In the news: Megan Follows guest stars on Heartland

From Bill Harris of Sun Media:

  • Dark heart: Megan Follows breaks character to play woman with a murky past in CBC drama
    “Megan Follows was asked how tough it is to play a character who has a secret. “I guess it depends on how good a liar you are,” Follows said in a conspiratorial tone. Well, this part is no lie: Follows has a two-episode guest-starring role on the CBC series Heartland, beginning today. She’s playing Ty’s mother Lily, who arrives in town unexpectedly with something to hide.” Read more.

d9_ep_911_912_10157 p.m. – DEGRASSI: THE NEXT GENERATION – “Heart Like Mine, Part 1” – ALL-NEW EPISODE

KC’s (Sam Earle) living the high school dream as the basketball team made it to the provincial finals and he finally has a mentor who gets him – Coach Carson (Damon Runyan, Cheaper by the Dozen 2). The only person raining on his parade is Clare (Aislynn Paul), and since they’ve been growing apart, KC’s really confused. Meanwhile, Marco’s (Adamo Ruggiero) back at Degrassi completing a teacher’s placement. When Holly J (Charlotte Arnold) begins to walk all over the “buddy teacher”, Marco struggles to be seen as the ultimate cool teacher – only to learn something about teacher-student boundaries.

7:30 p.m. – DEGRASSI: THE NEXT GENERATION – “Heart Like Mine, Part 2” – ALL-NEW EPISODE

With the final basketball game approaching, pressure is at an all-time high and Coach Carson has really taken KC (Sam Earle) under his wing. After spending some one-on-one time with Carson going over plays, KC begins to question if their relationship is inappropriate. Meanwhile, Declan (Landon Liboiron) has become Mr. High School – producing the musical, dating student council president Holly J (Charlotte Arnold) – and Fiona (Annie Clarke) can’t help but make fun of him. To Declan’s surprise, Fiona takes his advice to get involved and auditions for the musical. Sav (Raymond Ablack) and Anya (Samantha Munro) don’t think Fiona has the chops for it, but Declan won’t hear it. Will protecting Fiona only hurt her more in the long run?
