Solid First Seasons
So occasionally we’ve talked about shows that just started off so strong and up a muddled mess. Unfortunately this is an all too common phenomenon, particularly in network shows. It boils down to studios wanting more money so they keep their successful shows on long enough to ruin them. So we are going to go through some of the shows that had incredible, groundbreaking first seasons. Perhaps they even had a good first few seasons, but eventually they ended up incomplete and messy.

As the wintery cold sets in we are not just watching Christmas movies but we are also watching some winter time musicals. We should know that I am a theatre kid in my heart so we can’t get through the holiday season without me watching some of my favorite musicals. Now as I was trying to explain to my husband earlier each genre of music has seasons. My summer musicals would be like South Pacific, or Shrek. Whereas Fall would be Les Mis and Sweeney Todd. Each musical score has a lot of feelings attached to it and the musicals on this list have sweet, cozy, wintery vibes attached to them which makes them perfect for the end of the year. So now that we have established feelings and vibes, let's go through some of the best musicals for winter.

Marielle SabbagPublished 6 months ago in GeeksVillainess Review: Duma (Supernatural)
Happy Halloween all! I had been wanting to write this review for the longest time, and this day is a perfect time to do so. The fact that it's Halloween is one reason, but another involves the actress pictured above: Erica Cerra. I've been a fan of Erica Cerra since Eureka, where she spent five seasons as the tough-as-nails Jo Lupo. Other than also playing the dual role of Becca and A.L.I.E. on The 100, Cerra's acting career includes an immense number of villainous roles, and while they have all been amazing, her best and most memorable evil role came during a two season span on Supernatural.

Gladys W. MuturiPublished 6 months ago in GeeksVillainess Review: Rachel Jordan (Hiding from My Husband)
As I was anxiously awaiting the start of this current NFL season (and the current NHL season, as well), I was enjoying the bounty that Lifetime was giving us during this late summer season. Part of the goodness included this movie, Hiding from My Husband (originally titled, Rear View Mirror), and the beginning lived up to the new title, as it sees Jessica Howard frantically packing her things as she's preparing to take her son, Noah, and escape her house that she shared with husband Peter Howard, who was quickly established as being abusive and very controlling.
