Let me post this excerpt of a Tony Goldwyn interview by The Hollywood Reporter with regards to that Mellie/Fitz scene where he asks for Olivia, for you;

I'm just hoping that when we come back, B613 is no more, thanks to David, and the end of the season premiere shows Rowan being tortured to death by Huck, and thrown in the hole on top of Maya Pope, who has been there for at least a year, and the whole show gets a much needed reboot from the second episode.

"I also agree that it wasn't Olivia's secret to tell, but Mellie's. It's an insane violation of trust and while, sure, it's good in the long run that the truth is out it still wasn't Olivia's to tell."

If you're liking what people are saying, let's just go ahead and assume that it's because they're getting decent writing. All the actors with the exception of Scott Foley can act their butt off, the problem is if the writing stunts their character growth and has them doing the same things every episode, then we end…

I should have kept reading before responding, because you already said what I just wrote. Lol.

If you think that Shonda doesn't address race on this show, you have clearly not been watching closely enough. Every word that comes out of Rowan's mouth speaks of white privilege and his hatred of it, even as he himself upholds an inherently racist constitution. Joe Morton says the stuff that Shonda wants to say,…

I think the most amusing continuity error was the suggestion that Fitz's mother was alive in episode 203, and we discovered in 211, that she'd died.

Lol, no it isn't, Mellie isn't about that life of giving herself over for love and nothing but love.

Hi, I have to high five you for staying around and calmly going against the sea of "I love Mellie and hate Fitz" placard wavers on this site. Keep up the good fight. Whenever I'm tempted to not respond to an opinion I disagree with, I remind myself that doing nothing and saying nothing will never change the rhetoric…

How is that vindication? I could pull up opposing opinions on Kerry's acting, but they'd still just be one person's opinion.

Bellamy's sex scene with Jon Tenney was drier than a nun's vagina. Seriously, there was no commitment to that scene whatsoever, from either of the actors. People can say how icky the scene with Huck and Quinn was, but Katie and Guillermo committed to it one hundred percent and at no point did I doubt that they were…

But you like to complain as much as anybody on here, hell I complain too, but I own my shit, you just hate being challenged so you revert to telling people to piss off. Hilarious.

Shonda and her stable of writers are really bad at sticking to credible time frames. When Olivia met up with Fitz in episode 1x01, he told her that she'd known him longer than most people, but of course at that point she'd only known him for just over 2 years.

I'd be fine with Mellie dying, that's how interesting I personally find her.

Cheyenne, you and I know that Ice Cream Planet will be back watching and commenting next season. The lady (or man) doth protest too much.

Will you acknowledge that Bellamy Grant's angry face is just as off-putting? She grits her teeth every time and she emits that rather masculine growl. It's the same acting choice every time. When she was ranting about Fitz this week, there was a lot of overacting going on, so much so that she seemed like a cartoon…

Actually if you rewatch episode 104, you'll see that Sanders Black referred to Adnan Salif as a he. (The episode where Cyrus is trying to dig up dirt on OPA)

Thanks hun for the permission to post. I feel so much better now.

Me. And many others.

She's morally better than every other person on the show with the exception of David and Abby, Baby Ella, and Baby Teddy.
