We are counting down to Degrassi‘s 14th Season premiere!

On July 29, I attended the Season 13 Finale Screening party at the MTV Building in downtown Toronto.

Just prior to screening the final two episodes of the season, I caught up with a variety of castmembers to discuss what would happen in the finale and to offer a preview of what to expect when the show returns next week.

I sat down with Luke Bilyk and Aislinn Paul to discuss the idea that they are now the veterans of the series. I told them how I was a little traumatized when Drew and Clare hooked up because I always regarded their bond to be more like that of a brother and sister. Luke talked about Drew assuming the position of class president (one that neither of us expected). I asked Aislinn if she finds that she gets attached to certain pairings on the series and if she is as invested in Eclare as all the fans of the series seem to be. Luke opened about whether he thinks Bianca will always be Drew’s soulmate. Both Luke and Aislinn told me which other Degrassi character they would like to play if they had the chance and offered up a preview of Season 14.
