918 – In Your Eyes:  A
Riley coming out to someone outside of his inner circle is kind of a big deal. [Click here for the episode review]


919 – Keep on Loving You:  C+
The creators were looking too far ahead to Degrassi Takes Manhattan to put any effort into this disappointing filler episode. [Click here for the episode review]


920/921/922/923 – Degrassi Takes Manhattan: B+
Any flaws in the story are overcome by strong acting and a heavy dose of Spinner.

  1. I agree with everything except the ‘Holiday Road’ episode. I actually liked that episode and I think it showed that Emma was finally gonna get her life on track and do what she wants to do.

    I totally agree with the Mia finally leaving part, though. I didn’t mind her character but the final episodes she was in were kind of disappointing. They just talked about modeling and nothing else. lol

    I enjoyed seeing how the season ended but isn’t Degrassi Takes Manhattan part of the Boiling Point?

    1. Yeah, but keep in mind that it was the season finale, which is the reason why the first week of the Boiling Point had new episodes on every weekday, including Friday.

  5. Season 9 was a step up from season 8 i give them that..more mediocre storylines and a couple of new people spice it up all the time..but this & season 8 cant compare to Season 10, Season 10 so far has been amazing and what ive been waiting for!
