Vague On The How

I'm not sure if you're familiar with my article about reboots and how they are some of the worst films of the century, but they are and it sucks. I think what bothers me more than anything about reboots (expect a gross lack of originality) is the fact that some studio green lit a movie/show we've already seen and love, but some of our favorite shows can't seem to get more than 2 seasons before cancellation.

Think I'm exaggerating? Just ask fans who have petitioned for shows like "Reaper," "Firefly," "Ash Vs. The Evil Dead" and honestly the list goes on and on. Sometimes fans are met in the middle with a movie (i.e. "Serenity"), but oftentimes we find ourselves pining for the show that could've been. The great loves and plot lines that could only come about in season 5, once our protagonist really sees her strength and learns to love again. Or something like that. We don't write the show, just obsess about it.

Unfortunately, too many shows get the ax because of stupid ratings while fans cry quietly in unison on online forums.

Luckily for some of us, streaming Titans like Netflix and Hulu have jumped in to save the day. With renewals of canceled cable series like "The Mindy Project," "Arrested Development" and "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" these companies have addressed what we as fans have always felt; But what about us?

And now Hulu has made an announcement that will have women in their late 20's and early 30's all over screaming with joy and hardly breathing at the idea of the return of everyone's favorite bad boy, Logan Echolls. That's right folks, 2004's cult classic super-sleuth teen drama "Veronica Mars" is coming back.

If you're as big of a fan of the show and my sister and I, you likely donated to the 2013 Kickstarter for the "Veronica Mars" movie, saw it in theaters and even got the t-shirt. Now while the movie was awesome and fulfilled so many of our hopes as fans, that's really all it was, a 2-hour heaping pile of fan service.

Now, Rob Thomas, I'm not saying I'm not grateful, but I only wish the movie had felt more like an expansion of the story instead of a "how much can we pack into this film so that fans feel satisfied because odds are they will never get to see these characters in a new situation ever again?"

Well, I assume Rob understood that if he managed to successfully pitch the series' return to Hulu. I'm sure Kristen Bell's insane stardom from "Frozen" and undying love for the character that put her on the map certainly didn't hurt its chances either.

No matter how it happened or why it came to be, fans are beyond grateful and can't wait to see what everyone's favorite blonde-haired private investigator has in store.

Not familiar with "Veronica Mars?" Well, you've got time to get acquainted, as the series' new release is still TBD. Though we're betting it won't be until after Rob finishes up with "iZombie," its final season set to premiere this fall.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
