  • @SmileOrBeDead - You're right, they didn't have makeup artists. The kids did their own hair and makeup to make it seem more real.

    Also, the female security guard in the episode is my boyfriends cousin lol.

  • @fisteberg you act like this was a REAL story when it wasnt its just tv and in character she is 14 at 14 you think your grown up and mature so you do dont do very smart things. Your brain isnt fully developed until your 22 or 21

  • @JayJayLong411 I know but in real life some teens act like this!!and it is a show made to prevent them from being too provocative.Even at 14 a girl can be raped and provoke the lust in a man!and everyone can leave comments here;so....i am allowed to.

  • use to shop in Towers when I was young, best toy selection ever. Thundercats 4life

  • LOL when you realize they shot a scene that's like seven minutes away from your house.

  • at 19:11...there's a video clip by simply red or someone,that I was reminded of from this scene,right?

  • this is the first video that you can comment in the series.

  • Why are like all the people on this show butt ugly

  • @992kirky It's an old show, they probably didn't have good makeup artists back then. 

  • I love when Canadians say "sorry"

  • Lol. In the 80s.. The clothes sizes were "petite"?!

  • @sportyio3 In Canada, they speak French. Petite means small (feminine form) in French.

  • @SahraHedgehog and English LOL

  • LMFAO xD A Phone Booth!

    I've started to get into so much of these Old School Degrassi eps, im addicted :)

    Funny..I dunno if im supposed to think that Steph is just a downright bitch!

    She acts like one all the time at school, even in front of her only brother while theyre at school!

    Thats just cold, but I've never really liked her -_-

  • Far out, I havent seen a phone booth in years

  • That teacher totally looks like a human version of Chuckie's dad from the Rugrats! LOL! Chaz Finster!

  • Comment removed

  • @fisteberg outfits reflect the age. if thats age of the person or the time period. i do agree though, they do get a bit risque

  • Forget the ugly and creepy Damon King! Sargent Steeles is the good-looking one! I'd take him any day!

  • I always watch this at school and ALWAYS sing the theme song XD IT LOVE DEGRASSI

  • Sargent Steeles is also the only adult in this entire episode who shows any real concern and compassion. He's stern, as he has to be in his job, but also gentle. He obviously didn't want to charge Lucy, he was dreading it. But he knew it had to be done. Having dealt with her before, I think he knew that her parents were never around. I think he had sympathy for her. Pretty good actor, one of the better ones to have portrayed cops on the show.

  • Lucy, just cuz yur canadian and coloured doesnt mean youre stupid. wait.

  • What year was this series made?

  • @HarryPotter87 they are mocking the show

  • In the episode where Snake and Spike get hitched, and the black women. Who was with Caitlin and Spike, is that Lucy?

  • Hey do you know that the lady who plays the Security Head is Mitra Sen who works behind the Scenes on The Show. She also played a Clerk at The Pharmacy when Joey went and brought some Condoms. She Wrote a Book about one of the Degrassi Characters and she originates from Trinidad.

  • Hey guys, I just had a thought. If Lucy got a criminal record how was she able to get a Scholarship or did they erase the Record after she did so well in Community Service.

  • they should start showing degrassi junior high and degrassi high on teennick! :D

  • I've been watching these all night i'm going to be so tired for school

  • I wonder why they didn't disable the comments for this one...

  • Voula's Parents dont look happy... after getting a phone call telling them their precious daughter has been picked up for shoplifting..

  • @angelgirl7473 Voula's parents are very strict but in comparison they know how to keep their daughter in line. Think of all the Freedom Joey has. Now can you imagine if Joey spent a week with Voula's Family and Voula went to stay with Joey's for a week.

  • @laminage lol at least Voula didnt end up Pregnant .. her father would have hung shane

  • @angelgirl7473 Yeah, he would have went crazy. However, I don't think that the People who played Voula's Parents were Greek in Real Life. I think one was Russian and the Other may have been Jewish who may have been Method Actors or something.

  • @laminage Yeah but he wasnt bad looking.. lol

  • a spelling test worth 10 % of the final grade thats a little to0 much

  • Wow! Reading some comments, u people do understand this was just a television show, these kids are only acting!

