Are You Afraid of the Dark? is a treasure trove of guest appearances given the nature of the show, but here in a season 1 episode are a set of twins played by Daniel Clark of Degrassi (plus a bonus small part in Juno) and Emma Taylor-Isherwood who played Josi Trent in Strange Days at Blake Holsey High.
Thanks for the submission, knowsie!
As previously noted, we don’t know much about life on Degrassi but I Spy A Famous Face reader lollercoaster sure does, and we are loving all of these submissions!
Here we have Shenae Grimes. She may be more recently known as Annie on the new 90210 but before becoming part of the Beverly Hills based show, she was hanging out with Cassie Steele on the Candian TV drama, Degrassi: The Next Generation.
For Drake, Degrassi: The Next Generation was not the best he’s ever had. After his role as Jimmy Brooks, he skyrocketed to fame as one of the biggest hip-hop/R&B/pop stars of the year.
Thanks to lollercoaster for another excellent submission!
We may be three of the only people who have never actually watched Degrassi, but according to an excellent tip from lollercoaster, before becoming Katherine Pierce and Elena Gilbert on The Vampire Diaries, Nina Dobrev was a “teen mommy” on the drama that many people love/love to hate (depends who you ask).
If you’re a child of the 90s like we are, chances are you remember the Disney Channel/Family Channel series In A Heartbeat. Chances are you also remember it as that-show-Shawn-Ashmore-was-on-after-Animorphs. But how many of you remember it as that-show-Lauren-Collins-was-on-before-Degrassi? Yep, that’s right. Degrassi’s Paige Michaelchuck got her start on In A Heartbeat as Val’s twelve-year-old sister Brooke Lanier.
Thanks to thefishtank for the tip and for the very kind words! :-)
