5 Reasons 'Schitt's Creek' Is TV Gold

If you're not familiar with the show "Schitt's Creek," then you probably have been living under a rock for the past year or two. "Schitt's Creek" can be streamed on Netflix. It stars Eugene and Dan Levy as father and son, along with Catherine O'Hara and Annie Murphy rounding out their on-screen family.

If you know the show, then I'm sure you already love it. I have literally never met a soul who didn't think it lived up to the hype. But if you have not seen "Schitt's Creek," after reading this head over to Netflix and cancel any plans you have tonight because you're about to go down the rabbit hole.

1. The Moira Rose of it all.

A true star, diva, and legend herself, Moira Rose is genuinely an icon. From her extensive wig collection to her top-notch comedy, Moira truly embodies everything it means to be a star. Which she won't let you forget by reminding you about her time on her hit show "Sunrise Bay."

2. Daniel Levy as David Rose.

Alexis and David together are probably the best on-screen sibling duo since, I dunno, Carmen and Juni in 'Spy Kids?' (Random reference, but I mean how many notable funny tv siblings that we all know of are there?)

Dan Levy as David Rose is seriously one of, if not the funniest, wittiest, best-dressed characters on television. If you are familiar with the show, then you know his character alone is enough reason to watch.

3. Anytime Alexis says her brother's name.

You know how they say every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings?

Well, every time Alexis says "David" I get to roll on the floor in tears. But seriously, I can't help but cry-laughing literally any time David's name comes out of her mouth.

The inflection, the pronunciation, everything about it, is pure comedic gold. Also if you want a laugh, someone compiled Alexis saying "David" a bunch of times and it'll have you howling. See it here.

4. Stevie Budd. 

Another character on the show that will make you laugh until your sides hurt, Stevie Budd.

Emily Hampshire as Stevie, who runs the motel the Rose family lives at, will make you wish you had a sarcastic side-kick.

She uses her dry sense of humor and other local know-how to keep all the wildly bold personalities of the Rose family under control while realizing she loves them like her they're her own family.

5. Moira Rose. Moira Rose. Moira Rose.

Ending this list, just like it started, with Moira Rose.

She is the matriarch of the family, and delivers her funny one-liners with such ease, how could you not love her?

Her accent, wit, everything about her just oozes comedy and star power.

Moira will have you laughing so hard, you'll be questioning whether or not that brownie you ate prior to watching had something special in it.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
