I'm not talking about "Jersey Shore."

12 MTV Shows That We Need To Bring Back
https://phatfriend.com/

Does anyone even watch MTV anymore? I barely do, unless there's randomly a good movie on late at night (usually on the weekends). Shows like "16 and Pregnant," "Teen Mom," "Catfish" and "Ridiculousness" have taken over the entire channel. While they were interesting at first, they got old really fast. MTV used to have entertaining, but slightly ridiculous, shows. If kids today were to watch them now, they would think these shows were weird, but my friends and I used to be obsessed. MTV should definitely show old reruns of these shows, or even get them on Netflix.

Here's a list of classic MTV shows that need to make a comeback.


1. "Parental Control" (2006-2010)

Imagine if your parents hated your significant other, set you up on two other blind dates and then you had to choose one of the three to continue dating? Would you trust their judgement?

2. "My Super Sweet 16" (2005-2008)

We all thought the girls (and sometimes guys) on this show were ridiculously bratty and spoiled, but we couldn't help but be slightly jealous of them.


3. "Engaged & Underage" (2007-2008)

This show followed many couples around who were between the ages of 18 and 22 in the final weeks leading to their wedding. Most of these couples were completely awful, but this just added to the entertainment.


4. "Silent Library" (2009-2012)

This game show was hilarious. It feautured many bands, celebrities and regular people who had to remain silent in a library while performing "punishment" challenges.

5. "Disaster Date" (2009-2011)

If my friends ever set me up on a blind date with a guy who did everything I hated, I really don't think I would survive.

6. "MTV Cribs" (2000-2011)

They need to bring this show back and feature new celebrites. Or even bring back previous celebrities and let us see their homes now.


7. "Next" (2005-2008)

All the contestants' personal facts were the best part of this show.


8. "Paris Hilton's: My New BFF"

I still can't believe this was an actual show. Paris Hilton actually had a reality show where girls (and sometimes guys) competed to be her BFF.

9. "Pimp My Ride" (2004-2007)

My car needs to be pimped out.


10. "A Shot At Love with Tila Tequila" (2007-2008)

This dating show was very similar to "The Bachelor," and probably much more entertaining. And of course, she barely ended up with anyone who "won" the show.

11. "Laguna Beach" (2004-2006)

Sometimes I see reruns of this show in the summer, and obviously I sit on my couch and watch them all morning. We all wanted to live the life of Lauren Conrad.


12. "The Hills" (2006-2010)

This was the best thing to happen to MTV since "Laguna Beach."

MTV do us a favor and bring some of these back. Or at least give us reruns!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
