As you all know, I LOVE reading! But just like I enjoy reading books, I also enjoy watching television.
I actually did not grow up with a television or internet in my home, and even to this day my mom doesn’t have one in the house. Still, I enjoyed watching television as much as any child. As a kid, I enjoyed shows like: Codename: Kids Next Door, The Proud Family, SpongeBob, That’s So Raven and Kim Possible. But I wasn’t able to watch them often unless I went to a friend or family member’s house. I didn’t really start watching TV until middle school when I got a phone where I downloaded the Netflix app. That’s when I began watching some of the shows that I still love to this day.
So, grab a snack and check out some of the shows on my watchlist. Once you watch them, let me know your thoughts in the comments. I can’t wait for you all to enjoy them!

The Office
This US adaptation, set at a paper company in Scranton, Pa., has a similar documentary style to that of the Ricky Gervais-led British original. It features the staff of Dunder-Mifflin, a staff that includes characters based on characters from the British show (and, quite possibly, people you work with in your office). There's Jim, the likable employee who's a bit of an everyman. Jim has a thing for receptionist-turned-sales rep Pam (because office romances are always a good idea). There's also Dwight, the successful co-worker who lacks social skills and common sense. And there's Ryan, who has held many jobs at the company.
Gravity Falls
Twins Dipper and Mabel Pines are sent to spend the summer with their great-uncle, Grunkle Stan, in the mysterious town of Gravity Falls. Grunkle Stan has the kids help him run The Mystery Shack, the tourist trap that he owns. The twins try to adapt to the weird surroundings but sense there is something strange about Gravity Falls and begin to unlock its secrets. When Dipper uncovers a cryptic journal that offers insight into the town's mysteries, he and Mabel use it and their enthusiastic desire to vanquish evil to battle the imminent mysteries that surround them.
