I seem to recall reading somewhere that certain Degrassi episodes were
banned in the US. I'm from Canada so I have no idea which episodes they
were. Can someone tell me the ones that were not shown?

Thanks,

Brian

The only ones I know of for sure are the two abortion episodes ïn
season 3 called "Accidents Will Happen" (3-14 and 3-15). I've also
never managed to catch episode 2-20 called "How Soon is Now"; but
I'm not sure if that was banned by The-N or just never replayed to
my knowledge.

Thanks, Ken. I appreciate it! It was just one of those things I read in a
popular magazine while waiting at the dentist's office. We happen to have
brought it up in another forum, hence the reason I asked the question.

Such a great show!

So let me get this straight: US audiences can handle watching 2 underage
boys kissing, we can handle scenes of date rape, but we can't deal with the
consequences of consensual hetero sex? What's wrong with this picture?
