Kyle over at Cable TV Talk has some news that TeenNick will now be premiering Degrassi Takes Manhattan on July 19th as opposed to July 16th as originally planned. Then, for the first week of season 10 (”The Boiling Point”), TeenNick will be airing the episodes Tuesday - Friday as opposed to Monday - Thursday. This means that TeenNick will be 1 day behind Much Music for the first week. However, by the 2nd week, TeenNick will be going back to the regular Monday - Thursday format and the two networks will be in sync.
Thoughts on this? It’s only 1 day behind Much Music, but it wont be as fun watching the premiere at separate times.
Schedules are up, and it looks like the last half of season 9 will continue on Much Music starting next week. Much is set to begin airing Degrassi again on Monday May 10th at 9pm ET. Of course, the question still was whether or not CTV would premiere the episode on Sunday May 9th, the way that they have in the past. A quick look at CTV’s schedule shows that Degrassi is not scheduled to air that week. Instead, CTV is airing Human Target in Degrassi’s old Sunday at 7 timeslot.
So it definitely looks like Degrassi will be airing exclusively on Much Music from now on. This is not only for season 10, but for the last unaired episodes of season 9 as well.
Next Friday TeenNick will premiere “Innocent When You Dream.” This episode has not aired in Canada so it is the first time we will be seeing it. Can’t wait!
According to Cable TV Talk, new episodes of Degrassi will be resuming in Canada next month. Episode 915 (”Why Can’t This Be Love”) is scheduled to air Monday, May 10th at 9pm on Much Music. As of right now, CTV’s schedule only goes until May 8th, so it’s unclear as to whether CTV will also be airing new episodes. But I’ll keep you posted! It will be nice to have Degrassi back for the Canadians.
Next Friday TeenNick will be airing “Heart Like Mine” - the big KC storyline this year. This episode aired on CTV last year, but if you haven’t already seen it you’re definitely going to want to tune in. It’s one of the best episodes this season so far.
Is everyone as excited for Friday as I am? It seems like forever since we last got a new episode! But this Friday TeenNick will premiere “Broken Promises.” This 1 hour special is actually episodes 915/916 “Why Can’t This Be Love Part 1&2″ combined. Can’t wait!
Finally the news we’ve been waiting to hear! We now know that Degrassi will return to TeenNick on:
April 2nd
No word yet on when Degrassi will be returning to CTV.
EDIT: You can now check out the promo in The Click (if you are American).
EDIT 2: You can also view it on Youtube now thanks to ACES
Skins is returning this week, Lost is returning next, but the question we all want to know is when will Degrassi be back???
As you all know, TeenNick will be airing “Waiting for a Girl Like You” and “Somebody” back-to-back on Friday Feb. 5th in a special called Love Games (Lady GaGa anyone?). But when will Degrassi be returning to CTV? And will TeenNick continue to air new episodes later next month?
According to TeenNick’s schedule, as of right now these are the only 2 new episodes to air in the month of February. On the CTV side of things, it doesn’t look like new episodes will start back up until at least the conclusion of the Winter Olympics. That is all we know about season 9 at this point.
However, Stefan has been tweeting some interesting information about season 10 lately. A while ago he said that season 10 will begin airing in the summer. We know already that shooting is set to begin this March. More recently he said: “For season 10 both networks are really gonna try keeping new Degrassi’s same day - same date!” So will both CTV and TeenNick be premiering season 10 in the summer? We will have to wait and see. There is also the New York Degrassi movie that has yet to air. Whatever the case, I’ll keep you posted!
The lovely people at ACESonline have TeenNick’s new Degrassi promo up on youtube. For those who are wondering, this “Love Games” special is the episodes “Waiting for a Girl Like You” and “Somebody” put together. It will most likely air Valentines Day weekend just like “Lost in Love” last year.
