Degrassi Promo Pics and Discussion Thread: Umbrella, Part 1
Kary	on October 29, 2010
So I’ve decided to change up the whole review thing for Degrassi for Season 10. Instead of doing reviews for both Parts 1 and 2 of episodes, I’m now going to wait until Part 2 airs for each episode, then write one review which covers both parts. For Part 1 episodes I’ll still create a post like this one where everyone can still discuss the episode.
It was easy to do reviews for four episodes a week during The Boiling Point when I had nothing to do, but with my schedule these days (specifically not being around on Friday nights and sometimes the entire weekend) it’s craaazy. That and it’ll be interesting to watch the Parts back-to-back before reviewing them since they refuse to show them all as hour-long episodes. I’m fine with 30-minute episodes when the storylines are concluded in that timeframe, but it’s definitely getting annoying having to wait a week to see Part 2 (I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN!! arghhh).
I think Umbrella could make or break Eclare for me. With 4 episodes per week during The Boiling Point it felt like we were blowing through storylines left and right, so it didn’t feel like any one character or couple just purely dominated the show. But this will be the third and fourth episode in this half of Season 10 where Eclare has been one of the two main plots. I like Eclare (I actually like Clare more than the actual couple), but with Degrassi back to it’s old broadcast schedule this could mean bad news for the way Season 10 has been written so far…there’s bound to be some “Character Burnout” on the horizon. It’s something that’s happened for me in Seasons 4 (Craig), 6 (Semma, Paige), 7 (Marco), 8 (Mia) and 9 (Dolly J), where I didn’t necessarily hate the character(s), I just got tired of constantly seeing them at the forefront. I’d hate to see Eclare go that route as well.

Honestly, I think I can handle all the Eclare(I’ve never been this obsessed with a couple, on any show/book, EVER XD lol)…I love both the characters on their own, and I really REALLY hope that they stay together for the rest of the show. ECLARE FOREVER! XD But while I have full love for Eclare, I also really want to see what happens with Fiona and Adam(because you can’t like ECLARE without lovin’ the Mistfits…and Adam just kicks so much ass you can’t help but root for him!)…I can’t wait for Umbrella, and you better believe that when little fan-girly squeals pierce the skies, that’s me. XD lol (YES! First review! WOOT WOOT! :D)

Fiona and Adam, Adam want a physical relationship and Fiona does NOT want a physical relationship.
GiantStuffedDog	 October 29, 2010 at 9:53 pm
Um, Adam does not want a sexual relationship.
Kerrin	 October 30, 2010 at 10:38 am
Adam doesn’t want one,
Liz	 October 30, 2010 at 12:32 pm
Adam does NOT want one.. he’s transgender..
kaos133	 October 31, 2010 at 2:18 am
@liz wooooow either ur really young or ignorant. ima give you the benifit of the doubt & say ur just young so lizzy sweetie just thought id let you know. transgender doesnt mean hes Asexual.. oe of my friends in highchool was transgendered & got hella ass. & rumor had it that he was damn good at what he did too.
Dr. James	 October 31, 2010 at 7:29 pm
Josh Wilson – Before The Morning, you guys should hear this song. It made me think of Clare and her problems. It’s gospel, but it’s an awesome song. And besides Clare is Christian so she could possibly understand. It can bring you to tears. I bet you may find it a great song even if you’re no christian.
Kite	 October 29, 2010 at 8:02 am
Yea, I’m hoping that this is the last Eclare main plot for a while. I like them as a couple and characters, but eventually I will get tired of seeing them all the time. But I’m really excited hopefully for Fadam. I just think that Fionna and Adam would be better as a couple then Drew and Fionna. Anyways, I can’t wait till this episode airs tonight!
Monique	 October 29, 2010 at 12:56 pm
It’s about time. Tonight degrassi is back. I never knew that Dave’s dad was a cop. I hope he can handle him working at his school. As for Eclare, I love them as a couple and can’t wait to see what happens.
Tati More	 October 29, 2010 at 1:37 pm
How did you know that Dave dad was a cop j.w
shaquira	 October 29, 2010 at 4:25 pm
and how do u know thats daves dad?
Camiwamicat	 October 30, 2010 at 2:01 am
If you watch the beginning of the episode you will see Dave and his dad next to the cop car plus Wesley even mentions it -_-
Gave	 October 30, 2010 at 8:10 am
Dave shoots wasley
srry I didn’t get 2 see the ep until 11
JAYJAY	 October 29, 2010 at 1:07 pm
I’m excited for the episode.
I love Eli and Clare but I’m more excited for the Adam/Fiona/Drew triangle.
I like how we don’t find out the C plots until we watch, I hope it’s a good one.
Mack Attack	 October 29, 2010 at 1:09 pm
Personally I’m getting tired of seeing EClare ALL THE TIME. I like Eli’s character and I like Clare’s character all though I think she’s trying a bit too hard to grasp at the only straws she has left. I mean, asking Eli to “spend the night”? I don’t see Clare saying that, with or without her parents’ divorce. Them as a couple…it feels too much in my face too soon. Granted, you could tell from a distance that they would be paired together, it’s the cliche good girl falls for dark/mysterious by plot. However, I dislike how the writers think that all ANYONE wants to see are those two.
Here are my thoughts for the Adam/Fiona/Drew thing. Fiona plainly says she’s not looking for a serious or a physical relationship. However, we also see that Drew and Adam both like her. 1) I don’t like the idea of pitting Drew and Adam against each other. They’ve shown how close the two brothers are and pitting them against each other for a girl is…Drew-like, not Adam-like. Now, I think the only thing that will come of the whole Torres Triangle thing is that Fiona will bring out the best in them. Drew starts dressing nicer to impress her and I bet he also tries at school to impress her. True, there is a scene that shows that he yells at Adam that he’s not a boy but I bet this leads to Drew’s “softer side” that Luke Bilyk said that you’d see in Drew later on. For Adam, I’ll bet Fiona helps him full accept who he is (not that he didn’t before) but I’ll bet she’s the one who makes (or helps) him be able to go through with telling their Grams who he really is. Drew and Adam would fight either over her or the fact that Drew said that Adam wasn’t a girl but, ultimately, it would bring them closer and I don’t think that they would let Fiona ruin that.
im sorry but i love Eclare i cant pass there storylines up! i like adam fiona and drew i just like Eclare more
Lori	 October 29, 2010 at 4:24 pm
Honestly I’m already extremely tired of Eclare. I’m much more excited for Adam/Fiona/Drew.
I agree with Kary! I like Eli and Clare, but not every single episode, especially in a row. Remember how everyone loved them as a couple because they had chemistry before they started dating and they weren’t rushed, forced or randomly put into a couple like everyone else was. Well now personally I feel like all that is being ruined by bombarding us with them. When Eli was first mentioned wasn’t he supposed to be an an interesting, different, awesome, etc. (can’t think of the word) character? I feel like they haven’t done anything with his character besides pair him up with Clare, and have him fight with Fitz.
DTNGWOOT	 October 29, 2010 at 5:26 pm
OMG i agree,
Its like the character development for Eli has COMPLETELY stopped. They need to give him his own storylines about him and his life. Hopefully Umbrella brings some insight to his home-life and whatnot
KW	 October 29, 2010 at 5:44 pm
They’re not in every single episode. They were the B-plot in the last two, and they are the A-plot in the next two. That’s not really a lot. It just feels that way because the episodes are more spaced out now. To be honest, we probably won’t be seeing them again for some time, considering there are other characters we haven’t even seen yet, and other characters that need a chance to develop. They’re probably showing two Eclare plots in a row because we’re not going to see either of them again for a while, but that’s just what I think.
Now that they’re together, there won’t be as much of them until there starts to be more problems in their relationship IMO. We actually saw more of them in the last half of the season. But nobody complained because it went by so fast, and because they hadn’t gotten together yet.
The reason they probably haven’t done anything with Eli yet is because he’s still a new character, so they’re most likely not going to want to pull out all of the interesting stuff right away. I feel like they’re saving some of it.
It doesn’t matter whether they were A plots or B plots. Idk how you can say that they haven’t been in it a lot! (I mean I’m not complaning at all, it’s just starting to be too much but..) Clare has still been in 4/4 episodes (6/6) and Eli has still been in 2/4 (4/6). 6 episodes into the season and you haven’t even seen half of the cast is just. I agree 100% though that the episodes are more spaced out which makes it worse for having a bunch of Clare+Eli plots in a row. 4 episodes is a month. So you have a month of their character stories. Instead of splitting it up a litlte bit.
Just because they are together doesn’t mean they can’t have stories separately. And if they start having their own storylines that deal with relationship problems, that still deals with each other. Oh and they were in more episodes in the last half of the season? I agree lmfao duhh. We’ve only had 4 episodes so far. But you say that they were in the last half of the season more even though they basically had B plots?
And yea they may be saving Eli’s interesting stuff for later, which I would rather have, but the crew and the cast were saying stuff that he was such an interesting character, ‘their favorite’ and how ‘they’ve never had a character like him before’.They were saying that stuff before any of this was even written and he still hasn’t had anything extreme, you know what I mean? I like his character but what makes him so different and amazing? Nothing…yet!
@ Matt: What I meant, is that in proportion to the entirety of the next half of the season, 4 episodes out of 19 (I think that’s how many there’ll be?) isn’t a lot. Well, it’s a good amount, but not “OMG THEY’RE IN EVERY EPISODE”. I know right now it might seem like it, considering we’ve only had six episodes so far and I know they’ll probably have more than four eventually, but I’m sure in-between now and then, some of the other characters will have their fair share of screen time.
When I said we won’t see much of them until they start having relatioinship problems, I was just talking about their couple/pairing. As in, we won’t be seeing Eclare again for a little while until they start to have relationship problems, because that’s the only time a couple is ever focused on in an episode (of course). And I know that they can have separate plots. I’m sure they’ll get their separate plots eventually. It’s just that my theory is that the reason they’re showing so much of them in the beginning is because they might not be showing either of them again for some time, that’s all. I just think that them having separate plots without one another is also going to take a while. I’d like to see more of Eli’s character on his own, since he’s supposed to be more interesting than what we’ve got so far, but I don’t know when that’ll happen. I think they’ll probably deal with Fitz coming back first before they move on to other stuff with Eli. I don’t know why. It’s just a hunch.
I know they only had B-plots in the last half. As a matter of fact, I think they had two of those B-plots focused soley on their relationship…then Eclare were in some other plots together in the background, like the Eli vs. Fitz one and the Adam A-plot one…and obviously, there was the finale…. and there are probably a bunch I’m not thinking of. And I know that there was at least one point we’re they were in four in a row before, in some form or another. Or at least, I think there was?
My point was just that I didn’t understand why people were so upset about it just now, when they’ve had a lot of screen-time before now. The only thing I could come up with is that people don’t care as much because they’re together now, so there’s no more “will they, won’t they” (even though everyone knew they would) anymore, so they’re getting sick of it easier, or it’s because it just felt like it went by faster in the summer, so people didn’t notice…
Matt	 November 1, 2010 at 8:19 pm
It doesn’t matter how many plots the will/won’t have in the future. What were talking about is right in the beggining of the season the have 4-6 plots in a row.
Kenny	 October 29, 2010 at 5:50 pm
Why does that Chinese kid look like Drew?
i have no idea who it is, its either drew looking Asian, or an Asian kid looking like drew.
Lolled at Drew looking Asian!!!
Degrassi	 October 29, 2010 at 7:27 pm
I Think I Could Handle Eclare Episodes More Than I Could Endure A Different Character Storyline. I Think It’s Because We Haven’t Been TERRIBLY Overloaded With Their Episodes. Now If They Show 6-8 Episodes Straight Of This Couple, Then I Think That I Will Have A Problem :o
After these two episodes it will be 6 straight for clare and 4 for Eli. Also, we don’t even know the sub plots for Halo.
Aquitar	 October 30, 2010 at 10:08 am
Thankfully Halo is about KC & Jenna, a “thoughtful” boy liking her (perhaps Sav?), Jess finally being introduced, a secret party, and someone going to the Hospital (probably Jenna). The no new Degrassi till February :(
Degrassi needs more Fiona

