Little, Tanner (TTH) Who Is America 10
Who Is America is the Satirist's Sacha Baron Cohen's most recent television series which aired on SHOWTIME. It features Sacha Baron Cohen (who you may know from Borat) as the lead actor and also the executive director. In this series he interviews with well-known celebrities and politicians disguised as different characters. Some of these interviews ended up becoming very controversial and some politicians even lost their jobs over the outrageous statements they made. Sacha Baron Cohen has a unique style of being able to get good reactions out of people by using satire.Sacha Baron Cohen is also known for having great disguises and being very hard to recognize. I personally really liked the series, however it is very offensive in some episodes and was hard to find a clip that was appropriate to show during class.

Ballew, Anna (MW) His Dark Materials 100
"His Dark Materials," is a TV show that can be found on HBO, a subscription-based platform.. The story was originally published in 1995 as, "The Golden Compass of North America." The show is in a visually captivating world other than ours. Like the original 1995 publishing, many aspects of the show are the same. The story follows the main character, Lyra Belacqua played by Dafne Keen. Lyra is a young girl who's daemon often takes the form of a white ermine. In this world, every human has a daemon from birth that can shift from one animal to another until they "settle" as one animal when a child reaches adulthood. The story follows Lyra through a dangerous world. She learns that trust is dangerous very early on. Her first lesson in trust kicked the show off to a riveting start. She entrusted a woman named Marisa Coulter, played by Ruth Wilson, who was not who she seemed to be. She was much more important than Lyra could have imagined. Protected and sheltered in adolescence, Lyra longed to join the world. Once she was thrust into the world, she found herself in many situations and in many plots with no answer in sight. Lyra never expected she would be as important as she was. The executive producers for this show are Jane Tranter, Dan McCulloch, Otto Bathurst, Carolyn Blackwood, Joel Collins, Toby Emmerich, Deborah Forte, Julie Gardner, Tom Hooper, Ben Irving, Philip Pullman, Ryan Rasmussen and Jack Thorne.

Carter, Jared (MW) Kidding
Kidding is a fictionalized dramatic, comedy following the life of Jeff Pickles, a Mr. Rodgers-esque children's show host. Jim Carrey plays Jeff Pickles, a kind, neurotic, child-like man who hosts the largest and longest-running children's program in the world. Kidding follows Pickles shortly after the tragic death of his 14-year-old son and from there devolves into a character study of a saint-like man who struggles to deal with his own mental health while maintaining a positive, unbothered image for his famous TV show. With great production, directing, and creative editing, this is a very compelling series that may not receive as much recognition because it streams on Showtime. However, Showtime has given much creative liberty to its executive producers: Dave Holstein, Jim Carrey himself, and Jason Bateman (star of Arrested Development and Ozark). The second season can be caught airing this Sunday, February 9th on Showtime's streaming service or cable network. (The full first season is also on Showtime).

Cohrs, Chandlyr (MW) Totally Spies 100
The animated series Totally Spies was one of my all-time favorite shows growing up. The characters range in diversity, and the colors and animation are great- able to captivate young minds and keep them entertained. The humor is there- adults who don't mind animation, could follow along and be enticing for the older crowd. There is action and adventure in every episode, going to different places around the world and dealing with "Spy Entail" and a fictional look into the life of undercover spies. The main characters, Clover, Sam and Alex remain consistent with their attitudes and nature/personality throughout each season and episode, while the settings offer great changes throughout each season and episode.

Martinez, Gabriela (MW) Nurses Who Kill
In the Netflix documentary "Nurses Who Kill" it tells of many who pursue a career in nursing specifically to hurt patients that they're supposed to be taking care of. It is definitely scary to think that you put your life in the hands of someone who says they will take care of you and they do the exact opposite of that. I work as a nurse right now so it is hard to think another nurse could be hurting patients and no one knows. The series is very interesting and shows the reality of people who have issues within themselves while working in a professional place. The series taels about many different nurses from different backgrounds, but I thought it was interesting and frightening.

This program is an easy watch about make-up artists being challenged, mentored, and given opportunities in the field that they would not otherwise have. I particularly enjoyed being privy to atmospheres I haven't seen before - special effects make-up, backstage of a runway show, and looks from different eras. I do not watch make-up videos or do much make-up related and still found this show entertaining, so hopefully, you will find it worth your time.
Abnet, Zekarias (TTh) The Politician 100
The Politician is a Netflix original serious about a high school student in upper-class Santa Barbra, California who's running for school body president with a life long goal of actually one day becoming POTUS. Funny enough the show is little about pure politicians and more about the absurdly serious way our main character Payton and his group of friends take this insignificant race for student body president. The show has healthy number of stars, featuring Gwyneth Paltrow as Payton's mother and Jane Fonda making an appearance towards the end of the season, though she will be much more prominent in the second season to come. Outside of the hilarity of the storyline and its main characters, the Politician shines in beauty. The show has great writing that's crisply delivered by diverse and colorful cast of characters. The Netflix original is executively produced by Ryan Murphy.

Cells at Work personifies the body's trillions of cells, and follows the story of a red blood cell as she tries to complete her job delivering oxygen and nutrients to different parts of the body amidst the various different ailments and illnesses that their home, the body, goes through on a daily basement. Cells at Work is not only entertaining but also rather educational, as many of the episodes draw from different scientific processes that our body goes through, as well as explains different types of cells in our bodies like White Blood Cells, Platelets, B Cells and plenty more. It's also incredibly ridiculous and over the top, which just adds to the comedy of the show.

Mansell, Trevor (TTh) The League 100
The league is a comedy television series that used to be on Netflix but is now exclusively shown on Hulu. The league is about a very close group of friends that compete in a fantasy football league every year, in which a new season of the show brings a new season for the league also. There's not really a main character in the show, instead focusing on every member of the group equally which includes the likes of Ruxin, Pete, Taco, Jenny, Kevin and Andre. There is also another character known as "Shiva" who is a girl from their high school that they named the fantasy league's trophy over. The main plot to this show is everyone basically doing whatever they can to win the league and get their hands on the "Shiva", as well as clowning on each other in the process. I'd say it is a great show for college friends to watch together as it can be a bit inappropriate at times.

Haverland, Sarah (MW) The Family 100
The Family, directed by Jesse Moss, is a documentary series that is based on a book. Jeff Scarlet wrote the original book, and he is the one that saw The Family first hand. It goes into depth about Doug Coe, the associate director, and the "secretive conservative organization" that was happening at Washington D.C. Coe had strong beliefs in his faith and believed that God's work is best done in the public eye. It has been a big part of politics since President Dwight E. Eisenhower but always seemed to be overlooked by the public eye. The Family is the organizers of the National Prayer breakfast, and this documentary shows that it isn't exactly what it says. Many people never saw the effect of this "organization" until the book, and now the documentary was released.
