Also known as Strange Days at Blake Holsey High in the United States, Black Hole High is a Canadian Science Fiction series created by Jim Rapsas, best known for developing and producing a vast amount of the programming that aired on Discovery Kids in the United States. The show first premiered on Global TV in Canada before airing on the aforementioned channel. The show lasted for three seasons consisting of 42 episodes, starting in October 2002 and ending with a three-part Grand Finale in January 2006.Back in the 1980s, an accident at nearby Pearadyne Labs results in a black hole (sometimes described instead as a wormhole) opening up in the science teacher's office at Blake Holsey High in the present day. When said black hole eats the science teacher, Professor Noel Zachary replaces him and becomes mentor to the school's science club, who proceed to investigate the strange goings-on at their school. This club being a team consisting of four scientifically gifted students and the son of Pearadyne Labs owner Victor Pearson. Cue the experiencing of random mysterious phenomena which are presented in the guise of science as they try to uncover the secrets behind the strangeness.In some ways, Black Hole High could be considered Buffy the Vampire Slayer with the word "supernatural" crossed out and "science" penciled in (though with the non-violent and non-sexual baggage implied by its younger target audience).note The second episode, "Invisible", for example, is a near-identical copy of the Buffy episode "Invisible Girl"; the key difference being that, rather than attributing a character's disappearance to magic, the nearby black hole caused it to be that Marshall would, as a result of feeling unnoticed, lose his ability to interact with light. A fairly recurring element in the show is that one's emotional state and social interactions can reshape the laws of physics.In addition to the weekly anomalies, the show was built around a series-long Myth Arc involving Victor Pearson's attempts to recreate the Pearadyne Labs experiment, and the club's attempts to work out the sinister implications therein.The series shares a number of actors with Disney-produced shows of the same time period, and bears a significant structural similarity to So Weird. Henry Winkler served as an executive producer and consultant on both. Stars pretty much the same cast as The Zack Files, another Canadian paranormal live-action kid's show.In 2021, the creator started releasing a Sequel Series titled Strange Days at Blake Holsey High: Echoes, that's currently ongoing and available in their official Youtube page. [1]Has a Recap page which is under construction. | |

| Black Hole High / int_1062982b | comment |
"Flowers for Algernon" Syndrome: The premise behind the episode "Transference"; the vortex causes Vaughn to suck more intelligence from Josie, leaving him with the ability to build a cold fusion reactor while Josie barely has enough brain power to stay awake. In the end, a kiss snaps everything back to normal. | |

Arbitrary Skepticism | |
| Black Hole High / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: Many episodes will start with a weird event or symptom happening to a character, followed by the other characters stating that "no, science says this is impossible," until they witness the event for themselves. This occurs constantly despite the fact that it's been established every episode that things are just completely bizarre at the school. | |

Corrine and Vaughn are also forced to hold hands in "Friction," when the wormhole sticks them together because of their fighting. Originally, he was holding onto her arm (where he had grabbed her to get her attention), and they found that while the friction wouldn't let them let go of each other, Vaughn could slide his hand to a more comfortable position. They spend about half the episode with Vaughn's arm around Corrine's shoulders, and the other half holding hands. Hilarity Ensues when Marshall's jealousy starts coming out. | |

Holding Hands: Josie and Vaughn's UST really took off in "Lost" when Vaughn suggests they hold hands so neither of them disappear. Played for Laughs with Professor Z and Principal Durst, who do the same thing while out looking for the kids. Corrine and Vaughn are also forced to hold hands in "Friction," when the wormhole sticks them together because of their fighting. Originally, he was holding onto her arm (where he had grabbed her to get her attention), and they found that while the friction wouldn't let them let go of each other, Vaughn could slide his hand to a more comfortable position.

