Degrassi Talks

Degrassi Talks is a Canadian non-fiction documentary television miniseries and part of the Degrassi franchise created by Linda Schuyler and Kit Hood. Running six episodes from February 29 to March 30, 1992, it featured actors from Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High taking the role of journalists and conducting interviews with other teenagers and young adults across Canada on various topics addressed by the series such as abuse, substance addiction, homophobia, and teenage pregnancy. It combined candid and man-on-the-street interviews as well as relevant archive footage from the television series and on-screen statistics. Each episode was hosted by an actor whose character had some relation to the focused subject.

The theme song was composed by actors Stacie Mistysyn and Keith White. Companion books based on each episode were also published by Boardwalk Books, prefaced with biographical interviews of the actor who presented the original episode. The show received critical acclaim, but proved less popular with teenage viewers, who felt the information provided to be redundant and at times perpetuating certain stereotypes. Broadcast after the television movie School's Out but filmed before, it was the last Degrassi series until the franchise was revived in 2001 with Degrassi: The Next Generation.