medusa_sk	 October 29, 2010 at 9:56 pm
IKR!! it made my night!!
Alice	 October 29, 2010 at 9:58 pm
Dave’s a dick, and stupid. Nobody is cooler than Wesley.
Wesley showed Dave whos the boss
Thing 3	 October 29, 2010 at 11:15 pm
Dave is being the same person he was to connor in season 9. I honestly see Dave committing suicide…
phillipsAndoveer(:	 October 29, 2010 at 9:24 pm
Wesley is a BEAST !
don’t cross him xD
I suddenly have a higher respect for Wesley now. I thought he’d get walked over by Dave… but I was wrong..
aw, poor christain claire, and to think when eli and claire first met almost everyone thought he wud be the one to take her viginity .
ithink it might just be a sikeout though :-/
overall nice ep, and adam shudnt of agreed to drews thing of helping him . . . gonna lead to trouble . last 2mins shud be good .
Eli has ruined Clare. I can’t stand either. Adam/Fiona are my OTP<3
mursuli	 October 29, 2010 at 9:38 pm
I really don’t get why Eli was being a douche bag at the end. I get that he didn’t want her to do something she doesn’t want to do, but did he have to be a total dick about it and push her hands away?
omg guys…. the signs are all clear cluttered locker dosent want clare to see his room… digging through the trash to get his stuff back… guys…. elis a hoarder
ands thats probably why in the new preview he says he feels like hes gonna die hes probably with clare somewhere to fix his problem and hes scared to get over it
This is just clare overload, they are doing way to much with her character and normally she is a good actress but when she was crying in the school, idk i just really didnt believe it that much.
Darcy coming back would have made this storyline better
Where’s Connor? I want him to go all incredible hulk on mini Connor like he did to alli a few seasons back.
Kenny	 October 30, 2010 at 12:22 pm
I don’t know why he wasn’t even there either… I think he’ll be in the second part.
I love eli and clare with all my heart. I have never been so obsessed with a couple and i can’t stand it cuz ik if they break up I will be so depressed. i don’t understand why eli pushed clare away when she wanted to stay the night?? what do think??
Crazy4ECLARE	 October 30, 2010 at 11:59 pm
OMG same. I think Eli wants Clare to think it through before she goes against her beliefs, which I don’t think she will. Overall, I don’t care what goes down as long as they are still a couple at the end of the episode.
Friday cannot come fast enough. I need my weekly dose of Eclare, lol
nina	 October 29, 2010 at 9:56 pm
Anyone else pick up on how Clare’s departure from Eli’s house echoes his last fight with his ex? Girl leaving with her bike after an argument? I wonder if something will happen to Clare on her way home?
Also, Eli’s parents are kind of repulsive, right?
KW	 October 30, 2010 at 12:23 am
I’m a little bit ashamed to admit that I thought they were kind of funny. But yeah. Eli’s dad was waaaaay out of line.
HeelsOverHead	 October 30, 2010 at 1:08 pm
That’s exactly what I was thinking! And I hate how Eli always just lets Clare walk away angry when he should be running after her and helping her!
Cassidy	 October 29, 2010 at 9:58 pm
I didn’t really like Eli in this episode. It was like he was sending Clare mixed signals. I feel so bad for her.
Cassidy	 October 29, 2010 at 10:02 pm
I didn’t really like Eli in this episode. to me, it seemed like he was giving Clare mixed signals. I feel so bad for her. ):
*sorry for double posting.
idonthaveaname:)	 October 29, 2010 at 10:04 pm
i love eli but fuck i wanted to stab him into a wall tonight.
i totally ship clare and the asian rn.
Haha. Me too!
I didn’t really like Eli in this episode. To me, it seemed like he was giving Clare mixed signals. Poor Clare!
AMANDA	 October 30, 2010 at 10:58 am
How was Eli giving her mixed signals i mean if anything Clare was giving him mixed signals. Clare literally went to Eli to her parent then back to Eli and then back to her parents. Every time she heard something she didn’t like First she like you know Eli no sex before marriage and how could your parent offer to stay the night then she like were to different and just got up and left then she all like well lets have sex out of no where confused me at least
genn	 October 29, 2010 at 10:07 pm
hey Kary! On Spencer’s (Wesley from Degrassi) facebook pictures, he gave your website a little shout out.

Alyssa	 October 29, 2010 at 10:08 pm
Does anyone else get the vibe that Julia is . . .non-existent? Eli’s parents gave no indication that their son had a past girlfriend. He’s headed for a Craig-tastic breakdown in the last few episodes. Something mental isn’t quite right with that boy.
kaos133	 October 30, 2010 at 7:21 pm
i caught that too. but it says that we see a pic of her….. maybe julia was a girl he was like borderline stalker crushing on & that the reason they were fighting the night she got killed was because she was trying to tell him she did not want to be his gf…….. just a theory
btw i think i’m freakin in love w/ wesley after tonight. mi type of boi.
LaLaSingingMySong	 October 29, 2010 at 10:23 pm
I know, right! I was like…DOPE! Dave got TOLD!!!!! I’m lovin’ this side of Wesley- definitely not as hopelessly naive and dopey as he looks.
Holland	 October 29, 2010 at 10:23 pm
I second that! :D
This may be me over-analyzing, but did anyone notice the way that Eli jerked his hands back from Clare when she took them in front of his house? I will have to re-watch the episode when they post it on Teennick, but did anyone get the impression he was hiding something from her? Also, the sketchy behavior when his locker opened. I wondered if everyone thought what I was thinking- that he had cut scars there, or some kind of self-harm injury that he didn’t want her to see (hence why he wears the black bands on his wrists). Maybe he has been suicidal/depressive in the past? Maybe he is mentally ill and was hiding the evidence of it in his locker and didn’t want Clare to see? I know Degrassi did mental illness already with Craig and suicide/cutting with Darcy/Ellie, but they could be re-touching this storyline again with Eli. Does anyone have any speculations as to what he’s hiding?
I noticed that too. It could just be, when he pulled his hands away, that he was just trying to show her he was upset, like “Don’t touch me right now; I’m upset with you.”
I’ve seen, in other places, that people are speculating that Eli’s a hoarder. That would explain all the stuff in his locker. But I don’t know. Personally, I would like that as opposed to another self-harm plot. Eli doesn’t really seem like a person who cuts himself. He doesn’t really strike me as just simply depressed.
kkbabe	 October 30, 2010 at 11:16 pm
eli is a hauder. when julia died his brain jot messed up and now he can never throw anything out because hes afraid that he will be loseing himself. thats why his locker was such a mess. in one of the promos clare and adam open elis door {witch as a lock on it and they bust it open} hes its probebly a pig sty in there! and when he says ‘i think im gonna die’ its probebly because he actually still feels pain over his loss of julia and hes keeping all his emotions inside…. i really hope he turns out ok!
ohnoitsfilza	 October 31, 2010 at 12:45 am
You have a good point, I’ve even thought of that theory myself. It would be nice to re-touch the self-harm storyline again.
I am for sure feeling like we have not heard the last about Julia. He mentions her when he talks about Clare staying over. Maybe she is one of the reasons he freaked on Clare about her wanting to “spend the night”
Also I must say Fiona looks georgeous in the uniform!!!! She was so pretty in this episode!
I know! It seems like Julia will always stand in the way of their relationship. JUST MOVE ON ALREADY!!!
Bobby	 October 29, 2010 at 10:29 pm
Eli was good tonight. He clearly understands Clare is pressuring herself to move the relationship further than it should be & he knows she’d immediately regret having sex so I’m glad that he declined her knowing how both of them would feel
I never once got the feeling that Eli wanted to have sex this early. His comment to have at the restaurant seemed to me like he was saying “yea, sex would be nice, but caring about your feelings is nicer”. Him choosing to do what she wants sex wise is mature. It’s clear that Clare wants to save herself, which although isn’t necessary, is definitely worth respect
Clare soon is going to realize that she’s not thinking clearly right now & her original thoughts were right. She has too much common sense to continue to think this way. Eli being the mature one in the relationship is refreshing. We’re seeing a different side of both Eli & Clare. Eli showing how much he cares about Clare’s feeling is nice & Clare over reacting to her parents situation that is out of her control is interesting as well. A nice part 1
Mary	 October 29, 2010 at 10:45 pm
Clare came off as insanely immature tonight. It’s normal for a child of any age — even an adult — to be upset when his/her parents divorce, but her demanding that they work around HER needs and swap out living at the house was ridiculous. If the child is very young, parents may do that to minimize disruption and trauma caused by the divorce. Clare is what, 16? Girl needs to grow up. She may be upset, but she just came off as unbelievably immature here. She’s going off to college in like, two years. It’s hard to move out of your childhood home, but everyone has to do it eventually. Grow up, Clare.
And Eli was, I think, just being a teenage boy. Sure he was sending mixed messages — but really, that was the only way for it to be written. If he were some saint who didn’t want to sleep with Clare, it would be completely unrealistic. If he had no reservations whatsoever about having sex, even though he realized that she was only propositioning him because she was so upset about her parents, he’d come off as a jerk. I’m not usually a big Eli fan, but I didn’t mind him tonight. I thought the way he was written was very realistic.
Also, I loved that Darcy got a mention. It’s about time.
yeah no.
the first half of your comment is so unbelievably ignorant. your parent’s aren’t divorced? i assume.. so how the hell can you claim to understand how a kid whose parent’s are divorcing feels. different kids handle it in different ways. when my parents divorced, i acted a bit like clare in some ways. it makes me immature that i wanted to do anything to keep part of what had been my life? clare’s parents weren’t being understanding to her feelings, and were taking away everything that’s mattered to her. bitch she doesn’t need to grow up, you do.
I think it’s normal for her to be upset that her parents are getting divorced, and to feel like they’re forgetting about her. But I think it’s selfish and immature for her to expect them to build their entire lives around making her comfortable, considering her age. At 16, she should be mature enough to understand that their divorce is not about her and that they have reasons beyond the practical for wanting to move out of the family home. She has every right to be upset, and it’s realistic for her to act out, but she’s old enough that she really shouldn’t actually expect her parents to coddle her and make such drastic and self-sacrificing arrangements just to make her comfortable.
@Mary it’s selfish, but she didn’t mean to come off that way. it’s obvious that she wanted to keep at least some part of her life. and that’s exactly what everything she did was about. she didn’t expect her parents to ‘coddle’ her, she was just overly determined to keep part of her life the same when everything else was changing. also, eli gave her that idea, and she just wanted to believe that it would work out. when you’re that upset/desperate, sometimes your mind will make you think that your crazy ideas will happen.
Mary	 October 30, 2010 at 12:01 am
@idonthaveaname: I can see what you’re saying. I guess it was obvious to me when Eli talked about his “friend growing up” that his friend was very young at the time, and that’s why his parents were so willing to do it — Clare probably just jumped on the idea because it would be the best possible solution for her, without thinking about the circumstances. I don’t know, I still think it was immature for her to bring it up, but I get that she probably isn’t exactly thinking clearly at this point. I just think she’s a little too old to realistically be making suggestions like that and expecting that her parents will go for it. IMO, her propositioning Eli, or even her behaving like a “bad girl” in the previous episode to give her parents something to agree on, was a much more realistic reaction for someone her age who is having a problem like this.
@mary things are also ALOT different in strict christion households that beleave devorce is NOT an option
clare was raised to beleave devorce was someting shed never EVER see between her parents because they were against it cause theyre religion. so her world is tilted prolly a little more off than most kids goin thru devrce & notice he word i used, KID, she is still a child. even being an adult & hearing ur family is breaking up is a punch to the gut. sure some of the things goin on with the plot are a little not the norm. but unrealistic is not the word for it.
unrealistic wud be her finding a remote thatll magically make them love each other again, THAT, wud be unrealistic
Rachal	 October 31, 2010 at 11:31 am
My parents are divorced, they have been since I was 8 -19 now.
Clare IS being overly immature about it, she is 16, how could she honestly believe that dressing out of line would stop them from divorcing? Also, no teenage girl knows who she is at that age, but Clare is taking it to the extreme and trying to piss off her parents by dating Eli.
Honestly, 80% of teenage girls are all the same.
god help me. so many idiots on this site.. @Rachal did you even fucking read my comment? clare isn’t being immature. you can’t expect to know how she would react to her parents divorcing. this is a crazy time for her, especially since she’s used to having a ‘perfect’ family that gets along.
‘Honestly, 80% of teenage girls are all the same.’
seriously. how the hell would you know? why am i even listening to your bullshit.. fucking prove that 80% of ALL THE TEENAGE GIRLS IN THE WORLD are the same. i need charts/numbers bitch.

