Northwood is a Canadian teen drama television series created by Nick Orchard. It centres on the lives of teenagers living in the eponymous fictional North Vancouver suburb. It ran on the CBC from March 4, 1991 to January 15, 1994.

Most initial reviews of the series were mixed, with criticism given to its excessive melodrama, lack of comic relief, and production values, though praise was given to the acting performances. Having replaced Degrassi High in its time slot, Northwood also drew multiple comparisons to the outgoing show. As it progressed, reviews became more positive.

A soundtrack album, Let It Be Me, was released in 1992. It is composed of adult contemporary covers by cast members of the show.[2]
