I think that if a Degrassi answer comes in and it did not air in 10 years it should be a Zero

I think that for people here around the age of 30, I think the other would be more well known, because they were on when we were that age.

It was hard enough thinking of a Canadian scripted show, let alone one this decade.

Degrassi High School DOES NOT EXIST. That is NOT the title of a show.

Okay, I've come to a decision. All Degrassi answers counts separately.

I have to take a break. Find out the results in a couple of hours!

Fine, but that is no reason to match a generic "Degrassi" to "Degrassi Next Generation" instead of one of the other three.

Per the rules, wrong answers score in sheep. Reverse sheep, not so much.

I think I thought Bus was running this game when I submitted my answers.

Re: Do Televisions Dream of Electric Sheep- Round 2
I do think that all who answered with only "Degrassi" should be lumped together since obviously that was a ploy to align themselves with whatever was the top choice.

Sure it is. In fact, it is the only logical and sane conclusion a reasonable person could come up with since I answered Degrassi: The Next Generation.

I agree it is either one or the other...if you answer Next Generation score the points, if you answered generic Degrassi it should be zero

What is there to do in Delaware in the middle of the day?

Well, I guess I will go ogle women at the pool.

No, if you answered generic Degrassi it should score based on how many other people had the exact same answer.

I did say zero before reading your post (1st time) and yes that is how it should be. What I meant was the two should not be lumped together and scored as such

It doesn't match the actual shows, but it would match anyone else that said the generic Degrassi.

BTW, did anyone actually say just "Degrassi", or are we fighting about this for nothing?

A wise choice (except for the break of course).
