Netflix's Blood Sisters series and the importance of most characters.
Blood Sisters is a recent Netflix series addition from Nollywood. A spoiler warning and sensitive topics (including domestic violence, drugs etc.) warning are in effect! The series centers on various sensitive topics such as domestic violence, culture, overprotection and more issues necessary to be aware of. It follows the lives of Sarah (Ini Dima-Okojie) and Kemi (Nancy Isime) before and after the death of Sarah's abusive fiancé, Kola (Deyemi Okanlawon). Kola is the CEO of Ademola Pharmaceuticals, the family company he runs after the death of the head. We get a glimpse of his power financially and socially as he draws during a business pitch meeting. He uses a helicopter to his wedding and the lyrics of the soundtrack state " I got the drip and they know it". Kola's power is also shown in his relationship. His speaking carries a harsh tone as he coerces Sarah to change her dress to one he prefers disregarding her appreciation for the dress she wore. His power is also shown as he signalled his bodyguard, Uncle B (Ramsey Nouah) to rough up Kenny (Ibrahim Suleiman), the man who tried to protect Sarah, stop the wedding and portray his love. Kola embraces his power in all forms and is depicted to be savvy as he led and overpowered Blade(Maurice Sam), the hitman sent to kill him. During a life-ending strangle after Sarah tried to cancel the wedding, Kemi's action of shooting Kola after an attempt to stop him, killed him.

Top-tier moments from Scandal
Olivia Pope (known as "Liv", "Fixer", "Handler")-I like this scene of her defending Marcus Walker at the police station. It showed her power, talent, and skill in a simple way. It also gained the respect of Marcus while reminding me how good she is at her job. There are moments Olivia falters, lets people down, or is confused about what to do but she never fails to assert her power, be resourceful and helpful. She's had times like this as she runs her own crisis management firm, Olivia Pope & Associates (O.P.A) but this was a great moment.

Fitz and Mellie's relationship could have worked.
I like numerous things about Scandal, however, this show made us encourage an affair while depicting the wife to be some putrid depression-inducing monster. To Olivia choosing someone other than Fitz would seem to be a betrayal as she said and I sort of understand this because:

Is Willy Wonka a villain?
After being told about the mysterious Willy Wonka and introduced to him, we get his first comeback of many to Veruca(played by Julia Winter). This sets the tone of his attitude to everyone especially the children, with the exception of Charlie (played by Freddie Highmore), for the remainder of the movie. This was the beginning of many red flags that were acknowledged as odd but not dangerous.
