Elections were pretty nerve racking and the results were shocking. Let's reminisce on the good shows that remind us of those carefree days. One of my favorites: As Told By Ginger.
As Told By Ginger was a show that followed the life of teenage Ginger Foutley. She goes through pre-teen/teen life just as any normal adolescent would, that's what makes this show so relatable. You have the popular girls/boys, then you have the teachers you like/hate, your parents are embarrassing etc.
This show aired sixteen years ago (I was around 6), and I barely understood what she was going through at the time. At around 13 or maybe 14 years old I totally understood what she was going through. After a long day at school I would turn to my diary to record the events that happened throughout that particular day just as Ginger did. As I think about it now, my teenage life was a little similar to hers, I didn't have many friends and my mom was not as "perfect" as other moms.
After Ginger, my favorite character was Miranda played by Cree Summer (my girl). She had all the spice and her sarcasm was incredibly funny. I wouldn't mind her as a friend in real life now because I know I would get a kick out of her sarcasm.
This is my favorite episode because Ginger got lost in the sauce and I learned to never get lost in the sauce. Never get to engulfed in yourself (or somebody else's self in this case) that you forget what or who made you. Don't drown.
Teenagers today can relate to this show, preteens today can relate to this show, cause life as we know it hasn't changed at all.
This cartoon shouldn't had been laid to rest.
