What is that aboot?

Good God everyone involed has jumped the shark, eh? From MTV News:
"Alanis Morissette will teach you how to be Canadian in a few easy steps when she appears in an upcoming episode of the Great White North's teen soap opera 'Degrassi: The Next Generation.' Morissette will make a cameo during a three-episode storyline in which Kevin Smith (as himself) visits Degrassi while doing research for a 'Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back' sequel titled 'Jay and Silent Bob Go Canadian, Eh?,' according to The Ottawa Sun. The singer will play Degrassi's principal in the story-within-a-story, and will spend the episode throwing out an obscene number of Canadian stereotypes, including references to the metric system and the notion that Canadians say 'aboot' instead of 'about.' The episode will air Stateside on the N channel during the next season of the show, which starts February 18."

You know, I hope it comes out that Alanis is actually Trashley's Real Mom and the two of them disappear into the tundra together with their collectively stupid hair. And quite frankly, they couldn't think of something better to do with Kevin Smith than have him come and be Kevin Smith? Can't he have an affair with Snake or something? Sheesh. Canadians. (This anonymous thing is so, so non-confrontational by the way. How refreshing. Sincerely, Marcella)

Oooh oooh, I hope Alanis is all god-like รก la that crap god Kevin Smith movie, and then she can make Jimmy not a paraplegic and fix Spinner's hair and take Emma's ravineohrea away and basically restore Degrassi back to pure Canadian blissfulness. Oh, and Kevin Smith could, you know, NOT be in Degrassiland.

PS. Anonymity sucks!

Yeah, you know, I can get over Alanis showing up. That's fine. I'm down with Nayiri's Alanis-reprising-her-role-as-G-d-concept or Marcella's get-lost-on-the-tundra storyline. Perfect. They work. But Kevin Smith? Under the pretense of this shitty fake movie? And for three episodes? No. I can't do it. I put my foot down.

This is an amazing teen drama that should be recommended watching for all teens.There's a lot to like about this show.I absolutely love this show.i also watch this show online and also download degrassi the next generation episodes It's so real, and so easy to relate to, it's a great show for teens. The acting is sometimes less than impressive, but the story compensates for it. It's a great show
