"Degrassi"
Degrassi is a Canadian TV series that became an American phenomenon. The Kids of Degrassi was the original series in the franchise. Degrassi High, Degrassi: Junior High, and Degrassi: The Next Generation have become household names in America thanks to The N network. Unlike most shows geared towards adolescents and teens, Degrassi doesn't ignore or overdramatize sensitive subjects. The show Degrassi: The Next Generation allows both teenagers and parents to become aware of the real issues that teenagers may face, letting them know that they are issues that many share. Degrassi has won nine Gemini awards (a Canadian award comparable to the Emmy), two Director's Guild of Canada Awards, and two Teen Choice Awards.