  • If you listen closely when Lucy's on the phone with her Mom, that's the chick who plays Spike's mother doing the voice - would know that petite little voice anywhere!

  • @westwass yeah she's played a few characters over the years

  • dont they have like a dresscode!?

  • Jeesh it bugs me on this show how when the teachers want to see the kids after class b/c they know something is wrong (like Lucy here, and Steph in "Dog Days" and Snake in "He Ain't Heavy" when he almost got into a fight) and ask them if everything is alright and the students deny there is a problem. DJH is supposed to be educational. I know teens are seecretive but I think the show should teach teens how to bring their probs out in the open. In "Rumor Has It", Caitlin does talk to Ms. Avery.

  • Lolz! "I'm 14!" o_O oh shit!

  • @TheFantasticals

    lol wat about it ????

  • 17:50

    That's subtle...

  • That spelling test was not hard at all.

  • Doesn't the bemulleted Damon King have eyes in his head? Steph may dress 16, but really, a 16-year-old with a missing tooth? Give me a break!! I guess he was too busy looking up her skirt or down her top to notice she didn't even have all her permanent teeth in yet LOL. When he found out she was only 14 he took off like a bat outta hell!

  • @blanchefful Stephanie dresses like a skank and had the big crush on him. Heather had a bad feeling about it and was right. Damon King was a total creeper. Wouldn't you take off if you found out her real age?

  • @canucktheclown Yeah Heather was the wise one, the other 2 were idiots. Damon King would have been charged with Statitory Rape...even if she were 16.

  • Goes to show you that kids will steal even if they have money. And money cannot take the place of parental love and presence. Lucy's parents were absent a lot and that is what she needed the most...

  • . . .Is it just me or was that police man hotter than the soap star? lol

  • @Sammyhaa , it's not just you - he's way hotter! The actor's name is Tim Progosh. He's worked mostly in television - his roles in film are usually small with a few lines but he's guest-starred on shows like The X-Files, Cold Squad and Relic Hunter. He's also a writer and producer, and he has degrees in Drama and Politics. There are a few recent photos of him on IMDB and he still looks pretty good. This was his first appearance on television. And he's very good in this role.

  • Funny how grown ups like Raditch and her teachers don't bat an eye at Steph's "whore"-drobe with the exception of Doris. That is unrealistic but I guess it wouldn't be a show if they stopped her from wearing those things...dressing like this is like inviting trouble but does she learn? I won't spoil it for you...

  • That's the best looking soap star they can find? Good lord.

  • @MsSilentsiren

    lol y is he ugly ?

  • Voula is so understanding, a kind of friend i want...

  • wth what season is this, is this season 4!!!!!

  • @tlicho86 the original degrassi when snake,spike,etc were kids.

  • @AnubisWatcher321 Actually, the first degrassi was in 1979, but you probably know that by now.

  • @tlicho86 no its the 1st

  • ew that guy on the show is a creeper

  • i love weels face at 3:48

  • gotta love Voula's father "See what we Have here.."!? 

  • Gotta love the 80s(:

  • Stephanie is really lucky that something worse didn't happen to her with that perverted man. I wonder how many times things like that happen to young girls, they go off with a celebrity figure and they end up getting assaulted. Sad, really sad...

  • @avonee1976 Steph deserved a lesson.SHe lies all the time about her age,dresses like a whore is naive,she lied to Damon!she will learn!!

  • Wow. Didn't they have braces in the 80's? Sorry if they didn't... but Steph's teeth are gross!

  • @reareacuppycakeful she looks like a junkie

  • @shelzo exactly what i was thinking

  • i love the 80's !

  • Lucky is lonely :/ I feel bad for her.

  • is there a season 2?

  • @madfreerealmslover The episodes Eggbert to Pass Tense are the ones in season 2. They were just added to the season 1 list.

  • Is that a Zellers they were shoplifting at?

  • @Cannibalization , in the credits they listed "Towers Department Store" so I'm assuming that was where it was filmed.

  • for goodness sake steph dresses like a slut. and shes supposed to be the most popular girl in school? so whos the most popular girl in school in degrassi the next generation? lol

  • @TheJustineWho Lol i know right. maybe Emma? Emma doesn't dress like a slut though.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheJustineWho ANd the man is maybe a pervert but couln't guess Stef's age.He's forgivable in my opinion.

