Well, I would’ve posted this a lot sooner but the Direct TV/Viacom feud took away Teennick, so I wasn’t able to watch the episodes online. But, now that it’s back I am free to blog away.
Katie vs. Drew and Bianca
I first want to start off with one simple question; what is it about Bianca that gets Drew going? I know, she’s hot and had that bad ass personality, which only added more to the hotness. But, I just don’t see what Drew sees.
I was so conflicted when it came down to Team Katie or Team Bianca. Both girls really love Drew but only one of them (in my opinion) is right for him. Can you guess who? That’s right, Katie! Katie saw Drew at his worst and didn’t leave. Katie saved Drew when he was drowning, she was his lifeboat, and he repays her by dropping her the minute Bianca comes back in the picture. That’s not right.
It’s not fair for Katie to save him when he was in need of being rescued. But, Katie was in a rough patch and he couldn’t even try to save her. It boggles my mind a little bit.
But, then I remember how much Bianca had to sacrifice to keep Drew safe. It showed me (I’m not sure about anybody else) how much Drew meant to her. A person that’s willing to sacrifice their own happiness for your life is worth keeping.
This whole entire scenario was crazy; Bianca pushing Drew to break up with Katie, Drew taking the chicken route by making up a fake girl, Katie crashing the party, Drew and Katie losing their virginities to each other, and so on. My head was hurting by the end of the episode.
At first when Katie showed up at his party and Drew told her to go upstairs, I knew something was going to down. I thought that Katie would remind Drew of how she saved him, and Drew would go back to her. I thought this was going to be another Craig, Manny and Ashley. But, I was surprised it didn’t end that way.
Drew taking away Katie’s virginity! Oh my Degrassi (OMD)! That’s just low. The most terrible part of it all was he didn’t even remember it. OMD! I honestly have to say, I felt so bad for Katie. I don’t think I ever seen someone so hurt. Katie was having the worst of luck. When Drew had asked her to keep it a secret, and not tell anybody, my mouth fell open. That made her sound like some dirty mistress or something.
At that moment, I had a fleeting thought; Katie should so tell Bianca that would be so sweet.
Maya vs. Her Body
Dallas is a prick for calling Maya flat and instilling doubt in her body. But, I have to say it was hilarious when Maya got one of those silicone rubber breast pads, and it fell out while she was in the middle of performing. But, maybe that needed to happen so she could finally see that having a hot body isn’t really everything.
I was so happy when Mo approached her and said, “We need you in this band.” Maya finally realized how musically talented she is.
The most important lesson to learn from all this is: when it comes down to a battle between talent and looks, talent will most likely win.
Congrats to Maya!!
The Return of Eli and Clare!
I am so happy Eli and Clare are officially back in Degrassi’s Pool of Love. (I just thought I should get that off my chest.)
So, at first I thought Eli was a being a bit standoffish because he was over Clare. I mean, he was trying to get her back in every way possible, even though it was clearly in the wrong ways. But, Clare wouldn’t budge. She was too busy getting it on and off with Jake. (Thank God that’s over – it was a total snoozer).
The scene between Eli and Clare in the party gave me goosebumps, when he said, “You knew I was leaving, there were twinkly lights; it was easy. I wanna know it wasn’t just some fleeting moment because there won’t always be twinkly lights. And if we’re gonna do this, you need to be all in.” Awww. And Clare said, “Eli, I am all in.”
I think Eli and Clare are starting off good; he isn’t crashing his car or burning his play on stage. He was so chill when Clare had to reschedule their date. So, I have high hopes for these two.
So, if I was giving grades I would give this overall episode of Degrassi an A+.