fucking agreed. just because in ur small pathetic lives all the girls you know are cookie cutters of each other who handle situations the exact same way doesnt mean that clare is being irrational. tell, me. what backs up this %80 that ur saying are clones??
teenagedivorcekid	 November 3, 2010 at 11:43 pm
Actually, Clare was pretty realistic. Statistically, it’s proven that divorce is MUCH more difficult on teens than on younger children. My parents divorced shortly after my eighteenth birthday, and I went crazy. I was drunk every night, acted out of line, had boys spend the night, spent the night out without telling my parents. Essentially, I acted a lot more selfish and immature than Clare. Oh, and my parents shared a house for another three months to disrupt me as little as possible before I went to college. So really, nothing was that unrealistic about the way Clare is acting. She’s acting like someone who’s life was just ripped apart. Her entire center is gone. When you think about it that way, wouldn’t you try to hold onto anything you could, a house, a relationship, too?
Omg, why are we only seeing Eclare/ Solly J/ and Jenna. Dont we have other characters who can get main storylines? Where is Anya, who was a big character in season 8 and 9 where is she. I LOVE LOVE LOVE degrassi but why are they only focusing on about 6 characters? It doesnt make sense to me…
on another note.
Didnt dave pull this stunt in season 9 to connor? I’m starting not to like dave. Personally i dont see his character growing. What happen to the jokester?
I wonder does Fiona know that adam is a girl?
it just seems like they’re focusing on a few characters because of the new episode format. 1 30 minute episode a week when the episodes are two parters makes it feel like they’re just focusing on a few things.
Thats true, no offense to the Eclare fans, but i want to see other characters. Like Anya, Riley, Chantay, Wesley, just somebody else besides Holly j/Sav/Jenna/Clare/Eli
@Thing 3 you will! you might have to wait, but they’ll be getting some plots pretty soon.

chelseahock	 October 29, 2010 at 11:25 pm
I also think Eli might be a hoarder.. It happens when you go through something traumatic and with his ex girlfriend dieing, and almost being stabbed hes been through a lot!
i’m going to ask if we’ll be seeing more of the asian.
he’s amazing, flawless, hot, asian, princess, hbic, asian
Alyssen	 October 29, 2010 at 11:34 pm
Did anyone else notice that the asian dude was first wearing a red shirt, then a blue shirt, then a red shirt again? I don’t know why but the second I saw him I got a weird vibe.
omg i didn’t notice that

THE RETURN OF FRIENDSHIP CLUB!!!!!!!!!!!! eli so utterly reminded me of season 5 spinner in that scene. it was odd tho, suddenly darcy got mentioned/alluded to so many times, and we hadn’t heard anything about her since alli borrowed her power squad uniform. there was “you’re splitting up and darcy’s gone, the house is all i have,”
“thats what darcy said when she wanted to go to africa,” the whole skiing picture thing (i swear that picture [darcy, at least, since the picture was probably edited together to show the three of them] was taken in “Standing in the Dark”!), and friendship club’s existence, which is a darcy reference as far as i’m concerned.
drew and adam’s relationship just makes me laugh so hard. its obvious that drew’s okay with adam, but i love how he’s constantly making little funny jibes. back in mbiac, he said “you took less time in the bathroom when you were a girl,” and now there was the thing of, “what do you know about girls, anyway?” for some reason, that line totally cracked me up. (unfortunately, i know those jibes are gonna get a lot meaner next week.)
and one last thing (sorry for the length of this post): i suddenly remembered that way back in season 9 when dave . . . um . . . poured stuff on bruce’s locker and bruce was chasing him and dave was running away, dave looked back and yelled, “my dad’s a cop!”
and one more last thing (sorry again): i feel like the whole dave/wesley storyline is a carbon copy of the dave/connor storyline last season where connor wasnt good at basketball but was keeping the stats. literally, i feel like this is the exact same storyline. there isnt even the benefit of it being several seasons later, like we’ve had before. dude, ITS THE SAME STORYLINE IN TWO SUCCESSIVE SEASONS WITH THE SAME CHARACTER!
Relly	 October 30, 2010 at 2:05 pm
Omg yes! I was hoping someone pointed out the Darcy picture lmao but hey soo glad we got a mention of her!
mandee	 October 30, 2010 at 12:05 am
They better not have Eli and clare break up or I am going to freak out. Just give us a couple that actually works out for once!!!!
Chey	 October 30, 2010 at 12:11 am
Eli was only trying to protect Clare. He is just looking out for her. I honestly think hes’s the one who says “I was just looking out for you”
It makes perfect since.
idonthaveaname:)	 October 30, 2010 at 12:16 am
he’s too protective of her sometimes though
how is he too protective at times?
idonthaveaname:)	 October 30, 2010 at 3:36 pm
@HeelsOverHead lmao did you not see everything that happened in all falls down part 1 and 2?
Yeah, but he just didn’t want Fitz to hurt her or force her to have sex with him because he just thought that Fitz asked her to the dance just to hurt him. i think he was really protective of her, but not overprotective.
@HeelsOverHead do you have brain cells? him not wanting fitz to hurt her, made him poison fitz. which then got him almost stabbed into a wall. he was willing to let it go that far.
Sarah	 October 30, 2010 at 11:33 pm
I agree and disagree. He did go too far, but it wasn’t until Fitz implied he was going to rape her that he decided to do anything – and at that point he was obviously desperate with rage and wanting to save her from the trauma of being raped. Before Fitz said that he was willing to let her go with him.
Danica	 October 30, 2010 at 12:16 am
ahhhhh okay thoughts on the episode:
-SO happy darcy got a mention. i got way too excited for that. it would be really cool if she came back on the show, but i have a feeling it’s not happening..
– I think Eli was reasonable tonight.. i’m kind of mixed on his actions but he obviously had good intentions. the only way he could have been better is if he expained to clare that he really knew that they weren’t ready and not just freaked out and said he was taking her home. clare was definitely being irrational and like someone else said, it’s refreshing to see eli being the mature one in the realtionship.
– Dave irks me. it may be ust because he seems like a cheap rip-off of JT, but he seems to go hot and cold. in season 9, he was the sweet guy who had a cute crush on alli, and in the boiling point we saw him being the jokester, but he also abandoned connor and wesley (at different times) for basketball guys. come to think of it, JT abandoned toby for jimmy and some other guys in one episode, but he got through it. dave just doesn’t have JT’s charm that makes you like him even when he messes up.
-not related to tonight’s episode, but do you guys think declan is coming back? apparently he is going to work on another show, but does anyone know if he will finish at least this season before leaving? or was going to new york his final send-off?
Dez	 October 30, 2010 at 12:40 am
Wow dude I was just about to mention that Dave and Wesley seemed like JT and Toby :/
Sarah	 October 30, 2010 at 1:02 am
difference is: People actually like JT. Dave? not so much :/
Jai	 October 30, 2010 at 12:25 am
I’m kind of bummed because of all the Clare/Eli strife in these last episodes about Clare’s family issues. Not because I’m a huge fan of the pairing or anything, but I’d like to see a plot about the divorce issue with Clare that didn’t also throw in the strain on Eli and Clare’s relationship. I know divorce can affect those kinds of things too, but I feel like her fights with Eli are distracting from the big picture.
Why can’t Degrassi have plots that don’t involve some kind of romantic strife? I wanted an episode of Clare having problems with her parents, and Eli to just show up at the end of the episode to hold her hand.
But instead you just get a clusterfuck of drama and are constantly distracted.
allicahshay	 October 30, 2010 at 1:35 am
I agree. And thanx for the new word. I’ll tell my clusterfuck of friends about it.
a noughaty chocolaty fuck
LaLa	 October 30, 2010 at 12:53 am
Did anyone else find it weird how when Eli’s locker opened, all this random shit started flying out and he suddenly got extremely suspicious. He seemed like he was hiding something, or was it just me?
Monique	 October 30, 2010 at 11:19 am
He definitely seemed like something was up. He had a strange look on his face like he expected Clare to say something about it. I’m not sure if anyone noticed this, but why does Eli open the door like a second after Clare knocks on his door. I’ve noticed this twice. In an earlier episode after their first kiss and Umbrella part 1. Is he just waiting for someone to ring the bell because wouldn’t a regular person come to the door after a few second or even minutes. I was just wondering, sorry if that was too random.
What do you all think about that?
What irritated me is that they seem to rush the episodes so much. I didn’t see Eli follow Claire to the friendship club( clubs were cancelled right?) plus how dare Eli say something negative in that club, when he questions her morals. It seems like he is trying to protect her. Also it seems that Claire just wanted to find a comfortable place to stay, not to have sex with Eli. But a place without fighting an escape, Eli is prob thinking that she wants sex and is protecting her . Or he is hiding a Julia shrine or his parents may be messy or drug users. I know I almost never had people at my house because I had a alcoholic father. So I can understand if Eli was embarrased of his family. They are uncuth and they do not remotely resemble Eli. Ps westley for the win! They need more stories on him. Do you guys think that Dave is going to steal his dads gun and shoot Westly to. Proove he is not a narc? Just a thought .
Lolo	 October 30, 2010 at 1:26 am
OMG What if Eli’s on drugs?! O.o
Oh and PLEASE BRING DARCY IN FOR AN EPISODE DEGRASSI! THAT WOULD BE EPIC!!!
Also, does anyone else kinda wanna see a clash/ glare-off between K.C. and Eli? We’ve been hearing a lot about Eli’s old girlfriend Julia, but does Eli know Clare was with K.C. ?
Julia is coming back to haunt Eli. I can feel it.
He’s not on drugs this season. Munro said in an interview on the degrassiblog that he’d like to see Eli have a drug plot in the future.
LovelyVerity	 October 30, 2010 at 1:59 am
First of all, I freaking loved this episode!
Aislinn did an awesome job, and everything to me in the episode flowed smoothly. I even surprised myself by even crying after watching some scenes. I couldn’t understand why it got to me, my parents aren’t divorced and I am not confused with my religious believes.
But then I reflected more on it and now I know what hit home for me. Due to bad economic times, my family lost our house, my childhood home where all sorts of memories where made. And most recent, my family has had to split up, my dad had to find work in a different state and I moved with him, but my mom stay back to take care of my pregnant sister. This is the first Thanksgiving and Christmas that we will not spend together :(. Coming from a life where you knew where home always was to not knowing where life will take you, is a very scary and intimadating feeling. Change always is.
Although what Clare is going through is not the same, I simpathize with her, I think most of us remember a time in high school where everything you believed in didn’t make sense anymore and feeling that the world was caving in on you. And IMO Clare did a perfect job protraying this.
Her life has always been black and white, and now she is being shown that it is not. And if Clare seems irrational to some, how can she not be. If I was in Clare’s shoes, I would have been 10 times worst.
I love how this is Clare’s plot not Eli’s, although he is involved in it.
IMO its one of the best plots in a while, although the start to it in Love Lockdown wasn’t so great, in Umbrella they redeemed themselves.
I don’t care who has been on what episode and how many plots each character has had. As long as they provide a good story is all that matters to me.
That Asian guy has potential.
lol that asian dude definetly likes clare he was so quick to smile when she raised her hand in jesus club and he was like so happy when she said hey to him in the hall. lol hes probably like damn what does she in that athiest and not me!?
LOL Since when did Clare start getting like almost all the guys in Degrassi?
the asian kid is the hbic.
Mack Attack	 October 30, 2010 at 7:32 am
Guys, Fadam won’t happen. Think about it. If they do start dating then eventually they’d have to kiss which would mean Annie and Jordan would have to kiss and no one knows if they’d be comfortable with it or not.
Hunter	 October 30, 2010 at 9:58 am
Dumbest comment ever? Jordan went on to portray a FTM so baisically she is playing a guy. No doubt she is going to have to kiss a girl sometime. Anyway,off of that idotic post i think Dave is my most hated degrassi character ever. I almost wanted to turn the episode how much i hated him. I never really liked him to begin with but he is an ugly,Annoying,hippocritical little bitch. He is angry when Alli did this to him in season 9 but did the same thing to connor and now is doing the same thing to Wesley (who is miles cooler than Dave) I hope he leaves the show soon.
Roberto	 October 30, 2010 at 9:59 am
What’re you talking about? Obviously you’ve never heard of straight actors/actresses playing the role of a homosexual. It’s called acting.
Emma	 October 30, 2010 at 10:04 am
why wouldn’t they be comfortable with that? They’re actors, it’s what they do.
KC looks like a girl and Claire and Jenna have been able to kiss him fine.
ahaha good one :)
Wooow. First off all, you don’t know their sexualities. For all you know, they could be homo/bi/pan/whateversexual. Just because they’re actresses doesn’t make them straight. Second of all, THEY’RE ACTRESSES. Kissing girls for TV is no different than them kissing guys for TV – because they wouldn’t have feelings for the guys EITHER. Look at Argiris and Shannon – not only are they both straight, but they’re also BEST FRIENDS in real life. Obviously they have no real feelings for each other. BUT THEY CLEARLY AREN’T AFRAID TO KISS EACH OTHER ON CAMERA. Thirdly, Jordan said in an interview that when she auditioned for Adam, she thought she was auditioning for a lesbian. So she, at least, had to have known that she would likely be kissing a girl somewhere along the line. While Annie wasn’t auditioning for a lesbian, she seems pretty open minded and probably doesn’t care. Try not to be so close-minded, kay, hun? And speaking of “hun”…Remember Alex and Paige? Yeah.
kayla	 October 31, 2010 at 10:01 pm
Are you stupid? Jordy first tried out for Degrassi as a butch lesbian.
Lori	 October 30, 2010 at 9:56 am
@ Or maybe they will. Its not like they’re the first straight actors/actresses to kiss on TV or movies.
Mack Attack	 October 30, 2010 at 10:23 am
Apparently you guys can’t read. All I said was WE DON’T KNOW if they’re comfortable with it or not. Sure, they’re actresses and I know that actors and actresses play homosexual people but THEY MIGHT NOT BE COMFORTABLE WITH IT EITHER WAY. Do you know them personally? No? That’s what I thought. I’m not saying I do either but some people might have reservations whereas others don’t. Not every actor or actress is the same. Damn.
Roberto	 October 30, 2010 at 11:42 am
If you don’t know them personally either, you really can’t make that statement. Whether or not the actors are comfortable or not with their role isn’t important. If they are given a role, they are expected to follow through. You said they WON’T happen. You don’t know that either. Next time word your opinion correctly so others aren’t confused. It’s not about people not being able to read, it’s about you unable to word things properly.
JAYJAY	 October 30, 2010 at 12:11 pm
I find it hard to believe Degrassi would pursue this story if they didn’t think the actresses would be willing to do that.
And Jordan knows Adam is attracted to girls. And she even said when auditioned that Adam was going to be a lesbian.
@mack attack obviously you got some homophobic feelings seeing as u feel the need to focus on the uncomfortable feeling f two girls kissing. like others said, they wudnt have hired them or the part if either of the actresses wernt ok with what theyd have to do as the character