  • Comment removed

  • haha i love how wheels takes a peek at heathers test score xD. wheels is awesome

  • @rainlova000000000001 no, its about teenage drama that alot can relate to, lets not get ignorant now. calm down degrassi jr high and high was just a regular show with regular drama just like any other show, seriously you people act as if it were a work of art or something.

  • @dikeemu It was one of the first in it's time. Before 90210, Dawson's Creek, etc. so it does have a legacy. Also, this has influenced may people, on a personal level. Personally, i think you should be a little more respectful for people's appreciation towards this because you don't know them, but that's my opinion.

  • @PeanutButtaCrackaa i understand that and i am respectful towards people's appreciation for this but its not a work of poetic art, that's my opinion, alot of other shows have the same affect on people, not just this, personally i didnt really care for your opinion or needed it but thanks for trying anyway. it's not going to change my perception. this is how i feel about it, people praising this show is kind of brings down the new generation, and in my opinion i feel that thats not fair.

  • @dikeemu well thank you for understanding my opinion, and that's YOUR opinion, just like mine. and yes, there are other shows but if you didn't notice this is a DEGRASSI video, so people will be talking about DEGRASSI, not the other episodes. How many shows do you remember from the 70s and 80s touching all the teen issues? and it's great to watch because teens still have those SAME issues today and can relate to it, plus it's not so fake, as many shows today, so it's relatable.

  • @dikeemu you did need it because you aren't looking at both sides, and i'm giving you a reason "why i look at it as a work of art or something". Your comment was irrelevant, unneeded, even troll-like, but i thought you needed someone to explain to you why. I love the new generation also, but i love watching this too. If you don't like the classic degrassi, then watch your next generation videos and don't put people down for appreciating it. You can have your opinion, but putting it down? really?

  • @PeanutButtaCrackaa i am looking at both sides. and its ok if you think my comment was uneeded but its an opinion and i have the right to state one i love this degrassi and the old degrassi, and im not putting anyone down, if you were personally insulted over a tv show then thats fine but it seems like your the only one complaining about what i said, no one else gives a flying fuck, i have freedom of speech. im not putting anyone down except for you lol so your only speaking for yourself.

  • @dikeemu actually you really aren't when you say " i don't know why you people act like it's a work of art",just sayin. and it was unneeded, that doesn't mean you can't state your opinion but it's nice you assumed and twisted words. and i'm complaining? hahahha have you even seen your comments? i think you should check yourself before pointing fingers ;) and putting someone down over the internet? how old are we, 5? i never put you down or could care because unlike you, i have a life. kthanksbai

  • @PeanutButtaCrackaa i did check my comments, check yours and lets see who's bitching more me or you? lol and i have a life clearly you don't because you keep responding, im not putting anyone down, you seem like the only one offended since you keep continuing to argue with me over a tv show, thats kind of childish don't you think? and stop trying to insult me to make your pointless debate look better, oldest trick, you have your opinion and i have mine, the matter is dropped, good day.

  • @dikeemu I checked twice and you still seem like a bitch, and i responded in like 3 weeks, you respond EVERY time i check back to my youtube. Soo, you kind of contradicted yourself there ;) And i'm "arguing" because you had a very one sided comment, which i keep having to tell you since you have the mentality of a 12 year old. Don't flatter yourself, you haven't even see me insult ;) And i have my opinion too but you consider that "arguing". You have doublestandards and no taste. bye

  • @PeanutButtaCrackaa that was hilarious lol and ok bye stop responding.

  • @dikeemu hehe thanks and i can stop whenever i choose xoxo

  • What happened to Voula, Shes not in Degrassi high?

  • @stephaniepaguio She left after the first season of Degrassi Junior High

  • @HelloDisasters But why? Do you know where they still play these shows, ?

  • @stephaniepaguio Not sure. From what I'm aware they don't play this show on tv anymore. But all the season are on iTunes.

  • Spike is my favorite actress in Degrassi, I don't know why she isn't that famous in America, well ofcourse because their canadian but, she should make SO many more movies.

