10 TV Shows From The 90s That Millennials Binge Watch

There are so many new TV shows out there to watch, however nothing beats the excitement of Netflix or Hulu finally putting your favorite 90s show on it. I think the saying, "It's an oldie, but a goodie" fits perfectly here. Here are 10 TV shows that millennials binge watch.

1. Friends

I'm guilty of binge watching every season of Friends. I'm not sure if it's because Jennifer Aniston is simply amazing, but something about this show, everyone in it and the fact that it's in New York make it a must binge-watch. After watching these episodes again and again, I feel as if Ross, Rachel, Monica, Chandler, Phoebe and Joey are my friends, too.

2. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

"Now this is the story all about how my life got flipped-turned upside down, and I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there, I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air..." Who else shouts the lyrics to this song whenever it's played? This show is funny at times, and also warms your heart. Definitely a must-binge.

3. Sex and the City

I have always loved this show, and I just about cried when The Carrie Diaries came out. The young Carrie Bradshaw from Carrie Diaries has always been "goals", and nonetheless when she grew up I still wanted to be her. This show is definitely one of the best Rom-Com's out there, and for sure something you can catch me and others binge-watching.

4. Boy Meets World

A classic. Cory and Topanga's love life, as well as other things they had going on in their life keep us millennials binge watching Boy Meets World. Girl Meets World came out but does not do justice to this original. However, it's cool to see Cory and Topanga keep growing up and more in love.

5. Saved By The Bell

All the pranks and crushes of this show make this a great show to binge watch. If only high school could have been like this for everyone.

6. Full House

Either you love this show or you don't. Personally, I grew up watching this show so when Fuller House came out I was nothing but excited. Full House has it all: comedy, romance, sass, family, friends, love, etc. Who didn't love watching Danny Tanner raise his kids with a whole bunch of family living with him? DJ, Stephanie, and Michelle (and Kimmy who inevitably became family) had such interesting lives. Watching Uncle Joey be Uncle Joey, and Uncle Jesse start his own family with Rebecca brought this show all around.

7. That '70s Show

Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher and everyone in this show makes it absolutely wonderful and hilarious. Adulthood happens to everyone, and thank goodness that as we become adults ourselves we can do it along side these characters.

8. Dexters Laboratory

Who didn't want to be a child genius with a secret laboratory in the basement of your house!? Even though Dee-Dee always got into things that she shouldn't have and tried to tattle, she made this show great, too. My brothers and I loved watching this show, as we could relate. He's the perfect child on the outside, but a secret genius on the inside... what sister wouldn't be jealous.

9. The Power Puff Girls

MY ALL TIME FAVORITE CHILDHOOD SHOW. THANK YOU NETFLIX AND HULU FOR GETTING THIS. Sugar, spice, everything nice, and... oops Chemical X made professor a dad. Bubbles, Blossom, and Buttercup were badass and each had their own great personality. I will definitely keep binge watching these episodes.

10. 90210

The new version of this is pretty great, but nothing beats the original. These California high school students sure grew up with one heck of a life.

Find me procrastinating my homework and binge watching these shows along with many others. Just kidding, school is more important than TV shows. Catch me and other millennials binge watching these when we should be doing other things.

12 Most Annoying Things About Working In Sales

No, I can't help you.

Oakland University

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

16 Things Blondes Are Tired Of Hearing

Please hold your blonde joke.

Rutgers University

Yify

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.

15 Things That Happen On Your Birthday

Do you have a small get-together or throw a big bash?

University of Southern California

5245

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

No, I can't help you.

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

4. Having the same conversations over and over again! To be honest I really don't even want to talk to you right now, or have this fake ass smile on my face!

5. Always having to have a smile on your face. I promise I'm not as happy as I may look!

6. Customers not understanding that sometimes, mistakes happen. I am a human being, we all mess up sometimes!

7. Having the boss from hell, it's their way or the highway! Even though I did my job correctly and efficiently, if I don't do it the exact way you do, I'm a piece of shit.

8. Having coworker who don't help out, who bend the rules just enough to screw you over.

9. Having to be at work after closing because a customer is taking forever and half! Not like I'd like to go home or anything!

10. Having shitty hours and more shifts than you asked for. Just because we don't have enough workers, doesn't mean I want to pick up every shift that you cant cover, oh great boss of mine!

11. Not having time for a social life. It gets old saying, "I can't I have work..." Every day of the week!

12. Having that lazy costumer who can't do anything for themselves... no please I'll get that, it's no problem at all!

It's just my face, I swear.

1. When you meet new people, they automatically assume you hate them or are rude.

2. People are constantly asking you if you're OK.

3. After being friends with someone for a while, they confess to you, "I thought you were so mean when I first met you," or, "I thought you hated me."

4. You get told to smile more, but they don't understand how scary that would be.

5. You're always labeled as seeming "judgy."

6. Passing a friend with your RBF in full force and not realizing you just shot them a death glare.

7. Being sarcastic, but everyone thinks you're outright rude.

8. Not knowing how mean you really look until you see a picture of yourself in resting face.

9. Your apologies never sound sincere because of your emotionless face.

10. Your "mad face" scares you.

11. And, lastly, people are constantly asking you if you are happy or having a good time because you look bored to death.

Please hold your blonde joke.

1. "Is Elle Woods your spirit animal?"

2. "Is that your natural hair color?"

3. "Oh wow, you get good grades at school?"

4. "You must really like the color pink!"

5. "You’re probably not into sports, right?"

6. "You must have such a bubbly personality."

7. "Your wardrobe must consist of all things preppy."

8. "What sorority are you in?"

9. "You were probably a cheerleader in high school."

10. "You look like you’re from L.A. because your hair is so light."

11. "You definitely like Pumpkin Spiced Lattes from Starbucks!"

12. "Do you actually think blondes have more fun?"

13. "You must encompass the typical “white girl” stereotype."

14. "Is that daddy’s credit card you’re using?"

15. "So all of your friends are blonde too?"

16. "I’m surprised about you; I thought you would be a lot ditsier."