Everything you want know…
i fucking hate how close eli and julia were.
Holland	 October 30, 2010 at 1:06 pm
I know! It seems everytime Clare and Eli get close to an emotional issue that invloves thier relationship Julia holds Eli back!
And she’s not even ALIVE!!!
@rachael. god can some one just push you off a cliff or something? like really. everything that youve written is just noise. ive had to live with a BF dying. have you. i loved him. but had to get over it. he wudnt have wanted me to live life holding myself back for something that could never be. i miss him. ill always love him & i remind him all the time
now i have a beautiful daughter with a guy i love very much (who is jealous) of my ex might i add & it adds a little conflict to things. the point is, u cant move forward if u cant leave the past behind.
I FUCKING KNOW RIGHT!!! Like dude, just forget about julia!!!
It was Eli’s GIRLFRIEND. Obviously he loved her, and they had a sexual relationship. Getting over a death, especially when you are a teenager and it was someone you were in a relationship with, can take years.
How would you deal with that situation? I highly doubt you would say, “oh he/she is dead now, so why don’t I just jump into a whole new relationship and forget about that other person”
The ignorance of these comments saying “get over julia” and “omg she’s dead!!! forget about her!!” are really immature and just plan idiotic.
rite!!? like wtf she really even wasnt there just fucking talked about
itwaslovee	 October 30, 2010 at 12:37 pm
Okay, to start this off, I am so glad that Darcy FINALLY got a mention. I think that the way they wrote her off in season 8 was ridiculous. Didn’t they say that she was only going to Africa for a few months? And wasn’t that picture of Clare, Darcy, and their dad taken during Standing in the Dark, Part 1? I wish they would bring her back for one episode this season to see what she would do about the divorce. I would love to see her have a mental break down and go right back to Africa. That would be amazing.
Now, back to the episode. Unlike most, I am a huge fan of Eli. I feel like he really believes in Clare and only wants the best for her. I hated how he kept going at Fitz during the Boiling Point, but now that that’s over, we can focus on who he really is and what he’s really like. There’s definatley something going on in his head. I’d like to believe that he’s depressed over Julia, or he just can’t let her go, but I honestly don’t think that’s it. Although, I do believe we will be hearing more about her in the future. -Side Note: I thought his acting in the steak house scene was phenomenal. You could tell that it was hard for him talking about Julia, and that as much as he wanted to have sex with Clare, he wasn’t ever going to pressure her. I also felt really bad for him when Clare kept going on and on about how they were too different. Great job, Munro.- I read above that someone thought he would be a hoarder. I can really see that happening. Or maybe he’s ashamed of letting Clare see his room because he still has thing’s of Julias. I don’t know…We will see.
Why does everyone feel bad for Clare at the end of the episode? Obviously Eli wasn’t in the mood to play these games with Clare about her sleeping over. He doesn’t want things to lead to sex and ruin everything between them. And I didn’t really think her acting was that good in this episode. It’s sad to say, but I’m getting sick of her parent’s story line. Enough already, let’s see what’s up with Eli!
The Dave story line was funny. I thought Spencer did an awesome job as Wesley. Great job. Also, the Fiona, Drew, Adam story line seemed a bit pointless, except for the fact that Adam is really stepping out as a guy. I hope it picks up a bit more in the future episode.
Overall, I liked this episode and I can’t wait to see what’s wrong with Eli. Something’s messed up in his mind…
has no one considered that eli might have a picture of julia in his locker or a bunch of julia’s old stuff and thats why he closed it so quickly and will later be freaking out and going thru the trash? and you know how clare said that friendship club would have to clean it out for him sometime as public service . . . think about it. it would make sense for clare to throw away a bunch of his stuff, not knowing that its important to him.
Okay, but in All Falls down Part 1 he and Clare finally become a couple in front of his locker (And the door is open). This is what confuses me, this is the first time that we see Eli ashamed of his locker. There were a bunch of scenes with Eli and his locker during the boiling point and not once did he seem different or suspicious.
@person that’s what I was thinking, but, like Holland said, we’ve seen his locker before, and it wasn’t this messy before.
person2	 October 30, 2010 at 11:38 pm
dude you are so right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! omg!!!!!!! if thats the truth i cant wait to see that episode!!!!!! and when clair is like ‘eli calm down’ and hes like ‘i cant belive this!’ after that he probebly is like ‘you threw away my stuff ahhhh!’ haha lol
Stephers	 October 30, 2010 at 12:51 pm
Okay, this episode sort of disappointed me.
Clare messed up, big time, AGAIN. And why wasn’t Eli still mad about her dressing up and such? They didn’t even mention that again, which seemed unrealistic. And Clare, I don’t know, she seems a big obsessive to me. Yeah, Eli is like all she has left blahblahblah, but this is like the 6th time she’s been rejected by him. Yeah, he did the right thing but not taking advantage of her and telling her to go home, but I am so sick of him rejecting her so rudely and then not chasing after her or something. He just lets her walk away, pissed off at him and sits there like “oh wellz.” In my point of view, that’s not being a good boyfriend.
And I was hoping the Adam/Fiona thing would get a little farther in this episode. Like, nothing happened except they got to know each other. Yeah, it’s a set up for next week’s episode but this week’s kind of bored me. Oh, and Drew is annoying. :/
I have to say I liked the Wesley/Dave plot the most. Wesley finally gets a backbone! I’m so sick of Dave trying to get popular though. Embrace your loser-ness Dave, you aren’t going to get popular by being a jerk.
Sally b	 October 30, 2010 at 3:25 pm
I used to think Eli was ugly but I’m starting to think he’s pretty hot
Person	 October 30, 2010 at 3:37 pm
I have to agree with Kary… I love Eclare Buuuut…. I think they are doing too many things with them. This will now be the 4th episode that they are the main plot of in a row and although I thought all the episodes have been amazing so far… I am getting kind of tired of seeing them ALL THE TIME. I wanna see more of the other characters.
And this might sound stupid but… what did they mean there is only 3 episodes left…? Didn’t the second half of the season JUST start like 3 weeks ago?
Matt	 October 31, 2010 at 12:22 am
They take a break like every television show does.
alex	 October 30, 2010 at 4:20 pm
I think that Clare thinks that Eli doesn’t want to sleep with her, but I’m sure he’s just worried that she’d regret it and he’s probably still got his guard up due to losing Julia. Drew needs to just back off of Fiona, because she’s obviously not into guys like that. I really hope her and Adam get together. And I hope to god Eclare doesn’t break up. They’re seriously the best thing that’s happened to Degrassi. Ahhh, I can’t believe there’s only 3 more episodes of this season! D:
Logical	 October 30, 2010 at 6:07 pm
yeah but there going on Hiatus till feb… in total they would of shown us 8 eps from the 2nd half of the season
-I Personally Really Liked Last Nights Episode. I Don’t Know What Everybody WANTED Eli To Do. If He Had Explained To Clare That He Doesn’t Think They Were Ready, Then It Would Have Been Unrealistic To The Characters. When Has Eli Ever Really Explained Anything That He Didn’t Have To? And Then If He Would Have Accepted Clare Into His House And Taken Advantage Of Her He Would Have Been Seen As A Jerk. I Think The Way They Portrayed The Characters Was Ok.
– Side Note: Loved Wesley Standing Up For Himself…… That Was AWESOME :)
Hayley Masters	 October 30, 2010 at 6:29 pm
With Eli and his whole crammed locker situation, ( I know this may be stupid and farfetched.) but does anyone think Eli might be a hoarder?
ok ppl i was the very first person to come up with that!! just sayin
lmao not even. bitch i coined the phrase ‘eli is a hoarder’
musicrox526	 October 30, 2010 at 9:51 pm
i think that might be part of that… did u realize that there was sad-ish music playing at that part? and also, eli had this horrified expression on his face like, ‘Oh my God plz dont tell me she saw it’. im writing a post about it. check it out plz! but still, the hoarding may be part of it… weird…
o really cuz if u check in the comments i believe i was the very first 1 to state it srry bitch gotta be faster then that to keep up :)
Hayley Masters	 November 1, 2010 at 9:39 pm
lol, no reason to get testy. I was just wondering if anyone shared my opinion.
does anyone know if theres a promo for umbrella part 2? i saw the “only 3 episodes left” one (seriously, that went by ridiculously fast, probably because we’ve had as many episodes but fewer storylines than normal, because they’re 2-parters), but i dont know if there was promo for just next week’s episode.
there is 1 from Much Music. I often look 2 youtube 4 promos since im from the U.S. :)
What do you mean by that went by fast? There’s only been 5 episodes haha. You do know that there’s only 3 episodes left till February?

