Personally, I watch Degrassi off and on. It's not because I don't like the show...but rather I didn't always have the channel that plays the show so I've missed random bits through the Next Generation. (I really need to get the DVD's). Anyway, I think it's great they are finally having a transgender character, which will hopefully raise more awareness and understanding. After all, they've already focused on girls and boys that are gay, lesbian, and bi. This is the next step and I think if anyone can make it work, it would be Degrassi. I can't wait to see Jordan in her new role.

One of the ways Degrassi has been promoting the new season is through these carnival themed commercials. There are two seperate ones that showcase some old and new characters, giving you a look into what might be happening with them this season. If you watch the one below, you will see the character of Adam, dressed as a boy, but seeing a girl in all the carnival mirrors. I think it's very interesting and a fun promo. Also, this video is the full promo...so it's both commercials together.
Discuss: Do you watch or will you start watching Degrassi? What are your thoughts about a transgender character? Comment as you will!

OMG! I'm soo behind on Degrassi I don't know what's going on! I can't believe that's little Lizzie! I do love Degrassi. They're never afraid to "go there".
I know, I was shocked to see it was her as well. I'm definitely glad they are a show that will deal with various types of people and issues. It's great, because it needs to be out there.
