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.
