Collegian Community’s Comfort Shows

Greg Shannon, Staff

Almost everyone likes watching TV. What’s not to love about it? There is an abundance of different genres and unique shows to watch. When it comes to television everyone has that one show they can just sit back and watch for hours on end and on repeat. Whether that be an animated series, sitcom or even reality TV, there is something out there for everybody. With that being said, here are the Collegian community’s favorite Comfort Shows.

Greg Shannon: “The Midnight Gospel”

“There are many shows that I could highlight as my comfort shows. However, one show that I don’t think gets enough of a spotlight is “The Midnight Gospel.” “The Midnight Gospel” is a podcast style adult animated show where the main character goes to different universes to interview people. This is what honestly makes the show fun. The subject matter is so mature and so unique that you honestly can learn a lot from each episode. Whether it is the legalization of some drugs, the meaning of love, finding your purpose, or even just how to get over losing someone close to you. This show will have something that will connect with you.”

Nolen Kelly, Editor: “Letterkenny”

“‘Letterkenny’ features groups of violent Canadian farmers, drug addicted goths, and eloquently dimwitted hockey players but despite how dark that may sound it is actually quite delightful. In between the fights and extreme expletives are trucks and boat loads of great soundtracks, simple and adorkable characters, wildly impressive wordplay and situational dialogue, and the charm of a whole country that few shows can even come close to imitating or capturing. Any day that I am overwhelmed or not in a good headspace I look to our northern neighbors for the escape I need from the chaos, even if it is just for 20 minutes. Some of my favorite memories of a particular day that just felt good involved “Letterkenny” in some way and the show even has an impact on the way I write and do my work. “Letterkenny” will always have a spot in my mind and my being.”

Aidan Tyksinski: “Community”

“My favorite show is Community because I think it shows friendship in a way we don’t think about. I love how each character is so different, but they stick with each other through every crazy adventure. The dynamics between all the characters always make me laugh no matter what mood I’m in.”

Abby Louese: “New Girl and Gilmore Girls”

“Those two are my favorites because I feel like while I’m watching them I can escape the realities of my own life.The way they were both produced, the writing and the acting really makes me feel as though I am part of their “world” and I just feel very invested in the character’s lives. ‘Gilmore Girls’ in particular just has a place in my heart as it was one of my favorite shows in high school and really motivated me to study. If you look at the “study” community, “Gilmore Girls” is brought up or referenced a lot and is just a really important part of pop culture for that community. I also love ‘New Girl’ for many of the same reasons I first mentioned. It has become even more relevant in my life though as my current living situation is pretty similar to the show except gender swap. My roommates and I have a whole group chat called “new guy” because it’s 3 girls and 1 guy.”

Brandin Runyon: “Sabrina The Witch”

“The reason why I chose ‘Sabrina’ is because she never failed to bring a smile to my face. I really wanted to be like her in terms of life choices. Being able to have a kind loving family and friends around her was amazing. Plus being able to use magic to make whatever situation better was extremely cool. Even when she wasn’t having the best day, her magic made things better. Though she made some mistakes along the way, she always found a way to fix them with her magic. I always wanted to just wave a finger and fix everything. Also I always had a crush on Harvey.”

Jake Eiseman, Editor-in-Chief: “How I Met Your Mother”

“HIMYM is one of those shows that plans it’s jokes seasons in advance and rewards you for sticking with it and watching it over and over again. Every time I watch I find subtle foreshadowing or callbacks that make you appreciate the comedy and story much more. I know most people don’t like the ending, but the characters and jokes throughout really make it a comforting binge the whole way through.”

Jeriann Tripodi, Editor: “Spongebob Squarepants”

“I certainly have a few shows that I enjoy rewatching over and over again even though I have seen every episode of every season. I’m not ashamed to say that my biggest comfort show is Spongebob Squarepants, but only seasons one through three. I feel like Spongebob can suit any mood. When I’m happy, I watch Spongebob. When I’m sad, I watch Spongebob. When I’m annoyed, I watch Spongebob (and relate to Squidward a little extra). I believe “Spongebob” is a timeless classic and can bring joy in your life at any age. I also love how “Spongebob” references are relevant to everyday life, even the daily life of a college student.”

