5 Shows That Need To Come To Netflix
wolbertsweb.com

Netflix has been wonderful about changing things up these last few weeks. Although some changes have involved great add-ons such as "A Cinderella Story" and "Zootopia," we have also lost a few good ones as well. Therefore, I decided to make a list of not only the shows that need to make a comeback, but the ones I think always belonged on Netflix.

1. Psych


When I found out that Shawn Spencer and Burton “Gus” Guster were no longer going to be a click away I was tempted to write a letter to Netflix (if that’s possible). The show Psych has been a comfort to me. I cannot count the amount of times I fell asleep on my couch while Shawn and Gus saved Santa Barbara with their silly antics. It made me feel safe. Well, not anymore!

2. Wizards of Waverly Place


Though I am not a huge Disney Channel fan, I love magic! Any show about magic I will watch. This show I found to be oddly comforting and I actually didn’t get into it until it was on Netflix. It was nice to watch the Russo family try to navigate their normal lives while teaching their children magic. And I loved watching Justin (David Henrie) try to keep his younger sister Alex (Selena Gomez) out of trouble and usually fail. It was fun. It was colorful and family-oriented. And I miss it.

3. Gilligan's Island


Most of my childhood was spent watching the classics. I really wish we could see more old-time television shows on Netflix and not just all of the new stuff. I would love to be able to watch the seven Castaways fail to get off of their deserted island because of Gilligan’s bumbling antics. And yes, before you ask, I memorized the theme song.

4. Get Smart


And I’m not talking about the movie remake with Steve Carell. Although I love Steve Carell, no one can replace the original performances of Don Adams as the infamous Agent 86 and Barbara Feldon as Agent 99. It’s a classic and I think more people need to be educated on what all of the remakes are based upon. Think about it –– the next generation will associate Cinderella with Lily James and Belle with Emma Watson!

5. Boy Meets World


The way I see it, if they can put the spin-off series on Netflix, they should also provide the originals. As much as "Girl Meets World"rides on the nostalgia, I still prefer "Boy Meets World." In my personal opinion, it was way less preachy and really showed the dark sides of adolescence. They showed the ugly and funny metamorphosis of teenage years through the characters of Cory, Shawn and Topanga. "Girl Meets World" maintains a cleanliness that "Boy Meets World" avoids. Plus the jokes were way funnier and there are a couple of seasons where we can enjoy a not-so-stupid Eric Mathews.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
