The Downfall of Gossip Girl

I think we can all agree that the first season of a show is typically the best. The storyline just starts out and everything is new and exciting. Well, season 1 of Gossip Girl is no different. At a certain point in TV shows, they start adding unnecessary drama or plots just to keep the show running. And honestly, it starts to get annoying and boring.

Is Miss Universe Rigged?

Two judges have quit this year and claim that the judging system is rigged and that it needs to be reformed. They claim that the judging is unfair and is biased. Omar Harfouch quit and claimed the competition was a charade and lacked transparency. Then a few hours later a second judge also posted on instagram that he would not be at the competition and would be withdrawing as a judge. Claude Makélélé stated that he held the competition in the highest regard which made this a very difficult decision.

Cobra Kai Never Dies

How this show even made it to six seasons is beyond me. Most of you probably know about the “hit” Netflix show: Cobra Kai. A spin-off of the Karate Kid franchise whose last movie was so bad they needed to make another one with Ralph Macchio to remind people, “Oh yeah, this exists.”

Netflix’s Avatar the Last Airbender, Will It Fail?

When quarantine first began, many people scrambled to try to get back to a sense of normalcy and comfort. In doing so, people such as myself ended up rewatching many shows that they once enjoyed, whether it be from their childhood or a newer show that was just that good. This made streaming services very interpretive of what became popular in that time. Which is where we find Avatar: The Last Airbender, a Nickelodeon cartoon that ran from 2005-2008.

Peacock’s new show, Girls5Eva

Tina Fey’s new musical comedy Girls5Eva is delightfully funny and refreshingly sardonic. Starring Broadway alumni Sara Bareilles, Renèe Elise Goldsberry, Ashley Park, and Andrew Rannells, along with comedic actresses Busy Phillips and Paula Pell, Girls5Eva is packed with stars.

A Review on Showtime's Black Monday

With streaming services taking over the small screen, Showtime’s Black Monday is a criminally underrated show. Starring a ragtag group of outsiders working at their own stockbroker firm in the 80s, this story focuses on them trying to make it in the “Gentlemen’s Club” known as Wall Street. Season 1 reveals how they eventually caused the Black Monday crash of 1987 (a real stock market crash), while in real life nobody knows how it happened, this show makes up a story on what caused it.
