Looks like he's the King.

I don't remember the moment in the gif set either, but I hope season 3 is good for Vijay. Outside of that covering Maya's music storyline he didn't really get to do much in season 2.

I don't really know what direction I hope they take him in but I can see him branching outside of his group socially. I could see him hanging out with Lola as they've got the whole thriving to be popular on the internet thing in common, her with social media and him with his cover videos.

The Vijay/Goldi moment is from Next Class 206. It's at the first meeting of that group that emerged from the Lola led protests in the reunion episode. They're talking to Shay, praising her for being so brave in standing up to the police.

Yes, I watched this episode again recently.

I just rewatched that ep. I wasn't expecting him to be more popular than Maya on social media but it was cool how Peter coached me through the thing and I too get it. I didn't really take sides but I get why Vijay wouldn't to take down his song. But Maya's right about the audience being confused...glad she fixed that up in the end. You could tell Vijay looked up to her, that's why he covered the song. My heart ached a little for him when Maya gave him the smackdown.



He looks more grown up! Hope that brings more grown up storylines for him as well.

The fairly loose and goofball dynamic of the four gamers is one of my favorites on the show right now. And the way Vijay fits in with the group, no questions asked, is also a major plus. I do hope we see more serious stuff with the non-Hunter members of the group.

He's aspiring to be the next Adamo with these vlogs. Happy (belated) sweet sixteen to Dante!

He does seem like quite the social butterfly.

I hope to see more Vijay gym class blunders. He never has a good time. Dante does comedy pretty well.

I'm happy he got to meet one of his favorite celebs. I don't know who it is but that's okay, I'm old.

Maybe it's his voice, but every time I see him I feel like he's just going to float away.

And yeah I had no idea who that was either, but good for him.

Looks like his livestream is available if you missed it today. Haven't watched - anything grab your interest?

I was in that youtube chat during the livestream.
There weren't that many people in there, so they mentioned my name a few times. (for example at @ 31:30)
I liked the moments where Degrassi related things were discussed but overall the video is skippable. Dante just isn't that interesting of a person.
I'm subscribed to his channel and have watched all his vids. He's harmless, but shallow.
& He can count his lucky stars for getting the Degrassi gig because his acting is one of the worst in my opinion.


But anyway, I came into this thread thinking about what I would like to see for Vijay's character.
So far they haven't really explored Vijay's character.
One thing that I would like, is to see him deal with is HIV.
Either being diagnosed HIV+, dating someone who is positive,
or just dealing with awareness and staying protected.

The last time that they really dealt with HIV was in Degrassi High with Dwayne Myers. (no that Griffin and Paige subplot doesn't count)
& It's still one of my all time favorite storylines/episodes in Degrassi history




I'm not expecting a Vijay storyline to be as good
but I still think it's time they revisit the issue & Vijay could be a good candidate for the storyline.
A lot has changed since the 80's, but HIV & Aids is still seen as a gay disease and while that's the not the case, HIV is definitely a problem still being dealt with within the gay community itself. Especially with hook up apps like Grindr.
& so now we could get a gay guy's perspective of being diagnosed HIV positive.



There was also the season 4 episodes Moonlight Desires which dealt with HIV a bit.
It's actually an episode that I didn't really appreciate until I got older and rewatched it.
You had Marco being his awesome student council president self, holding a blood drive, trying to make Dylan proud, and trying to stray away from the HIV stereotype
but then finding out that not only can he not donate blood for being a male who has had sex with another male
but his own boyfriend is being promiscuous and basically playing into the reason why gay people are barred from it in the first place.

& The donating blood issue has still not been fully resolved so maybe Vijay can dip into that a bit.

That's a great idea for a Vijay plot and I like the Dwayne parallel because we didn't see much of him until he was given that plot. And I don't think it would be out of character for Vijay because I remember being shocked by the implication that he had sex with Tristan.

This also surprised me....


Moving out at 16 is huge!

You can't tell in this picture he shot up during this hiatus.