Strangely Specific Horoscope: In "Probability", Marshall shoves off a school assignment and submits silly horoscope predictions to the school paper instead of a serious article and made them obviously about his friends. Because the school sits on a do-anything-black hole they come true. And he made a typo saying one of them would die rather than diet. | |

Time Stands Still: In "Stopwatch", Josie 's watch slows time almost to a stand still. It also appears the Josie Clone has this same ability. Used in a way in "Equations". Corrine's wormhole affected equation allowed her to effectively travel so fast that time is virtually stopped. | |

Anticipatory Breath Spray: A variation in "Brainwaives." When Lucas and Vaughn switch bodies, Vaughn is forced to take Lucas' place in the drama rehearsal of Romeo and Juliet. Naturally, he is Romeo, to Josie's Juliet. And of course, that day, they are rehearsing the kiss scene. As Corrine (the director), Josie, and Vaughn leave the science room for the drama classroom, Corrine catches Josie applying lipgloss and gives her an incredulous look. | |

Jock Dad, Nerd Son: Inverted with Victor and Vaughn; Victor Pearson was a science geek in high school, Vaughn is the stereotypical jock. There are mentions in the series of Victor's disappointment with Vaughn's low grades (despite knowing his son suffers from dyslexia), but it doesn't create too much friction otherwise. | |

| Black Hole High / int_53136954 | comment |
Book Dumb: Vaughn, though this could be due in part to his Dyslexia. And by the end of the series, he seems to have come into his own intelligence wise. Also applies to Stu Kubiak; though even he had some rare bouts of brilliance. Mostly when it involved his pet chameleon. | |

Easy Amnesia | |
| Black Hole High / int_55b1f9a1 | comment |
Easy Amnesia: Professor Z in "Who?" gets his mind wiped by the wormhole. Easily fixed by the end of the episode, though not by a tap on the head—as Corrine berates Lucas for attempting earlier in the episode. Lucas' defense, despite being a science buff, is that "it worked on Gilligan's Island!" | |

It's All My Fault | |
| Black Hole High / int_5ad80bf8 | comment |
It's All My Fault: Josie realizes near the end of the series that she is responsible for all the goings-on with Victor. She was the one who went back in time with the floating ball and unwittingly gave Victor the means to start (and destroy) Pearadyne. It's when she goes back in time again to try and fix it where things go from bad to worse. | |

Graying Morality | |
| Black Hole High / int_6a2486cd | comment |
Graying Morality: At the beginning of the series, the show's morality was very black and white. Victor bad, Science Club good. As the show progressed, who was good and who was evil became very blurred. In the end, it's revealed that Victor was Good All Along and that he was supposed to have the energy ball, and that makes Josie evil for trying to stop him. | |

Put on a Bus | |
| Black Hole High / int_754df088 | comment |
Put on a Bus: Marshall transfers schools between the end of the third season and the beginning of the fourth (which takes place a year later). He appears in the finale, but only briefly. Tyler, an intellectual bully, goes through the wormhole both into the past and future. He learns more than even the Science Club and eventually leaves to go to a different school, where a bad guy is trying to control the wormhole. His departure was left as a cliff hanger, which was presumably going to come to fruition in the fourth season, but the cancellation of the show negated it. Grant, Marshall's brother. He ends up working for Victor for a few episodes. Presumably he was let go between the third and fourth seasons. The lack of acknowledgement for Grant likely stems from the truncated fourth season. | |

For Want of a Nail | |
| Black Hole High / int_79a60aec | comment |
For Want of a Nail: "Fate": Taking his mother's hairclip in the past prevents Vaughn's parents from getting together, erasing his existence, uncreating Pearadyne Labs, and, for some reason, turning Professor Z into a pizza boy. Professor Z had a Pearadyne labs scholarship, without it: pizza boy. Perhaps a bit of a subversion, as it later turns out that, while the hairclip was involved, the real catalyst for both Vaughn's parents getting together, the creation of Pearadyne labs, and the black hole, was Victor stealing the Qi Gong ball when Josie returned to the past to replace the hairclip. | |

Retcon: The final episode of Season 3 shows Josie arriving at a shuttered and abandoned Blake Holsey High with the war-torn ruins of a futuristic city in the background, the implication being that she's traveled to an After the End future. The finale miniseries repeats the shot, but the city in the distance is gone, and it's later explained that she was shunted into some sort of pocket universe to protect the timeline from her meddling. | |

