  • The eighth season of Degrassi: The Next Generation premiered in Canada on 5 October 2008, concluded on 30 August 2009, and consists of twenty-two episodes (18 episodes, and 1 movie). Degrassi: The Next Generation is a Canadian serial teen drama television series. Although only one school year passed in the story timeline since season six, season eight is set in the fall semester of the year in which it aired. Writers have been able to use a semi-floating timeline, so that the issues depicted are modern for their viewers. This season depicts the lives of a group of high school freshmen, juniors, seniors, and graduates as they deal with some of the challenges and issues young adults face such as sex, sexism, sexual identity, financial difficulties, drug use, mental disorders, cyberbullying, child molestation, stress, hostage situations, racism, and psychological abuse. Thirteen actors are added to the ensemble cast, while fourteen cast members have either left the series or been dropped from the main cast to recurring roles. The season focuses heavily on the new generation of students at Degrassi Community School, although it included storylines about those who have graduated and gone on to university. Season eight aired Sundays at 7:30 p.m. on CTV, a Canadian television network. Episodes were repeated on CTV's sister cable speciality network, MuchMusic, on Tuesdays at 7:00 p.m. In the United States, the season began on 10 October 2008 on The N, a cable channel spun off from Noggin's teen programming block of the same name. Unlike seasons six and seven, which premiered in the US, this season's premiere episode was broadcast in Canada first, with the second episode airing a week later; in the US, however, both episodes aired together as an hour-long special. As well as airing on television, the season's episodes were also streamed on the websites of CTV and The N, as well as iTunes. Production for the season began in May 2008 at Epitome Pictures' studios in Toronto, Ontario, and were completed in late October 2008. The final episodes of the season were filmed in part in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, Beverly Hills, Venice beach and Malibu and were written and directed by Stefan Brogren, who plays Archie "Snake" Simpson.

  • A oitava temporada de Degrassi: The Next Generation estreou no Canadá em 5 de outubro de 2008, concluiu em 30 de agosto de 2009, e consiste em vinte e dois episódios (18 episódios e 1 filme). Degrassi: The Next Generation é uma série de televisão dramática adolescente canadense. Embora apenas um ano escolar tenha passado no cronograma da história desde a sexta temporada, a oitava temporada acontece no primeiro semestre do ano em que foi ao ar. Os escritores puderam usar uma linha do tempo semi-flutuante, de modo que os problemas descritos são modernos para os espectadores. Esta temporada retrata a vida de um grupo de calouros, juniores, seniores e calouros da faculdade, que lidam com alguns dos desafios e problemas enfrentados por jovens adultos, como carreiras, sexo, sexismo, identidade sexual, dificuldades financeiras, uso de drogas, transtornos mentais, cyberbullying, molestamento de crianças, estresse, situações de reféns, racismo e relacionamentos. Treze atores são adicionados ao elenco, enquanto quatorze membros do elenco ou deixaram a série ou foram abandonados do elenco principal para papéis recorrentes. A temporada se concentra fortemente na nova geração de alunos da Escola Comunitária Degrassi, embora inclua histórias sobre aqueles que se formaram e foram para a universidade. A oitava temporada foi ao ar aos domingos às 19h30 na CTV, uma rede de televisão canadense. Os episódios foram repetidos na rede de TV a cabo parceira da CTV, a MuchMusic, às terças-feiras às 19:00 horas. Nos Estados Unidos, a temporada começou em 10 de outubro de 2008 e foi ao ar em seu horário habitual às sextas-feiras às 20h00 no The N. Ao contrário das temporadas seis e sete, que estreou nos EUA, "Uptown Girl Part One", o episódio de estréia desta temporada, foi transmitido no Canadá em primeiro lugar, com "Uptown Girl Part Two", exibido uma semana depois; nos EUA, no entanto, ambas as partes foram ao ar juntas como uma especial de uma hora. Além de transmitir na televisão, os episódios da temporada também foram transmitidos nos sites da CTV e The N, e usuários registrados da iTunes Store canadense e norte-americana podem comprar e baixar a temporada para reprodução em computadores domésticos e determinados iPods. A produção para a temporada começou em maio de 2008 nos estúdios da Epitome Pictures em Toronto, Ontário, e foi concluída no final de outubro de 2008. Os episódios finais da temporada foram filmados em parte em Hollywood, Los Angeles, Califórnia, e foram escritos e dirigidos por Stefan Brogren, que interpreta Archie "Snake" Simpson. Esta foi a última temporada a ser exibida no The N, antes de sua mudança para o nome TeenNick, nos Estados Unidos. (pt)
