What ever happened to Rick Munro from Degrassi Junior High? 🤔

Degrassi loves to tell stories about the bad boy who's doomed to fail and the good girl who just wants to fix him. Before Joey/Caitlin or Sean/Emma there was Caitlin & Rick

Rick was a staple character in Season 1 & 2 of Degrassi Junior High. His first storyline was The Cover Up where he gets abused by his father and tries to hide it from the other kids at school. Later, he helps his nemesis Kathleen Mead handle her mom's alcohol addiction and joins The Environmental Action Committee to protest against pollution. 💨

But then, he suddenly disappears out of nowhere. There's no explanation on where he went and the kids seem to gloss over his sudden disappearance. Leaving Degrassi fans to wonder what ever happened to Rick Munro? 

Well, it's time we find out! Rick Munro is played by Craig Driscoll, a former child actor turned tattoo artist, who's now living in San Diego, California. ☀️

How does Craig feel about his time at Degrassi? What was it about his personality that made Kit Hood scout him from a classroom filled with kids? And will he tell us the real reason behind why he left the show? 

This season, as a perk for supporting The Degrassi Kid Podcast, you get to leave questions for our Degrassi guests!

👇 Leave your questions for Craig Driscoll in the comments. I'll do my very best to ask as many as I can in our time together!

It seems that not every cast member who left during the show’s run was seeking to further their acting careers elsewhere. Given you were all still in school, was the door open for you to return if the circumstances were right for you? Or was leaving considered *final*? 😀

Would you have liked to come back in the next generation? Maybe a mentor to others or coworker of Caitlin?
