: 1) You aren't going to be in the pilot episode after all.
---True
: 2) All the new actors look like models, thus the show won't have the
"real" feel to it that the original show had since it used "normal" kids.
----Don't know
: 3) They ain't shooting in a real school or a real neighbourhood. The
sets are being built in an industrial park north of Toronto, again
destroying the "real" feel.
-----True
: 4) The show's being shot on video.
-----I thnk that's true
:
: It sounds like "Degrassi: The Next Generation" is going to be a lot more
like the awful "Fifteen" than the original.
--It's also being shot by Bruce McDonald.....a good Director...but someone
who has never seen a Degrassi episode
