6 Best Netflix Shows Of All Genres
Huffington Post

Whether you're sick of your usual Netflix go-tos, looking to switch it up or trying to get in as much 'Netflix-time' as possible before the school season rolls back around, take a look at this list for some inspiration!

1. "Being Mary Jane"

Not many people have heard of this show, but it is gaining its popularity on Netflix. It's best fit genre is drama. This show is an empowering show that shows woman how they can be independently successful. It shows a woman breaking all boundaries to be successful in her reporting career. Onscreen Mary Jane looks like she has it all together, but at home her life is just as crazy as everyone else's!

2. "How I Met Your Mother"

Some people would call this a classic on TV and on Netflix. But those who haven't taken the gander to watch it definitely should. The genre is comedy while all at the same time there is a story being told about every single one of the main characters. The cast is a friendship group that everyone strives to have in their lives and they make it even more enjoyable to watch.

3. "Friday Night Lights"

If you didn't grow up in a small town like the cast of this show did, then you will have wished you did after watching this series! This show is a drama, but also shows a certain reality of small town high school football players' dreams and realities. Each individual character's story from season 1-5 lead viewers to want to know more and more with each episode.

4. "American Horror Story"

Don't let the title scare you away. While the genre is a little bit more on the horror / suspense side, it is not as scary as the title makes it out to be. The term I would use to describe this show is 'intriguingly weird.' Everything that happens in each separate season is completely out of the ordinary, but it keeps viewers wanting more. It does follow a story line which is also nice. Also, each season uses the same characters, but takes place in completely different places.

5. "Orange Is The New Black"

All the hype on social media and TV doesn't give this Netflix original enough justice. This perfect drama / comical series is one you will never get bored of. It shows the behind the scenes of a women's prison and the daily activities and drama that goes along with that. With the new season having just come out, this show is sure to be one to not miss.

6. "One Tree Hill"

Another series that travels with each character from high school to their lives after high school. This one focuses on two brothers' love and talent for basketball. The genre is definitely drama and will have viewers sitting at the edge of their seat through the different twists and turns. If you watched "Friday Night Lights" from this list, then this is a definite second to watch after.

Happy watching!

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.
