About a month ago, the network MuchMusic launched a social media program called “MuchCloser” on their website, MuchMusic.com. The program aims to reward fans who interact heavily on their website (via reading blogs, watching videos, leaving comments, etc) through a points/badge system…you rack up points that unlock badges that allow you access to exclusive content and special events/giveaways.
A recent press release from Much highlights Epitome Pictures partnering with them for this social media initiative, not just for the network overall, but to also provide an enhanced social media experience for Degrassi fans:
****************
To coincide with the launch of DEGRASSI’s upcoming twelfth season in July, MuchCloser will introduce tasks and missions specific to the show and its characters. Users can earn points and custom DEGRASSI rewards by watching show clips, sharing content, reading the blog, following characters on Twitter, and tuning into the show when it airs on Much. Users who engage with DEGRASSI content could earn the chance to be part of online chats with cast members, be the first to see exclusive content, and visit the set!
****************
Details on the Degrassi giveaways and the “missions” you’ll need to complete in order to win them will come as we get closer to the Season 12 premiere on Monday, July 16th.

The MuchCloser image looks like it has pogs all around the words, very nostalgic to me.

Kary, a while ago you said you think all degrassi fans should at one point write an analysis on a part of the show, so I decided to follow your advice today and write one on ‘Don’t Panic’, which is often referred to as one of the weakest episodes of season 11. If you wouldn’t mind, could you read it and tell me if it changes your mind about anything in the plot? Thanks! :) http://itfeelsgoodbeingbad.tumblr.com/post/24551934536/dont-panic-and-why-its-a-brilliant-addition-to
