Netflix's 'Fuller House' Has Gotten Plenty Of Bad Reviews
People.com

Last fall we were all informed that the cast of ABC's "Full House" was going to have a reunion. However, this was not just any reunion. We were going to see Danny, Uncle Jesse, Joey, D.J, Stephanie, and the rest of the gang on a new Netflix original series "Fuller House" and the 90s kid inside of all of us had never been more excited. Below is the trailer just in case you have been on the internet for a whole month and missed it.

Well, last Friday was the day. Thirteen episodes of season one of "Fuller House" were released for your viewing pleasure.

The catch is many reviews have actually been quite negative. The plot, first of all, seems to mirror exactly the plot of the original "Full House". D.J. is raising her three children with the help of Stephanie and Kimmie after the death of her husband. Sound familiar? The actor that is playing her youngest son is actually a set of twins and the laugh track is undoubtedly still there. To some viewers, this is exactly the nostalgia they were hoping for, but to many it just seems too repetitive.

Another problem with the show is that it is trying to keep its sappy and light-hearted, life lesson teaching tone while at the same time incorporating the dry humor that is often found in today's TV sitcoms. The combination of the two has lead to a slightly awkward tone to the show.

In all honestly, most people will watch it anyways just because they are curious. I know that I did. Oh well, Netflix, at least, you tired. Maybe if the Olsen twins had decided to come back it would've been better. I guess we'll never know.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