[…] Degrassi Promo Pics and Discussion Thread: Umbrella, Part 1 So I’ve decided to change up the whole review thing for Degrassi for Season 10. Instead of doing reviews for […] […]
The waits better be worth it. i mean, i love Eclare, but honestly, i cant stand waiting a whole week waiting or the nxt episode! and re-watching the same episodes over and over again is NOT going 2 help! i mean, i started watching Degrassi because of Eclare! and then, after the 3 new episodes, we have 2 wait until FEBRUARY for new episodes! honestly! :P
btw what happened to all the people that used to call me a bitch on this site? damn. this is no fucking fun anymore..
BITCH!………in the most un angry tone possiable lol i know its not the same but hey, i tried

Facultybob paid them a e-visit and respectfully told your fans to not call you a female dog in language that would be deemed as ‘colorful.’
/jittery from watching SAW marathon.
Maybe that’s how Julia seduced Eli.
Why the hell is Degrassi ending part of the season in three weeks and restarting it in February??? I mean, it just started a month ago. It makes no sense
Why are you so surprised? You act like this is the first time they’re doing this. They take a break and start again next year. What, did the boiling point suddenly erase people’s memory of how the episodes used to air?
they didn’t used to air half episodes though.. that just pisses me off
Roberto	 October 31, 2010 at 6:56 pm
I don’t quite understand what you mean, but they never used to make each episode 2-parters. That’s the only change from back then.
How many of you have seen Saw VI? You know that guy in the cage with his mom? Do you think that Munro Chambers could’ve fit that role of her son?? I believe he would have because the kid sounds similar to Eli. His voice sounds similar. I know Eli would’ve flipped the switch.
/SAW is in my top 10 movies
paramore is amazing	 October 31, 2010 at 9:33 am
maybe eli is being all stalker obsessive with clare and all of the stuff in his locker is stuff that might include her…? i love eclare to death, but, i, too, think that we need some fadam. they’re fucking adorable.
OH. preview for the last three episodes? adam, “no answer.” he looked like he was gonna cry. what’s up with that? and eli saying that he feels like he’s dying? if they kill eli off (i doubt that’ll happen this early) but still.

