The 100 (RATED 14+)

The television series “The 100” is set in a post-apocalyptic world and revolves around a group of 100 prisoners who are sent to Earth to determine if it is still habitable. The Earth had been destroyed by a malfunctioning artificial intelligence, which resulted in the entire planet being devastated. The prisoners are from a surviving civilization that resides on a space craft called the Ark. However, the Ark is running out of oxygen, leaving the prisoners as the only option to explore Earth for potential survival. Upon their arrival, they discover that they are not alone. Another group of humans, known as the Grounders, have also managed to survive. The Grounders have been affected by radiation, which has caused mutations in their bodies and given them a frightening appearance. They use this to their advantage in hunting and intimidating other survivors. As the 100 attempt to escape the Grounders and find a safe haven in the mountains, they encounter a common enemy known as Mount Weather. The people of Mount Weather live underground to avoid radiation and cannot be exposed to the surface. However, they are eventually defeated in an attack. This series offers a captivating and groundbreaking storyline.

 

Young Sheldon (RATED TV-14)

The television series “Young Sheldon” revolves around a highly intelligent young boy named Sheldon, who is a younger version of the character from “The Big Bang Theory.” Set in the town of Medford, Texas, Sheldon lives with his brother Georgie, sister Missy, and his parents Mary and George. While Sheldon himself is not particularly fond of religious beliefs, the rest of his family is Christian. Each episode presents a new story filled with drama and challenges, making it an entertaining show to watch during this spring break.

Personal Review

I’ve watched all of these shows and they are all very captivating and entertaining. My top pick based upon my personal opinion would be “Reacher” with its intriguing mystery throughout all the seasons. I highly suggest this show, even though “Stranger Things” is releasing a new season five this year! Get ready to start watching now so you can follow along. Not to mention “Resident Alien” is a close second. I’m still watching this particular show and it’s been great so far. Unfortunately, spring break is only long enough to watch one of these, so choose wisely!
