This newest iteration of the long-running series brings with it a lot of the good (and a bit of the bad) of previous seasons. If you've ever enjoyed Degrassi or other teen dramas you'll likely find a lot to like about Next Class.
Sure there's the cheese factor, but Degrassi has always been able to mostly overcome this by approaching things with a level of earnestness that's hard to not find charming, and Next Class is no different.
The acting is certainly a mixed bag (part of the price of actually using teenagers to play teenagers), but there are several very good performances. Eric Osborn (Miles) and Spencer Macpherson (Hunter) in particular stand out.
All in all, Degrassi has always been a show that knew what it was and mostly succeeded in what it set out to do. Things don't change with Next Class, and in some ways they even get better.

This show, much like the other incarnations of degrassi, is so freaking funny. The acting, script, and overall plot lines are just stupidly hilarious. If you're bored and looking for a good laugh and a show you don't have to completely pay attention to this is perfect. But I also highly recommend it, funnier than a lot of shows without even trying.
I'm starting to think this show must be a work of genius because there is no other reason that I should've watched every episode in 2 days. If you come across it stop immediately and watch the first episode; you will be hooked immediately though you will feel bad for doing so at first. The shame goes away and you realize why have I not been watching this my whole life?
So everybody give it a try, it's so bad it's good ( I promise )

I've loved this show since I was a little kid. Being 21 years old now I still have a love for it. However I wish things wouldn't happen quite so quickly. I wish they would take more episodes to develop certain issues. I also kind of miss the adults having their own story line as well. Parents with issues who are dealing with real things other than their children being crazy all the time. They just feel like the people who show up when bad things happen rather than the way it use to be with Spike and the adults. I loved having the adult story lines because it made it more real with their interactions with the kids. The care they had for the kids was more in depth than just being their as a comforter. With that said- I really want the show to continue and will support it on Netflix.
