Get Ready For More DeGrassi

Apparently, you guys share my love for the juicy teen drama "DeGrassi: The Next Generation." The only problem with the Canadian show, which airs on The N cable network, is figuring out when the new mini seasons begin and end. Well, you're in luck, because I've got the scoop on the new episodes!

On Jan. 5 at 8:30 p.m., The N will air the first of five new DeGrassi episodes, which will see the cast welcoming a rock star and bidding farewell to a popular character. According to The N:

New episodes of "Degrassi: The Next Generation" will include a guest appearance by famed rock band Taking Back Sunday, who play themselves in an upcoming episode premiering Friday, January 12. Bad boy Craig joins the band for a one night only gig but for this recent high school grad who has taken to “partying like a rock star,” he’ll find that his new drug habit may soon get in the way of his dream career and dream girl. Finally, Degrassi fans are in for the shock of their lives on Friday, January 26 as they prepare to say good bye to one of their most beloved characters when tragedy ensues on campus.
