Meet the Reporter: 5 Binge Worthy TV Shows

So long as we're all practicing self-quarantining, odds are the bond between ourselves, our TV, and our couch are going to get a lot stronger. Knowing some good television shows can eliminate what I call "click frustration". Here are the five shows I've been binge watching that won't disappoint.

Yes, they're all over the place, and yes most are 30-minute storyline shows. I never really was a "season" television viewer, I just don't have that much time to dedicate towards one show.

If you like explosions, myths, and dudes with incredible mustaches, they you need to check out re-runs of Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage in this show. I saw an episode the other night that was testing out the age-old myth that a sneeze can travel 30 feet!

4. MLB Network

Yes, I'm working an entire network into my list because I feel like it. You all know by now how deep my love for this sport is. So, whether it's World Series game reruns, "MLB Tonight", or baseball movies all day long…sign me up!

3. Home Town

This "HGTV" show features a very cute and humorous couple (Ben and Erin Napier) who renovate homes in their own hometown, Laurel, Mississippi. They go out of their way to tell the history behind every house they renovate, which I appreciate. Fun Fact: Before I found a love for broadcasting, writing, and marketing, my dream job as a young kid was to become an interior designer.

2. Impractical Jokers

In a world filled with fear and uncertainty at this point in time, we could all use a laugh to get us through each day. That's exactly what Joe Gatto, Brian Quinn, James Murray, and Sal Vulcano give to us with this glorious show on "truTV". Hidden camera challenge shows while real life is happening around these jokesters is so gripping to me. The filmed some scenes at the Palisades Center in West Nyack, New York. I only say this because that mall is a short drive from where I grew up, and I used to go there all the time before I came out to Arizona. Cool little nugget.

1. Family Guy

Anybody shocked this is number one? It's safe to say that Seth MacFarlane is a genius for the creation of this show decades ago. The Griffin family is so relatable in certain episodes. I love the animation, the cutaways, and the young adult targeted humor. It's no surprise that whenever a tv channel has re-runs of this show on, I stop scrolling instantly.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
