Underrated Shows That Overdeliver
USNews

Many well-known shows are very good. However, there are better shows just lurking in the distance that not many people are aware of or could conceive their incredibleness. These underrated shows and the messages sent from them are literally constantly relevant in the watchers lives, while not being so mainstream that they are diluted with political correctness and constant grievances of making everything a little bit too socially acceptable . These shows are just trying to elevate small talk to medium talk, bringing in the reality of life, love, and friendship.

1. Chuck

This about the average computer-whiz-next door living out everyone's dream of having a computer in their brain, becoming a secret agent, and falling in love with their handler.

2. Scorpion

Scorpion is a group of certified geniuses coming together solving complex crimes for US homeland security, while also being loosely based on the life of Walter O'Brien.

3. Shameless

While both the UK and US version are equally fantastic, it is a comedy-drama about a dysfunctional family which we can all relate to.

4. Lovesick (Scrotal Recall)

"Lovesick" is a British sitcom focused on basically one guy and his ultimate plight, the love he has for his best friend Evie, and the girls he goes through till he gets to her.

5.Love


The most honest representation of modern dating and everything about it that is kinda great and kinda sucks.

6. Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll

Remember Jade from "Victorious"? Yeah, she's in this and she literally Rocks!

7. Jane the Virgin

Honestly, the title of this show should pull you in enough. Every question that you have ever had is answered in the way of a satirical rom-com.

8. MONK

This is what happens when an OCD recluse solves crimes.

9. Psych

Best friends solving crime and one of them is psychic? This is literally an indescribable paradigm of entertainment!

10. Sons of Anarchy

"Sons of Anarchy" is about an outlaw motorcycle club operating in Charming, with lots and lots of family drama.Once you see these you may never be able to stop watching, because all of these are recommended by 4 out of 5 people that recommend things.

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.
