Synopsis

Black Hole High is a Canadian science fiction television program which first aired in North America in October 2002 on NBC and Discovery Kids. It is set at the fictional boarding school of the title, where a Science Club investigates mysterious phenomena, most of which is centered around a wormhole located on the school grounds. Spanning four seasons, the series developed into a success, and has been sold to networks around the globe. Created by Jim Rapsas, the series intertwines elements of mystery, drama, romance, and comedy. The writing of the show is structured around various scientific principles, with emotional and academic struggles combined with unfolding mysteries of a preternatural nature. In addition to its consistent popularity among children, it has been recognised by adults as strong family entertainment. Forty-two episodes of the series, each roughly twenty-five minutes in length, have been produced, the last three of which premiered in January 2006. Those three final episodes that aired were combined into a film, Strange Days: Conclusions. The show was filmed at the Auchmar Estate on the Hamilton Escarpment in Hamilton, Ontario.

Alphathewolf I have fell in love with Black Hole High since I first seen it during season 2 I believe. At first I didn't really notice, but the show secretly teaches Science using science fiction as it's way to give you more info. This show has helped my in spots in Science from Elementary School all the way to the 11th grade, Sophomores for some regions. While the under lying teaching method was great another lesson would be learned by the end. All the science fiction events happened because of some deed the character did or was withholding. By the end of the episode they would of learned a lesson. This in a way teaches moral values. I wish I could use more lines, but I must in here with this last thought. Discovery Kids please give us a much needed Spin Off of Black Hole HIgh. Even one "What happened" episode would be nice I feel.
atomius For the rather gigantic genre of 'wierd teen' shows, this one stands out in the usual ways. The names and the characters hairstyles.Sure, for those who survived Seriously Weird and the other 10,000 shows of that sort and still soak in what they see, give it a try. Even i admit it's worth watching, but then again, so is the weather report.The characters, school students at 'blake holsey' high are your usual 'different' and 'unique' people, each giving their own part to complete the puzzle of solving extremely inaccurate scenarios loosely based on scientific facts. Josie Trent, the lead, a skater girl who gets mixed up in a inter-dimensional portal and it's consequences, finds the over-used help of her friends saves the day for the school.And the 'conclusions' episodes with their pieceing together of the crumbs of this rather dry cake didn't exactly impress me the way a real portal appearing would. However, for the fact that TV in general isn't top quality, i give it six stars for effort, and a mildly amusing plot and 'cliffhangers' if you can call them that.
ryon-2 There are a lot of "kiddies shows" that are so obviously for kids, but Strange Days at Blake Holsey High, or as it's more appropriately titled, Wormhole High, is not just for kids but for us grown folks as well.At the heart of this show we see evidence that there is a conspiracy of sorts going on, but we don't know for sure it's with who or why, but each week we see more of the puzzle as Blake Holsey's Science Club learn about science the hard way. Nothing like becoming very small or disappearing into the past or the future, to get someone to remember their science lessons. The writing for this show is sharp and sophisticated, making this show a little like the old Dark Shadows soap opera with it's surprising plot twists and bizarre happenings that can only happen when you build a boarding school on top of a failed science experiment.I would really love to see this show either on video or on DVD so it would free of the annoying graphics that the networks feel they need to clutter up the screen with each week, and with the cryptic secret messages the janitor makes for each show, it would be easier to make sense of the whole series when you can go back to previous episodes and catch all of those small clues. But until then, I'll just have to keep looking at the re-runs I taped. :-)
Sparrow_in_flight Let's see....there was Eerie Indiana (in my opinion, the best of this genre), Eerie Indiana: The Other Dimension, Round the Twist (I believe that's the name - anyone else remember that?), The Zack Files, and now Strange Days at Blake Holesy High. This is a cute show, and I think I like it next after Eerie Indiana...some elements also make me think that this show really may be more of the child of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The X-Files. The occurences are more X-Files in nature, but the way the friends interact, and the school being the center of weirdness is more Buffy. Definitely a fun to watch.
