Logan Reeves Ethan Lenhart News Editor Guest Writer Between cable, Netflix and Youtube, there is a plethora of different T. V. shows and movies to watch. However, there is one that When you think of a TV show what pops in to your head? A good plot, interesting characters, and action/excitement right? A out does the rest, The CW’s The 100 has to be one of my favorite shows on the air. TV show that grabs your attention and never lets go? Or maybe a show that appeals to your emotions and feelings? Well, The I first came across this show on accident when looking for something to watch on Netflix, after the first few episodes, I was 100 is exactly the show you are looking for. Now you may ask, what is The 100? Well, The 100 is a post-apocalyptic tv show that hooked. The show takes place in the future after the earth was semi evacuated due to a total nuclear fallout. After 100 years on the takes place hundreds of years after a nuclear apocalypse. All the nations of the world destroy each other in nuclear and the space station named “The Ark,” 100 of the teenagers in lock up are sent to Earth to see if the ground is still habitable. Once they only way to survive is to go up into space. So that’s exactly what these people did. They go up into space and survive there for one reach the ground, their whole world has changed. hundred years anxiously awaiting to go back to “the ground”. Well their wish came half true. All crimes committed on the ARK On Netflix, the show is on its fourth season and we fans are eagerly waiting for the fifth. Like any good show, there has been (the space station they live in) are punishable by death no matter how small, but if someone is under the age of 18 then they get many lovable characters that suddenly die off. What makes things interesting is wen the bad guys either become heroes after time put in jail until they come of age. The time came when 100 convicted children were to be sent to “the ground” since their crimes or disappearing anywhere from a few episodes to an entire season. This leads for some great suspense and an even better story have made them expendable. The 100 get sent to the ground and a whole new world, and all its terrors await them. line. The 100 in my opinion is one of the greatest shows of all time mostly because it’s post-apocalyptic. But it has some hidden The characters face their own personal problems when someone that they become close to dies. However, they have to put that gems in it as well. First and foremost, is the flaws of the characters. Every single character, no matter how great or terrible they aside when they are faced with life or death situations or trying to keep their civilization together. Both of which are considerably are, has their own secrets and flaws/perfections.The 100 has a murderer in their midst but is he really the big bad wolf as every- difficult in themselves, but once you take into account all of the different conflicts going on simultaneously, viewers gain a greaterone makes him out to be? Another thing that makes this show stand out is the incredible acting and action sequences.

But one of the things that I really enjoy about Whether or not Sci-fi drama is your forte,The 100 is a definite much watch for anyone looking for something new to watch.The this show is how it appeals to teenagers. Life is complicating and it can be dark at times, but one of the themes to this show is to show is also great for binge watching on those long weekends! never give up no matter how hard it is to survive. Teenagers can find a lot of common ground with this show mostly because of its Image Credit: twdiran.com drama and, even though it is in the future, resembles how life can be.

The X-Files has been a banner part of my life since grade eight on middle school. At first I believed it to reasoning for believing so is expressed. First of all, this decades-old comedy has ultimately accomplished the one thing many be just another boring police/detective show but it turned out to be so much more. shows cannot, which would be standing the test of time. The Golden Girls was very popular when it ran from 1985-1992, The-X Files written by the legendary Chris Carter first introduced the world to believerAgent and skeptic Agent Dana but its references and characters are still mentioned all the time in pop culture today. I watch this show all the time with my Scully, portrayed by David Duchovny and respectfully, in 1993. The X-Files is about the agents working on a spe- parents, and I remember being my shocked in seventh grade when I found out that my then 12-year old classmates had an cial set of unfinished cases calledThe X-Files. These certain cases are unsolved for the reasons that they are not as straightforward as interest in the show, as well. Part of the reason this show has remained relevant for so many years would most definitely be one might think. All cases involve some sort of paranormal event or simple unexplained phenomenon. The show is of course famous the heartwarming characters it possesses, and the interesting story line-after all, it is about a bunch of old ladies! For me, it for aliens as it is the main creature that shows up. Agent Mulder’s sister was supposedly, according to him, abducted by aliens at a seemed too obscure and odd not to watch; I ended up loving it once I did!

I imagine that audiences found this unexpected con- spiracy to cover up the of extraterrestrial life. “Why is The X-Files the best show?” I will tell you why. First, no episode nection with characters that were so different from them appealing, which most likely added to the show’s morale and charm. is the same! You never know what to expect every time you turn on an episode. The show is filled with such dynamic and unique The show, by the way, was absolutely hilarious, mainly for the way it presented everyday problems and over the-top scenarios “monsters of the week.” Second, the show has good pacing. It knows when to focus on some new monsters and when to switch back at the hands of a group of elderly women; it often led to witty one-liners and dry dialogue. Though The Golden Girls ended to the main story arc of a government conspiracy. This brings with it amazing character development. Watching the rocky relation- more than twenty years ago, and all but one of its lead actors (the great Betty White) have passed, its charm, humor, and ship between Mulder and Scully turn into a beautiful on screen partnership, you will be yelling like the rest of us for them to kiss inevitable hilarity still remain to this day.

Alexis Garibay Leslie Velazquez Feature Editor Guest Writer It is a Saturday evening and I am most likely in my room lounging about, but the one thing keeping me from dying due to boredom Nowadays, there are several TV shows watched and loved by audiences of any age, anywhere. Some people watch comedies, others is the greatest show ever made called Friends. No matter what mood I happen to be in that day, I can always count on Friends to make horror, action, and so on. Up to this day, there has hardly been a show viewed by the whole public. Most TV shows rise to their peak my day even better. Friends consists of ten total seasons all starting from the year 1994 to the year 2004. number of views, whether over a long period of time or just a few weeks, but are forgotten over time.

After a few months, the many obstacles, but always manage to stick together even through the toughest of times. Each character of course has their own memory of the beloved TV shows collapse, fans decrease in numbers, and well, you get the drift. Some shows even have a spin-off, quirks, but the bond between is too strong to be dismayed by their flaws. nevertheless not always turning out better than the original show, for example, Fuller House. However, there has been one show that To introduce each character, I’ll begin with Rachel Green, who kicks off the show by being a waitress at the gang’s hangout spot, has stayed the same throughout the decades.

He never fails to make a witty joke even at the worst of times, but it helps lighten up the mood.
