“Degrassi” became popular with younger viewers by tackling issues that teenagers face every day. Issues such as teen pregnancy, abuse, drugs, alcohol, sexual orientation, bullying, self mutilation, dating violence, and school shootings took center stage on the series, and gave fans a look into the world of teen drama.
The “Degrassi” reunion will be streaming on Netflix starting July 22, the same day when “Degrassi: Next Class” premieres Season 2 on the streaming service.
