Everything about Degrassi, eh?

In the news: Degrassi Extra Credit panel

From Comic Book Resources:

  • NYCC XTRA: “Degrassi: Extra Credit” Panel Report
    “One fan in her twenties succinctly described the show as ‘Canadian middle and high-school melodrama.’ For many fans, however, it’s much more. Several were dressed in homemade shirts featuring iron-on pictures of their favorite stars and carried well-worn scrapbooks packed with magazine articles and personal letters to the characters. One young girl carried a detailed banner decorated with cut-outs, quotes and declarations of love.”

In the news: Little Mosque on the Prairie

From the Harvard Independent:

  • Praise Be to the CBC: Canadian comedy is the Little Mosque that could
    “[Canadian serials] pale in comparison to their American counterparts, with less professional sets  and actors, low budgets, and uninspiring concepts. These shows really are just  too Canadian: more humble, more honest, less glammed up, less catchy. They usually don’t sell. However, with Little Mosque on the Prairie, I think our  northern neighbors have finally found a concept that will change the way people think about Canadian television.”