Review: “Hawkeye” Season One

Arts & Entertainment

Greg Shannon, Staff

“Hawkeye” is Marvel’s latest foray into serial streaming entertainmentBeing the fourth TV installment for the franchise, it’s exciting to see how Marvel handles a series with this unique kind of superhero. Previously, we dealt with the wacky time gods in “Loki,” an existential crisis in “WandaVision” and the two half mechanical dudebros of America in “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.” Unlike these series with super-powered main characters, “Hawkeye” features a character with only a bow and arrow as his powers. This setup makes for an interesting series for the character. With all that being said, here are my thoughts on season one of the latest Marvel series “Hawkeye.”

Despite the show being titled “Hawkeye,” Clint Barton, played by Jeremy Renner (“The Hurt Locker,” “Wand River,”) does not feel like the main character of this show. That role goes to Kate Bishop, played by Hailee Steinfeld (“Pitch Perfect 3,” “Bumblebee,”) since this show serves more as an origin story for her. While it’s extremely funny that Hawkeye has the most Hawkeye things happen to him, they do a really good job with making him the secondary protagonist in this show.. Out of all of these shows, I think Hawkeye handles the double-protagonist trope the best. The series did a good job balancing their screen time and building their relationship, with Barton’s cold and lone wolf personality worked well with the somewhat witty personality of Bishop. Seeing the chemistry between them slowly build only made the ending of the show more satisfying.

Then there’s the pacing of the show. The show’s first two episodes reintroduce the world and set the characters that we have for the show. Then once episode three pops up, everything is kicked up a notch. The fight scenes, the dialogue moments and even the surprise guest characters make the next four episodes extremely fun to watch. One of the best parts of the season was the abundance of trick arrows that they were able to come up with and use against their enemies as well, from the somewhat simple ones used in episode three, the exploding arrows, to the more crazy ones in episode six, like a magnet arrow strong enough to take guns out of people’s hands. It felt like the creators had a bunch of fun with this show and these scenes show just how creative they were allowed to be.

If I had to pick anything that I didn’t like as much, it would be that, at times, the main antagonists were a bit annoying. While they had some pretty funny moments and some pretty cool members, there were only so many times I could hear a Russian man say “bro” before it started to get annoying. The henchmen were fun and gave us pretty good comedic moments, but sadly there were just some times where it felt like it was just a bit too much.

Honestly, it was surprising how good the show turned out to be. When I saw the first two episodes I was pretty critical of them. I saw that the show had potential, but I didn’t think I would surpass “Falcon and the Winter Soldier.” However, this show turned out to be more than what I originally thought it was going to be. The simplicity of this series is really what gave it its signature charm. It took what makes Hawkeye likable and amped it up. Plus, the few character surprises that were added to the show get me even more excited to see where Marvel goes in the future. All in all, I would say this show is a solid 7.5/10 and I would recommend that you give it a watch.

Nolen’s Top 5 Movies of 2021

Arts & Entertainment

Nolen Kelly, Editor

“Damn, that kind of sucked,” muttered everyone in unison on Jan. 1, 2022. Another year has come and gone, and with it went all things 2021, ranging from super terrible to mildly okay. We lost Omar (Micheal K. Williams) and Lucille Bluth (Jessica Walter), Sia released “Music” and I created a Letterboxd account, a terrible moment in time. Despite all of that, the world was treated to some surprisingly great movies this year, and here is my list of my five favorites. A few honorable mentions include “Barb & Star Go to Vista Del Mar,” “Pig,” “The Harder They Fall,” “Summer of Soul,” “Luca,” “The Suicide Squad” and “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.”

#5: “Dune”

“Dune” was released on HBO Max on Oct. 21, 2021. On that day, I was sick with the flu. With low energy levels and no desire to leave my house, I settled in and gave it a shot. The dork part of my brain that loves movies had a surge of “Hell yeah” while watching this and my energy rose to normal amounts, allowing me to have a cool experience taking in Denis Villeneuve’s impressive and glorious interpretation of “Dune.” Gargantuan world pieces, interesting enough space politics, interesting characters and a simple but great story to follow all make this a nifty watch that I recommend for anyone looking to watch “Star Wars” if the politics were actually good. Despite only having a few scenes of action, this movie is more of a spectacle to behold than another space war opera, and for that, it was an excellent movie that I will be rewatching again and again.

