13 Shows You Should Watch On Netflix This Summer
Jo Guldi

Last week I wrote on the best TV-Shows on Hulu to watch this summer which you can find here. Below are shows on Netflix that I and my friends have watched and enjoyed that we think you will too.

1. “TrollHunters-Tales of Arcadia”

A mix of supernatural and science fiction, this TV-Show has gained a cult following of people who were not very old or even alive in the 1980’s when this quirky and deep TV-Show is set. It’s one of my favorites.

3. “The Office”

The American adaptation of the British “Office,” this show is a favorite to many and has short episodes which allow for a quick watch or a multiple hour binge.

4. “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”

A part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this show follows a group of close-knit co-workers as they work behind the scenes of the mess that the Avengers and other superheroes and aliens leave behind.

5. “DareDevil”

A Netflix original, this show is darker than the well known Marvel Cinematic Universe, but still manages to incorporate humor and deep characters that make this show a joy to watch.

6. “A Series of Unfortunate Events”

Based on Leminy Snicket’s Book series A Series of Unfortunate Events, this show is quirky and mildly frustrating as the Baudelaire children keep facing humorous misfortune after humorous misfortune.

7. “NCIS”

Not your typical cop show, this show tracks the tight-knit Navy Criminal Investigative Service as they investigate crimes and grow as people.

8. “Person of Interest”

What if a machine could keep tabs on everything electronic and know who was in danger before it happened so it could be stopped? In this show, it exists and the few people who know about it use the machine to save as many as they can, without being caught themselves.

9. “Friends”

A classic, this show follows a group of friends as they struggle through life in New York City. (Warning: Some episodes feature adult content).

10. “Dark Matter”

This obscure Sci-Fi show is based on a crew who all lose their memories and have to work together to survive as they try to regain their memories.

11. “Merlin”

Based around the legend of King Arthur in Camelot, the main character is a wizard whose life purpose is to keep King Arthur alive.

12. “Sherlock”

A modern adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes in modern day London. For longtime fans of Sherlock Holmes this show is a delight with elements of different stories incorporated in each episode.

13. “The Flash”

Happy Watching!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
