What is Galavant?

Think Princess Bride/Ella Enchanted/Monty Python's Holy Grail

What is Galavant?
TV Guide

Awhile back we talked about one my favorite TV shows (The Great British Bake Off) that not a lot of people had heard of and I was glad to see that I got a few actually interested in the show. So with that in mind I decided to talk about another favorite of mine that also deserves more love and that is ABC's Galavant.

This little tv show is an adorable medieval comedy musical (think Princess Bride/Ella Enchanted/Monty Python's Holy Grail) with just a hint of Disney magic sprinkled in there. Honestly there's no way, to me at least, that you could watch it without feeling a smile grow on your face. Here's why:

The music is super catchy! Here is the first song that will also give you a jist of the show's plot. I'm apologizing now for when it gets stuck in your head later.


It had some pretty big named Disney Alum work on it.

If you're wondering why that song kind of sounds like you've heard it somewhere before I can explain why. Most of the songs were written and composed by the famous Alan Menken and Glenn Slater who worked on you know tiny little unknown productions like; Disney's Beauty and the Beast

and Disney's The Little Mermaid

Also quite a few episodes were in fact written by Scott Weigner aka the voice of Aladdin himself/ Steve from Full House.

And it's charmingly funny and not afraid to poke fun at itself.

On a sad note there's only two season's but you could pretty much watch it all in one day!

See even the hunky Jamie Fraser say's it's ok to finish a show in one day.

So I hope that peaked your interest about it. You can watch all two seasons now on Netflix and to keep you're hopes on where we might find more Galavant in the future I hear talk that there is a possible rumor of a Broadway show being created. Link is here for that information.

With that I will now end this article with my favorite on going joke from season two which trust me you will also enjoy once you finally see that show.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

The transition from living with parents to being on my own was an experience I couldn't have even imagined- both a good and a bad thing. Here's a personal archive of a few of the things I learned after going away for the first time.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