#4: “Spider-Man: No Way Home”

Honestly, how could I not put this movie on the list? I’ve been a lifelong fan of the wall crawler’s comics — I grew up watching “Spider-Man 2,” Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man was a super cool skater dude I wanted to hang out with at 12 years old, Tom Holland’s “Home” trilogy is my favorite of all of the Marvel movies, and “Into the Spider-Verse” is an achievement in every sense of animation and storytelling. You get it, I like the spider. Going into this movie I expected to have a satisfying ending to Tom’s trilogy, but I came out feeling like a six-year-old who rediscovered Spider-Man. It was an absolute blast of a time and I have no shame whatsoever admitting I cried three times in the nearly three hour runtime of the movie. I prefer my films to be more “film-y” and have something to say, but dammit, I would be a cold monster to exclude this phenomenal time of a movie from my list. Tears were shed, guffaws were had and vocal cords were shredded from the amount of pure joy I had from one sitting of “Spider-Man: No Way Home.”

#3 “Annette”

I still have absolutely no idea what this movie is. Is it a musical? Is it an Adam Driver standup special? Is it a ghost story? Is it a “Child’s Play” sequel? I don’t know, but I’ll take two, please. Initially topping my list of “5 Good and 5 Bad movies of Summer 2021” on the good side, it was August when I first watched this movie; and to this day, there is so much I find myself thinking about frequently. “So May We Start” is the song of the century thanks to the Sparks brothers, Driver and Cotillard give some severely overlooked and incredible performances of the whole year, and Simon Helberg has been in my nightmares ever since. Although they sing and act really well, this film may not be for everyone, as it feels more like an angry arthouse response to “Singin’ in the Rain” and as if the audiences of the movie are talking directly to you. Bizarre, lovely, strange, weird, delightful and some other word for ‘good.’ Again, I don’t know what this movie is, but I really liked it.

#2: “The Power of the Dog”

Have you ever watched a movie that just goes on and on and by the end you catch yourself staring blankly into the abyss thinking about what it was you just watched? Me neither. Writer/director Jane Campion’s newest slowburn comes in the form of a Western starring real-life cowboy Benedict Cumberbatch. Great googly moogly Benny, you scary man. Delivering one of his sharpest and most uncomfortable performances of his whole career, Cumberbatch makes the skin crawl just by existing. Despite his rough ridges, the movie is nicely balanced out by the delicacy of every other character. Of the many characters that soften the punches from the Cumberbatch cowboy, the most important is Kirsten Dunst’s onscreen son Peter Gordon, played by Kodi Smit-McPhee. A broken boy in a cowboy’s paradise allows Peter to bring one nightmare of a ranch experience into something with a little more cleanliness than manliness. Too many words, don’t care version: Benedict and Kodi worked incredibly together and I highly recommend this movie if you want to see what a Western looks like made by a New Zealander — terrifying. Speaking of terrifying:

#1: “Spencer”

In 2019 there was “Uncut Gems,” in 2020 there was “I’m Thinking of Ending Things,” and in 2021 along came “Spencer” to add to my yearly list of “Movies that Gave me Anxiety.” “Spencer” is not the same level of anxiety-inducing as the previous two, but this movie was hard to watch. Kristen Stewart nails it, kills it and knocks it out of the park as Princess Diana. This movie is just so sad but I’m just so happy watching it. It’s a backwards feeling but I smile just thinking about how perfect her performance was. The tension is high, no one is happy at all, the outfits and costumes are excessive, Kristen Stewart is still the best, and the musical score is neverending. This movie is correct. Everything about it is just right and works so incredibly well that it feels like the most “movie” a biopic movie can be. Other biopics always feel like they are missing something and it is never super clear what it is, but they still work for whatever they are. “Spencer” works 100 percent even though it is not the most 100 percent accurate story. To me, “Spencer” is a perfect five out of five movie and I hope whoever needs to read this, give it a watch.

And that’s my list. What do you think? Do you agree or disagree? Should I have liked one of your favorites more? It doesn’t really matter, this is my list and it is what I like. 2021 had some good watches, but the fingers are crossed that 2022 brings some more surprises and contemporary classics.

Movie Season; Christmas Edition

Arts & Entertainment

Nolen Kelly, Editor

Merry mid-December everyone! I’ve been looking forward to putting this article together for a while now because of how much fun the Halloween special was, and so I have officially dubbed this fun little semi-regular piece as “Movie Season.” With the jolly red North Pole guy coming down your chimney soon, it is currently the second best time of the year, right after my birthday, and along with the endless amounts of good feelings and gorgeous cosmetic changes the country goes through to accommodate the holiday season, it is time to break out the hot cocoa, grab the softest blanket in your vicinity and let the fire crackle to a dark room as we take a look at some of our Christmas movie favorites.

