The 10 Best Childhood TV Shows You Forgot Existed

In This Article:

Cody took over Riverdale, Miranda Cosgrove disappeared, and Raven Samone is back on Disney with a tv show about her daughter. These classic childhood tv shows are so unforgettable, but now that we have grown up we tend to forget about them.

From living a wizard life to jamming out on stage, kids that find these awesome shows from the 2000s will fall in love with the life these characters have; so take a trip down memory lane with me and reminisce on the life you wanted to have as a kid!

1. "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody"

Just admit it: We all either loved Zach or Cody, but Cole Sprouse is definitely the superior twin now. Living in a hotel, running around doing whatever you want all the time, and always getting to have fun is what this show was all about! As an elementary and middle schooler, the idea of a party all the time life made this show one of the all-time best shows during my childhood!

2. "iCarly"

Imagine being a famous YouTuber with two awesome best friends (who end up in love!) and living in the coolest apartment ever! I definitely wanted to be in this show and living this awesome life instead of having a boring room and going to school!

3. "The Wizards of Waverly Place"

Harry Potter is amazing, yes, but having a sweet little witch to look up was so fun when I was younger! I loved watching Selena Gomez play tricks on her family, friends, and learn all about how to be a witch!

4. "Drake & Josh"

This one is a classic (and still on Hulu!) Nickelodeon has to still claim Drake and Josh as one of their biggest hits because it is hilarious and has something for people of all ages. I just started putting this show on in the background while I work on homework or cleaning and I still know all of the words!

5. "Zoey 101"

The definition of a perfect high school was Zoey 101. Being able to live in the coolest dorms, eat sushi all day, and fall in love with your best friend was another one of my middle school dreams! Of course, real high school let me down after I set my expectations so high with this show.

6. "Hannah Montana"

I feel like everyone dreams of being famous at some point in their life and Hannah Montana embodied the double life everyone wanted to have. I still remember the shock of her pulling off her wig and revealing her identity at the end of the show. I am so glad Miley Cyrus is back to being normal now, but I would love to see a Hannah Montana spin off about Miley's life!

7. "Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide"

This was the realest of all the shows I watched as I kid, but high school was still worse than the show. I think what made this show a classic is how hilarious it was. There was never an episode so serious that I did not laugh my head off and I would love to be able to go back and watch it again now that I am an adult in college and survived all the struggles of being in high school.

8. "That's So Raven"

Admit it: we all loved this show and ran around pretending to see the future after watching it. From the fun music, catchy sayings, and hilarious cast this is one of the tv shows I miss the most! There is a spin-off series about Raven's kids, but I haven't had a chance to watch it yet!

9. "Cory in the House"

This was probably less watched, but I loved it! The entire process of being in the White House as a live in family was such an out of this world concept kept having me come back to watch it every week. While this was less popular than other shows I absolutely loved it.

10. "The Amanda Show"

This show still makes me laugh when I see clips of it on YouTube and here people talk about it. Amanda Bynes has been a hot mess since the show, but I really loved watching this show with my friends and laughing at it all day every day!

There are countless amazing tv shows that I need Netflix, Hulu, HBO, someone to put on a streaming service, but these are ten of my all-time favorites that are great to reminisce on!

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

University of Dayton

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

20 Reasons Why Pizza Is Basically Everyone's Best Friend

Seriously, who wouldn't love pizza?

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

Why I Love Being Single (And You Should, Too)

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but Kermit the Frog meme That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

The 12 astrological signs all fall under one of four elements: air, water, earth, or fire. Air signs are rational, social, and love to communicate with others. Water signs are are emotional, intuitive, and mysterious. Fire signs tend to be passionate, creative, and adventurous. Earth signs are conservative, realistic, and loyal.
