10 Reasons Everyone You Know Is Watching 'Outer Banks' — Or At Least Thinking About Starting It
Netflix

By now, it is safe to declare "Outer Banks" on Netflix as THE TV Show of quarantine.

"Tiger King" got out to an early lead, but since, the Pogues and the Kooks have owned pop culture conversations while everyone has been cooped up this spring amidst a global pandemic. And if you are one of the very few people out there in the world that has not heard about "Outer Banks" and or haven't binged it yet, well...


It's time.

Here are 10 reasons everyone you know has already watched, is watching, or at the very least, thinking about starting "Outer Banks":

1. John B is such a ridiculously amazing protagonist.

Oh, and he's really good looking.

2. His friends are equally ridiculous in their own right.

And yes, they are also all really good looking, too.

3. These characters are all supposed to be 16 or 17, but the actors are all in their mid-20s.

The absurdity of this is part of the show's charm, I promise.

4. The location.

The closest thing you're getting to a real vacation this summer, sorry.

5. The cast has done a lot of press and lots of videos together during quarantine.

And it makes them even more likable.

6. Sarah Cameron and Kiara both have love stories you want to see more of.

Who will end up with who??

7. It seems like season two is a go, and that showrunners want up to FOUR OR FIVE SEASONS TOTAL.

Sign. Me. Up.

8. It's got that certain "it" factor that shows like "The OC" and "One Tree Hill" have.

OK, so it's not as good as those iconic shows, but it certainly shares some similar vibes.

9. Sarah Cameron's dad is kindaaaaa hot.

An amazing villain, too.

10. It ends on a pretty good cliff hanger.

But really, WTF will happen now?

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
