The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air stole our hearts with its iconic theme song, humor, and dynamic characters. The Fresh Prince has been watched since its premiere, as it still airs on certain television networks today. Will Smith and the rest of the cast will forever be known for this television show; "The Carlton" is even one of the most widely known dance moves today. I only hope that our generation will keep this show alive and pass on its greatness to other generations.


Full House is one of those shows where you watch it and just want more. In fact, Netflix has created a spin-off show called Fuller House. The plots of each show exemplify humor as well as teach a lesson. This is one of the main reasons why we love Full House so much (aside from the fact that John Stamos is one of the lead roles).


As the audience follows the lives of two brothers, their families, and their relationships, Boy Meets World resonates with people because of the realistic characters and scenarios. Cory and Topanga have the kind of romance everyone wants to attain, as the two begin a relationship in middle school that lasts a lifetime. Mr. Feeny is the ideal teacher because he is also a friend and a mentor. Although each character faces some sort of reality, this show gives problem solving techniques to each person watching.


F.R.I.E.N.D.S. is one of the most iconic shows in the history of television. This show revolves around the lives of six friends in the bustling city of New York. The amazing one-liners and character developments throughout the show entice the audience, as they follow the relationships that develop over the ten seasons. Ross is Rachel's lobster, and Monica marries her best friend, who is Chandler. Recurring jokes like Ross's three marriages and Monica's fat jokes never get old. F.R.I.E.N.D.S is still on Netflix and people (including myself) re-watch these episodes, as they never get old.


Growing up, Sister Sister was one of my favorite shows because of the mixture of humorous and serious content. Although the situations were problematic, the lines from the girls and the mother bring a lighter tone to the show. The writers of this show creatively displayed a family with separated parents and brings a "Parent Trap" aspect to the plot.



For any kid in my generation, I think it's understandable how Kim Possible made this list. As this girl is a regular high school student, she also saves the world with the assistance of her best friend Ron Stoppable and his naked mole rat, Rufus. All of us wanted to try Bueno Nacho and answer Kim's communicator by saying, "What's the sitch." For all of you Kim Possible lovers like me, we can't find the episodes anywhere but on Itunes. Here is some advice: For Christmas and birthdays, ask for Itunes gift cards so you can buy all the episodes!


Obviously, we love That 70s Show now because of Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis. However, this show became so popular because of the character developments and relationship developments between characters. Aside from the humorous lines, the actors of this show spectacularly execute their roles. Everyone still loves, talks, and watches this show!


Although a children's show, our generation still loves and adores Drake and Josh. One of Nickelodean's best hits, Drake and Josh is one of the funniest early 2000s shows. This show follows the lives of two step brothers and their journey to becoming best friends. Jokes like Josh's obsession with Oprah and Drakes addiction to junk food are found throughout the entire show. This lighthearted television show is always a good show to watch, no matter how many times you've seen it.


Seinfeld is one of the most creative shows of the 90s because it is about the real life comedian Jerry Seinfeld, and the characters are based on real life people. This show is also written by Seinfeld and based on real life scenarios. Of course, one of the most loved parts in this show is Elaine's dancing!



The Amanda Show is hosted by Amanda Bynes and stars Amanda Bynes. The show was like an SNL for kids, which entailed small segments of funny skits. One of the best ones is Bynes' parody of Judge Judy, where she brings in the dancing lobsters at the end of a trial. The Amanda Show also guest stared Drake Bell and Josh Peck from Drake and Josh, which only made people want to watch it more!


The television shows of the early 90s and 2000s listed above are still loved and talked about today. Shows like Lizzie Mcguire, That's So Raven, Spongebob Squarepants, The Cosby Show, Even Stevens, Home Improvement, Zoey 101, Johnny Bravo, and many more have resonated in the hearts of the American people. Unlike many reality shows today, these shows display creativity and character developments. These things relate to audiences on a personal level, which makes people want to watch them more and more. Many of the shows listed above now have spin-off shows, attempting to bring back the greatness of the shows made in the 90s and early 2000s! Keep watching the awesomeness found in these television shows and keep their creativity alive!

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.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
