I feel compelled to portray the gigantic nerd that I am, and express my love forboth your brand of humor, and the? focus of it. It makes me want to ask you on adate so I can force you to watch terrible B movies and live action witness my ownMystery Science Theater 3000. Like Craig to Angela, apparently I aim for creepy. 

Anyhow, I thought I’d bring to your attention (if you haven’t noticed yet) that inthe new theme song to the show, Every other character gets a montage of theircoolest scenes in the past seasons (i.e.

Liberty embarrassing the shit out of
herself when she stretches her face on the video announcements) EXCEPT AdamoRuggiero. I can’t help but think it’s because they decided that they changed thetheme song so much already that they felt obligated to keep the logo appearing in areally awkward place (on a middle school girl’s ass, on a gay kid’s back) without abunch of blue squares flying around to distract you from the fact that you ARE infact watching Degrassi. Either that or I just have too much time on my hands.

There’s no reason to force me to watch terrible B movies with you, I actually enjoy doing that.  I also like watching Legends of the

Hidden Temple and making fun of it, so that will give us something to do when we only have half an hour to make fun of television.

 

Now your Degrassi insight is fairly intriguing.  I never actually realized that Marco gets the shaft (hee hee)  when it comes to a montage.  One could say its because he has the logo, but I say its because he doesn’t have any memorable moments.  Really the only one is when he and Dylan kissed, but Degrassi has shown them kissing so many times that its old hat.  Its getting to the point where its more common to see a same sex couple kiss then a regular couple.  The producers were probably had the theme sequence finished except for the Marco montages and were planning on adding some later.  However they never got around to it and decided they didn’t care, so now Marco doesn’t get a montage during the opening theme.
