'Degrassi' Is Making A Comeback & You Could Spot Them Filming In Toronto Soon

"School is back in session." 😎

Calling all Degrassi fans: the school bells are going to ring yet again at Canada's most beloved fictional high school because the show is officially in session for a brand new season.

WarnerMedia Kids & Family announced on January 13 that Degrassi will be coming back on screens for 10 hour-long episodes, and is expected to launch in the US on HBO Max next year in 2023.

Since the show is being produced by WildBrain Studios, "the series and Degrassi library are distributed worldwide." However, no word on how to watch in Canada has been shared just yet.

The upcoming high school drama will be a reprisal of the original series, and it will follow around a group of teens and school staff "living in the shadow of events that both bind them together and tear them apart," the announcement reads.

"The show travels deep into the hearts and homes of diverse, complicated characters, as they struggle to find their new normal, reaching for hope, redemption and love," WarnerMedia Kids & Family officials wrote.

Filming for the show kicks off this coming summer so Torontonians might be able to catch a glimpse of some behind-the-scenes action around the city.

Former Degrassi alums shared their excitement of the show coming back, too.

Lauren Collins (a.k.a. Paige Michalchuk from Degrassi: The Next Generation) tweeted out to her followers shortly after the news: "If any streamers are interested in the pilot I wrote about this exact moment in my life, it's available!!"

Sean Cameron, played by Daniel Clark on Degrassi: The Next Generation, also tweeted that the news is "official".

HBO Max also got the rights for the entire Degrassi: The Next Generation series (yes, all 14 seasons), which will be available to their streamers by this spring, too.

Somebody pass the popcorn.
