Top 10 Cartoon Characters I Would Smash
The cartoons I watched as a child were a very important part of my development into who I am today. They helped form my sense of humor, my appreciation for diverse storylines, and most importantly, what type of people I ended up feeling attracted to. Of course, you can just reflect certain fictional characters and I'll find myself falling head over heels for you, but you can also just obsess over these characters with me and I'll still slowly find love for you.

7 80s Female Cartoon Characters that ‘Stranger Things’ Heroine Eleven Would Love
Everything 80s is awesome again, thanks to the Netflix smash hit Stranger Things. The series is loaded with pop culture references from the era of New Coke and mall rats, but it’s seriously lacking in homages to beloved 80s cartoons. During Season 3, all viewers got was Dustin coming out as a Brony long before it was a thing by explaining to Erica that she’s a nerd just like him for loving My Little Pony. The only animation that viewers actually saw came in the form of the old Woody Woodpecker cartoons that Slurpee-obsessed Soviet scientist Alexei, aka “Smirnoff,” found so hilarious.

7 Sad Moments From Netflix's 'Jailbirds'
To help fans wait for the next 'Orange is The New Black,' Netflix made another original show that features women in jail. This time, it's a documentary. It's called 'Jailbirds', and it has caused quite the controversial debate on what is ethical. The women who agreed to this show were very bored, and I'm sure being interviewed gave them quite the opportunity to feel like they are being listened to. Was it wrong to take advantage of women in jail in order to make new entertainment? Or was this a good opportunity to give a voice to people being incarcerated?

5 Under-Appreciated Cartoons
Cartoons... we've all grown up with them in some way or another. Whether it's a newspaper comic strip, a good movie, or a memorable line; cartoons are a part of almost every kid's formative years. Of course, as new titles are released, the older ones fade into obscurity. With that in mind, I thought I'd do something a little bit different, and possibly, launch a new series covering under-appreciated cartoons.

'Criminal Minds' Worst Episodes
Criminal Minds is a great show, as we can all agree, I am sure. But every season, though there are many great episodes, there is always one that just doesn't meet the mark. It just doesn't capture our attention, or just seems like a filler episode compared to the rest. This is a list, starting at season 1 going all the way to season 14 of the worst episodes in each season.

4 Cartoons You Should Rewatch as an Adult
I think we all had cartoons we really loved when we were little. And by we, I mean the we who watched cartoons in the mid-2000s to the early 2010s. In my (albeit early) adulthood, I have been rewatching some of my favorite cartoons from when I was younger (thank you, Hulu). So all of these I have rewatched myself. Between the sense of nostalgia and the hidden dirty jokes I never got when I was younger, it's almost like watching a new show. It brings me back to a happy and simple time, I hope as you read through my list, it does the same for you. These aren't in any particular order either.
