Dave got more episodes in season than all of Riley\'s episodes in season 8, 9, and 10 COMBINED despite the former being a Scrappy and the latter being a fan favorite. Also, Dave and Wesley get acknowledged by the show in that they\'re seen hanging out with other characters and they really do have friends. Riley gets treated the worst and they insisted on having him in his own little world and was gay bashed by Drew and never got justice for it. Also Riley was never given a plot outside being gay even though Argiris was certainly one of the more cometent actors and he was also a fan favorite. Plus if people are going to mention how there\'s not any trans characters out there (which is vastly exaggerated) then you might as well mention the fact that ManlyGays/StraightGays are still not common either and they could\'ve set a good example with Riley but no they had to make him a victim of homophobia and never get justice and seperated him off into his little world and apparently nothing he ever does is good enough to NOT get him whined at by [[CreatorsPet Zane]]. I knew a guy in high school who would\'ve benefited a lot (and still would actually) from seeing a good message out being a ManlyGay like Riley and a good message is the exact OPPOSITE of what the people who took over in season 10 did with theirs. Way more important than Eli/Clare/Drew\'s BEing Straight Problems.

Lastly, FIONA IS A LESBIAN. Why is it so hard for people to realize that the fact that to most homophobes a lesbian isn\\\'t as \\\"bad.\\\" Not only that, but like Paige and Alex (not going to talk about them becaus eit\\\'s a different show now) she\\\'s also a HOT lesbian. THE ARTICLE ITSELF notes the fact that lesbians get treated better. But finally, even then, yes, Fiona had hardly any scenes with Charlie.
And don\\\'t anyone sit there and say \\\"Well they can\\\'t get too explicit\\\" because it just goes to show that apparently you don\\\'t remember the old show very well. They\\\'ve gotten way more prudish now because they need to fit in with uptight TeenNick crap (which funnily enough, has no gay character in any of their shows).
SoYeah, the New Version of Degrassi most certainly qualifies.
