Degrassi is a Canadian made show that is on Noggin channel (kids channel by day, tweens by night). It used to be on PBS and still may be in some states but it drew a ton of criticism due to a lot of liberal content (aka gay/lesbian content) so lost its slot in many PBS networks. It's like a Beverly Hills 90210 kind of show only with a bigger cast (not just the 7 that somehow everything in school revolves around).
