[@jesserivera2043]

At some point the show stopped being about the characters, and resonating with a younger audience to teach them lessons, and started being more about the storylines and keeping up with their contemporaries as far as shock value and outlandishness goes. I can imagine the less soapy characters fading out for that reason alone. I think this phenomenon coincides with this following question: "at what point did Degrassi stop teaching you something about growing up?"

[@pleaseshutup7053]

When they went to the soap opera format having 40 episode seasons

[@jaydenbrown8517]

i think seasons 10-12 did a pretty good job with having the characters growing into themselves. i think season 13 is when the show started caring less about growing up and more for the shock factor (though i do think mayas class was pretty good in season 13)

[@DeadpoolNegative]

While there are a lot of things I liked on the show afterwards, Emma and Spinner getting married was just wrongheaded in every way possible. I know part of it was because Daniel Clark did not want to return, but having two characters who have barely interacted over a decade suddenly fall in love like that felt like a pointless way to send them off. Also, Jane deserved a second chance.

In season 1, in Ms Kwan’s 8th grade English class, there was a guy named Oscar who had speaking roles in maybe 3 or 4 episodes. He was seen in PE class, the Basketball and Soccer teams in seasons 2 and 3, but was never mentioned after season 1. The next black hole character is Sully, who had a few no-name appearances in season 2, but was most prominent as a side character in seasons 3 and 4. He was the one dating Manny just for shits and giggles, and bought Jimmy’s stolen mp3 player from Spinner. Sully would have graduated in season 5, but then again his grade was never mentioned. Sulky was a total stranger.

[@icekoldv]

Okay maybe I might sound a bit dramatic, but I hated the way majority of the poc/black actors- actresses characters were portrayed in this show. It upset me how once we began to get introduced to them, they never hold any interest storylines unless it’s degrading of either the following: pregnancy, sex, scandal, or racial discrimination/profile. For instance, look what happened to Hazel. She was listed as a primary main character, & they had great potential to make her storyline draw to the audiences. Same as for Dallas, Connor, Danny the list goes on. Disappointing the only main focus they actually gave grace to as character development was jimmy brooks (drake) but that’s bc he’s half-black😒 idc I said what I said.

[@DaGuyTy1]

I 100% agree and I always hated how Chantay never really got anything either. She was always just off to the side gossiping or being nosey. I mean it was nice that she was the head cheerleader tho, that was different but I definitely preferred something more prominent than that for her.

[@karabartley]

I kept waiting for Hazels moment, the racist storyline was not it, she had a lot of depth and deserved more storylines. Same with Shantay, I wanted to see her character growth and we never got that 🙃🙃

[@Littlemissdidi]

This show is literally the woke wet dream of many people these days lmao, you’re way off. Danny got lots of character development and actually became a lovable character in comparison to Derek. Dallas is great too, even the only dad that wanted to be a dad and willing to step up. Unlike Jennas baby daddy. Liberty had been around for ages, lots of character development and loved as hell. Connor got some storylines, then disappeared a bit into the background but with his relationship got more screentime and became peoples fav couple. Pregnancy, sex, scandal, was literally the most common theme throughout the show for almost every character. Not just the black ones. The show went downhill, it stopped being about mostly lessons to teens and more about those things. Manny, Liberty, Jenna, Mia, Clare, Lola all got pregnant. Spike and the twin in the old one ofc. Scandals were all round with the amount of cheating, relationships with teachers, betraying friends etc. You’re just focussed on the black characters, so you’re ignoring the rest. But it’s all the same. For the POC characters and the white ones. The show isn’t racist, it just sucks 😂

[@jocelynvillanueva6148]

Love this! Was hoping I would see Chris on this list -- you know, the rapping DJ that was one of Emma's earlier love interests!

it took me a minute to remember that Chris was the guy who beat-boxed and wore headphones. I don't remember him having a personality though

[@ArceanaLindsey2092]

Honestly another good example of a black hole character is Terry, because after the situation with Rick, it’s like we’ve never seen her again, just Paige speaking bits and pieces on her, here and there.

[@ShadowYetSleepy]

At least they mentioned that she switched schools unlike these characters that just vanish without a word

[@jeremiahinyangotu4023]

5:37-5:38 Arleen probably got removed, because Devyn Nekoda (the actress that played her) got typecast onto this disney channel show called "backstage" around 2016

[@PlayfulFruitLPer]

Some of them quietly disappeared because they weren't popular with the audience when they were introduced and Degrassi was testing the waters with them. Other characters like Kendra WERE INTENDED to become part of the main cast, but the actress who played her, her parents decided that it was a bad idea for her to be a part of Degrassi and pulled her out.

[@COSun25]

Booooo!! The writers, at least, SHOULD'VE mentioned about Kendra switched schools.

