Christy Qiu, Staff Writer

With all the stress that high schoolers have, watching TV is a great way to unwind and escape their hectic lives. For some students, TV acts as a portal connecting their mundane, busy lives and the exciting, thrilling, and laughter-inducing lives of their favorite TV show characters. AHS students have a variety of preferences when it comes to TV shows. Some prefer watching international shows, such as Korean dramas, while others enjoy shows from the 90s. 

Friends is my favorite TV show because the humor and friendship the show creates is timeless. It takes regular mundane situations in life and makes them comical, which makes it really relatable for viewers.”
-Caitlin Tran, 12

Sherlock is my favorite TV show because the actors and actresses are perfect and amazing. Moffat and Gatiss did a beautiful job modernizing the mysteries while still keeping them the same as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s.”
-Armine Kasabyan, 11

Jewel in the Palace, a Korean drama, is my favorite TV show because it’s about a strong female lead overcoming obstacles to exceed expectations.”
-Yong-yi Hu, 12

“My favorite TV show is Goblin, a Korean drama. Firstly, it’s not the typical K-drama with the love triangle and the evil mother-in-law. Secondly, the main romance and bromance is on point. Thirdly, the scenery and fashion is beautiful. And, the main actor is so good-looking!”
-Dana Cho, 11

“My favorite TV show is Blacklist, because I like watching old guys being super unexpectedly cool.”
-George Kasabyan, 9
