Jay and Silent Bob Do Degrassi kicks off with three commentary tracks, each featuring Kevin Smith, Jason Mewes, Stacie Mistysyn, associate producer Jim Jackman, and writer Aaron Martin. Kevin Smith sets the gold standard for audio commentaries, and these tracks are predictably hysterical as he points out all of the suspension of disbelief stuff that I didn’t really catch on the first time through and as he tries to make one-time crush Stacie as uncomfortable as possible. The alternate “West End Girls” commentary, which Kevin politely requests that you listen to last, is still worth a listen but is the least essential of the three. They had some studio time left to burn and a lot more they wanted to talk about, so they gave it a second pass. This time, Kevin’s more of a moderator than a participant, prompting conversation about the business end of producing a show for Canadian television and talking about the show’s viewership in the U.S. and Canada.

A minute and a half of bloopers are almost entirely devoted to Kevin and Jason rattling off various bits of innuendo, and there are also five minutes of Kevin cracking up Stacie while filming an overdramatic promo. Two short deleted scenes are also included. “Best…Year of Our Lives” is the minute long dramatic finalé to Jay and Silent Bob Go Canadian, Eh? (and it’s easier to understand than the reverb-drenched dialogue from the finished episode). “Too Young” clocks in around 25 seconds and has an alternate version of Kevin explaining to Jason that statutory rape’s still frowned upon in the Great White North.

“How to Film a Ninja Fight Scene” compares thirteen minutes of raw footage with the minute and a half sequence that made into the episode. The entirety of the unedited footage is a little much to wade through, but it definitely gives me a greater appreciation for the magic of editing. The disc opens with a brief intro with Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes, and the full seven minutes and change of raw footage, complete with rants about the appropriateness of different masturbatory material, Mewes’ sexual hangups, and Canadian unfamiliarity with the concept of a cocksucker, are piled on as an extra.
