Degrassi Junior High: Season 01 (1987)

Theatrical Release Information  |  See Details About All Versions

The first episode of the first season of DeGrassi Junior High is seen through the eyes of Stephanie (Nicole Stoffman), newly admitted to the eighth grade. Before the episode is over, Stephanie has entered the race for student council, received her first kiss, and lost her best friend Voula (Niki Kemeny). The remaining 12 episodes maintain the opener's delicate balance of humor, heartbreak, airy whimsy, and harsh reality. In later stories, Stephanie gets drunk just before a school dance; Yick (Siluck Saysanasy) tries to find out if a teacher has it in for him by submitting another student's paper as his own; self-conscious Melanie (Sara Ballingall) demands to be her first bra; a rumor spreads that one of the teachers is gay; Wheels (Neil Hope) sets himself up for a crushing blow when he tries to bond with his biological father; and L.D. (Amanda Cook) is terrified that she may become an orphan. The most compelling of the first-season episodes is the one in which Spike (Amanda Stepto) finds out that she's pregnant...and that Shane (Billy Parrott) is the father. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
