The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has dramatically changed the course of modern-day entertainment, especially in the realm of late-night television. Fortunately, late-night hosts like Jimmy Kimmel, James Corden and Jimmy Fallon already have a large virtual following on their YouTube channels and have transformed their homes into studios.
There may be no time like the present to find new distractions and dive into the content on streaming services that we've been procrastinating pre-pandemic. British comedy-drama television show “Fleabag,” is written by and stars creative and comic powerhouse Phoebe Waller-Bridge. I recently finished watching the critically acclaimed BBC Three and Amazon show, which was only two seasons long, and was completely taken by its flawed characters and intelligent, candid humor.
With platforms like Netflix Party, Discord and Zoom enabling friends and family to get together for films and fetes, a large number of people are virtually getting together for fun movie marathons.

It’s important to stay informed and get your information from reliable sources, but we can't forget to take an occasional breather in difficult and uncertain times. In the wake of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) crisis, humanity is uniting in novel ways now.
One of the best, most missed forms of amusement during this period of quarantine is visiting art museums.
I recently found peace during this stressful spring by baking some Bon Appétit chocolate chip cookies courtesy of Chef Chris Morocco, which received rave reviews from the friends I delivered them to. The freezer is now a friend and frozen veggies, fruit, bread and Eggo have become unexpected staples in my diet. I have also watched a fair amount of food-related content during my quarantine, inevitably exhausting Netflix’s supply of “The Great British Bake Off” and marveling at the Barefoot Contessa’s hilarious cocktail hour Cosmopolitan recipe on Instagram.
As an art history major, the places where I feel most at peace are art museums. What I find most fascinating when I visit a museum are the visitors. Museum goers are all united by the common goal of learning. Everyone stares at the work on the walls and is in their own little mental bubbles, learning something new.
As I’m writing this, my quarantined brain is wired to remind me that it has been five years since Zayn Malik left One Direction, my all-time favorite band. Malik went on to pursue a successful solo career and released two albums in 2016 and 2018.
It’s been a week since my sophomore year physically ended a little abruptly and I left Rutgers University—New Brunswick to engage in some social distancing with my sister in Indiana. Terms like “social distancing,” “self-isolation” and strangely enough, “toilet paper” have overwhelmed the vernacular on social media.
The Whitney Museum of American Art launched its much-anticipated exhibition “Vida Americana: Mexican Muralists Remake American Art, 1925-1945” on Feb. 17 to the public. This exhibition explores the impact of three Mexican muralists on American Art in the early 20th century, who were collectively known as “Los Tres Grandes” (The Big Three): José Clemente Orozco, Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros.
An important aspect of life at university, outside of academic life, is looking for some some sort of employment on or off-campus. Filling out job and extracurricular applications are an exciting but nerve-wracking process. We often spend hours tweaking our resumes and curriculum vitae, editing our cover letters and perfecting our essays with friends, family or career advisors.
Happy Black History Month! In an engaging conversation with Professor Amber Wiley, a professor in the Department of Art History, we’re looking at how Black people have impacted and continue to impact the ever-evolving art world.
Australian actress Margot Robbie has played iconic roles like that of Sharon Tate in Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” and most recently DC’s Harley Quinn in “Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey,” which is now showing at Rutgers Cinema.
The first article I ever wrote for The Daily Targum was in October of 2018, during my first year at Rutgers. It was a rather lengthy and opinionated analysis of the Netflix hit “To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before,” written by a naive romantic-comedy fanatic who wore her rose-colored glasses with great pride. Since then, much has changed in terms of my worldview of romantic optimism, but there is still a lot to admire in this film.
Valentine’s Day is often commemorated by creating cute cards that express your love for your friends and family. Contrary to popular belief, Valentine’s Day is not a binary celebration of significant others or singlehood. Whether for a class or in your friend group, card swaps are a crafty way to share the love.
There has been a recent surge in viral food videos and culinary content creation online. The days of watching our favorite Food Network chefs like Ina Garten and Alton Brown and shows like “Chopped” on TV have evolved into binging Food Insider and Delish videos on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
The Zimmerli Art Museum hosted its first Art After Hours event of the decade and semester on Jan. 27, centering around an exhibition in the Dodge Wing Lower Level called “Dialogues — Ilya Kabakov and Viktor Pivovarov: Stories About Ourselves.”
Whether I’m in the mood for a viewing of the humorous yet intense “Sex Education,” or some wholesome content such as “The Great British Baking Show” or “Queer Eye,” I always end up binging my television shows.
As we head into a new semester and a whole new decade, college life will only get busier and more stressful in the months to come. Spring into the Spring 2020 semester with confidence and make sure to be on top of your academics, without neglecting your physical and mental well-being.

Harry Styles, a 25-year-old British singer-songwriter, released his second studio album, a pop-rock roller coaster that goes by the name of “Fine Line” on Dec. 13, 2019. The album peaked at #1 on the Billboard 200 Chart on Dec. 28 and is currently fourth on the chart.