  • Thumps up if you think they should still play degrassi junior high episodes and Degrassi high!

  • @stephaniepaguio Damn straight

    

  • @mcrxx202 yeah! I miss them!

  • "I'm self-sufficient" lol aw... poor lucy...

    I grew up in a house like that. I used to call my grandmother and ask her to come over. Kids were so jealous of how my parents completely neglected us while they sat home surrounded by human beings.. their attitude drove me crazy..

  • I like how Voula is so calm during this whole situation hahaha

  • I'm hooked on this now LUV IT!!

  • wow. sometimes i wonder who writes the scripts! GOSH

  • i face-palmed at "A DATE- TONIGHT!" ugh.

  • I love Degrassi!! :D

  • 9:56 - Okay, that sentence seems a bit redundant.

  • 1:40 - What's fascist about asking a student for an after-class word?

  • no it didnt

    degrassi junior high began in 1987 and ended in 1989 then degrassi high started from 1990 to 1993

    then in the same year they gave school's out a movie

  • @08babymonster Google Kids On Degrassi Street, that's what I was referring to :) the person replying to me asked about KODS.

  • there were 3 seasons of degrassi jr high and then it went on to degarssi high .dont know how many seasons it did but my library had all the dvds so i've seen every episode.the one episode i remember the most was where caitlin was at a sleep over and had an epileptic seizeire on the floor.suprised the have full episodes .great to see this after so many years back in the eighties.

  • 3:02 Why are Joey and Weels acting gay?

  • gosh i love those leopard pants to death...lol i know...but i just cant help it.

  • @TheNocturneMoon LOL I had a pair of leopard pants!! My mom got them for me and let me wear them in private school for 7th grade, but changed her mind in 8th grade when I went to public school for some odd reason. I guess they were too wild for public school (in the states they are conservative unlike Degrassi in Canada). I was mad as Donald Duck!! Or maybe because the kids were snobs at public school and she didn't want me to be teased..IDK but it sucked cause I liked the heck outta them.

  • shane loves soaps...

  • Degrassi was the only thing that made junior high Health class bearable.

  • ugh that damon guy made me vomit!

  • finally ppl are able to comment on these videos

  • omgomgomgomgomgomg mr simpson is liek a child <3333333333 and omgomgomgomgomg turns out emma was the first of the next generation to be on the show....but she was only a fetus

  • I love the old Degrassi! I love these characters way more than anyone on DTNG. I was born in the 90s, but I wish I could have lived in the 80s. I even love the crazy fashion.

    Yeah, outside of Caitlin and Steph(without the whore makeup), they aren't as attractive as the new cast. But they were far more real and interesting.

  • Degrassi will live on forever! Even though I don't like the new cast on DTNG. Oh there's also a series before Degrassi Junior High called Kids On Degrassi Street...it has Wheels, Alex, Caitlin, Suzie and a few others as little kids with different names though.

  • @JonasBrosFan17 i swear degrassi just keeps going back and back and back

  • @JonasBrosFan17 what year did kids on degrassi start and how many years did it go on

  • @wwfls4 It began in 1979 and went to 1984.

  • @JonasBrosFan17 o. how many seosons does it have? how many episodes in total? btw how many seosons does junipr high have cuz i can only find seoson 1. and wats after junior high?

  • @wwfls4 IMDB says "unknown" seasons for KODS. Degrassi Junior High had 3 seasons....right after DJH is Degrassi High. You can find all the episodes of KODS, DJH, and DH here on Youtube. Just Google the episodes and follow the list here on Youtube. :)

  • @JonasBrosFan17

    ni idnt it began in 1987 and finished in 1989

    then degrassi high started the sam year and ended 1992

    theb the movie school's out was made right after

  • no like i need the number like episode 26 27 28 40 like that

  • Why are they all so ugly?

  • @xKirbyxx They aren't ugly, they're realistic. I don't know about you, but no one in my school looked as perfect as the kids in the new episodes.

  • steph always wears the same thing over and over. :P

  • @ashleybherring

    she doesnt

  • @ashleybherring so does spike

  • @ashleybherring A lot of the characters do. Her brother Arthur wears that Cubs shirt a lot, too. I wonder if it's due to the budget of the show.
