Villainess Review: Adele Bensimon (Bull)
CBS' hit series, Bull, recently celebrated 100 episodes and later ended its fifth season, with a sixth on the way. It's an amazing show; I binge-watched a few years ago and now I watch live on Monday nights. It was on September 20, 2016 that this show began its run with the episode, "The Necklace."

A Look at the Atlanta Braves' Division Title Streak
One of the most memorable streaks in sports history (especially in my lifetime) was the Atlanta Braves' 14 straight division championships, finishing first from 1991 until 2005. Since then, the Braves' postseasons have been scarce, but once upon a time, they were one of the constants throughout the 1990s. Here's an at-a-glance look at the Braves' streak.

On the Prowl
Grad Night, 2001 It was a big night for Andrea Rosen and her best friend, CeeCee Langdon, as they had just received their cap and gowns--they were high school graduates. The girls had left a graduation party and went off on their own in a wooded area, while also talking about the future and their plans. In addition, Andrea and CeeCee expressed how much their friendship meant to each other, but during this point, they were startled by rustling noises, which they dismissed as nothing--until they heard something sinister and animalistic.

Reviewing a Hat Trick of Villainesses from "Sorority Sister Killer"
Sorority Sister Killer completed Lifetime's back-to-back days of sorority-themed thrillers, following Secrets of Sorority Row. In this film, the focus is on best friends Lacey Montgomery and Tara George, who are pledging to the Kappa Tau Pi sorority, which has Courtney McCray as president. After being welcomed by Courtney, younger sister Ella, and their mother (as well as the sorority's den mother), Lana, the girls start their pledging, which happens to include a hazing ritual that consisted of excessive drinking and bullying one of the pledges, Tiffany, by hurling fat-shaming comments at her and forcing her to take off her dress. This sets off Lacey, who leaves the house, but Tara remains, causing friction between the two friends.

Villainess Review: Betsy Gray (Chronicle Mysteries)
A Hallmark Movies and Mysteries film series I have immensely enjoyed is Chronicle Mysteries, which brought Allison Sweeney back into the fold. Sweeney, best known for playing scheming Sami Brady on Days of our Lives, portrayed Hannah Swensen on the Murder, She Baked film series, but this series casts Sweeney as podcaster Alex McPherson, and the second film of the series, The Wrong Man, featured Alex getting involved in investigating a murder that occurred three years prior to the events.

Villainess Review: Rachel Turner (Matchmaker Mysteries)
I am a huge fan of Hallmark Movies & Mysteries' many film series, and I love how these new series just keep popping up one by one. One of the recent film series is Matchmaker Mysteries, which stars Danica McKellar as famed matchmaker Angie Dove, and the first installment, A Killer Engagement, debuted on October 6, 2019.

Villainess Review: Stacey (Secrets on Sorority Row)
The first of back-to-back days of sorority-based thrillers on Lifetime gave us Secrets on Sorority Row, which began with a flashback to 1997, when Michelle and Kelly were pledging to the Epsilon Theta sorority, which was led by Stacey. The hazing ritual centered on excessive drinking, and after Michelle and Kelly were accepted, the latter ended up falling down a flight of stairs and to her death. Fast forward over 20 years, Michelle--a psychology professor--is dealing with her teenaged daughter, Quinn, pledging to the same sorority, and also dealing with threatening letters from someone referencing Kelly's death.

The Vast Decline of the Golden Knights' Fanbase
On Thursday, the Vegas Golden Knights lost the West Division and the Presidents' Trophy when the Colorado Avalanche won 5-1 over the Los Angeles Kings. As an Avalanche fan since the team's final two years as the Quebec Nordiques, I was in an immensely celebratory mood over the Avalanche finishing the season with the league's best record, and I went on YouTube to watch the highlights. As I scrolled through the comments, I found a couple from fans of the Golden Knights saying that the Avalanche "didn't deserve" to win the Presidents' Trophy, and mocking the Avalanche for "letting 15 skaters dominate them," a reference to Monday's head-to-head game, which the Avalanche won, 2-1. Another comment actually blamed Robin Lehner, the backup to Marc-Andre Fleury, for Monday's loss, stating that he "let in a pair of softies." Oh boy.

Villainess Review: Autumn Delaney (Good Witch)
With the seventh season of Good Witch closing in, I decided to finally resume binge-watching the series after trailing off while watching Season Five. Very recently, I finished watching Season Five and moved to the most recent of the Good Witch specials that usually air between seasons, the aptly titled, "Curse from a Rose."

Villainess Review: Anna Mill (Law & Order: SVU)
"Caretaker," a twentieth season episode of Law & Order: SVU, began with a grisly scene, as Julian Mill and his daughter Rachel were both found stabbed to death. Also stabbed was Charlie Mill, the younger offspring, who clung to life before fatally succumbing to his injuries. Anna Mill, Julian's wife and the mother of Rachel and Charlie, was interviewed by Olivia Benson and Amanda Rollins about the deaths, with Anna reacting with shock and horror over the loss of her husband and children. Regarding suspects, the family's nanny, Delores Alverez, was one, though Anna spoke fondly of Delores when asked about her. However, Anna later changed her tune and voiced her regret over hiring Delores, as Anna not only believed that Delores and Julian were having an affair, she also believed that Delores could be the killer.

Villainess Review: Kristin (Brutal Bridesmaids)
Lifetime Movie Network gave us this film, Brutal Bridesmaids, in February 2021, which made me absolutely giddy because the title guarantees that a villainess will appear. But I'm getting ahead of myself, let's set the stage.

North Division Semifinal Series Are Officially Set
The North Division will be the last of the four divisions to have all of its teams play the full 56 games, but they join the East and Central in officially locking in their Division Semifinal series. The Winnipeg Jets needed one point to clinch 3rd place in the North, and their 5-0 win over the Vancouver Canucks did just that, locking in third place and cementing the Montréal Canadiens in fourth. The Jets will face off against the Edmonton Oilers in the North Division Semifinals, while the other semifinal series will feature the Toronto Maple Leafs against the aforementioned Canadiens. With this divisional format back for the first time since the 1992-93 season (for this season only), it will assure us that a Canadian team will advance to the third round of the playoffs for the first time since 2018.
