Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Created by Martin Gero between Degrassi seasons, this was his 'adult' follow-up that The CW buried in summer death slots. It pioneered the 'prestige teen soap' before Euphoria made it marketable.
Cassie Steele (Abby) was literally Manny Santos on Degrassi — this was her 'serious actress' reinvention, complete with actually learning to dance for the role.
