS: I’m sticking to the way I’ve been doing the written reviews for most of Season 10, which is review Part 1’s and 2’s together. That means I’ll post written reviews on Tuesdays and Thursdays (except for the first week of episode…there will be reviews on Monday-Thursday). And I’m 10,000% sure they’ll be shortened versions since I’ll have limited time to write them.

Degrassi Extra PREVIEW
Below is a preview episode of Degrassi Extra! I used Drop The World Part 2 as our lovely example of what to expect this summer.
Kary, you’ve always posted your favorite couples, characters and storylines and seasons… but what about some of your favorite quotes? That’s what I’d like to see.
My favorite line, hands down, is from Redemption Song when Jay says, “Come on, man, I was about to redefine bible-thumping.” in Season 5.
God, I miss him (and the awesomeness of Season 5) so much.

Sorry Kary But I don’t think Bianca’s White?_? If she whom you mean when you say “We will see WHITE GIRLS can dance.”
Becasue to me she looks Italian… What white girl has the Last name DeSousa! I guess that’s why they changed her character’s last name, which was supposed to be Reynolds.
Also the actress last name is Josipovic.
Therefore she’s not white! Or at least all white.

I’ll be honest I thought it was lame last year when people got excited for episodes like “Umbrella” or “99 Problems” even before we heard what they were about, just because they love the songs.
But lol I am excited to see what Mr. Brightside will be about. I love The Killers!

I’m guessing Anson is going to be shot by Drew after he tries to rape Bianca.

After reading that article, some part of me thinks it might be Bianca. I just feel like they eluded to the fact that Drew was going to die so much that it won’t be him.

Katie Matlin
No-nonsense over-achiever Katie runs her corner of the world. She’s tough, efficient, and capable in the classroom, on the field, and at the helm of the Degrassi Daily school paper. She’s not trying to step on people, but… if you’re in the way, you might want to move to the side for safety anyway. Katie works hard at managing her emotions — and sometimes she expects others to do the same.
