She didn't care about Jerry anyway, I wish they'd stop pretending she loved those kids. When was the last time we saw Baby whatshisname or was he written out of the script?

And James was the only cast member not to give one of those rat-a-tat Shakespearean gagologues that everyone recites to one another. I'm surprised Scandal isn't written in iambic pentameter. Clearly Cyrus thinks he's King Lear in every scene, even when he's making copies at the Xerox machine.

And - why did they need Billions of dollars to put Rowan in jail? Wouldn't a 100,000 from Olivia's savings account have been enough, theft is theft.

They should have pushed the vending machine on him when he went to get his afternoon Snicker's bar in the break room. Scandal, give me a break.

I still haven't forgiven them for what they did to Sue.

Exactly, great point about trying to stop them. Especially in this post 9/11 age - I know in NY if someone even farts too loud on public transportation everyone is hyperaware. How is a crazy nut like Huck going to get past security?

no lololol, thanks for the reminder!

Love your questions, here's another - when will they get a lock on the door at OPA? I've seen Taco Bells with greater security.

I appreciate this, but Scandal is also about the fantasy of a black woman who never loses, who is indomitable and who doesn't have to deal with the barriers of racism or sexism because she is too beautiful and power. It's like Wonder Woman meets All the Presidents Men. That's why for me as a black person it can be

So we end up with My Little Pony meets Zero Dark Thirty.

Not in the operating room, but Bea Arthur as Maude got an abortion in the early 70's.

Yes, if I were you Annie, don't start with current episodes, go to Netflix and watch the earlier seasons. You'll hate the characters if you start now

Can we stop all pretending that Mellie and Fitz gave a damn about their kids? I really can't stand these grieving scenes where Mellie throws Lizzie out for "exploiting" the death of their son, even though Mellie faked a miscarriage in the first season, if I recall correctly, to get voters sympathy, and the kids were

I was waiting for the scene where Mellie reminded FItz that it was his father who raped her, such a powerful dramatic moment.

I absolutely agree, and thank you for sharing your experience and for your service. It's annoying because the actress could act, and I waited of her to get her own "Shandalogue" about what it meant for her family that she was in the military, how she wasn't going to throw it away, maybe even cussing the VP out at

That's actually Kerry Washington having flashbacks to when the show was good.

They needed another innocent after they killed James.

How can I take anything seriously in this show when Jake is still alive? We're told what a killing machine Russell is and yet he couldn't kill a candy bar and take it out of its rapper. It would be more interesting if there was some reason that Command wanted Jake alive just tortured and that his body was meant to

I Hope Leigh will be back with something for their asses. She felt crazy.

Is it just me or is there something really creepy about the way that Rowan keeps stalking his own daughter? Forgive me, but there is no other way to say it - I keep waiting for some subplot or backstory about family sexual abuse because Joe Morton's monologues, while originally strong, are creepy especially when he