Power of Trust: In the episode "Nocturnal," Josie can't sleep and is plagued by hallucinations of Vaughn's memories. In the climax of the episode, she hallucinates Victor as Vaughn while Vaughn begs her to trust him. When she admits that she does, despite a recent betrayal on Vaughn's part, the paranormal phenomenon keeping her perpetually awake stops and she's able to sleep. | |

The Multiverse: How the wormhole works. Josie becomes trapped in a universe of her own creation in "Inquiry", in which the accident at Pearadyne never happened and Blake Holsey is condemned. She is the sole inhabitant of that universe, so getting her back without creating a paradox is the tricky part of "Conclusions." In the end, Josie's clone takes her place. | |

Shout-Out | |

Shout-Out: Marshall's last name is Wheeler. This is most likely a shout out, considering the fact that John Archibald Wheeler is the man who coined the terms "Black Hole" and "Wormhole". Victor Pearson may also be a reference to Victor Popov, and though a long shot, Vaughn may be a reference to the name Sean, since Robert Clark's (the actor who played Vaughn) brother is Daniel Clark, who played Sean on Degrassi. | |

Weight Woe: Vaughn is a rare male example in "Nutrition," when he goes to great lengths to lose weight and enter a lower wrestling weight class. He becomes addicted to wormhole-affected energy bars, which have no calories, and exercises excessively. He loses the weight, but becomes irritable, depressed, and openly hostile to Josie, who is concerned about his fixation. | |

Two-Teacher School | |
| Black Hole High / int_edce12ef | comment |
Two-Teacher School: Again, literally. The only teachers we see are the science teachers- one of whom only appears in two episodes. In fact, it would seem the only other faculty at the school are A) Principal Durst, B) The Janitor, and C) The Lunch Lady. There's a gym coach who appears in a few episodes, as well as Miss Dubin in "Nanotechnology", and the drama teacher in "Brainwaves". But yeah, other teachers are pretty much nonexistent. | |

It Was a Gift | |
| Black Hole High / int_ee6201b8 | comment |
It Was a Gift: Professor Z apparently owns a polka CD. He suggests using it to rid the school of rapidly multiplying sponges in "Ecosystem", to the confused expressions of Marshall and Lucas. | |

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything | |
| Black Hole High / int_ee7ed46e | comment |
The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Marshall with Magnet 360. Marshall joins their band and becomes the lead singer, but outside of Marshall's audition, we never get to see them actually perform. On that note, we never get to see Marshall sing at any point, band or no band. | |

Food Slap | |
| Black Hole High / int_f23c26ab | comment |
Food Slap: Frustrated with Vaugh's refusal to eat actual food in an effort to lose weight in "Nutrition," Josie ends up dumping a plate of spaghetti over his head. It snaps him out of it and becomes a weird heartwarming moment between the two of them. | |

Continuity Lock-Out | |
| Black Hole High / int_f97be86e | comment |
Continuity Lockout: An in-universe example in "Conclusions." Despite being central to the show's plot, Victor is out of the loop about the things the gang are up to. When Josie returns through the wormhole after a long absence, she goes to talk to Victor, with Lucas hot on her heels. When it's revealed that it's not Josie, but her clone, we get this exchange: Later in the same conversation: | |

The Watcher | |
| Black Hole High / int_fbcaf7b0 | comment |
The Watcher: Josie's clone is sent away at the end of "Culture" to become an Observer, someone who makes sure that no one screws up the timeline. The Janitor is revealed to be an "Observer of Observers" and often gives Josie mysterious advice. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Black Hole High / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: In season 2's "Brainwaves," Vaughn and Lucas switch bodies. In that episode, Lucas' dad calls and talks to Vaughn about catching an elusive fish, and Vaughn mentions to Lucas that it "must be nice" to have that experience with his father. When Lucas is forced to go to Vaughn's house to meet with Victor, he drops the hint that maybe Vaughn and Victor should go fishing sometime. The conversation is forgotten about until season 3's "Tesseract." Josie asks Lucas if he is staying at Blake Holsey over spring break to investigate a new theory about Vaughn, and then says that Vaughn won't even be there...he and his father are going fishing for the long weekend. | |
