Goldi should have gotten more seasons. She was such a great character

[@residentevil4life]

i wish they had kept her longer on the show, especially considering how few minority member characters are on the show and given a strong plot at all

[@melmichael1865]

You can see the difference between the actors who have been on for 5+ seasons and the ones who joined during next class. Soma still seems very in love with the show and excited to talk while the others seem almost bored with their interviews.

[@CarolsVideos]

I agree, but at the same time I have to try to put myself into their position. Like a lot happened to each character. I totally forgot maya was with miles and I bet Olivia forgot a bunch of things too haha. It is their job, I couldn't imaging talking about my job that I've done for 5 years especially if I'm over it and ready to move on. But I still get where you're coming from.

[@Rhedd30]

Mel Michael I couldn't watch Eric's it was tough Ana and Lyle seemed okay Olivia I kind of get her charactwe went through so much

[@ChillyMilly908]

a lot of the interviews were done suuuper early in the morning. So some of them were just tired

[@markusfranklin5259]

ButterfleeEllie not most of them were after they were done shooting so they tired because of that

[@karanolan]

Adamo needs his own talk show. I would watch it religiously.

[@slimequeenminecraft5032]

She is so beautiful

[@BlackCornmeeal2]

I'm just watching these videos wondering..why is Adamo still single? He's so freaking adorable ❤️

[@yadrielcolon2032]

i wanted more of goldi i wanted more seasons of character development she's in like 20 something episodes thats not enough! #goldideservesbetter

[@tarynmichelleart]

"What's gay people? Thanks Degrassi!" I'm dead

[@kjdnyhmghfvb]

Thousands of view and not 1 dislike, I didn't think this was possible anymore, but you did it Soma!!

[@cass7955]

I love goldey

[@alaneyw9312]

i respect Goldi so much

[@KickinSapphire]

Soma is such a delight! I hope to see her on more tv/movie projects soon!

[@hannahely7731]

Omg she's so gorgeous! I love her sooooooo much!

[@realemmcee]

I love that Goldi is like a combo of Emma and Liberty.

[@FiReArNoK]

So glad Soma and I share the same sentiments regarding Zane 😂😂😂😂

[@lukaselijahephraimlarkins1467]

Funest red couch ever! Stefan and adamo omg!

[@myonna1312]

I'm so in love with her

[@AmazingGracer45]

I love her but I would have appreciated it more if they cast an actual Muslim or hijabi (like on skam) for Goldi, I know many who would love to act but rarely come across opportunities. That being said, Soma is really great and so gorgeous, I wish she had gotten another character or that Goldi was on the show longer.

[@sophiak8554]

Grace Amazer As a watcher of skam and a Muslim girl myself also I was disappointed that an actual muslim hijabi wasn't cast but if they had casted an actual hijabi they wouldn't have been able to interesting scenes like Goldi getting her hijab ripped off or her deciding temporarily to take off her hijab

[@vic-lucy]

Soma is actually Hindu, Indian. I know it isn't the same thing, but it is in my opinion better than having someone who is for example Scottish play Goldi.

[@AmazingGracer45]

sophia k Vert true, that's why I'm not super angry or anything, but I still think they could have cast a real Muslim, maybe one that isn't a hijabi. I myself am Muslim but don't wear that hijab, so an actor that was that way too could still pull of those scenes.

[@AmazingGracer45]

r5 anything Hmm I get what you mean and I'm all for poc getting roles, but we're not interchangeable. I'm def not angry though, I just hope in the future if they have another hijabi or Muslim character they cast someone. :)

[@vic-lucy]

Grace Amazer I'm Hindu and I definitely understand that we aren't interchangeable, and I understand what you mean, but I'm just saying it's better then someone who doesn't even look the slighted bit Muslim.

[@municipalwaste16]

soma is so cute

[@piasid74]

They should do Nikki Gould

[@Rhedd30]

Human Shark thinkthey did everyone during Ricordos he mentioned Richards interview its just not uploaded yet

[@Rhedd30]

Karla Biatch I'm sure he did they just upload the videos weirdo cuz she was still filling during this one but Eric was done filming during his

[@Sochilinda]

Shannon Cook a.k.a. Zane is still incredible hot. Beautiful man

[@mogiebridgette9115]

Can Soma tell us where she got her shoes from?

[@adriannapaige6845]

Are you ever going to continue the straight talk interview series?

[@aleah-mariebrown7468]

They should do Chelsea Clarke next

[@soccerlevi99]

I'm hoping they don't do Chelsea. I want her to be on season 5.

[@1000millerm]

they probably won't since she didn't graduate

[@adamdavis9455]

I first knew her from the movie it's a zoo in here

[@Rymar101]

Goldi was an interesting character. Still all her feminist club did is take stuff away from students, not make an actual difference

[@UhHuhHer321]

What is the song title

[@justicesmalls1312]

wait so does this mean if i'm 18 but look 15 i have to be in grade 11?! 😩

[@taylormilan7554]

are they gonna continue degrassi next class or no? sorry if i'm late

[@AmazingGracer45]

Taylor Hall I believe so, they still have some of the characters left who haven't graduated.

[@demiwashere]

Taylor Hall yes January 2018!

[@wildwitchwest]

What's the name of the song they use in the beginning?

[@jazzhzr7444]

Gavroche Belcher black or white by Olivia scriven i think

[@demidemi33]

Gavroche Belcher jnn

[@jahneenval9304]

Women were not repressed the most come on in history really African Americans

[@kittiexxworm]

Jahneen Val i understand where you coming from trust me. But maybe she meant it like Women weren't able to vote. Black man could vote before any women.

[@jahneenval9304]

Mikey Mic no they couldn't African Americans were not able to vote man or women

[@ellieduffshmee5561]

Jahneen Val I totally agree with you, but I think she was referring to the term of gender equality and as females had less equality compared to men that's where the term feminism originates from.

[@internetjunkie1075]

Ellie Duffey African Americans weren't even counted as people when voting. Soooo

[@ChillyMilly908]

Jahneen In America, yes this is true. But in the history of the whole entire world, long before America existed. WOMEN have been oppressed more than anyone else.
