All My Parents Do Is Watch TV Land Re-Runs And I'm Fed Up With It
TV Guide

I'm not really sure what it is but some reasons my parents think TV Land is just the hottest channel ever. I mean, yeah, it has some good shows from the past. But hang on. THEY ARE FROM THE PAST. This is 2018. We have the ability to watch anything we want! There are handful of channels out there with brand new, action packed shows. Of course, my parents would never know this though. In our house the TV stays on one channel...


1. Me: Do we really have to watch M*A*S*H* again?

Mom: *says nothing

Dad: * says nothing


That's fine. It's not like we have Netflix shows to catch up on or anything.


2. How my Dad looks when he watches the same shows every night on TV Land.


Someone come get my Dad. Help me, please.


3. When my Mom asks me, "Have we seen this episode before?"


Yes, we did. In fact, we watched it last night too. So bye now.


4. How my parents act when I talk and it's not commercial break yet.


Well, I guess it's punishable by death.


5. Me trying to figure out why we have cable, premium channels, and Netflix but literally just watch the same shows we watched at the turn of the century.


It's almost like we time traveled back to 1999! We have streaming now for a reason!


6. Me to me: I could unplug the cable right now and end this all.



And then they would have no choice BUT to watch Netflix.


7. How my Dad acts as soon as he gets home from work and turns on the TV.


I guess it's just his hobby now.


8. Me: Can we watch an episode of "Longmire" tonight?

Mom: No, it's too late.

Dad: No, it's too late.


*proceeds to watch three more episodes of "Everybody Loves Raymond."


9. Actual footage of my Mom telling me to be quiet when they watch TV.


For real! Who found this video of my Mom!?


10. When it's a marathon of "The Andy Griffith Show" and you just keep hearing that theme song. Over and over again.


SOS. THE WHISTLING NEVER STOPS. SOS.


11. When I'm watching some vampire show on Netflix and my parents yell at me to "turn something good on."


Okay. Well, you know, like some people actually enjoy TV shows from this decade! Okay!?


12. Me: Mom! Dad! These shows are boring! I don't know how you guys watch them every single night!

My parents:



*throws hands into air. That's it! I give up!


13. Me when I sit down to watch TV with my parents every night, full on knowing that we are about to watch the same shows we watched last night. But I do it anyways cause I love my parents.


Alright, ya'll caught me. They are annoying, they laugh at the same jokes of the same re-runs. But come on? Parents are cool!

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.
