Back in January, we found out the CW was rebooting the “Charmed” franchise. On February 3rd, the CW has given us an update on the “Charmed” reboot. According to The Hollywood Reporter, ”Charmed” will roll out next development cycle, in other words, next season. The “Charmed” draft, written by Jessica O’Toole and Amy Rardin, was not up to par, and Jennie Snyder Urman did not have the time to commit to the reboot for this season. The Hollywood Reporter went on to say that the new “Charmed” series is more of a tie in with the original series. “The reboot will be connected to the original series in some fashion, though it's not entirely clear at this point how that will come to pass.” (Goldberg, 2017). If it is a tie in, the sisters will be children and not adults. This can leave an opening for the adult versions to make guest appearances by traveling back in time to 1976, or those in 1976 use magic/powers to see/go to the future. Will Shannen Doherty, Holly Marie Combs, Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan sign on to do so? Is this something the “Charmed” universe can handle? Who would you like to see cast in the younger parts of the grandmother, mother, father, white lighter (Paige’s father) and the sisters?

Before writing for Odyssey I wrote an article on another CW series heading our way. I was 14 years old when this movie came to my town. I had to have my parents write a note, call the movie theater, and when I got to the theater, they called my parents to confirm. Why? The movie is rated R. The movie is my generation’s “Twilight.” How can anyone resist Dwayne, Marko, Paul and David? There is something about them “Lost Boys.” Back in November, the CW announced that they are bringing the “Lost Boys” to the small screen. Now, the series has been pushed back for next season, along with "Charmed." The way this series will work out is over 7 decades. Each decade will have the same vampires but the people and settings will change. The first decade is in San Francisco during the “Summer of Love,” 1967. Rob Thomas from “iZombie” and “Veronica Mars” is behind “The Lost Boys” series. I am wondering if Cory Feldman (Edgar Frog) will have any ties to the series, either behind the scenes or in front of the camera (or both)? I am also wondering if “The Lost Boys” will be the same boys (of course, different actors playing the parts), or a whole new crop of vampires? Will any of the original cast make appearances? Who do you think would make great “Lost Boys” for the series?

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
