The child stars of Canadian television drama THE KIDS OF DEGRASSI STREET grew to adolescence in the spin-off series DEGRASSI JUNIOR HIGH. Expanding on the realism that made its predecessor such a hit, the spin-off tackled a wide range of issues plaguing modern teens--from popularity, dating, and sex, to the death of a parent, domestic abuse, and drugs--with a groundbreaking frankness that influenced later teen soap operas such as BEVERLY HILLS 90210. This collection includes five powerful episodes from the series' third season: in the two-parter Can't Live with'Em, Wheels' (Neil Hope) parents are killed in a car accident; in A Big Girl Now, Lucy (Anais Granofsky) feels pressure to sleep with her new boyfriend; in Season's Greetings, Arthur (Duncan Waugh) and Yick (Siluck Saysanasy) exchange Christmas presents; and in Loves Me, Loves Me Not, Caitlin (Stacie Mistysyn) develops a crush on Joey (Pat Mastroianni).
