10 Reasons 'The Carrie Diaries' Needs A Reboot, ASAP

I did not expect to love this series as much as the original, but boy, was I wrong.

In This Article:

Last summer I began watching "The Carrie Diaries." As a long time "Sex and the City" fan, I did not expect to love this series as much as the original, but boy, was I wrong. I assume some of it had to do with the characters being closer in age to me, or the very attractive male love interests, but I was deeply saddened to hear it was only two seasons. I, like many other fans of the show, are still waiting for it to be picked back up again, and even though it seems unlikely, plenty of shows have been rebooted lately, and I think this should definitely be one of them.

1. That ending was not enough

I think we all knew Carrie wasn't going to end up with Sebastian because she moves onto other men in "Sex and the City," but that ending was not good enough. I need to know how little baby Carrie meets little baby Miranda and little baby Charlotte and how America's favorite brunch group came to be.

2. We need more Austin Butler in our lives

Or as my boyfriend calls him, "that sexy, sexy man."

3. We need to know what happened to Walt and Bennett

I loved everything about Walt's storyline and his path to self-discovery, and Bennett is always so supportive of Walt as he was figuring out who he really is. I really want to know what happens to them and if they will be together down the line.

4. I am dying to know how Samantha became the Samantha we know and love on "Sex and the City"

I feel like we barely got any background on Samantha, apart from her working in a bar and being Donna's cousin. I still have no idea how she went from being a bartender to flying all over the country drinking cosmos in the span of about 10 years.

5. We need more Larissa

I would kill to have Larissa's confidence. She has some of the best lines in the entire show and I need to have more of her in my life.

6. What happened to Dorrit?

She's never mentioned in "Sex and the City," I didn't even know Carrie had a sister before watching "The Carrie Diaries." Whatever happened to the baby sister who wore a bit too much eye makeup?

7. The wisdom that came out of this 16-year-old

"The Carrie Diaries" had a quote for every situation that a teenager could find themselves in, and handled every situation with grace, something a lot of teen shows are lacking now.

8. The drama

So many love interests in two short seasons, who knows how many a third would bring?

9. The 80s throwback

I mean, just look at the outfits.

10. The love

Besides all of the romance, there was so much friend-love in this show and family moments that you don't really see anymore on television.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
