This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

This has to be one of the most annoying things I have ever watched. The shows intentions were good, trying to teach young people about different social issues (which is the only reason I gave it two stars instead of one) but I mean COME ON THIS IS JUST CRINGEWORTHY. I just finished high school two years ago so I know what it looks like this day in age and I have never met a person there that comes even close to one of the characters in Degrassi Next Class. I mean they are so easily offended by basically everything and the way the creators try to teach you about social issues is just so in your face and obvious you only get annoyed. Try to be a little more subtle about it, you want someone to watch an episode and really think about it afterwards but in this show you can almost finish the characters sentences. That's how predictable it is!Also if you happen not to agree with the point of view of gays, Muslims, feminists or any other group of people you are immediately a horrible excuse for a human being. This is so wrong because teens should be able to develop their own perspective on such things without someone shoving political correctness down their throats like that. The show had a good idea and turned it into a complete mess which is a shame because Degrassi Next Generation was a cult classic and a lot of people (including me) grew up watching it. You won't find any trace of that good old Degrassi in this show.

I loved Next Generation so I mainly tuned into the New Class for the "reunion" and because my younger sister asked me to watch it with her.To say I was disappointed is an understatement! I'm not an actor or a TV writer so I tend to try to stay away from talking too much about those things. But I have to this time. Some of the actors were great. Some were AWFUL. The writing? It was so predictable. There were times even I was able to finish the characters lines. It was corny too. It had a couple of what I call "Full House moments". (You remember- when Danny would talk to DJ or Stephanie and the music would start. Then we'd get the life lesson, a hug, and an apology.) Before, Degrassi would focus on a lot more characters too. I guess there's only so much you can do with 10 episodes.The reunion was OK. It was great seeing them- I just wish more had come back. Maybe I'm just spoiled from watching The Next Generation, I don't know. What I do know is that TNG students weren't perfect- and everything wasn't resolved quickly. Sometimes things weren't resolved at all and that was OK because high school (and life) is that way. Now, in The Next Class, everything is tied up with a big pink bow on it. It's more after school special than anything else and it's a shame.

It lost its soul.I didn't feel any emotions from any of the actors or any of the episodes.They stopped tackling the hardcore issues.I watched it hoping it would get better.The last episode it was going to redeem itself.They lost me.There was no major drama with the shooter.That kid is a good actor they all are.They are better then this show.They need new writers because the old ones have lost their touch.Also the Maya swatting and cyber bullying could of been taken so much further but it wasn't.The dance could of been more intense but it wasn't.The pill popping could of been more intense but it wasn't.They crammed as much as they could in 10 episodes and failed.I'm not even attached to any of the characters.They are stereotypical and over the top.It's so bad I don't even remember the new characters names.Only ones I remember is Tristan, Miles,Maya and Zig.They should try researching real teen drama like Skins first two seasons.Or I don't know talk to teens...

I have watched degrassi for a good chunk of my life and I was ecstatic when I found out Netflix was picking this up. I figured with Netflix backing them they would finally "go there". There were moments where they went there and moments where they fell flat. The best new character is definitely Esme. She is super toxic and trys to completely ruin Miles. I found myself excited to watch the parts with her in it.Zoe and Graces relationship is a roller coaster that had me on the edge of the seat. That was super well done degrassi style. I would definitely give this new series a chance.
