Degrassi: School's In!
Eevee Pacini
Hello, fellow Panthers! My name is Eevee, and I'm a 25-year-old unapologetic fangirl and film/media grad. While I've been a huge Degrassi fan since grade school, I've never actually seen the original series (Degrassi Junior High + Degrassi High)! That's why I'm thrilled to introduce "Degrassi: School's In", where I plan to watch, analyze, and fan-theorize my way from "Kiss Me Steph" all the way to "School's Out" with the help of my friends and special guests! My upload schedule for regular episodes will be once a month, starting in September 2023!

It's Late with Degrassi Kid (PREVIEW!)
This is just a preview of my conversation with Degrassi Kid covering my FIRST EVER watch of the iconic Degrassi Junior High episode "It's Late"! Unfortunately after this part of the conversation, I started sharing my screen and Zoom recorded that instead of our faces (lesson learned!), so I figured I'd release this little bit of video that we have as a promo/preview of the (unfortunately just audio) episode to come -- SOON!!! Stay tuned for more Degrassi Super Fan content! Check us out here: https://linktr.ee/eeveepacini https://linktr.ee/degrassikid

Smokescreen with Craig Driscoll!
Have you ever wondered what happened to Rick Munro from Degrassi Junior High? Craig Driscoll, now a successful tattoo artist in California, stopped by Degrassi: School's In to chat with Eevee about the tenth episode of Degrassi Junior High, "Smokescreen", his experiences being on Degrassi for two seasons, and his life since! A brief episode synopsis of Smokescreen: Rick joins the environmental action committee to impress Caitlin. Meanwhile, Yick would rather make up a family history for a project than tell the class he is a Laotian immigrant. Eevee and Craig get to the bottom of important questions and topics such as: - How did Craig feel about the content of "Smokescreen" at the time of filming? - What does he remember about working with late director and Degrassi co-creator Kit Hood? - Would he ever attend a Degrassi convention or event? - Did he ever visit the set of Degrassi High after leaving the cast of Junior High? (spoiler: yes, and there's a great story!) - Would he eat a hamster? (spoiler: also yes, and...uhh... an interesting follow-up question) 😂

Nothing to Fear with Tom Melissis!
"School's In!" is back in session with a VERY special guest -- Degrassi's own Tom Melissis! Tom is best known for playing Mr. Perino in Degrassi: The Next Generation. However, he first appeared on the show in the '80s as Jeff, a young mechanic in LD's dad's shop, who was introduced in the episode we're talking about today, "Nothing To Fear" (Degrassi Junior High Season 1 Episode 8)! Enjoy over an hour of stories, goofs, and answers to questions you've been dying to know the answer to, such as... What was Toronto like in the '80s? Which cast members does Tom still keep up with? Why was Mr. Perino such a jerk that one time? What is Jeff the Mechanic's last name? (the answer is important and changes Degrassi history!) Stay tuned for the next episode, "What a Night", featuring Taylor Phillips coming soon!
