<Another late reply, but oh well...>

I do know that Kevin Smith, the Claire Forlani caster, bought all of the
scripts and copywrights and stuff of all the Degrassi episodes, so that
shows how much he liked the show. I'm guessing that if he did watch PG,
he'd like it. Degrassi is kind of the mongrel brother of PG, in the way
that it is not quite up to scratch in both acting and storyline.

Ciao!
