Boiling Points – Week 5

August 23, 2010 - 12:12 am 2 Comments

Hey there Degrassi fans! Guess who’s back and ready for the FINAL WEEK of Boiling Points! Sorry for being all MIA this week, had a fun-filled family vacation out in Orlando, Florida. You know, park hopping with Mickey, being a wizard in the new Harry Potter world, the usual. But I’m back and FINALLY caught up on this weeks episodes. What kind of timeshare complex doesn’t have a functioning wifi?!

Run-On Sentence Recap (because yeah, we need a refresher.)

So Jenna’s pregnant, like we really didn’t see that one coming, with KC being the baby daddy he’s all good and supportive until Jenna says she doesn’t want/can’t have an abortion because she’s already 5 months in which in turn KC gives her the shaft and basically leaves her alone which is basically what Connor is at the end of the day when LoveQueen16 turns out to be a huge fucking pervert which is what Anya becomes when she thinks of Dr. Chris whom Riley is also crushing on but that goes out the window when that asian sensation Zane comes into the picture and basically forgives him for his pigheadedness towards Owen all the while ECLARE IS BEING THE MOST BADASS COUPLE DEGRASSI’S EVER SEEN.

Eclare. Kiss. Oh. My. Fucking. God.

Heart. Attack.

I can’t even think of a time when there was this much hype over a Degrassi couple. Maybe since Palex? Semma always had a huge fanbase, but I think the Eclare camp might be trumping them all. I lovelovelove how this all played out this week. Clare finally finds the courage to be all “wtf Eli, do you like me or not?” and he basically drops the bomb that he killed his girlfriend Julie, after they got into a fight, stormed away on her bike angry, and got hit by a car. Eli is torn inside asking himself why he should get to be happy when he knows he indirectly caused the death of someone he loved.

The whole relationship is now taken on a totally different level. This didn’t happen years ago, it only happened a year ago. Who’s to say Eli is even ready for another girlfriend, but we already know that he just can’t help fight his feelings for Clare. It sucks that they’re not together at the end of the episode, but it just leaves room for so much potential for their relationship to grow into something great. Their relationship isn’t contrived or something to just be rushed into. I’d much rather writers take their time in having them be “official” to really solidify their relationship. I am SO SO SO excited to see what happens next to Eclare!

Jenna’s eggo is preggo.

Yup, Kenna would be that idiot couple that doesn’t use protection.

We can all thank Jessica Tyler for basically giving this one away. As if I didn’t like Jenna and KC enough, the fact that we knew the spoiler from not even reading spoilers makes me feel even less sympathetic than I should. I know I know, I’m a cold-hearted bitch. I did ALMOST feel bad for Jenna because KC is that much of a fucking prick to man up for his own mistakes. All the respect I had for KC, because they did introduce him to being the “bad-boy-but-not-really-that-bad”, has completely been tossed out the window. Fuck the idea of Klare getting back together, I thought they were really going to be my new Semma, but KC is the scum of the earth to me and I really hope that Clare doesn’t go anywhere NEAR KC anymore. Unless she tries to “save” him from the downward spiral he’s headed towards. Kudos to Sam Earle even though I hate his character now and I’m almost positive him and Jessica Tyler are dating in rl, he never fails to put on a good performance on KC’s angst.

Zane, you are my hero.

I don’t care you look like a character from Dragon Ball-Z, you are THE man.

Riley who? From my perspective, this week wasn’t about Riley. It was ALL about Zane. I love how he really challenges Riley to see the right instead of all the wrong that Riley does. I mean really, all of Riley’s reactions are nothing but destructive since day one. Zane is the perfect guy to finally straighten him out. Although, if I were Zane, I don’t think I’d give Riley so many chances as he has being that he was the target of bullying at Riley’s fault.

A good part of the storyline was Riley’s interactions with his VERY Greek mother. As if Marco and dealing with Italian families wasn’t bad enough, I think they did a good job in choosing another another culture where homosexuals are not welcome with the religion. I just wish he just did it and told his mother about it. Coming out to the parentals has been done before with Marco so I’m happy they’re not pushing that card into the spotlight.

Geeks will be.. well.. geeks!

Connor, oh Connor.. sometimes the smart kid ain’t so smart. Then again, having the social disease of Aspbergers can somewhat conflict with that. I had almost forgot that he even had it. LoveQueen16 is really fucking creepy though. I’m almost afraid that she’s going to come back and almost stalk poor Connor. I really hope not!

Wesley is really just that typical geek that every high school has. I love how he takes notes from Drew on how to be cool and he basically ends up being no help whatsoever. His crush on Anya is so painstakingly real on so many levels that you just can’t help but root for Wesley. And why the fuck does he have 2 casts on both arms?

