I despise Degrasi.  That show really depicts the average life of a teenager.  NOT, it is all a played out lie, they do not depict normal teenagers at all, well, maybe some.  Like they might depiict the average drama freak, pop-icon, jenny jones-watching, moron.  But other than that, the show pretty much sucks at depicting real teenage life.  If I ever made a show, I would make it about what I think about!!!!!!  Not what other people think about.
