Subject: Addresses?

What are the exact addresses for DJH and DH as I would like to make a trip to visit the schools?

*Mark* the building which housed DJH for three years is on 68 Daisy Street in the Mimico area of Etobicoke, Ontario. the school building was called Vincent Massey Junior School. Degrassi High was filmed in the one of the campuses of Centennial College which can be located at the corner of Pape and Morden in East York. I do not know the exact address of Centennial College, but you can visit their website to find out more information at http://www.cencol.on.ca/.

Good Luck and Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year Par!

Stefan (if you get to read this): Thanks so much for posting! It's great to hear from you! Snake was always one of my favorite characters - sort of the solid one to balance out Joey's and Wheel's crazy behavior.By the way, I also saw you on Wind At My Back for one episode, where Hub is working on that farm. Please post again, that was neat!

*Mark* As I e-mailed Stefan last week asking him if he wanted to subscribe, he did not answer yet. I will forward this message to him, and I hope that he will subscribe to the discussion group so he can take an active part in our discussion.

Hey There Degrassi Fans! I was wondering if anyone here who watched Degrassi tonight, (being Tuesday, Dec.23) noticed the cast... It was the Episode "Black and White" and I noticed that Michelle's Dad wasn't the same person.. the guy that played him in this episode was some elderly bald guy that was kinda plump.... As well, if there are some Much Music fans here, you do know the VJ, Rick the Temp. His last name is Campanelli, and the girl who played Tessa also has the same name too.... Anyone know if they're related? Thanx, Peace, ~PrincessPaige : )

*Mark* that is interesting because most actors who played Degrassi parents did not change around like soap operas. However Michelle's dad in the 3rd and 4th season are indeed played by different actors. As well Caitlin's dad is played by different actors in "Stagefright", and in "Loyalties" In Stagefright, Steve Behal plays Caitlin's dad, but a different actor plays her father in the 5th season. Donna Hird plays Caitlin's mom throughout the 5 seasons. The girl who played Tessa is Kirsten Bourne. She plays the character Tessa Campanelli.

Subject: How cool! A message from Snake!

Howdy everyone!

Wow, a message from a cast member - pretty cool, huh! Hey, does anyone know if Brogren is one of the 'Three Canadians" - the comedy group? Cos when I saw them a couple of years ago at the Melbourne Comedy Festival, one of them looked a LOT like him! Ange

*Mark* It is great to get a message from a Degrassi actor...As a matter of fact, my friend just spotted a Degrassi actor, Anabel Waugh, who played Dorothy, on a streetcar in Toronto on Queen Street going to a Theatre School or College. I am not sure of the school, but I will let you know if any of you are interested.

Hey there,

I was wondering if anyone knows if any of the cast are married now, and if they have kids? As well, anyone seen Pat(Joey) or Amanda(Spike) recently?? Does anyone know other web-pages about Degrassi? I've only been able to find the Degrassi Fan Club, David Nashtar's page, Degrassi On-line, and some articles written about Degrassi. Maybe someday, i'll make my own small tibute to Degrassi on the web...... ~Paige : )

*Mark* unfortunately, there is only David's site, Oren's, the Degrassi Update Site, Parasail's Site, and Ange's site. My Degrassi Website will be launched in mid-January, as I have been collecting Degrassi articles, newslcippings, for the past ten years. I have finally decided to get around to making a Website. I have worked on it for the past year, thinking, and pondering about what to do, what to say, making sure I am not copying anyone. so there are limited sites, but the more the merrier, if you want to explore an aspect of Degrassi that has never been talked about, then go ahead. As there now exists a Degrassi Webring, those who have websites can e-mail me for the html coding to put on their page. As for Degrassi actors being married, when I interviewed Dan Woods, who played Mr. Raditch on the series, he wrote that he is happily married with two children. As for any others, I am not sure. Perhaps they are pursuing their careers or going on in their education. Most Degrassi actors would be in their mid twenties (24-26) now. Perhaps they are settling down...

If any of you have a Degrassi related site, please e-mail me at my school address as soon as possible to register for the New Degrassi Webring. You must give me your e-mail address, your URL, and a brief description of your site.
