What The 'Arrow' Midseason Finale Death Could Mean For Olicity Fans
This post contains spoilers for Arrow Season 5. On December 7th, Arrow lost a character that viewers weren't all that invested in.

5 Times Piper Halliwell From 'Charmed' Delivered The Feels
I'm a HUGE fan of Charmed and have watched most of the episodes at least five times. My favorites I've watched a few more. Piper Halliwell is one of my favorite sisters on the show. The writers put her through hell, toying with this character's heart over eight seasons. And Holly Marie Combs rose to every occasion, wringing every drop of emotion out of each scene.

'The Flash': Has Tom Felton Been Typecast As An Evil Character?
Every Harry Potter fan knows who Tom Felton is. As Draco Malfoy, he was the thorn in the side of The Boy Who Lived. Deliciously cunning, he swore allegiance to the darkest of characters, Voldemort. That was his first major role as a less than friendly character. He followed that role with one in the 2011 film, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, as yet another character of questionable moral fiber.
