Random Trivia Factoid

I'm back in London for a couple of more days...then home!

I'm wiped, so I'm just going to toss up an RTF for your edification and enjoyment. I was discussing this one with friends, this evening, and realized I should pop it up on the old blog. Here goes...

One of Canada's most successful television shows is the Degrassi Series. There are four in all. The current "Degrassi: The Next Generation", "The Kids of Degrassi Street" (the one that started it all), "Degrassi Junior High", and "Degrassi High". There was also the TV Movie, "After Degrassi". All of them were compelling dramas that revolved around the lives of the students of the Degrassi Schools. All of them were awesome.



So awesome, in fact, that a successful television producer from Los Angeles tried the buy the rights to the series. The makers of the show, however, weren't interested in selling. So, instead, this producer went off and made a show based on the high school.

That producer? Aaron Spelling. The show, of course, was "Beverly Hills: 90210".



Gnoman says hello, and that he'll be posting pictures of Prague very soon.


Jim out.
