5 Shows That Need To Come To Netflix
wolbertsweb.com

Netflix has been wonderful about changing things up these last few weeks. Although some changes have involved great add-ons such as "A Cinderella Story" and "Zootopia," we have also lost a few good ones as well. Therefore, I decided to make a list of not only the shows that need to make a comeback, but the ones I think always belonged on Netflix.

1. Psych


When I found out that Shawn Spencer and Burton “Gus” Guster were no longer going to be a click away I was tempted to write a letter to Netflix (if that’s possible). The show Psych has been a comfort to me. I cannot count the amount of times I fell asleep on my couch while Shawn and Gus saved Santa Barbara with their silly antics. It made me feel safe. Well, not anymore!

2. Wizards of Waverly Place


Though I am not a huge Disney Channel fan, I love magic! Any show about magic I will watch. This show I found to be oddly comforting and I actually didn’t get into it until it was on Netflix. It was nice to watch the Russo family try to navigate their normal lives while teaching their children magic. And I loved watching Justin (David Henrie) try to keep his younger sister Alex (Selena Gomez) out of trouble and usually fail. It was fun. It was colorful and family-oriented. And I miss it.

3. Gilligan's Island


Most of my childhood was spent watching the classics. I really wish we could see more old-time television shows on Netflix and not just all of the new stuff. I would love to be able to watch the seven Castaways fail to get off of their deserted island because of Gilligan’s bumbling antics. And yes, before you ask, I memorized the theme song.

4. Get Smart


And I’m not talking about the movie remake with Steve Carell. Although I love Steve Carell, no one can replace the original performances of Don Adams as the infamous Agent 86 and Barbara Feldon as Agent 99. It’s a classic and I think more people need to be educated on what all of the remakes are based upon. Think about it –– the next generation will associate Cinderella with Lily James and Belle with Emma Watson!

5. Boy Meets World


The way I see it, if they can put the spin-off series on Netflix, they should also provide the originals. As much as "Girl Meets World" rides on the nostalgia, I still prefer "Boy Meets World." In my personal opinion, it was way less preachy and really showed the dark sides of adolescence. They showed the ugly and funny metamorphosis of teenage years through the characters of Cory, Shawn and Topanga. "Girl Meets World" maintains a cleanliness that "Boy Meets World" avoids. Plus the jokes were way funnier and there are a couple of seasons where we can enjoy a not-so-stupid Eric Mathews.

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.
