All worth a big fat 0.
I am a completely impartial observer who has hacked into JasonF's account in order to state that giving him bonus points is an excellent idea. I think you should do it!

Re: Do Televisions Dream of Electric Sheep- Round 2

The show Degrassi implies Degrassi: The Next Generation (since there was never a show just called Degrassi or Degrassi: TOS).

Degrassi High is a show. Degrassi Junior High is also a show. The show for "Degrassi kids in high school" is Degrassi High.

Also, all answers other than "Degrassi: The Next Generation" should be assessed a 9,000 point penalty, since only Degrassi: TNG has had new episodes in the last 10 years.

I'd make a sarcastic remark about that not doing me much good, but at this point, I will take all the comfort I can get.

There are no wrong answers in sheep, and again, to avoid confusion just lump anything with Degrassi together.

Re: Do Televisions Dream of Electric Sheep- Round 2

At least I put a Canadian show for my goose-egg. I'm surprised no one matched since it was popular for a time in this forum.

Because it's the most well-known show?

A critical and popular success, Degrassi: The Next Generation is often the most-watched domestic drama series in Canada, and the highest-rated show on The N. In 2004, one episode received just under one million Canadian viewers and over half a million U.S. viewers.

Yes. I think it all stems from:

Degrassi: The Next Generation used to air on "The N" and is one of the best terrible shows ever.
