Does anyone remember Heartbreak High?

Link. What kids used to watch pre-Degrassi. Anyone else remember it?

I do!!

You say pre-Degrassi, I say pre-Skins. ^_^

It was a lovely, gritty show. I heard they hired actual street kids for alot of the smaller parts to give the show that edge of realism.

Yeah, isn't it screening in the evenings on ABC 3 these days?

Oh i remember that! love that show.

(i think you mean Degrassi The Next Generation, Degrassi was way back in the 80s)

I do get the WAM channel (the network that airs it in the US) so I may have to check it out.

I remember this! I didn't have a clue what was going on (too young), except that one plot about the teacher who couldn't control her class and then maybe flirted with her student a lot. I was thinking about this the other day!

Of course I do! It's so 90's. Not much to say about this series, it's just another stereotypical Teen Drama but the Australian setting made it a bit less predictable, as far as I remember.

Yes I used to watch it. Btw, watching the first few episodes on Youtube again, I see shades of Sister Act 2: aside from the obvious fact of it being set in a poor inner-city school, the first episode has an initially weak and ineffectual teacher establishing her authority, while the second episode has a Queen Bee student rapping in the playground with a teacher coming along to stop it.

I remember watching this a lot on BBC TWO in the UK, usually came on after Fresh Prince.