The final week of Boiling Points is upon us! It’s going to be SUPER FUCKING HARD to deal with this over a month long hiatus from new episodes, let alone having an episode every week. Let’s make this one count, I know Degrassi won’t let us down. Till next time. <3

Boiling Points – Week 4

August 16, 2010 - 12:19 am No Comments

So we’re a month in kiddies and more than halfway done with Degrassi’s Boiling Points. I can’t believe how fast this is all going. By now we would have been about done with an entire season, and we’re only 4 weeks in. Oh Degrassi, what will you think of next?

This week was pretty much epic. I’ve seen every episode for 10 seasons and besides the school shooting episode, My Body is a Cage pt 2 was definitely one of the best and most intense episode ever. Seriously, it takes a lot to impress me other than just entertainment value, and Degrassi really went above and beyond that.

Run-On Sentence Recap (because yeah, we need a refresher.)

Alli and Drew are hooking up only because both did a complete 180 at the exact same time while Holly J and Sav are hooking up for shits and giggles which would break poor little Anya’s heart if she ever found out but she has bigger fish to fry when she finds out that her mom has cancer, Connor is hooking up or wants to hook up with his online gaming girlfriend.. or womanfriend as Dave calls her and Adam is pretty much the best character this show has ever seen.

Adam haz boobies!


Those perfectly shaped eyebrows don’t lie

I can’t even describe what an amazing episode I thought this was. Jordon Todosey is ABSOLULEY perfect in her role here. You can feel the different range of emotions a teenager dealing with this issue, and it almost breaks your heart to see just how cruel and ignorant people can be. Bianca, Fitz, and that other white trash kid, makes all other regular bullies look like fucking Barney. While Clare and Eli in this episode show us, clear as day, why everyone loves these two characters so much (as individual, stand-alone characters! not just together). But what made the waterwork go down was when you can see how much Adam’s mom didn’t want a son, but her daughter. Really though? You have a healthy, happy in his own skin child. Makes me want to SLAP Adam’s mom in the face at the fact that she never realized that. Even in the end scene, it looked so strained.

An amazing plot that was TRULY well done.

Maybe you’re not the crazy bitch I keep calling you Anya..


Only Britney has the crazy today, bitch.

THANK GOD Anya finally gets a plot where she doesn’t act like a crazy person! I swear, every second on this show before this episode, she acted a fool in every single situation she was placed in and here she finally acted the way a NORMAL teenager would have reacted. The biggest shocker of course is when Holly J spilled the beans about Savvy J and she just didn’t care. I love how the writers tested us here, almost as if to say “you say she’s crazy, here’s proof she’s not” And hey, if they keep this up, then maybe I’ll rid of the crazy tag forever. But it’s only a matter of time life gets back to normal for her family, and the reality of Savvy J sets in.

Yeah, Connor WOULD get this plot.


Bet your ass that’s an online predator!

I hated this plot just for the mere fact that they gave it to Connor. It’s exactly like when they gave Emma the anorexia plot. Yeah we know it’s pretty typical for these guys to go through it because of their “stereotype” but I just have a feeling that Connor would have more sense of reason than to really go and meet an actual online friend. *SPOILER AHEAD* And upcoming promos show that Connor sees her AGAIN and probably gets raped up the ass. Couldn’t the Wesley kid have gotten this one? Connor needs a more badass plot, like I WISH he’s the guy who knocks up Jenna.

Savvy J and “Alew”? or “Dralli”?


Can someone clarify the couple mashup name here?

Truthfully, I could care less about either couple. I still don’t buy Drew in this relationship and my respect for Alli this season has dropped to nearly nothing. So them together, not together, dating monkeys is really no skin off my back. Savvy J, I’ll admit is a SMIDGE more interesting because they’re basically just fuck buddies. Was there ever a relationship in the show that was just for the purpose of fucking? MAYBE Emjay but that stopped quick when the STD’s started flying. But like I said before, what’s going to happen when Anya really registers what’s going on or, even better, when Declan comes back? Because that hottie has to come back to Degrassi at some point this season..

That’s it for this week kiddos! Rumor has it, the next 2 weeks are going to be INSANE. This week was insane in itself so to top that is going to be one hard sell.

I’m actually on vacation this week so no blogs/twitter until Saturday. =( Will miss you all lovlies! Leave some comments and let me know what happens this week! Someone’s gotta keep me in the loop =)

Boiling Points – Week 3

August 11, 2010 - 12:52 am No Comments

Hey there Degrassi fans! My recap for last week is coinciding with this weeks episodes because I’ve just been a busy little beaver here over in NYC. Tough life being this thing called an adult. Besides, who has time to blog when you’ve been up all night video chatting with AJ Saudin?

