10 Unforgettable Shows

And why my TV life will never be the same.

10 Unforgettable Shows
ABC Family

Today, my heart has been broken over the countless TV shows that I have racked up on my list. Now, I pride myself on getting out of the house and having adventures; however, I do have a life indoors as well. My indoor life revolves around the couch, my laptop, and the TV. A girl can only take so much heartbreak from her favorite characters being ripped away from the land of fiction. Here is a list of 10 phenomenal TV shows that have been cancelled and will never grace mankind with their illustrious story lines again. The list below is in no way in order based on favorites, but merely heartbreaking realizations of shows that have an unfortunate end:

ABC Family’s "Twisted"

ABC Family’s "The Lying Game"

The CW’s "The Secret Circle"

ABC Family’s "The Nine Lives of Chloe King"

ABC Family’s "Jane by Design"

CBS’s "Limitless"

MTV’s "Faking It"

ABC Family’s "10 Things I Hate About You"

The CW’s "The Carrie Diaries"

Nickelodeon’s "Zoey 101"

The list shows 10 of my favorite shows that have been cut from my life. Dramatic as I’m portraying this, this matter is important. Frequently, astounding TV shows are created and placed on networks that grabs attention quickly. These types of shows reach a vast and diverse audience, yet they end up getting cancelled. I understand there are different reasons for the cancellation of a TV show. For example, MTV’s "Faking It" is getting cancelled for the reconstruction of MTV. People are getting upset that MTV isn’t what it was supposed to stand for originally: music. However, amazing TV shows are getting cut in the process. How long until television shows become all pointless, degrading, and obnoxious? The TV shows that are aired today seems to either talk about nothing important or just showing how humans act like animals. I can admit that there are some great TV shows still on air today, including "The Vampire Diaries," "Young and Hungry," "The Fosters," "The Big Bang Theory," and many more. Mostly I see a lot of half-naked female adults fighting and arguing like children on reality TV more than a show where someone can actually learn something. I see a lot of pointless gossip headlines over things that should actually be on the news like a hero saving lives, not a pop star going bald. Do we really live in a world where real news doesn’t exist? Why do I have to find out about breaking news a week later? How long before the media discloses everything that we value important? I just want to live in a world where I can calmly watch my favorite TV shows and not have to stress over its pending cancellation or not. A world where I don’t have to scroll endlessly for a decent show to watch. A world where the media can realize a great show when they see one.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
