Team 1114 on Degrassi

[Jonathan Norris]

Congrats 1114! As I've told you before this is a huge accomplishment. To my knowledge this will be the most publicity a single FIRST team has ever received. I look forward to seeing how your robots are incorporated into the episodes.

[Akash Rastogi]

Amazing what a simple high school robotics team can accomplish when they work hard for something.


Keep it up 1114 and don't ever stop doing what you do. This is a huge deal for FIRST. Congratulations.

[R.C.]

Congrats, way to work hard.

[=Martin=Taylor=]

I'll admit watching even the opening credits of that show made me cringe... tee....n.. dra...ma..TV....... NOoooooo errrrr....

But as you say, this is great publicity for FIRST. Great job!

[GaryVoshol]

I presume no robots were harmed in the filming of this project?

[BandChick]

I had such an addiction to Degrassi, and I was so ready to give it up this season (since all the original cast is now "college students"). But I think I will give it another shot just to see 1114!

Congratulations on such an awesome accomplishment!

How did you manage to get involved with this anyway?

There was an hour long science channel documentary about 3 teams back in 2003(with 596 appearing in a brief shot).

I've seen that documentary its well done, but I doubt it reached the hundreds of thousand (probably millions) of young people that Degrassi does.

Yup, millions. According to their media guide, Degrassi regularly pulls in over a million viewers for each episode worldwide.

Wow, shouldnt those millions be doing something more useful than watching tv?

Congratulations 1114.

Just caught the episode on CTV @ 7:30pm. Good episode! Glad to see Degrassi is just as edgy as it was when I used to watch the original.

Joey Jeremiah, you're my hero!

I'm not sure if episode 805 is up yet, since I can't access anything inside "The Click" from Canada.

It's on there, but I can't figure out how to get a direct link. It's the episode "Man with Two Hearts". I found it by going to Degrassi -> Full Episodes
