Mannion McGinley | Friday, January 27, 2023

“Gilmore Girls” has been a comfort show of mine for years. Through my many watches, I’ve processed that Rory Gilmore is no perfect character. In fact, she’s one of the farthest main characters from “perfect” that I have come to know in my 22 years of reading, watching and learning. While she and Lorelai didn’t

Stephen Viz | Thursday, January 26, 2023

Television, in particular paid programming television, has seen a cinematic revival since the turn of the twenty-first century. While once belittled as the little brother of the silver screen, the current landscape of television has changed drastically. No longer do actors smirk at the idea of taking on TV projects, but rather embrace it in

The fall of Saul: A Jimmy McGill character study

Meg Sluzas | Friday, August 26, 2022

Summer 2022 began and ended with “Better Call Saul.” The final season sucked me in with character development that only Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould can deliver. The series takes Saul Goodman, a character who mainly serves as comic relief in “Breaking Bad,” and deepens him into a man who masks his true nature to

‘Emily in Paris’: The millennial fantasy of a white woman in a foreign place

Natalie Allton | Tuesday, January 25, 2022

Season two of “Emily in Paris” dropped late last month, following a polarized response to the first season and two controversial nominations at last year’s Golden Globes. The show was widely criticized for its stereotypical portrayal of the French, cliché writing and a vapid, entitled “Mary Sue” protagonist. Despite these critiques, “Emily in Paris” remains

Justin George | Monday, September 27, 2021

New Netflix limited series “Brand New Cherry Flavor” is a harrowing story following a young filmmaker as she navigates the process of securing a deal for her first Hollywood project.

Dasha Kudriavtseva | Monday, November 2, 2020

When you see the pink-colored poster for the Italian series “Baby,” the last thing you’d imagine is a story of underage prostitution inspired by real events, but the third season of the Netflix show continues to unravel the dark, hidden lives of a pair teenagers. The main character ‘baby,’ Chiara (Benedetta Porcaroli), is dissatisfied with

The ideal Paris of ‘Emily in Paris’

Sophia Michetti | Monday, October 12, 2020

After watching Netflix’s new show “Emily in Paris,” I feel like changing my entire career path, learning French and moving to Paris. Created by Darren Star, the same man who created “Sex and the City” 20 years ago, “Emily in Paris” is the story of Emily Cooper (Lily Collins), a high-spirited employee of a Chicago

We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department and you responded with the request: “Northwestern @ Notre Dame 2014 Football Breakdown”. That game was a heartbreaking loss for a Notre Dame team that had started 6-0 before stumbling down the stretch to a 7-5 record. A bowl game win over LSU salvaged some optimism for the program’s future, but that loss to Northwestern was a shocking result that contributed to one of the more appalling stretches of Irish football in the Brian Kelly era.

A glance at the ballot suggests that this year’s candidates all appear to be human and pro-democracy. This observation may seem obvious or nonsensical, but a look back at the history of SBP elections shows that pro-democracy ideals or even personhood are not characteristic of all candidates.
