I feel like Quinn has to die. She has to, right? How can she not?

I'm not at "unwatchable" yet, but one of my fears from earlier in this season is becoming dangerously close to fruition. Grey's went totally off track, and I missed three complete seasons before coming back to it two years ago. Scandal is coming close to losing a lot of viewers who won't return, even if Shonda rights…

Watched that episode of Friends on Nick at Nite yesterday, as well!

Huck's delivery has gotten over the top lately. They had such good thing going with him, and now it's almost too dramatic.

I don't disagree that their relationship has flaws, the timing often doesn't make sense, typically whether he was told about what he was doing or not wouldn't matter, etc. But I think various comments over the last few weeks make it seem like it was an order that Fitz was given for some reason beyond what he might…

Do we think they actually slept together? My reaction was "those photos are staged," but someone I spoke with this morning thinks he (James) actually went through with it.

I did for the first time on Fitz in New Hampshire. I liked it, too, a lot better than some of the other effects they use.

I was hoping it would lead to Harrison finally having a plot, but alas, he's back to where he started. Which is with nothing.

Someone earlier mentioned that at least this Olivia and Fitz aren't arguing about how much they hate each other. They're both resigned to what they see as being their fates - apart. I can't help but love them. I know I might be in the minority here at TV Club, but I do. Don't forget that Olivia wasn't going to go to…

I agree. He never really wanted it until Olivia told him he should.

I said it last week, and I'll lead with it again: Bellamy Young = stunning. I've never hated Mellie, and have always wondered what made her tick. The scenes with her laying with Big Jerry and then being coerced to lay with Fitz, her face, her body language…made my stomach hurt.
Quinn and Charlie also pained me, but not…

Jenna's reaching her low point, obviously. Matty's response to her got an audible, "Oh shit," from my husband. It hurt, but she deserved it. Sadie's comment to her mother about how she tried to get what she needed was heartbreaking. I know it's the b story here, but I feel like we're seeing the rise of Sadie and the…

The storyline had a lot of potential last year. Her coming into her own, into her new name. Now it's comical. I think there will be a gladiator death this season. She's a good candidate; not because Shonda is giving her nothing to work with (though that's true) but because she's putting herself in danger, whether she…

I noticed this as well. She was standing up and trying to steady herself before Fitz called last week, and then this week she was topping off a bottle before she called her father.

I agree with all of the above. And it's a shame, because the actress who plays Quinn seems lovely. But her story, and the way it was acted last night, is just bad. Not worth the screen time.

Good point. I thought that was in interesting inclusion on Team Shonda's part. Conspiracy theorists, much?

It seems like they are leading up to settling Remington by the end of the first half, and I agree, I hope it's "over" by that point, as well. The pace of this show is part of the reason I love it.

Mellie is winning every single scene this season, and looking absolutely stunning while doing so.

I'm sad for Quinn and Harrison. There are just too many Gladiators at this point, and too much other story to tell, for them to serve any real purpose.

One item I forgot to mention: isn't it pretty clear that Fitz messed up during Operation Remington and steps were taken to cover it up? That might be generalizing it a little bit, but it seems fairly obvious to me. Maybe that's the point.