Alli got a lot of coverage in Boiling Point due to her being on another show for the second half of the season. And while Clare hasn’t had any A plots yet this season she’s gotten her fair share of B plots (as well as standard showings in Eli, Adam, and Alli plots).
I think the problem is, mostly, that all Clare plots boil down to EClare instead of being… well, about Clare. Eli’s had a few plots this season with minimal Clare involvement. Clare can’t seem to have a plot to herself. It’d be nice if Clare got advice/help from people other than Eli during the one plot about her (and just about her). Sadly with Adam in a B-plot right now the closest people Clare has to… advice buddies are Jenna, Holly J, and the Tennors.
I do agree the complaints about all Clare all the time seem to just be ‘she got four episodes in a row.’ When that has happened before during Boiling Point. Just nobody noticed because we got instant gratification.
i’m too lazy to read your comment. shorten it.
btw, just so everyone knows, i won’t complain about alli getting screen time because she’s my favorite girl.
They get every plot! No one likes them anymore. They shouldn’t even be on the show at all anymore. Clare is a horrible character now and Aislinn is a terrrible actress!
@Sarah according to you? yeah no. i think you should get off the computer and step on a scale.
everything about your comment is wrong, idk how it’s even possible to be so fucking stupid.
they don’t get every plot dumbass, did you even read this list: http://misfitsandco.tumblr.com/post/1393249150/it-really-pisses-me-off-this-is-a-long-ranty-post ?
no one likes them anymore? tell that too munro’s 30,773 twitter followers, aislinn’s 26,368 twitter followers, eli goldsworthy’s (realeli) 8,080 twitter followers, clare edwards’s (trueclare) 6,482 twitter followers, and the 5,539 fans that like ‘eli from degrassi’ on facebook.
they shouldn’t even be on the show anymore? again, according to you? your cholesterol levels are showing.
clare is not a horrible character. she’s one of the longest running characters still on the show, and has has TONS of character development.
aislinn is a terrific actress, and i’d like to see you try and do better.
ok, firstly, everyone has their own opinion, but if u hate clare and aislinn paul so much, y are u even commenting on here? not trying 2 be rude, just wondering…
@musicrox526 i’m taking care of this.
don’t worry. it’s obvious that aislinn is flawless, amazing, beautiful, hbic, inspirational, holy deity, makes obese haters thin etc
while ‘sarah’ looks like this
There’s only been 5 episodes this half of the season and Clare has been in EVERY SINGLE ONE of them. Eli has been in more the half. Not to mention the last 2 episodes of the last half of the season were about them. The show is called Degrassi not Eclare. Aislinn is on Degrassi, not broadway so clam down. Just because I think some of the actors on the show aren’t that great doesn’t mean I hate the show, alrightyy? “I wanna spend the night… I don’t know who I am anymore! *fake cries*” It wasn’t convincing to me at all. You have way to much time no your hands to be on this site and checking their twitters 24/7. 26,000 followers, wow what about the other million people who watch or don’t watch the show. You do know a lot of people hate Degrassi as well right? You obviously are very terrible at defending yourself if you need to Google pictures of fat people and say that’s who I am when you don’t even know me. It’s actually really funny that you are that pathetic. You actually don’t even know what you’re talking about. “Clare is not a horrible actress” “Aislinn is a terrific actress”. Yea Clare is the character, nice job. You don’t know me, I could be a better actress for all you know but I’m not the one who tried out for Degrassi. & even if I’m not a better actress (which I’m not an actress at all) there are tons of people out there who are. She’s not a bad actress all the time, but in that episode and lately she has been very unconvincing. There are only 3 episodes left until February and the only characters we have seen are: Clare, Eli, Holly J, Fiona and Declan. (Drew, Adam, Sav, Ali and Jenna only a little bit).
@Sarah CLARE/AISLINN ELI/MUNRO HATERS ARE FAT RACIST HOS WHO’S DICKS WHO ARE PRESSED LIKE GEORGE FOREMAN GRILLS. END OF STORY BITCH.
‘There’s only been 5 episodes this half of the season and Clare has been in EVERY SINGLE ONE of them. Eli has been in more the half. Not to mention the last 2 episodes of the last half of the season were about them. The show is called Degrassi not Eclare.’
k, so you’re just not going to look at the damn list. keep telling youself that they’ve been in every episode, they haven’t. and in all the one’s they have been in, they’ve been supporting other characters. except for love lockdown (b plot), still fighting it (a/b plot idek), all falls down (a plot), and umbrella (a plot). just so you know, bitching about them being popular isn’t going to make them unpopular. you’re one person, and your opinions aren’t facts. seriously. who the fuck do you think you are to put words in other people’s mouths and state your opinions like they’re true. no1currz about what you think, take your hater ass and jump of a cliff.
‘Aislinn is on Degrassi, not broadway so clam down. Just because I think some of the actors on the show aren’t that great doesn’t mean I hate the show, alrightyy? “I wanna spend the night… I don’t know who I am anymore! *fake cries*” It wasn’t convincing to me at all.’
lolwut, i really have no idea what you’re talking about. i never said that you hate the show because you don’t like aislinn.. you’re just making things up to make your comment sound logical. not working btw.
‘You have way to much time no your hands to be on this site and checking their twitters 24/7. 26,000 followers, wow what about the other million people who watch or don’t watch the show. You do know a lot of people hate Degrassi as well right? You obviously are very terrible at defending yourself if you need to Google pictures of fat people and say that’s who I am when you don’t even know me. It’s actually really funny that you are that pathetic.’
besame el culo puta. i don’t give a fuck about you taking cheap shots at me. i am VERY good at defending myself, and giving reason w/ the comments i made. i put evidence in my comment of why i was right and why your a dumbass to say that nobody likes them. first off, you must be like 12 if you really think that the millions of people that watch degrassi have twitters/facebook accounts. and what does people hating degrassi have to do w/ anything. do you really just make this stuff up as you go along, or do you actually read my logic and respond to it? that fat pic was a joke, but i’m sure it was a pretty realistic one. i’m glad that you’re laughing all by yourself at my comment. if i’m pathetic, what does that make you?
‘You actually don’t even know what you’re talking about. “Clare is not a horrible actress” “Aislinn is a terrific actress”. Yea Clare is the character, nice job. ‘
what the hell are you talking about? i’m feeling second-hand embarrassment for your ass right now. did you even read my comment? i said..
‘clare is not a horrible character. she’s one of the longest running characters still on the show, and has has TONS of character development.
‘She’s not a bad actress all the time, but in that episode and lately she has been very unconvincing.’
LMAO first you say that she’s horrible and now you say that she’s not bad all the time? how the fuck do you change opinions so fast.
‘There are only 3 episodes left until February and the only characters we have seen are: Clare, Eli, Holly J, Fiona and Declan. (Drew, Adam, Sav, Ali and Jenna only a little bit).’
oh, so you’ve seen the episodes? obviously not, you’re just assuming. did you know that jenna gets an A plot in Halo? she’s having her baby in that ep. research would be good before you comment.
yuuup that’s right. try replying to all that.
oh but i’m tired of typing so if you’re gonna respond make it short, plzthx.
Your comments are so unimportant. There is no reason for anyone to disagree with someone’s opinion.
It’s funny how somebody makes a comment back to you but it is too long for you to read but when you do it you it’s fine.
I don’t need to look at a list of episode. I’ve seen every episode and I know for a fact that Clare has been in 8/8 and Eli has been in 6/8 (when Umbrella part 2 airs). It doesn’t matter if they were the main plot of the episode or not! They still have just as much screen time. (A plot doesn’t mean your the whole episode and B plot doesn’t mean that you only have 5 lines). They are still the main characters in that episode. How do you not understand that?
Yes, it’s my opinion, exactly! Just because you are an ECLARE obsessed fan doesn’t mean that your opinion is correct.
Also, if you were smart you would realize that @musicrox526 asked me why I was here if I hate the characters. That’s why I said just because I think they aren’t good actors doesn’t mean I hate the show. Lmfao dumbass.
You’re good at defending yourself? All you do in every comment is stereotype people you don’t even know! Try having an intellectual conversation instead of calling someone ugly, fat, stupid etc. If no one cares what I think, then why are you so prompt to prove me wrong? Also, if you read 90% of the comments here most of them say that they feel like there is too much Eclare, so it’s not just me.
You can’t say Clare isn’t a horrible actress. Clare is the character NOT the actress. Aislinn is the actress. Yes I know you know that but you can say you don’t like the way Clare acts, not that she is a terrible actress.
I didn’t say that everyone who watches the show has a twitter. There are millions of people who watch the show who don’t have a twitter or do and don’t even follow the characters. How do you know if they do or do not like Eclare? & for the whole a lot of people hate Degrassi part, that just proves that a lot of people hate the show, characters and…. actors. A lot of people who do watch the show think that a lot of the actors aren’t that great.
How can you say that picture is a joke if you think it is realistic? Obviously it is a joke because I am not fat, but that doesn’t make any sense. “I was joking, you’re not fat, but you probably are” .. wtf?
Again instead of replying you’re just saying Aislinn is a terrific actress and you’d like to see me do better. You obviously don’t have a comeback to my response from that before. There are thousands of people who can do better then her, even if it was or wasn’t me (but like I said I’m not an actress). Which makes my next point.
I’m talking about this part of the season, not the past! She’s not very good when she’s acting out of Clare’s ‘shell’. When she’s the good little church girl, she’s good. When she’s standing up to Jenna or KC, she’s good. But when she want’s to change completely it’s very unconvincing.
No I don’t research Degrassi. I’m not that obsessed with it but yes, from the promos and being here I know the next episode is about Jenna. Finally! I hate her character but at least it’s not another Eclare episode, but watch they will probably be the sub plot.
Honestly, I don’t really hate their characters. I just need a break from them. This feels exactly like Holly J in season 9.
Oh look at that, I did reply to everything.
@Sarah yup too long, didn’t read. bye
Too long didn’t read = your right, I have no comeback. :) You shouldn’t have started something if you couldn’t have defended yourself.
nvm. couldn’t help myself.
‘unimportant’, k. ‘There is no reason for anyone to disagree with someone’s opinion.’ bitch there really isn’t. like that’s really gonna stop me from calling you out.
‘It’s funny how somebody makes a comment back to you but it is too long for you to read but when you do it you it’s fine.’
IKR!11 SO FUNNI!! no. i’m purely just tired of this conversation, but now that you’ve commented back i’ll just deal.
‘I don’t need to look at a list of episode. I’ve seen every episode and I know for a fact that Clare has been in 8/8 and Eli has been in 6/8 (when Umbrella part 2 airs). It doesn’t matter if they were the main plot of the episode or not! They still have just as much screen time. (A plot doesn’t mean your the whole episode and B plot doesn’t mean that you only have 5 lines). They are still the main characters in that episode. How do you not understand that?’
you’re wrong, so apparently you do need that list. i understand completely, but like i’ve said, the writers are gonna keep giving eclare episodes. and you can keep complaining about it. the weird thing is, this is where our conversation started, and now it’s drifted off to a bunch of little arguments. so i’m done w/ this part of the discussion. keep complaining about their screen time, it might drop you some pounds.
‘Yes, it’s my opinion, exactly! Just because you are an ECLARE obsessed fan doesn’t mean that your opinion is correct.’
you iz wrong. i’m not an eclare obsessed fan, you obviously haven’t seen some of the other people that comment here. i never said MY opinion was correct, the way you said yours made it seem like you were typing facts.
‘Also, if you were smart you would realize that @musicrox526 asked me why I was here if I hate the characters. That’s why I said just because I think they aren’t good actors doesn’t mean I hate the show. Lmfao dumbass.’
what part of this makes me a dumbass? you didn’t say you were replying to sarah, you mixed it in w/ your reply to me.
‘You’re good at defending yourself? All you do in every comment is stereotype people you don’t even know! Try having an intellectual conversation instead of calling someone ugly, fat, stupid etc. If no one cares what I think, then why are you so prompt to prove me wrong? Also, if you read 90% of the comments here most of them say that they feel like there is too much Eclare, so it’s not just me.’
PREACH. i dose not have intellectual conversationz i mofckin call pplz fat itz wut i do k. so you can be butthurt about me calling you fat, idc. i’m prompt to prove you wrong because you are wrong. simple as that. i find that most of the people on here just agree with each other. but if you look on other degrassi site’s and other boards and stuff, you’ll actually find that the people who like eclare have some pretty logical reasoning.
‘You can’t say Clare isn’t a horrible actress. Clare is the character NOT the actress. Aislinn is the actress. Yes I know you know that but you can say you don’t like the way Clare acts, not that she is a terrible actress.’
lmao you’re retarded. i didn’t say clare is a horrible actress. i said aislinn. go back to my comment and talk to me after you actually read it.
‘I didn’t say that everyone who watches the show has a twitter. There are millions of people who watch the show who don’t have a twitter or do and don’t even follow the characters. How do you know if they do or do not like Eclare? & for the whole a lot of people hate Degrassi part, that just proves that a lot of people hate the show, characters and…. actors. A lot of people who do watch the show think that a lot of the actors aren’t that great.’
you said that the numbers are small because of the millions of people that watch the show. fact: there are over a million people that watch the show, less than half of them have twitters/follow the characters, so i really wouldn’t know how the percentage of the people that don’t like them are. but i never said i did?
‘How can you say that picture is a joke if you think it is realistic? Obviously it is a joke because I am not fat, but that doesn’t make any sense. “I was joking, you’re not fat, but you probably are” .. wtf?’
i didn’t say that you weren’t fat. i said that i was joking, but it was probably was a pretty realistic joke. so i am calling you fat. get it?
‘Again instead of replying you’re just saying Aislinn is a terrific actress and you’d like to see me do better. You obviously don’t have a comeback to my response from that before. There are thousands of people who can do better then her, even if it was or wasn’t me (but like I said I’m not an actress). Which makes my next point.’
there’s always gonna be someone better than her, but they won’t BE her. and she is the one that’s on degrassi, not the ‘thousands’ of people that are better. so if you’re gonna trash her for being a bad actress, don’t compare her to people that aren’t even relevant.
‘I’m talking about this part of the season, not the past! She’s not very good when she’s acting out of Clare’s ‘shell’. When she’s the good little church girl, she’s good. When she’s standing up to Jenna or KC, she’s good. But when she want’s to change completely it’s very unconvincing.’
your opinion. don’t agree, but w/e.
‘No I don’t research Degrassi. I’m not that obsessed with it but yes, from the promos and being here I know the next episode is about Jenna. Finally! I hate her character but at least it’s not another Eclare episode, but watch they will probably be the sub plot.
idk how to reply to this. except for lot’s of eclare haters would rather have eclare than jenna. i’m shocked.
‘Oh look at that, I did reply to everything.’
cool. want a metal?
You said.
YOUR the one who needs to go back and read your comment.
that’s all I need to say.
REALLY?! i came on here at 12:00 noon and u two r still fighting? its been about 5 hrs! ur arguing over a stupid little problem and ur getting nowhere! and dont tell me 2 shut up cuz i’ll be on here till u 2 stop acting like little kids! just both of u stop arguing about this topic and move on with ur lives!
‘You said.
what the fuck don’t you get? clare isn’t a horrible character, clare is one of the characters that has been on the show since the earlier seasons, as opposed to the new characters that just came this season. clare became a character in season 7/8. i’m not fucking talking about aislinn idiot.
Because this whole fight is over the fact that my opinion is we have tooo much Eclare and that lately Aislinn hasn’t been a good actress. So how can I think Clare is a good character if I think Aislinn is a bad actress!?
‘Because this whole fight is over the fact that my opinion is we have tooo much Eclare and that lately Aislinn hasn’t been a good actress. So how can I think Clare is a good character if I think Aislinn is a bad actress!?’
k, let’s go back about 800 comments ago.. you said, ‘Clare is a horrible character now and Aislinn is a terrrible actress!’
i simply responded to what you said by saying, ‘clare is not a horrible character. she’s one of the longest running characters still on the show, and has has TONS of character development.
tell me what you don’t understand. explain this bullshit.
I JUST told you. If I don’t think Aislinn is a good actress, then I won’t like her character! So you can’t tell me that Clare is a great character if I don’t even like the person who portrays her.
Why are you imitating me?
Because it’s funny..
@Sarah we weren’t even talking about you not liking clare because you don’t like aislinn.. you said,
and because you’re a dipshit, you thought i was talking about aislinn not clare. but i was talking about clare, so i corrected you. then you started talking about not liking clare because you don’t like aislinn? why are you bringing up a whole different topic?
Clare is played by Aislinn. Aislinn plays Clare. The acting from Aislinn effects the way I like Clare. The way Clare is portrayed all depends on Aislinn. It does matter. It’s the same thing.
@Sarah I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU’RE SAYING. but that wasn’t even what we were talking about..
Uh yea it does. This is what the whole thing is about. The fact that Aislinn isn’t a good actress all the time and that I don’t like Clare’s character sometimes because of it. (Besides the fact that Eclare is every plot). Just drop it. I’m tired of fighting with someone with a low IQ who can’t understand anything.
@Sarah oh so it totally makes sense to be talking about my comment being wrong (you thought i was saying that clare is a bad actress, which i wasn’t so i corrected you), and then the conversation switches over to you not liking aislinn?
seriously? https://degrassiblog.com/2010/10/29/degrassi-promo-pics-and-discussion-thread-umbrella-part-1/#comment-22616 your reply to this comment makes no sense..
‘I’m tired of fighting with someone with a low IQ who can’t understand anything.’ so am i. don’t be a bitch if you can’t take it.
Sarah	 November 1, 2010 at 6:29 am
Go back and read my original comment dude. The last sentance… “Aislinn is a terrible actress”. I’m pretty sure that isn’t “switching over” since that was the original statement.
idonthaveaname:)	 November 1, 2010 at 5:01 pm
@Sarah we originally started arguing about that, but then it drifted off onto ‘i need to check my sentence’ or something like that. so then i corrected you and said that i didn’t say aislinn was a great character, i said clare. then you started talking about not liking aislinn.. why has your mind been up your ass the entire time we’ve been talking?
Your comment does not make any sense whatsoever.
@Sarah it does. your head is just up your ass, like i’ve said before.. either that, or you’re retarded?
Yup, that’s it! My head is up my ass, that’s why your comments don’t make any sense… alrighty then
Your original comment said “i didn’t say clare is a horrible actress. i said aislinn. go back to my comment and talk to me after you actually read it.”
then you said..
“so then i corrected you and said that i didn’t say aislinn was a great character, i said clare. then you started talking about not liking aislinn..”
If your going to fight me on something stick to one story.
@Sarah ‘If your going to fight me on something stick to one story’
nah. i have about 15 different stories i’d like to tell.
kaos133	 November 2, 2010 at 4:57 pm
@sarah, god will u just GTFO. we herd you the first time u said how horrible clare & aislinn are. now STFU cuz ur wasting space with your repetitiveness
I hate how Julia ends up in a lot of coversations when Eli and Clare are talking about their relationship. I know if i was Clare I would’ve been uncomfortable if he was talkin bout how julia would spend the night a lot. Clare must’ve been hurt by that. Eli just needs to learn to let go. And i found it funny how Eli’s like “you know julia?..” and Clare’s like “Your old girlfriend!” haha. that was funny. but, seriously Eli needs to concentrate more on Clare instead of Julia.
Zman	 October 31, 2010 at 1:08 pm
I have never really been a big Eclare fan, but I really liked their parts in Love Lockdown and Umbrella. Although I think that they need to give other characters a turn. Darcy should have come back it episode it would have made it so much better.
I really love Fiona and Adam they seem like such a better couple than Drew and Fiona.
The Dave part was cool. GO WESLEY. You showed Dave who was boss.
I liked the
Sorry forget the I liked the
ah i love eclare. i love every part of eclare. eclare makes the world spin and the sky blue. eclare makes me happy when i’m sad. i insult eclare haters to pieces. i’m watching degrassi right now, and guess what? it’s eclare. ECLAREUMBUS DAY? WHAT ARE WE CALLING THIS
haters stay pressed.
oh btw there’s another much music promo, a different one
hatz	 October 31, 2010 at 3:31 pm
@Matt don’t bother. @idhan can’t defend themselves !
@Sarah no one was even talking to you, so step the fuck off.
Obviously. Degrassi is pretty much only Eclare these days.
degrassi isn’t degrassi. it’s called eclare now. you must respect.
Then you should probably get off of this ‘Degrassi’ site and go find an Eclare one.
@Matt too comfortable. i think it’s funny that you’re taking my comments seriously.
If it wasn’t serious, then it’s a joke. Well your comment wasn’t funny one bit.
@Matt it wasn’t serious. but it wasn’t a joke. i’m interested in how not funny my comment was. come closer and tell me moar..
hatz09	 October 31, 2010 at 3:30 pm
Ohhhhhhhh Goddddd, I can’t wait for next Friday.
I can’t wait for Eli to have a meltdown when that lame-o friendship club cleans out his locker (if that’s what really happens). He probably keeps a bunch of Julia Junk in there. Maybe he’ll be so angry with Clare that he gives her watch back.
Then then then! Clare will come over to Eli’s house to give the watch back and apologize and when’s she sees his room, she’ll be like “WHAT!” because it will be so messy and filled with Julia Junk. And she’ll be like, “Bitch, get over her. I’m here now. Take your clothes off.”
And then they’ll make outttt. :D Thus, that still from that Eli promo where they’re making out on his bed.
Eek. <3
STOP IT! y are u 2 still fighting?
C’est d’ bizarre en haut dans ici
srry, come again?
@musicrox526 it’s weird up in here
funny lol! :)
Wait, what do you mean still fighting?
@Matt-
@Sarah and @idonthaveaname:) were fighting 4 like…5 hrs. and i sorta got annoyed…
Ohh, I didn’t even see a comment from Sarah.
lol its ok @Matt! :)
http://community.livejournal.com/dtngobsessed/54343.html
new promo.
@idonthaveaname:) thx 4 the promo! :)
“Here’s what I want, Clare.”
Oh my God. He’s not breaking up with her, IS HE?
“Taking her place in your bed.”
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.
Ava	 October 31, 2010 at 7:28 pm
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.
Reesa	 October 31, 2010 at 7:12 pm
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m more excited for the Dave/Wesley plot than anything else in this episode.
Bethany	 October 31, 2010 at 7:40 pm
Dave is a jackass.
I’m pretty sure in the promo it shows Wesley getting tazed by Dave… so yeah, that’s not cool man.
I’m really tired of him trying to fit in, I’d rather much have a good friend like Wesley who will be friends with me no matter how I am as opposed to a group of people who will only like me when it benefits them.
And wow, FADAM!
I see lotsa chemistry there.
I’m glad Fiona is interested in Adam… I don’t like Drew.
And EClare, some reason that comment Clare made me think they will end on bad terms again, LOL. They will probably have a make-out session or something in Eli’s room and the day after she says that. I don’t know, I think that’s how it’s going to go down.
And I’m really happy we’ve been getting a break from Jenna, I really cannot stand that character. LOL
I am so gonna punch Eli in the no no place if he breaks up with Clare.
But damn. This is the first time, I think, that I have pretty much no clue how a plot is going to go. They usually reveal so much in the promos that you’ve already got it figured out.
Galbert-Kun	 October 31, 2010 at 10:08 pm
I’m sorry, but Fitz already did that with his knee. Go to Plan B
Ava	 October 31, 2010 at 10:24 pm
He still has enough left for it to hurt.
Lola	 November 1, 2010 at 9:54 am
Ok…like everyone else has said I have never been so into a Degrassi couple like I am with EClare! But Clare was very…VERY annoying in these past episodes. All this running around crying and trying to act like a badass was just annoying! I’m surprised that Eli is still around. I hope in the next episode she realizes that the parents are separating and there’s nothing she can really do about. Plus she needs to calm down before she looses Eli who is shown to be very caring and patient with her!! I’m just sick and tired of Clare’s whining at this point
joy	 November 1, 2010 at 2:25 pm
Before the boiling point came out and every one was discussing that promo shark in the water I predicted Adam and Fiona! haha It’s cute how he calls her princess. I think they might actually make them a couple. Because to fully grasp Adam and what his character stands for they gotta show what relationship for him or some one like him might be like, and the difficulties that would go along with it. Like thinking of it really.. The first couple comments at the top that were debating over Adam wanting a physical/sexual relationship, I think when Fiona told him that he was relieved because he likes her and was asking for Drew so of course he wouldnt want Drew doing anything with her. And judging on the promo for part 2 when Drew says “How can she be interested in a guy like you?” means Fiona likes him back. I dont think Adam would mind anything sexual, like if he were doing it to her. BUT I highly doubt he would want anything sexual done to him because Adam has the womanly parts. And since he believes that he really is a guy he wouldnt be turned on by any forplay with his Va J-J. It would more than likely be very awkward for him and he would hate it.
Now Eli and Claire, I read a comment up there about Claire normally wouldnt throw herself at Eli like that saying “Iwanna spend the night with you.” And no, normally she wouldnt, and yes that is completely out of her character. But I think it works here. She’s making a transformation, her family is in shambles everything they taught her she is questioning including her faith. Shes mad at god, shesaid “If Jesus loved me so much why would he want me to go through this?” So I could see her breaking her abstinence as a sort of revenge or out of spite. Also something her mom said triggered her running out the door to Eli’s “I just wish I wasnt so afraid of taking a risk back then, oh well too late for regrets now right” Claire was worried that like her parents, her and Eli were too different to last. And we all know Claire was never much of a risk taker, so I think she also did out of being desperate for their relationship to work, she thought that maybe if she took a risk for him like one as big as having sex with him that maybe they would be together longer. Eli says no because he can tell that shes not thinking rationally, I think part of him wanted to say yes and i think another reason for him saying no is that he is a hoarder and his room/house must be a disaster or something. in the promo for part 2 hes digging through the garbage in an outrage looking for something and in part 1 we all seen his locker. I think thats why hes having a nervous breakdown in the promo. Could be wrong though.