[@PlayfulFruitLPer]

[@Seedney-ny1od]

Sad fact the actress how was Kendra's friend died in 2019

[@Phrankster163]

From everything that I've read and heard, the girl who played Kendra left the show so abruptly because her parents weren't happy at all about their daughter being asked to be a part of a sexual storyline in the series, which I'm guessing is the Manny pregnancy storyline that was supposed to go to Kendra's character instead, with Toby taking Craig's place as the would-be father. Of course, that's all speculation on my part and it could also have been Paige's rape storyline that was meant for Kendra (since those were the only sexual storylines in season 2 and 3), but I can't really imagine them putting someone who's so much younger and far more innocent than Paige was through that kind of hell, when the storyline was more than hardcore enough as it was. For many of those young actors, however, I can imagine that it was simply too hard to make their personal lives work, when they also had to be in the series and at the end of the day and especially with such young actors as we're talking about here, it's infinitely more important that their lives off-screen works for them than how their character was written off. At least, that's how I see it.

[@prescott0913]

If any of you watched the Jane Mulcahy video, she mentioned how there’s basically no one from the Class of 2016. There’s several characters that COULDVE been had there not been outside circumstances (Tori being held back in grade 4, Jonah being held back, Cam’s death). I think they dropped Jack because she was actually the only one in that class. It would’ve been weird to have her graduate by herself and/or make another set of characters that only get a 20 episode arc for one year of high school (Next Class 1&2).

[@SkyeID]

According to the Degrassi wiki, the class of 2016 were Tiny, Grace, Zig, Tristan, Miles, Winston, Maya, Jonah, Zoe, Goldi, Esme, and they graduated in Season 4 of Next Class. I guess Jack, Tori and Cam would have been there if circumstances were different.

[@macymacks]

I agree with you about how they introduced characters just to date the main cast and when the relationship was over, they disappeared. I really didn’t like that. I also agree that Blue was pointless and boring. He was just like Damien 😒 he dated the main friend group, got no storylines by himself, and disappeared

[@DaGuyTy1]

Darcy could’ve been on this list to. I know the actress went on to 90210 but how can Claire go thru sexual harassment, cancer, get pregnant and then have a miscarriage all without her sister Darcy or ANY mention of her. So weird😂

[@TheFrancescanater]

She is not a black hole character. They wrote her off that she moved to Africa to volunteer since the actor moved on to 90210. They even made it a plot point because Peter and Clare were receiving gifts from her

Darcy moved to Africa, but she never came home to support her sister through cancer treatment, which you would expect a sibling to do

[@Jfleming321]

Before Leia’s actress decided to leave, the writers were intending to make her character a recurring/guest character from the second part of Season 10- the first part of 11. After she left for college they did want to get her back for the graduation episode but she declined as she was busy with school to guest star

[@samirascarlett]

I think the Charlie arc was realistic because since she was dealing with a high schooler, she got over it and disappeared. It makes sense to not to have the closure because it was immature to begin with.

[@gabepollock1641]

Jack being written off upsets me to this day. Her character is pretty much one of the only decently written depictions of a polyamorous person I’ve seen in any media, and she had way more of a story to tell beyond Imogen. The downfall of TeenNick/The N and the Netflix transition really hurt Degrassi, but what likely did in a lot of these character is the episode count. 10 episodes works for narrow-focus serials, not for large-cast dramas that want to give everyone time in the sun.

[@SkyeID]

Degrassi was a show that had 22-44 episodes per season at various times over the years, so Netflix cutting it down to 10 was criminal. Jack was a terrible girlfriend to Imogen, and I wasn't sad that she vanished

[@mikeg8768]

I think Kendra was removed because the actress parents weren’t comfortable with a story line they had for her and Toby

Honestly what’s interesting with Derek’s character is there’s like very, very subtle unstated negative development with him. Did anyone else ever notice how he really started going downhill as a person after he framed Danny for shoplifting and the two stopped really hanging out? There’s implications there that he really just threw out the rest of his morals and started hanging with the worst people after that.

Cool video but just some feedback, you can really benefit from doing a bit more research and add some more context to some of these. The actor who portrayed Julian, Stephen James, left the show to move to LA prior to season 12 being filmed. He ended up later having the lead role in Race, the Jesse Owens biopic as well as Selma which won an Oscar. The actress who played Keisha, Latoya Webb, did a story time KZbin video about her time on the show and said she was simply cut and never called back with no explanation. Most of these other characters you listed were minor characters in seasons 13/14 that would've only made sense in Next Class if you'd seen all the previous seasons, they were kind of in between trying to make it a stand alone show and a continuation which is why it failed and so many characters/plot lines were dropped.

[@catholiccontriversy]

I remember when the first cast graduated we followed them in college for a little while, and then they just kind of stopped. Like, I get that Degrassi is about highschool kids and them being in college is against the idea, and the only reason we followed them to college was because the writers didn't really plan on the series continuing so they didn't start establishing younger characters (or that's the impression I get), but it's still kind if "black hole" since they weren't exactly written out of the series. On that note a lot of the returning Degrassi High characters (Archie "Snake" Simpson's generation) were kind of black holed. I know Joey was mostly "Craig's father figure, when Craig leaves he has no purpose," but Joey was pretty "strong secondary, part of the community with his used car lot," and as far as I remember he just kind of "stopped appearing."
