remember the one where they had a carnival and kept pissing off the old lady next door? hehe...was the series filmed in canada? it has a canadian vibe going on.
this sparked a discussion between me and andrew about books for young women and the "babysitters club" series. he asked me if the television series was as good as "degrassi." i said hell no. there were no pregnant teenagers in "babysitters," just girls having crushes and planning wacky events for kids.
yeah, the babysitters club t.v. series was pretty water downed - I think it was a disney thing. They should have stayed true to the book and done an episode about Kristy's lesbianism, Dawn's sniffing glue problem, and of coarse Stacy's bulimia. Oh well. That is why shows like Degrassi were so great (They dealt with the same things I was dealing with.) I remember watching Degrassi Jr. High all the time, I think Canadians sort of had a heads up on making television shows...I mean just look at "you can't do that on television."
