Do you ever lack the energy to scroll endlessly through Netflix for a new show? Sometimes I'll switch between Netflix, Hulu, and Youtube for an hour just trying to find something to watch. I hate to admit it, but I've tried out several Netflix Originals simply because they were at the top of the page. I've sorted through the weird, the disturbing, and the terrible for you! Here's my list of seven Netflix Originals recommendations for each day of the week.

Monday: One Day At A Time

My current favorite, "One Day At A Time", follows the daily life of the Alvarez's. It's goofy and while also starting a conversation on important and current issues. BONUS: Season Two was just released!

Tuesday: Bo Burnham: Make Happy

This one-hour live comedy show will make you laugh and make you think. Burnham's unconventional approach to comedy provides social commentary while also just being outright hilarious.

Wednesday: GLOW

This comedy revolves around the Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling with a fun 80s vibe. Shenanigans and drama ensue.

Thursday: Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

After being rescued from a cult, Kimmy decides to start a clean slate in New York City. Yup, another comedy to get you through the last part of the week.

Friday: Black Mirror

Fridays are the perfect day to contemplate the dangerous and frightening potentials of technological advancement! Often disturbing, Black Mirror offers a different scenario and cast for each episode.

Saturday: Dark

Okay, so this show might not be everyone's cup of tea. This German show isn't kidding around with its title. If you enjoyed the ever so popular Stranger Things and wouldn't mind a darker and more confusing version, this might be worth a shot.

Sunday: Grace And Frankie

Back to comedies to get you ready for the new week! The first and biggest selling point of this show is simple: Lily Tomlin. Her character Frankie teams up with Grace after their husbands divorce them to date each other. Be warned, this one is particularly easy to binge.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
