John Mulaney
John Mulaney is a hilarious guy, known, if at all, for a bit on his first album about his friend queuing up Tom Jones' "What's New Pussycat" to continually play on a jukebox. He is also the writer on "Saturday Night Live" responsible for the popular "Weekend Update" character Stefon, and he frequently tweets funny things. And his new stand up special, "John Mulaney: New in Town," premieres on Comedy Central Jan. 28 at 10 p.m. This is one funny guy you should be aware of.
Colored Jeans
It's easy to get stuck in the same routine when picking out an outfit each morning. Jeans are a staple of any college student's wardrobe, but it's time to switch up the ordinary blue or black denim you usually sport. Many clothing retailers offer jeans in a wide array of colors, from purple to green to coral. If you're really feeling adventurous, there are some pretty bright pairs available. Use these bold jeans to brighten up a cold day or stand out in a crowd.
"Impractical Jokers"
A modern version of "Punk'd" and "America's Funniest Home Videos," "Impractical Jokers" will have you laughing from start to finish. Every Thursday at 10 p.m. on TRUtv, friends Q, Sal, Joe and Murr entertain us by daring each other to do the craziest and most embarrassing things in public. You'll have to see this to believe it.
Pesto in South Dining Hall
Finally, equality of the dining halls. North has always had the unique distinction of having pesto sauce available daily at the pizza bar, while South only offered Winter Pesto Fettuccine every so often. But now, South not only has its very own Make Your Own Pizza station once every 12 days featuring the delicious sauce, it now frequently offers pesto as a sauce option at the pasta bar. Feast away, Notre Dame, feast away.
"Law and Order: SVU"
It's been on for over ten years, but it doesn't get old. This show follows the Special Victims Unit of the NYPD, the department that investigates and prosecutes sexually based offenses. For years, the show primarily followed detectives Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni) and Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay), a tight team with an amazing track record. Unfortunately, Meloni left the show last season and Hargitay asked for a lighter load. But the supporting actors, like Ice-T, along with the new faces, will continue to keep the show riveting. And in case you're nostalgic for old episodes, USA loves to run weekend SVU marathons.
