Your time is too valuable to spend watching bad TV.

As a human living in 2016, your time is precious--which is why when it comes to watching television for five hours and four minutes every day on average, you need to make sure you're investing in the right shows. Nothing is worse than binging an entire series only to realize that you could have been using that time to watch an even better one. So, here are seven Netflix shows that are definitely not worth watching.

1. Friends

Six people who are all friends with each other (and not just on Facebook)? Talk about an unrealistic premise. If it's fantasy you're interested in, then try something a little less "out there," like Game of Thrones.

2. Orange Is The New Black

Let this show be a lesson that spinoffs never work, as this Steven Avery origin story never quite took off. Plus, how are you supposed to pronounce its nickname, OINTB? Do you say all of the letters individually, or is it "oint-buh"? You're looking for a crime drama, not a thinker.

3. Parks and Recreation

First of all, everyone knows Amy Poehler doesn't live in Indiana because no one important lives in Indiana. Second, a branch of government dedicated to local parks? This sci-fi/reality mashup just has a little too much going on.

4. Luke Cage

This show's titular character is described as "a hoodie-wearing, unbreakable ex-con." Please, everyone knows con men wear long trench coats filled with watches.

5. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

Um, isn't Luke Cage supposed to be the unbreakable one? Recycled plot lines are the worst.

6. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

Wouldn't it be less redundant to just say "ex-girlfriend"? Besides, the boys on this show are just as crazy. Watch one episode, and you'll see them singing and dancing. Boys don't sing and dance; they play sports.

7. Fuller House.

But actually.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
