Theatrical Release Information  |  See Details About All Versions

Most of the familiar DeGrassi Junior High characters dutifully report for class as the series launches its second season. New to the cast this year are Cathy Keenan as Liz O'Rourke and Michael Carry as Simon Dexter. The season's 13 episodes are the traditional blend of sitcom hilarity and sobering dramatic reality, beginning with the episode in which Spike (Amanda Stepto) tries to adjust to her pregnancy, while Shane (Billy Parrott) reluctantly shoulders the responsibility of fatherhood. In subsequent storylines, Spike's friends rally around her when the PTA threatens to throw her out of school, Lucy (Anais Granofsky) agonizes over reporting the substitute teacher who touched her inappropriately, rumors fly that new student Liz "puts out," Melanie (Sara Ballingswell) suffers the consequences when she tells a lie to break a date with Yik (Siluck Saysanasy), Caitlin (Stacie Mistysin) finds out she has leprosy, Joey (Pat Mastroinni) learns the hard way that standing up to school bully Dwayne (Darrin Brown) won't solve anything, Kathleen (Rebecca Haines) can no longer deny her mom's alcoholism, Stephanie (Nicole Hoffman) is stuck in the middle of her parents' custody battle, and Erica (Angela Deiseach) worries that she's picked up mono from an older boy. Season two ends by resolving a plotline launched in season one as Spike goes into labor at a graduation dance. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
