Jake Goldsbie
1-7 (regular); 8 (guest appearance)
A smart student, Toby is introduced as the best friend of J.T. and stepbrother of Ashley. He is sometimes looked at as being a "geek" of sorts for his like of computers and anime. Awkward at times, he's only had one girlfriend (Kendra) in his seven-season run as a character, although he has tried on several occasions to date other girls. He deals with anorexia in Season 2, befriends Rick Murray before the school shooting in Season 4, and is greatly affected by J.T.'s death in Season 6. He is Jewish and it is revealed that his grandparents died in the holocaust. He hated the Lakehurst students just for the fact that a student there killed J.T. He helps Holly J. out with her schoolwork and she returns the favor by helping him pass gym. He almost had a relationship with Holly J, but ended it before he got hurt, hurting her. Toby graduated and became a game show host for nerds, hosting a robot war event that Degrassi competed in. *Didn't appear in credits during seasons 6-7, still was a major character.
