5 Crime Shows You Definitely Should Watch To Keep Your Detective Skills Sharp In Quarantine

NBC

1. "Bones"

This TV show has a whopping 12 seasons, with around 23 episodes each season. This show has a great combination of crime, mystery, and romance.

"Bones" features an FBI agent and a Forensic Anthropologist that works at the "Jeffersonian Institution" in Washington D.C., which is a take on the actual Smithsonian of Washington D.C. If you haven't seen this show, it is a must. If you are in need of a binge worthy tv show, you should definitely watching this one.

2. "Criminal Minds"

I watched this show long before quarantine began, but I figured i'd throw it in here. As I am sure everyone knows about this show, everyone should watch it if they are interested in the mystery.

This show is more of a crime-solving show than anything and focuses on many disorders. "Criminal Minds'" final season ended back in February of this as season 15.

3. "Castle"

This show is similar to that of the previously mentioned "Bones". This show features a crime-writing novelist and a New York Detective.

This show is similar in many ways to "Bones", but sadly was cancelled after 8 seasons. The show, however, has wit as well as captivation. This is definitely a binge-worthy tv show.

4. "NCIS"

This show is on its 17th season, being on the air since 2003. I started watching this show back in high school, and have been watching it since. This show is not only based around homicide, but it also deals with espionage and terrorism.

Some of the characters in the show have left or been changed over the years, but this show remains to be one of the most successful crime tv shows in television history.

5. "Law & Order"

With there being multiple upon multiple different Law and Order shows, the one I am referring to is "Law and Order: SVU". This show has been on the air since 1999 and has recently been renewed for 3 more seasons.

Watching this show we see the characters grow over the years, as well as some characters leaving the show. This is expected, however, for a show that has been on for more than 20 years. To this day, "Law and Order: SVU" is one of the oldest shows on TV.

There are, of course, other great shows to watch during quarantine. I have watched several different ones, but for me, I really like crime oriented shows. If you are looking for a binge worthy crime show, any of these would be a great choice.

Stay safe.

To The Girls With "Daddy Issues," You Are Worthy Of The Love He Never Gave You

You are not alone.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Why Blair Waldorf Is The Realest Bitch To Ever Live

XOXO, Gossip Girl.

"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.