THAT story will take place another day, but for right now lets get to the scoop.

Basically Week 3 was filled with drama starting with Sav’s parents who are being typical over-protective Indian parents and not letting Sav go anywhere, ESPECIALLY to the Dead Hands concert who sing some shit about paisley jackets that Sav/Eli/Adam/and Bianca eventually get to by coming up with a plot to “borrow” his father’s car but that ship quickly sinks when he gets pulled over for speeding but really for grand theft auto being that his father reported the car stolen which starts the whole getting involved with the police theme this week when Eli tricks Fitz into thinking that a fake ID is legit when it’s with a name of a convicted criminal putting their “battle” at a somewhat stalemate at the moment which is good considering Jenna is SHITTING ALL OVER HERSELF BECAUSE SHE’S FAT, not like Declan would ever tap that because him and Holly J are officially dunzo after he tries to legit buy her everything making her feel like some cheap skank like Fiona’s “pet” Porcelina aka Jen.. I mean a pig.

Two words, one girl. Jenna. ANAL LEAKAGE.


Not a fucking lie. ANAL LEAKAGE.

I just want to start off saying how yes, this is a legit issue with fat pills. See the back of those “Alli” diet pills. THE FUCKING BOTTLE TELLS YOU TO WEAR DARK PANTS IN CASE OF ANAL LEAKAGE. Seriously, this couldn’t have happened to a better character being that I still 100% absolutely loath Jenna. Yeah diet pills are wrong, diet pills aren’t a smart idea, yaddi yaddi yadda. A monkey knows that, but apparently not Jenna. What made me vom in my mouth, however, was the gross exchange between Kenna RIGHT after she shit her pants. Good for a boyfriend not wanting his girlfriend to be some toothpick, but really, Kenna is just absolutely nauseating and that single scene will always and forever NOT make me a Kenna fan ever. This is going even beyond the fact that I like Kclare or the very known fact that I hate Jenna. Jenna, from day one, has left a sour taste in my mouth in the way her character is developing. It’s very superficial and lacks some serious depth that next to one one can relate to. It’s pretty clear across the board, that Jenna isn’t a fan by many and not just by me.

Sav, Degrassi’s new Yoda


So I might almost get us carded to jail but thank you for still looking up to me.


Start a band, GET LAID.

Sav was pretty much a seemingly badass this week, except for when he gets arrested for jacking his own fathers car, and practically speeds home because he just couldn’t miss his “Paisley Jacket” song. Besides the fact that he got reamed out by his parents, it was interesting to see the dynamic of Sav/Eli/Adam as well as Sav/Three Tenners in Dave’s diva plot. It’s nice to see that he’s almost paying it forward from when he was a young grasshopper and trying to make it on his own in high school. He’s become a mentor of sorts, really making the win of his school presidency all the more legit when we all thought he was going to suck balls at it. Good to see that he can be someone else’s voice of reason when he can’t even be the voice of reason for himself.

A side note: The Three Tenners song is actually pretty baller. More baller than any Studz song.

Dolly J are dunzo, like we didn’t see that one coming..


Chantay, you are the biggest fucking creeper on this show. Plz graduate. Kthx.

This plot was actually kind of interesting being that no one on the history of this show was as ever as well-off as Declan and Fiona. So to see a relationship build itself as well as basically destroy itself around money, is new. I definitely don’t blame Holly J for breaking it off. I’d feel like some cheap slut too. Declan was being somewhat of an ass even though his intentions were PROBABLY honorable. I stress the probably because, really, who that rich can be 100% honorable? Not that many. But I lean towards the good in him being that he’s never put Holly J in any kind of compromising situation before this.

My main concern in this? WHERE’S LANDON?! He’s been WAY too MIA this season being that we’re getting a new episode 4x a week. They better bring him back asap and not keep him in NY..

Oh Eli, how you tease us all.


You say creepy, I say HOT

No really, I probably shouldn’t think that a twenty year old is cute but I really can’t help it..

Anyway, I really enjoyed this one and NO not just because of Eli but because it was just plain GENUIS. If this isn’t setup for something huge, like oh say, the LOCKDOWN? Then I don’t know what is. What this really brings into light is the whole “mental stability” of Eli. Yes, not many would react this way to a guy like Fitz and his form of bullying but I highly doubt that this questions his mental stability. How about that he’s just sticking up for himself and making sure it doesn’t happen again?

There you have it kids. A little short this week but that’s just because I’m a little behind. Got to chat with some of you guys when I video-chatted with AJ last night and I’m so glad I have THE greatest readers/followers in the world! Really means a lot and I truly do all of this for you guys. So thanks for the support and keep the Degrassi lovin’ going strong!

Who’s video chatting with AJ Saudin right now? That would be The Dish.