Not trying to be rude but I think Kary is getting lazier and lazier with this review blogs.
Kary	 November 1, 2010 at 4:52 pm
If someone can find a way to magically expand days to more than 24 hours then I’d have more time to do things for this site. It’s not like the old days when I had the ability to spend every waking moment of my free time here, or to spend hours and hours working on a review or to simply do degrassi-related things. It’s Monday, and I still haven’t even had time to sit down watch Umbrella Pt. 1 yet. :-/
no1curr. kary is a busy fucking person. he ain’t gonna drop shit for you. deal.

@idonthaveaname:) I am so sick of your bullcrap. You attack and belittle anyone and everyone who doesn’t agree with you. Everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion, but that doesn’t mean that whoever doesnt follow your opinion is stupid or ignorant. I’ve read your comments, and your name-calling and insults are completely unnecessary. I love how your write “i’m tired of typing so if you’re gonna respond make it short” when you just wrote a friggin essay in response to someone else’s comment. I didn’t realize our comments always have to please you, oh great one. You act as if you own this site, when NEWSFLASH, you don’t. Sorry to break it to you. It seems as if you love the attention you’re getting and you get some sick satisfaction of creating arguments and insulting people. WAKE UP. This isn’t a contest to see who come up with the best comebacks. I don’t understand why you can’t respond to someone’s comment without inputing your hatred and irrationality.
I honestly don’t care if you reply to this or not, I’m not looking to create a huge argument. I’ve said what I had to say, and won’t say anymore regarding this matter.
i love you too

I was watching the preview for next weeks episode and it said that there were only going to be 3 episodes left. Does that mean all season? If so, this was a REALLY short season. Just looking for some answers…
Is this your first season watching Degrassi, or did the boiling point make you forget about the break that Degrassi and almost every other television show goes on?
Roberto	 November 1, 2010 at 7:00 pm
Apparently the Boiling Point spoiled too many people. :/
why r u always so mean about that stuff?? u get mad at ppl just cuz they say stuff like ever since the boiling point i cant wait every friday to see the episodes and then u say that shit: is this ur first time watching degrassi cuz blah blah is what they always do chill out dude its pretty rude
and also btw they do not always take a break after only like 8 episodes i dont think they’ve ever done that before looking back now so get ur facts straight they do go on break but not after such a short period of time and especially not after they just got back to it a couple weeks ago
LovelyVerity	 November 1, 2010 at 10:22 pm
I agree with you rachel, people could be a little kinder when explaining stuff to people. You can inform people of the facts without being rude about it, its good to give your opinion, but there is such a thing as being too opinionated.
On that note, Although airing schedules are different every year, for the most part they follow a similiar format. The average episodes is 24, and they air through out the year, with the season ending at the start of summer, in order to stretch out those episodes through out the year, they do have long hiatuses where they don’t air new episodes for awhile. There could be several hiatus through out the season. So them just airing 8 episodes sounds normal. You also have to remember, in season 10 all the episodes have part 1s and part 2s, so although 8 episodes will air in total, it actually feels more like 4 since we have to wait for part 2 for the conclusion. So it gives the impression the we are getting less episodes then normal.
And for the record, I have been watching degrassi since 2001, I was around 12 or 13 so I think that gives me some credibility.
Rachel	 November 2, 2010 at 12:25 pm
thanks lovelyverity :) and i respect ur opinion
How as asking someone if it’s their first time watching Degrassi rude? lmfao.
@Rachel, yes they do usually take a break after 8 episodes. Sometimes it’s fewer, sometimes it’s more.
@matt u fuckin bag on every person and tell them there obnoxious ppl who took the boiling point for granted if they just damn well say they cant wait for friday to get here. i didnt particulary say that asking ppl if this was there first time watching degrassi was rude in general but the fact that ur obnoxious ass even gives a shit enough to tell them there being obnoxious just for saying that. u did it to my friend and ive also seen u do it to like 2 other ppl so why not instead of caring to call someone obnoxious but to just leave a fact like saying they cant wait till friday alone cuz god only knows why ud care enough to respond to something as simple as that
What are you talking about? I haven’t bagged on anyone here unless they fight me on my opinion. I haven’t said anything about someone talking the boiling point for granted. You said that I was rude and can be a little kinder. All I did was ask if it was her first time watching Degrassi because Degrassi and 90% of every television show ALWAYS goes on breaks for the holidays. I did say that anyone was obnoxious either. Get your facts straight before you attack me. I did it to your friend and two other people, really!?…. show me. But you know what, it is true! I just like everyone else loved having episodes everyday but it can’t be like that all the time. When people say that they hate waiting a week for the episodes, that’s fine because I agree. But when people start complaining every two seconds that they have to wait, it does getting annoying because that’s the way it is and has always been and there hass nothing we can do about it. But this comment has nothing to do with waiting a week to see an episode. You took my comment as rude when I was simply replying to someone about the break that Degrassi ALWAYS has because I was unsure if they have always watched Degrassi and just forgot about it because of the Boiling Point like a lot of people or if it was their first time watching. You attacked me over something simple as that..
LOL! bullshit, that is bullshit cuz u certainly did tell someone they were one of those obnoxious ppl who took the boiling point for granted member dominique??? u specifically told her she took the boiling point for granted. go back to i believe it was the post for dont let me get me and go to ur fucking conversation with her where u said thats funny u said ur prepared to wait but u said u cant wait till whatever blah blah, dominique was the friend i was talking about so guess what bitch u tell me to get my facts straight well theres ur proof so my facts must be pretty fucking straight now arent they?? now i understand u might think now im bagging on someone for something very simple which i called u out on but when u mess with my friends u mess with me dickwad so the person who still needs to get there facts straight is u cuz u dont even remember ur own conversations u have with ppl dumbass
hahahhaha wow. You and Dominique are the same person! Why are you writing under two different names?
wtf?? r u high why in the hell wud i be 2 ppl dumbass?? ur so fucking stupid dominque is the 1 who saw ur comment and showed me her posts back in dont let me get me so i decided i wanted to give u a peice of my mine the fact that ud even come up with something like that is so shallow i cant even tell u, now u may be 2 ppl on here which is why u cud come up with something as stupid as that but im certainly not besides why u tryin to change the subject anyway?? o thats rite becuz u no i just totally called u out so now u have to make it look like im the bad guy here what a fucking dumbass u r lol 2 ppl thats hilarious that u wud think someone wud stoop that low
o and by the way u cant fake an email address u dumbass i no this becuz i accidently typed in mine wrong 1 time and it told me invalid email address so who looks the idiot now?? lmfao
I don’t know why you would even deny it, I caught you. You don’t have to type in a real email address so I don’t know what your talking about by saying ‘invalid email’. All of a sudden dominque doesn’t talk anymore but your here. You have the same spelling and gramar mistakes, you said go back to “i think it was dont let me get me part 1” yet you know exactly what her ‘fight was about’.
Here is just a little proof :) :
Also look at the first sentence of dominiques comment. “You even care enough”. You say that all the time. So I’m done replying to you, or dominique or whoever you really are.
wow u r just making yourself look even more like a dick lol u obviously have not tried to purposly type in ur email address wrong just to see my proof. and by the way u fuck its very possible for our writing to look alike becuz i told u we were friends so weve obviously seen each others writing enough to pick up things after eachother that and i just told u she showed me the posts for the last time u dumbass which is why i no pretty much word from word u prick the fact that ud be able to pick all that up is a pretty good observation so i’ll give u that lol maybe u shud be a scientist but also heres just a little question to think about since ur not going to respond back to me: if im really the same person why can i give a reason for everything u called me out on?? i no its not really possible to give proof for some of things but just remember the fact i cud give u a reason for everything plus saying ur not going to respond back is also another way to tell the person ur scared to keep going back and forth and that u no there gonna have a good comeback so u end it there and what do u expect me to do when u call me out on something im not?? just say yep u caught me when i no for a fact its NOT true so stick that in ur juice box and suck it and it was pleasure talking to u and im good cuz all i no is were not the same person u do with what u want with my way of prooving to u u cant fake an email address and i hope u enjoy umbrella part 2 lol :)
Mattt	 November 3, 2010 at 6:48 pm
Look I typed in the wrong email address and it still works! I used a different email address and there are now 3 t’s in my name. So I have no clue what you are talking about.
I have friends too but we don’t use the same words, make the same spelling mistakes, use the same exact abbreviations, use the same curse words, etc. Also, ‘Rachel’ didn’t comment a few weeks ago when ‘Dominique did’ and now ‘Rachel’ is commenting and ‘Dominique’ isn’t. It has nothing to do with ‘being smart and being a scientist or whatever’ you can easily tell by having a conversation with someone if it’s the same person or not. Unless they completely change their conversation and typing skills. I have no clue what you are talking about when you say “Why can’t you give me a reason for the things you called me out for”. I never called you out on anything. Your attacking me for calling out ‘Dominique’ not you. So now you are admitting it’s you? No I’m not scared to fight back, I DONT WANT TO! This is a Degrassi blog not a chat room. It is very annoying and rude, especially to Kary that he runs this blog and people have to immaturely fight all the time. Yes I know I am part of the fight but I am just defending myself. Call me scared or whatever I don’t care (there isn’t any reason to be scared over an online fight when I don’t know the person, especially since we’ve been fighting for a while. I just see no need for it) but I don’t know you and I don’t see the point of replying to your pointless comments. I never called you out on anything and I have no idea what you are talking about by proof. I am the one who showed you the proof.
So now that I proved that you can fake an email address, what is your comeback?
Who purposley types in their email wrong!?
haha I didn’t change the email of that comment I changed the one at the bottom of the comments.. sorry lol
first of all i said to do it on purpose only to prove it and u have to be lying becuz i did it and it didnt work stupid so i dont no what in the hell ur talking about and second of all good job not responding i hope u relize no matter what u say im always gonna tell u its not true cuz its just not its time to face facts man let it go cuz theres nothing u can say thats gonna make me go to ur side how is it possible it dosent work on my computer and it does on urs?? its not if i cud prove it to u i wud but theres just noway so like i said have a nice day and enjoy umbrella part 2 :)i have more important things to do in life then to sit here and respond back to u, the truth is u obviously dont want to except the fact u cant fake and email address and ur the 1 lying i hate having to deal with the fact theres nothing i can do to make u believe me but i guess im just gonna have to deal now arent i… o well i can live with myself :) so i no i said that whole thing about not responding back but im bored of u so why dont we just get back to discussing degrassi ok hun? plus im more mature and will actually follow up on what i say
You did it below and it did work. I did it also and it worked for me so I don’t know what your smoking. “Maybe it was your brother or sister!” Oh, okay I did it so come up with some excuse to prove me it’s wrong, alrighty. I’m the one lying over something you did? It’s also funny how I said I was done responding and you said I was scared and didn’t have a comeback but now you’re the one saying you’re done fighting. You are most definitley not mature at all.
hahaha @sarah & @rachel shoud date. they’re both equally annying & rediculously stupid. ur caught rachel, just quit fighting it cause u look like an idiot. ferreal
What did I do!?

