8 Comedy TV Shows You Should Watch That Aren't "The Office"
NBC

We all know "The Office" is absolute gold. However, if you want to avoid sitting down to watch something, scrolling forever and then watching another episode of "The Office," this list is for you.

These comedies have excellent casts, are witty, and will have you laughing out loud and wondering why you didn't watch them sooner.

Skip hitting play on "The Office" and check out one of these great comedies instead:

1. "The Good Place"

This after-life comedy that centers around the principals of ethics may seem a bit too out there for you at first, but the running jokes and hilarious one-liners by robot Janet will keep you coming back for more.

2. "Brooklyn Nine-Nine"

Once you get to know this cast of characters, you'll love them. Each member of the "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" squad brings comedic genius to the table. Andy Samberg stars as a lead detective who doesn't quite have his stuff together, but every member of the cast brings something to the table.

3. "30 Rock"

What more needs to be said besides Tina Fey? Liz Lemon and Jack Donaghy are larger than life characters who may produce more great one-liners than Michael Scott (don't @ me) and are some of the most quotable and entertaining characters on TV.

4. "Arrested Development"

The ongoing storylines and jokes in "Arrested Development" can't be beaten. If you're looking for a show that will keep you laughing and that you can rewatch a million times without getting sick of it, "Arrested Development" is it.

5. "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"

Who knew a show about 4 girls being kidnapped and held against their will in a bunker in a cult could be funny? Ellie Kemper nails her performance as Kimmy Schmidt, but her new partner in crime Titus Andromedon will have you in stitches.

6. "Seinfeld"

It's an absolute classic. And if you haven't watched it yet, you should. There's really nothing else that needs to be said about "Seinfeld."

7. "Broad City"

Two twenty-something stoner girls living their best (and worst) lives in NYC. Insanely hilarious and relatable, even for guys. Abbi and Ilana draw you in but supporting characters Bevers, Lincoln and Garol will keep making it worth your while to watch.

8. "Parks and Recreation"

Many fans of "The Office" have already dived into this sitcom. But if you haven't yet, the great Leslie Knope played by Amy Poehler and the unbeatable Ron Swanson played by Nick Offerman will have you hooked.

What are you waiting for? Get to watching!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