Nolen’s favorite: “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation”

I grew up watching a lot of Chevy Chase, from “Saturday Night Live” to “Spies Like Us” and my favorite, “The Three Amigos.” When twelve-year old me discovered the “Vacation” movies, I didn’t like them very much. But, I did like “Christmas Vacation” and every year since then, I have watched it. Each time, something new sticks out to me and makes the experience so much better. Young Nolen loved the Christmas feeling and silliness of Chevy’s facial expressions, teen Nolen loved the cursing, the mania and the silliness of Chevy’s facial expressions and adult Nolen recently rewatched and loves everything Chevy does, especially his silly facial expressions. Am I making myself clear why I love this movie? “Christmas Vacation” is top to bottom a near-spotless movie. As a Christmas movie and a movie in general, this whole thing is amazing. While others use Christmas as just an event to get to, “Christmas Vacation” makes use of the entire season as each day brings a new wave of domestic destruction and anarchy. I can honestly quote this movie from start to finish and it never gets boring. That’s pretty much it. I just really love this movie and I yield my time, your honor.

Now that I have spoken my piece, it’s time to shift over to see what the people have chosen to submit as their favorites. If you’d like to see your submissions in future columns, follow me on Instagram @nolenkelly where I put out polls to my story.

Jeriann Tripodi: “Elf”

“During the holidays, I enjoy watching ‘Elf.’ I watch this film every season. No matter how many times I’ve seen it, the jokes never get old and it always makes me feel festive.”

Kevin Wilus: “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation”

“I love how much chaos is caused throughout the movie. Between hanging up lights to make their house the brightest in the town and causing a power outage, to going ludicrous speed down a snow hill, it’s a classic Christmas movie. If you haven’t seen it you’re missing out and must watch it as soon as possible.”

Aidan Degnan: “It’s a Wonderful Life”

“‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ is my favorite. It’s a Christmas movie that gets the spirit of the season right without putting Santa in it or making it about presents under a tree. The message of the story goes beyond Christmas and is about why life itself is worth living.”

Maddy Kelly: “Elf”

“It’s different from a lot of classic Christmas movies. It’s one that everyone can enjoy. It has all the magical Christmas elements with some adult humor.”

Aidan Tysinski: “A Christmas Story”

“It reminds me of how I was as a kid during Christmas. Even though the movie takes place during the 1940s, there is something universal about wanting that one toy every year for Christmas. It is also a great movie because of the many, many quotable lines.”

Dylan Villenueva: “Elf”

“My favorite Christmas movie is ‘Elf’ because it’s a timeless, holiday comedy. I also watched it as a tradition every year growing up! It brings back great memories.”

Other People’s Favorites:

People seem to like “Elf,”and I know this because I wrote the word “Elf” so many times and I’m tired of it. Moving on, there are the many great submissions I received on my Instagram. Commentary Editor Alina Snopkowski is a big fan of the Russian comedy “Ёлки 2”, a complicated tale of just watch it and have a good time, and she also enjoys “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” similarly to Ryan Donaghy, who also points and laughs at the silly little bald boy. The chiseled specimen known as Colin McPoyle is a man’s man who prefers his cinema geared a bit more towards the abstract film category, with “Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever.” James LeVan comes in with “Fatman” with Mel Gibson. Incredible film. Oh, and hey, look at this guy, Sean Dembeck over here, he finds himself thinking this little movie you may know called “Elf” is “pretty good” and I agree. Gregory Cornelius Shannon sips the finest of wines while watching “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” and Ray Thompson practices the meditative art of theft inspired by his favorite movie “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” Grace Tenneson may have enjoyed “Home Alone” but Tori Sciarra prefers the sequel “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.” To be fair, the best one is actually “Home Alone 4” and I couldn’t tell you what happened in it aside from French Stewart getting hit in the genitals. I finally saved the best for last with a highly debatable pick for a ‘Christmas’ movie as Tyler Rojas, wise guy that he is, chose “Die Hard.” Personally, it depends on the year if I see it as a Christmas movie or not, and it turns out it is a ‘Bones Year’ and I currently deem “Die Hard” a Christmas movie.

Thank you again to everyone who submitted an answer for this week. This article is always fun to put together and I love seeing everyone else’s favorites. I hope everyone has a merry Christmas, if you celebrate it, and a happy New Year, if you believe in time, and I look forward to coming back during the next Movie Season.
