These episodes DEFINE degrassi for me. nobody talks about anything more than “the shooting of drake” “cripple jimmy” and its honestly kinda fucking WILD. - Lets get 1 thing straight. Terri was a GOLDEN character. no matter what situation she never looked bad up to this point. the coma thing was such a horrible thing for her and they really kind of ignored terri for most parts except like 3 or 4 plot lines I felt like she was pushed to the side as a character cause its a shame. she got treated like dog by ashley half the time or paige until like S3. anyways. - The haircuts made in this episode are TRASH. Spinner looks horrible and so does Joeys GF forget her name but they both look so bad - Rick fucked up with what he did to Teri period, before the coma and after coma. - Idk why he came back aside from just being RAGGED. mans couldnt do anything in peace like from the jump he was already a school shooter. and idk how some people feel with their empathy toward rick or no empathy i personally felt bad for him. yeah ABUSE is FUCKED. like FUCKED. and the show did great handling that topic. the coma shit was also wrong they literally brought rick in to be a no name menace to becoming degrassi’s top target of wanting to livestream tortue somebody. But i felt bad, especially when he had hope with telling his mom about his life (even though he his clearly dilusional and lives in his own world where Emma is his loving girl and jimmy is his best bro and ignoring Toby for some reason when the previous episode Toby became best buds with mans) - Spinner and the 30 year old ruined jimmy. God damnit the bathroom scene bro. the ultimate betraly that rick felt in that stall. That scene that pans to him is like oh no dude jimmy is DEAD. JIMMY DID NOT DESERVE IT FUCK MAN. then rick decided emma’s next like bro. Fuck rick all the empathy just goes away. in that moment you feel nothing for rick. and the fact craig is the first to see jimmy when homeboy was literally sick as fuck at home and said fuck my dumbass teenage step dad. like what man. how did no teachers hear the gunshot like. fuck bro jimmy did not deserve it. - in conclusion fuck rick when i started this i remember having empathy for rick but then like fuck…
