TV Shows to Binge TV Shows to Binge, cont. By: Tiffany Castaneda Auces Criminal Minds is another show to catch. I personally thought that there would be I have never watched it but I have heard such nothing to do during this pandemic, but I was great things about it. Criminal Minds is very pop- so wrong.

The Vampire Diaries has eight seasons it is Well out of all the shows mentioned, the based on the books written by L.J. Smith...then only PG13 show was Julie and the Phantoms.

Movie Review: Movie Review: cont., The Second Born Royals: The part where the teacher was injured while he was just trying to protect one of his students. I also Secret Society liked that part because the teacher cared about his By: Brianna Keese students so much that he would go out and save a student like that. I just watched the movie “Second Born Royals” and I thought it was a really good I liked the lessons I got from this movie, movie. I'm going to share some parts of the especially the lesson about teamwork. This movie movie that were my favorite and who the best showed that teamwork is so important in life actors in this movie were. “Second Born because doing things alone, you only have what Royals” is about the second born children in you can offer but if you have a team you have so the royal families but there is something many other skills, strengths, and talents to work different about these kids that you will find out with and make something even better. I liked how about in the movie. all of the characters never gave up; they would keep trying and try to build the others up. The movie shows a lot of teamwork because the kids realize they can't do things on I would rate this movie an A+ or a 10/10. their own. They need a team with strengths and weaknesses so they can put all their skills together and be a strong and powerful group together. The second born royals are sent to summer school but they get a little surprise that they didn’t expect when they showed up. There are five main characters, the second born children in the royal families. The five kids are Sam, January, Tuma, Prince Matteo, and princess Roxana. I think all the characters in this movie were great. I feel like they all fit their character perfectly and just did a really good job. My favorite character from the movie was Princess Roxana because she never gave up when things were hard; she would sometimes have trouble to keep going but she always found a way. My favorite actresses were Peyton Lee, who plays Sam and Olivia Deeble, who plays Princess Roxana. I like these two girls because they are strong leaders in real life and in the movie and just really showed girl power. There was so much going on in the movie and I really liked that about the movie. Something new was always happening, the characters were always learning, practicing, or helping others in some way. I did not like the
