Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

tinyseam I've been a fan of Degrassi since 1987 so I know I'm dating myself. I'm defiantly out of the loop as to what this generation of teens talk about. I've seen the first few episodes of Degrassi: Next Class and I don't understand why this show has to jump into all the social issues of today (many of which are created to keep people stupid). Must every show have a gay character or two (or three)? Must there be a Muslim character but let's ignore other religions? Must race be talked about ad nauseam? Are these the only issues this generation deals with?I know this is a teen show and I probably have no business watching this. But it's getting tiring to see every friggen social issue being discussed right away.

Ana This has to be one of the most annoying things I have ever watched. The shows intentions were good, trying to teach young people about different social issues (which is the only reason I gave it two stars instead of one) but I mean COME ON THIS IS JUST CRINGEWORTHY. I just finished high school two years ago so I know what it looks like this day in age and I have never met a person there that comes even close to one of the characters in Degrassi Next Class. I mean they are so easily offended by basically everything and the way the creators try to teach you about social issues is just so in your face and obvious you only get annoyed. Try to be a little more subtle about it, you want someone to watch an episode and really think about it afterwards but in this show you can almost finish the characters sentences. That's how predictable it is!Also if you happen not to agree with the point of view of gays, Muslims, feminists or any other group of people you are immediately a horrible excuse for a human being. This is so wrong because teens should be able to develop their own perspective on such things without someone shoving political correctness down their throats like that. The show had a good idea and turned it into a complete mess which is a shame because Degrassi Next Generation was a cult classic and a lot of people (including me) grew up watching it. You won't find any trace of that good old Degrassi in this show.

Hendu116 This newest iteration of the long-running series brings with it a lot of the good (and a bit of the bad) of previous seasons. If you've ever enjoyed Degrassi or other teen dramas you'll likely find a lot to like about Next Class.Sure there's the cheese factor, but Degrassi has always been able to mostly overcome this by approaching things with a level of earnestness that's hard to not find charming, and Next Class is no different.The acting is certainly a mixed bag (part of the price of actually using teenagers to play teenagers), but there are several very good performances. Eric Osborn (Miles) and Spencer Macpherson (Hunter) in particular stand out.All in all, Degrassi has always been a show that knew what it was and mostly succeeded in what it set out to do. Things don't change with Next Class, and in some ways they even get better.

kittykatastraphie I have watched degrassi for a good chunk of my life and I was ecstatic when I found out Netflix was picking this up. I figured with Netflix backing them they would finally "go there". There were moments where they went there and moments where they fell flat. The best new character is definitely Esme. She is super toxic and trys to completely ruin Miles. I found myself excited to watch the parts with her in it.Zoe and Graces relationship is a roller coaster that had me on the edge of the seat. That was super well done degrassi style. I would definitely give this new series a chance.
