Wildly inappropriate, probably not-safe-for-work, and definitely spot on, enjoy this hilarious — albiet not perfect (See: Asbergers joke a ten-year old might find funny) — spoof of Canada’s most popular export.

With this week’s news that 31 year-old hottie Trevor Donovan will be joining the cast of 90210 as a new (ahem!) high school student at West Beverly High, this TV Addict thought now would be as good a time as any ask: Would you rather…

(a) Watch really good looking albeit slightly older actors playing high school students on some of your favorites shows such as 90210 and GOSSIP GIRL. Or (b) watch more age-appropriate actors, more along the lines of the ‘DEGRASSI model,’ a show which has become famous for casting actual high school students to play fictional ones.

The B**** of a living it ain’t. Especially when you get to spend a Monday night in Toronto hanging out with the cast of DEGRASSI and Toronto’s cast of SPRING AWAKENING.

But wait, there’s more! Rest assured, this post isn’t simply yet another excuse for the TV Addict to demonstrate his mad paparazzi skills. Really, hear me out.

Knowing full well that many of our fellow TV Addicts are Totally F***** thanks to this B**** of an economy, we’re thrilled to be able to offer up our very own Economic Stimulus Package. Tonight only, see the cast of DEGRASSI in Dog Sees God for whatever you can afford to pay.

The show starts at 7:30PM, and you can buy your tickets starting at 7PM at the theater, Six Degrees, 2355 Yonge Street just north of Eglinton Subway Station. For more on the show including pics, bios and video visit: dogseesgod.ca

As regular readers of theTVaddict.com know all to well, this TV Addict never misses an opportunity to shamelessly flaunt his random celebrity encounters. Which is why we’re sharing this photo with DEGRASSI’s Adamo Ruggiero (Marco), who was on hand at Six Degrees in Toronto last night to help promote his upcoming role (alongside fellow DEGRASSI stars Jake Epstein, Mike Lobel and Paula Brancati) in the critically acclaimed off-Broadway smash DOG SEES GOD, opening in Toronto March 13.

TheTVaddict.com will go to almost any length to score an interview. So when we heard DEGRASSI star Nina Dobrev was in our neighbourhood filming a movie. We decided there was only one thing we could use to attract her attention in the hopes of scoring an interview.

Now I know what you’re thinking. Clearly you utilized your dashing Brad-Pittesque good looks? Thanks, but there’s where you’d be wrong. We utilized the only sure fire weapon at our disposal. The one weapon in our arsenal guaranteed to attract the opposite sex. Enter the TV Addict’s adorable dog MAC.

The moment we walked by, Nina was not surprisingly hooked. And lucky for us, kind enough to take a few minutes out of her busy shooting schedule to answer a few questions (As long as she got to play with Mac after!)

Were you a fan of DEGRASSI before you auditioned for the show?
Nina Dobrev: I was of course familiar with the show and heard all the hype, but I didn’t really watch it because I didn’t have the time. Actually I am not the biggest TV person, I’m really into school, sports and gymnastics.

When you were cast on the show, did you immediately go rent the DVD’s to catch up?
Yeah, when I got the role I literally borrowed seasons one through five and watched them all back-to-back within a month or two.

And your favorite character was?
Jake Epstein.

It must have been nerve-wracking joining such an established show. How nervous were you?
As nervous as you can get. Meeting new people, making a good first impression, seeing the studio. It was strange. Just realizing that this one studio has everything — the mall, houses, the school.

How challenging was it to play a high school student with a child? How do you get into the mindset of a teenage mom?
It was challenging because it’s not me. I went to a lot of web sites that dealt with teenage pregnancy. I read a lot of stories about girls having to go through what Mia did [Mia is Nina's character on DEGRASSI]. There’s the alienation factor and there are all the stories and rumors, having everybody judge you. It isn’t easy.

What was it like dating JT on the show? Did you know prior to the start of the season that your boyfriend was going to die?
I didn’t have a clue! It was so strange. I started the show, got to know everybody, became friends, it was great. Then one day, Cassie Steele [Mannie] called me up after the read-through and was like, “JT died!”. I thought she was kidding, just joking around. But she’s like, “No, no, no, JT died!” I was shocked and was thinking, how could they not tell me? He’s my boyfriend on the show! And then it was like, did they really not like me that much? Are they trying to… were they trying to get rid of me!

Is it hard talking to friends, family, [intrepid reporters] about the show? Knowing that you don’t want to reveal anything big that may ruin a surprise.
Definitely — and last season I didn’t know that! I was so nervous, and once I think I mentioned an upcoming story-line that I shouldn’t have because I was so nervous. But you learn quickly and I’ve gotten much better at knowing what to say and what to keep a secret.

With that in mind, what can you spill about the new season?
Last season the show started to sponsor Feed the Children, so that’s going to play a big part in the show this year. There’s a plan to take some of the cast members to Africa where we will hopefully help build a school. It’s going to be amazing.

What challenges would you like to see Mia face this upcoming season?
I really want Mia’s stories to challenge her this season. Something that takes me outside of my comfort zone as an actress.

Every DEGRASSI star has a great ‘fan experience’ story. What’s yours?
Okay, my strangest fan experience was when I was in LA with Miriam [McDonald] and Cassie [Steele]. We were in a restaurant, and I went to the washroom and at one point when I walked out of the stall, this girl took a picture of me with her cell phone! And then after that, another girl came up to me and said, “Why did you kill JT?!” Obviously I was shocked… I didn’t kill JT! It’s a character and my character’s fictional. It was very strange.

The TV Addict is thrilled to report first that actor Daniel Clark will soon be trading in his signature wife-beater for threads more befitting an 1890’s German high school student. Word is that Clark is set to make his Broadway debut in the Tony Award winning musical SPRING AWAKENING come January 2008.

While SPRING AWAKENING will mark Clark’s Broadway debut, fans may be surprised to learn that it will not be his first musical experience. Clark started his career as ‘Chip’ in Toronto’s BEAUTY AND THE BEAST.

Don’t believe that DEGRASSI’S most notable juvenile deliquent started his career off as a singing tea cup. Check back tomorrow for some photographic evidence.

On Monday the N celebrated it’s 5th Anniversary at the Marquee in New York City. While theTVaddict himself couldn’t attend, he did obtain some exclusive party photos. Click the link below to check out more of your DEGRASSI favourites, and congratulations to the N for five fantastic years.

Thanks to CobraSnake for the Pics!

Five-hundred teens from the New York City area will participate in the event. Teen specialist Dr. Tiffany Brown will also be on hand. According to a press release, the town hall “will focus on the issues of pressure, identity and love and how teens today vs. yester-year are grappling with young adulthood.”

The event will be recorded, and clips will go up on the teen-aimed site AOL Red and The-N.com, the home of the online home of the N Network where Degrassi is broadcast in the US, in mid-May.

As I sit here in LAX waiting for my flight to take me back to Toronto (moment of silence) I can’t help but wonder two things. First off, why don’t the LAX employees look nearly as good as the Heather Locklear/Blair Underwood ill-fated NBC series advertised. And two, since I’m going to be offline for quite a while, I better leave you all with one hell of a blind item to keep you entertained (and guessing) throughout the day.

So here’s what theTVaddict learned in Los Angeles. One of your favourite boys (or is it girls?) from DEGRASSI TNG was this close to having their career launched into the stratosphere. Turns out the actor (or is it actress!) in question was second choice for one of the leads in that little Disney Channel movie you may have heard of called HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL. Post away with your guesses as to who almost transferred from Degrassi High to East High.