I found a description for Halo Part 2….
Main Plot
A secret party is just what the beleaguered students of Degrassi needed. Some might find love, some might not… and some might go to the hospital.
I found this on Degrassi wiki!
this has been out for a while now…..
Junior	 November 1, 2010 at 6:49 pm
I think that Eli freaks out in that promo because in one of the new episodes he opens his locker and its a mess in there and Clare notices that. I think that she decides to clean it for him but throws something away that probably had sentimental value to Eli. Its just what I think.
Ava	 November 1, 2010 at 7:01 pm
This version is much better:
bullshit… these promos r bullshit not interesting enough they just dont have me at the edge of my seat like they used 2…
The promo says “three is a hormone charged teenaged fantasy” “I think we’ll your number 3” “It wouldn’t be Degrassi any other way”.
They should make Fiona, Adam and Drew be the first 3 some. Lmao.
uhmmm… why isnt darcy involved in the divorce? isn’t she claire’s sister? wouldn’t she be a part of something as big as the divorce? although… i kinda forget what happened with darcy.
LovelyVerity	 November 2, 2010 at 12:29 am
The actress left the show because she got a part on 90210, which is taped in LA i believe. I mean in a way it could be a very possibility that she could have a guest apperance, but the way I look at is that she doesn’t work for degrassi anymore.
What is sad is that by being in 90210, she has become famous by default, (I don’t understand how a show like 90210 could have more recognitions then Degrassi, I wish Degrassi was on public television so it could get a bigger audience) so she probably has a very busy schedule, so I think the chances of her making an apperance are very slim…
I surprisingly enjoyed this episode. I’m glad we got a glimpse of Eli’s parents and where his “eccentricity” comes from. But thats enough of Eli and Clare. Just give me some more Ziley, Wesley, and Fitz. With a side of Owen & Bianca.
person	 November 2, 2010 at 3:35 am
so, i guess its inevitable that the C plot in Halo will be Anya and Wesley’s date? (im definitely not saying thats a bad thing, i just remembered that we are supposed to get that storyline before the hiatus, since it was in the teennick promos)
glow vomit	 November 3, 2010 at 4:57 pm
you know what? i DO think eclare has gotten a lot less interesting than it was. i’m not the sort of person who is interested in seeing teenage romance and whether characters are “meant to be,” but i appreciate well-written character interactions, and i was therefore very much in favor of eclare. at the start, eli was constantly snarky or silly or creepy, and he was so interesting to watch every time he was on screen. i feel like a lot of that has dwindled.
also, so far i don’t like how they’re handling the julia thing because it just seems kind of, well, boring. i am actually hoping it is explored more and that eli’s freakout is related to it, because otherwise, the julia plot hasn’t done anything other than making eli hesitant to date clare (although he did anyway) and making clare insecure.
or maybe the truth is i’m most interested in eli when he’s fighting with fitz….
Sam	 November 3, 2010 at 6:39 pm
cant wait for umbrella part 2!!
do u guys think eli and clare r kinda like anya and sav were lol?? or at least going to be cuz there families have different beliefs, they always get mad at eachother about something, and then they say things like well maybe we cant be together and then they make up with eachother lol anybody with me on that 1??
Morgan	 November 3, 2010 at 7:00 pm
No. Eli and Clare are just annoying.
Oh look, It works ^
lol that cud be anybody for all i no u cud have told ur brother or sister just to do that and type in their email address just to back u up but nice try
WTF, why would I have my brother or sister use their email address. Look at your comment above me, you used a different email ^
Redrose11	 November 3, 2010 at 7:39 pm
Yeah, it sounds a little similar with the whole religion thing. Except, Sav’s parents didn’t want him with Anya at all because he is in an arranged marriage. Clare’s parents don’t seem like they mind that she is with Eli. The only thing they believe is that you shouldn’t have sex outside of marriage and it doesn’t look like Eli is going to pressure her to have sex. Eli and Clare are fighting more now because she is stressed out with her parents divorcing. I think their fighting is mostly due to Clare questioning her beliefs now that her parent’s have decided to break their vows to each other and make all these changes (moving, not living in the same house as both her parents, etc.).
relic	 November 3, 2010 at 7:45 pm
Where the heck are Riley and Zane?! Are they going to do the annoying thing straight shows do where they pretend they’re ok with gays as long as it’s romantic and superficial? Like gays don’t deal with other things than coming out. So frustrating >.<
pocksuppet	 November 4, 2010 at 7:01 pm
This isn’t going to win me any friends around here, but 1.) I couldn’t care less about EClare 2.) I’m sick of Clare (which is a shame, because I liked her before Season 10) and 3.) Clare can’t pull off the bad girl thing. Please writers, stick to goody-goody Clare!
You made one friend from that comment :D
make that too. i dont HATE eclare but i wana know whats goin on with little miss 15&pregnant.
Dragon	 November 4, 2010 at 8:32 pm
Halo part 1
Jenna and K.C. are civil, and maybe there’s still something there. But is a more thoughtful, reliable boy interested in her, too?
A secret party is just what the beleaguered students of Degrassi needed. Some might find love, some might not… and some might go to the hospital
Ok so it kinda seems like a remake of Rock this Town. Where JT died. Also its the season 10 fall finale so something big is probaly happening as in a degrassi death or at least a serious injury ( “some might go to hospital”). Maybe some1 brings gun to party. Bobby shoots declan? idk or adam (fionas possible bf)? idk im just excited. Also no new degrassi til feb after this :(
Welll first, It’s not the Season 10 finale and second (for the hospital part) don’t forget Jenna’s pregnant..
Dragon	 November 4, 2010 at 10:12 pm
I know i said season 10 “fall” finale cuz the rest of season 10 resumes in february. Also i forgot about jenna lol >.> good catch that might be it
AztecQueen2000	 November 4, 2010 at 10:18 pm
If she has her baby now, it will be a preemie. Premature babies can have all kinds of health problems. I don’t think they’ve ever dealt with a pregnancy resulting in an unhealthy child. (We don’t know what happened with Bella before she was 2, and we only assume Liberty’s son was healthy after the adoption. Also, she had her baby toward the end of the year, and was three months along at the beginning of the year, so I assume he was born full-term.)
Sorry haha I didn’t see the ‘fall’ part lol and I read it like five times to make sure I wasn’t gonna say something that you had right. But @Aztec: it would be a great storyline, but how do you know exactly how far along she is now?
Danica	 November 5, 2010 at 1:18 am
PREDICTIONS:
so tomorrows ep with clare& eli: eli drops his papers, clare tells him to calm down, he can’t believe it? then we know clare and adam go into his room and are surprised, and in general clare wants to sleep with eli. & he tells her he rejected her bcuz he cared about her but clare thinks hes lying and he isn’t over julia so she asks for her dad’s watch back﻿ (breakup?)
other scenes we have seen are: eli “i think i’m gonna die”, eli in morty while its raining, and adam/clare/eli leaving a fenced area (?)
also in tomorrows episode: ADAM VS. DREW! whoo will win? so we know drew tells adam jealousy’s a bitch, he asks if adam doesn’t think fiona will find out, but adam obvs still likes her and he.. throws her a party? ummm… also the C plot about dave shooting wes with a taser. yawn..
so for Halo (1+2) we still have﻿ to wrap up the Sav/Holly J/Declan thing AND the Jenna/Sav/Holly J thing! whew! and there is some jenna/KC scene, AND we need to finish anya/wesley’s date! action packeddd :)
