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.

Reavis, Alexandra (MW) Glow Up 10
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.
Griffin, Riley (MW) Cells at Work 100
Cells at Work is basically if Osmosis Jones was an anime. 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.

To sustain himself, he gets a part-time job at a McDonald's knock-off, hoping it is his first step towards gaining affluence that he can use to gather forces to re-conquer his own land. Over time, he realizes the more time he spends in this world, the less he cares about being evil.
