5 Brand New Shows To Watch On Netflix Right Now
The CW

Rewatching "The Office" and "Parks & Rec" can get a little boring, especially during quarantine, so you might as well expand your Netflix horizons while you have the chance!

1. "Tiger King"

"Tiger King" is a true-crime documentary series that explores murder and big cats.

This series is only 7 episodes and it's very binge-watch worthy! There are many things in this series that still need to be uncovered, so if you like crime or drama, this is the series for you.

The cool thing about this short series is that The Great Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park is still open in Thackerville, Oklahoma. This park is actually the largest privately owned exotic animal park, and you can visit with general admission for $15; not only is this series worth the watch, but this park might be worth the visit.

2. "All American"

All American is 2 seasons, but that doesn't mean you won't finish both seasons within a couple of days. This show is based on true events involving the life story of NFL Superbowl Champion, Spencer Paysinger. All American goes through Spencer's high school experiences as a football prodigy who transfers from an unsafe neighborhood and school to Beverly Hills, where he seeks better opportunities regarding football and college.

If you like football, drama, and action, then this is the show for you.

3. "Never Have I Ever"

This show just came out on Netflix and I finished all 10 episodes in one day. "Never Have I Ever" is about the coming of age for an intelligent, Indian-American teen who hopes to become popular after a rough first year of high school.

Devi, the star of this show, has many goals she wishes to attain throughout her sophomore year of high school, such as going to parties and landing the perfect boyfriend. Just like any high schooler though, many obstacles come in between her and her goals.

I recommend this show if you enjoy a good laugh, cry, or want to feel somewhat nostalgic about your high school days.

4. "Outer Banks"

"Outer Banks" follows a group of teenagers who live in the outer banks of North Carolina. This show is filled with drama and mystery.

This new series is only 10 episodes long and an easy show to binge-watch. This group of teenagers tries to uncover the mystery of what happened to their ringleader, John B's dad, who disappeared.

They uncover an extraordinary treasure which might lead to why his father disappeared. If you're a fan of uncovering mystery and drama, then this is definitely a good choice of what to watch.

5. "Legacies"

If you have seen "The Vampire Diaries" or "The Originals," this show is a must-see. Although this is 2 seasons and 32 episodes, it's very easy to lose track of time when viewing this show.

"Legacies" examines the life of Hope Mikalson and the Salvator school of the young and gifted. These gifts aren't normal gifts though, this is a supernatural school for vampires, werewolves, and witches lead by Professor Alaric Saltzman. This show is filled with romance, drama, and action, who wouldn't love this series?

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
