new show alert: instant star


as many of you know, within a very short period, i've become obsessed with the canadian teen show degrassi: the next generation. not only is it one of the most over the top dramatic shows around, but unlike most sugar coated teen programs, degrassi tends to leave all their plotlines open ended, allowing all the characters to stew in their experiences.

so without even watching the show, i have faith that the new show from the creators of degrassi called instant star, will be equally entertaining and offer teen angst by the glorious bucketful (with a nice dose of avril inspired grrl rock pop thrown in).

focusing on the life of teenager alexz johnson, this musically inclined girl literally becomes a superstar overnight and subsequently deals with the excitement and confusion that fame bestows on this young girl.

check out ctv's entertainment profile of this show here (click on to the video file in the right column).

hopefully, noggin will pick up the rights for US broadcast, but for now, you can only watch it in canada (or if you have really good friends that can record it for you weekly).
