has abstract	"A New Start" is a two-part episode that serves as the premiere of the Canadian teen drama series Degrassi High. Both parts aired on CBC in Canada on November 6, 1989, and on PBS in the United States on January 13, 1990. The episode was written by Yan Moore and directed by Kit Hood. In the episode, which sees the characters of Degrassi Junior High now begin high school, Erica Farrell (Angela Deiseach) discovers she is pregnant following a summer romance and experiences the social consequences of having an abortion; she finds herself at odds with her anti-abortion sister, and protesters swarm her outside of an abortion clinic. The sub-plot involves Joey Jeremiah (Pat Mastroianni), Archie "Snake" Simpson (Stefan Brogren) and Derek "Wheels" Wheeler (Neil Hope) being subject to a hazing campaign by Joey's former enemy Dwayne Myers (Darrin Brown). The episode was made in reaction to the abortion debate of the late 1980s. The writers of Degrassi had thought of making an episode on abortion as early as Degrassi Junior High but ultimately avoided it due to the extremely polarizing nature of the topic. Although the writers predicted it would generate significant controversy, the episode was largely praised for its portrayal of both sides of the abortion debate, and it was regarded as a reaffirmation of Degrassi's status. In the United States, its final scene, in which Erica and Heather fight through a crowd of anti-abortion picketers, was removed entirely by PBS; a decision which angered director Kit Hood. (en)
