Tori Vega Has Always Been The Worst Character In Victorious

Now that Victorious is out on Netflix, begging those of us who watched it in our prime to relive our glory days, I am watching the series again and realizing the star of the show was the worst character.

Tori Vega Has Always Been The Worst Character In Victorious

Fall was in the air and Netflix said "Perfect, now we can get all those high school and college kids to bundle up and rewatch some of their old shows."

Victorious was put on Netflix in the beginning of November, and since then, people have been coming to the obvious conclusion that Tori Vega might just be the worst character on the show.. that she is the star of.

When the show was first put on Netflix, my roommates and I all started watching it. Of course we would, and who wouldn't? We just wanted to relive our prime over again. But something struck all of us as we watched from the "Pilot" episode...Tori Vega kind of sucks.

Now, maybe in our middle school minds, we looked at Tori with rose-tinted glasses, but now, sitting on the floor of our dorm, mouths dropped wide open, we clearly see that she is awful.

We all sat there talking about it for a decent amount of time (instead of writing papers...). Why was Tori the star of the show? What made them create the lead of a children's show to be so horrible? Who was going to tell her that Cat and Jade had more talent in their pinky's than she did in the entire show? (Did I say that?)

Let's get into some of the details that make Tori Vega the absolute worst, shall we?

From the very beginning, Tori flirts with beck, who she happens to soon learn is Jade's boyfriend. You read that right; Jade's boyfriend. All within the first episode, just to get revenge on Jade, she kisses Beck right in front of her face. Imagine how you would feel? Probably not too great! Thus kicking off Tori being the worst.

Throughout the show, we clearly see Tori being a little bit desperate, loud, and annoying. Do you remember "The Bird Scene"? She tried to figure out how to get through it by asking everyone what to do, and when she didn't get her way, she handcuffed Cat and Robbie to try to squeeze answers out of them.

Let's not forget when Cat gets a new boyfriend, that just so happens to be her ex and sabotages their date by exploding a cheese fountain onto the two of them. Talk about acting out of desperation, am I right?

We also have to remember how ungrateful Tori is when everyone around her is helping her constantly. How about during her sister Trina's "Birth Week"? Tori can't come up with a gift for Trina. Andre ends up writing, playing, and gathering other people to help Tori sing a song for Trina. Not once does Tori thank Andre for doing all of the work for her sister's birthday.

I understand that this show is about Tori, but as a character, she really has a way of making EVERYTHING about herself. From wiggling her way into other people's relationship business, always stealing the spotlight, and having to drown everyone out by whining a little bit louder; Tori Vega has proven to be the worst.

Finally, because somebody has to say it, Tori just so happens to fall shorter than others in her level of talent. Don't get me wrong, Tori does "make it shine" a good deal, but compared to some of those around her, one might even say she doesn't deserve all of the praise she gets.

I think our young brains were forced to believe Tori was the most talented because she had the most air time. Looking at it now, Cat and Jade crush every performance they give, constantly taking on much more difficult music than Tori ever did. Not only that, but people tend to underestimate Andre's power because he is always behind Tori. But that man can certainly belt a tune and play along as well! All of the secondary characters on Victorious also happen to be extremely talented to the point that Tori getting all of the attention doesn't really make sense to me anymore.

All I can really say is, I am just one opinion out of the millions of us that watched the show when it aired almost a decade ago. Looking back on it now, Tori Vega can be given mega props for starting at an art school as a normal kid and learning to surprise herself and others along the way with her talent; but overall she was more than slightly overrated.

With a selfish and ungrateful attitude, average vocals in comparison to those around her, and an uptight, dramatic vibe; Tori Vega was and still reigns as the worst character on Victorious.

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.
