Love that Flavor
My tv binge watching guilty pleasure is none other than FLAVOR FLAV!!! Flavor of Love. VH1’s version of the Bachelor. Only way more entertaining. I’m in my 30s, so I was watching when it originally came on, but when I RE-watched it…with all this new wisdom! Oh man, it became a hilariously funny romp of ridiculous.

My Guilty Pleasure
Ever since I was a child I have been a huge fan of cartoons, starting with shows like teen titans and avatar the last air-bender. Even in high school, I continued my love of avatar the last air-bender by becoming a loyal fan of the sequel, Legend of Korra. My love of cartoons followed me into adulthood and here I sit, 23 years old and obsessed with the series posted above, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.

Sweet Life with The Suite Life
Sometimes you want to watch something funny and light with no elaborate plot lines of mysterious complexity. Sometimes you feel like watching something silly, imperfect, and cringy. If it makes you smile, why not? If it allows you to switch off for 20 minutes and have a laugh, I feel like it's a great thing to do. I never really liked the term guilty pleasure. That is just yet another phrase that makes people self-conscious about the things they enjoy. If you listen to Spice Girls, don't be afraid of people seeing it on your playlist just because it's a girl group. If Keeping Up with the Kardashians brings you joy, you binge that season. Or maybe you're obsessed with those online quizzes that tell you which kind of pizza you are? If they light up your mood, I say go for it.

Let's go on an Adventure
We all had that cartoon or show that we watched every time it was on. For some it was SpongeBob, others it was Pokémon and some it was Looney Toons. Well for me it was one of the best animated shows of all time. The greatest thing that Disney has ever produced, Phineas and Ferb. The show had it all for a young kid. It had songs and dances, stuff to learn and interest you. It was a goldmine for a young impressionable kid like I was. I would come home and watch it as long as my mother would let me, sometimes for hours on end. I remember crying watching the last episode knowing that it was the end of an amazing 8 years.

A New Generation May Be About To Get Their Hearts Broken By The Ending Of 'Dinosaurs', But That May Not Be A Bad Thing
On the surface, Dinosaurs, running from 1991 to 1994, was a fun comedy series focusing on the Sinclairs, a family of anthropomorphic Dinosaurs finding their place in the new, modern world brought about by dinosaurs becoming civilised. Scratch the surface, however, and the show is packed with social commentary and lessons that still hold up Today, all leading up to the surprisingly bleak finale, remembered as one of the saddest TV finales of all time.

redeeming my childhood
I did not grow up on cartoons like many children in my generation. My Saturday mornings were filled with my own imaginative past-times; creating worlds for my Playmobil figures to live in, planning circuses, plays, and game shows for my siblings and I to put on for our parents, and writing my pointless little stories in which my characters ran away from home and lived outlandish and extravagant lives. The only screen time I was allowed to partake in consisted of watching e-card messages on Dayspring, watching our old home movies, and maybe, if I was lucky, 20 stolen minutes of caring for my Webkinz animals while my momma-dearest was upstairs.

Barnabas Collins & The 1,225 Episode Crush
I’m secretly in love with a fictitious 1960s Soap Opera vampire. His name is Barnabas Collins. Don’t tell anybody. Many, if not most of us, have had starter marriages. They’re the unintentional mistakes we make so we can understand what love is. I wasn’t ready for marriage the first time around. I dated fast and said yes without thinking. A year later, when I was healing from my only divorce and in the middle of a great depression, I read an article about an old 1960’s soap opera called Dark Shadows. Starter marriages are fodder for soap operas. And newly divorced depressed women are the perfect fans of soap operas. I needed someone to take my mind off of things, and that someone ended up being Jonathan Frid’s deliciously scene-stealing Barnabas Collins.

True Blood, It's Fang Lickin' Good. Top Story - February 2021.
Does it have vampires? I’m in. I don’t know what it is about vampires but I have been obsessed from a young age. I’m not talking pre-teen young when Twilight came out (which as far as vampire stories go, does not rank high for me), I’m talking 6 years old when I still had baby teeth but was dreaming about having fangs. No, I’m serious. I literally dreamed about meeting vampires and begging them to turn me into a vampire too. Which they never agreed too… Even in my dreams I can’t be the dream version of myself!

My Guilty Pleasure Is...
Love is Blind. I swear, it is the worst show ever. It had the worst concept too. Blind dates through a wall? Falling in love with a voice? A personality? Come on! Please. But boy, the rational part of my brain died that whole month it aired as I impatiently waited for each episode to come out and would binge watch it then come storming into the bedroom wanting to talk about all this reality show drama with my husband who could honestly careless. So I inherently recruited my sister who did enjoy this with me, and we could celebrity gossip at will.

Bite me, not that hard!
As much as I love a good show, I'd say I don't laze around watching TV all day. However, after dinner, a Friday night, or a rainy, it's these moments that entrap me into watching something advertised on Netflix or Stan. We had just finished watching some German show on Netflix when my boyfriend mentioned it. I couldn't believe it. He is the only person I know who is deeply passionate about films, scriptwriting, play, cinematography, etc... To hear him utter the words "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" sent me laughing and snorting. Looking at the trailer even confirmed my expectations. Firstly, from the terrible effects of the vampires and werewolves; to the cliché 90s high school girl drama. I knew it would only last one episode. Amazingly, after a couple of seasons in, and we both found ourselves laughing heartedly at the stupid jokes, and I was genuinely interested in Buffy's backstory. Did a mention a young David Boreanaz??!!
