20 of my Favorite Childhood TV Shows
Pinterest

Yesterday, I told my mom, "I literally have no idea what I should write about this week." Being the child that I am, I always turn down her suggestions, but not this time!
Remember the early 2000s, when you were in elementary school? All you cared about was shopping at Justice and keeping up with the shows on Disney Channel. Life was so much easier back in those days; I wish I could go back. Here are my top 20 TV shows from when I was growing up (in no particular order!)

1. Rolie Polie Olie
"...He's small and smart and round, and in the land of curves and curls, he's the swellest kid around..."

2. Clifford the Big Red Dog

Now that I think about it, why was he so big?


3. The Powerpuff Girls
I remember playing outside at recess, arguing over who would be which Powerpuff Girl. (I always wanted to be Bubbles!)


4. The Big Comfy Couch

This show looks really creepy to me now, but I remember really enjoying it as a child.

5. The Amanda Show
No description needed! I still try to watch this show on YouTube.

6. Angelina Ballerina
Literally, this show made me want to become a ballerina. A ballet dancing mouse...what could be better?!

7. Blue's Clues
It wasn't until recently that I found out that Blue was a girl.


8. Kim Possible
Who doesn't want to be Kim Possible? She's tough, confident, and totally cool.



9. The Naked Brothers Band
I always thought this was a very odd name for a band, but to each his own. I wonder what these kids are up to now.

10. The Wonder Pets
Lenny, Tuck, and Ming-Ming too...

11. The Backyardigans
Also a creepy show, but I guess it appeals to kids.

12. Legends of the Hidden Temple
I wanted to be on this show SO bad.



13. That's So Raven

Did you hear that Disney Channel is making a spin-off???


14. Little Bill
The animation on this show is kind of weird, but whatever...it was still really entertaining.

15. Lazy Town
Honestly, what an odd name for a TV show. As a college student, I fell like I am the mayor of Lazy Town.



16. Dragon Tales
I was OBSESSED with this show. I remember staring out my bedroom window, wishing on a star that I could be on the show. Don't judge, I was a weird child.


17. Bear in the Big Blue House
Was that an actual guy in the costume, or was it just a huge puppet...?

18. Franklin
A TV show about a turtle that has a bunch of neat animal friends! I think this show was based off of a series of books? I don't know, so don't quote me on that.

19. Nickelodeon's Guts
Another awesome game show! This was definitely Nickelodeon's prime.

20. Zoboomafoo
I actually had trouble spelling that!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

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.
