Eight seasons running. A cult in Canadian pop culture. Winners of the Gemini, Teen Choice and Directors Guild of Canada Awards.
And now Degrassi: The Next Generation finally boasts its first red-carpet TV movie.
But known as a “show of the people”, the season 8 finale Paradise City: Degrassi Goes Hollywood premiere last Wednesday night at Toronto’s Bloor Cinema, allowed tons of lucky special-bracelet-wearing fans bask in Degrassi glory. A free-for-all for snagging autographs and pictures from their favorite cast members, and what’s more- the opportunity to enjoy the movie side-by-side with them too.
And the word got out not only to lucky fans. Among a packed-to-the-brim theatre audience was Camp Rock 2 stars Jordan Francis and Matthew “Mdot” Finley, So You Think You Can Dance Canada winner Nico Archambault, MuchMusic VJ Devon Soltendieck and MTV Live’s Nicole Holness.

The two hour finale of “American Idol Season 8” was filled with surprises, including an awards ceremony, special guests and duets.
But the ultimate surprise was left for the end: the crowning of the winner. Kris Allen who was deemed the “dark- horse contestant” and an “underdog” by some of the “Idol” judges emerged as the winner of season eight.
“It feels good, man, but Adam deserves this,”Allen said as he was crowned the “American Idol”. “I don’t know what to feel right now, this is crazy.”

“Scrubs” fans can relax: the show isn’t over after all! It’s just moving.
After NBC heavily advertised last week’s episode, a fairy tale theme, as the series finale, many fans were confused and disappointed. It contained timeline errors and did not justifiably sum up the series.
Star Zach Braff posted an explanation in a MySpace bulletin yesterday. “I was not allowed to say it until today, but Scrubs will be moving to ABC for its final season,” he confessed. “We are currently filming the 8th and final season. The true finale of the show will air on ABC in the fall. NBC merely promoted the Fairy Tale episode as the finale, as it was the last episode they owned.”
The episode featured fan favourite Dr. Cox as the chief of medicine, though he had recently left. Braff explained that the episodes had been aired out of order due to the writer’s strike.
