And coupled with the fact that Mellie was also part of the election rigging and has done way more vile shit than Olivia, but everyone is rooting for her happiness - yeah, right.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. They are appreciated. But sometimes, especially on a message board, I try to alleviate my level of being aggravated, therefore, I stay mute on some points. But in this instance, I just had to get it out. To me, it is crazy that their are people who want Olivia to be with…

Why do we have to be "blinded" by the rekindling of Olivia and Fitz? If you remember the SCANDAL is a political fixer who is in love with the President. If you don't believe me, just watch a few of the commercials and also notice that Kerry and Tony are the ones who the network use to do most of the promoting for…

True, but the recapper didn't make that clear - you on the other hand, made it clear because like you, I said WTF! when he mentioned that school shooting. I literally cried, real tears, over Sandy Hook, especially with the children being so young and it was around Christmas time so I caught it. But I still stand…

What's even funnier is that the ratings went down from 12 million to 7 million because Shonda had refused to put Olivia and Fitz back together. Like you said, so many people stopped watching because of the bad writing of Olitz. It's good that Shonda did a reset and now the storyline of Olitz can actually move along…

Thank you, brilliant post.

Wow. I want a happy ending to the show. Why can't Olivia be happy and be with the man she truly loves. Hell, Shonda even gave Meredith and Derek a couple of years. I say let Olivia be happy.

When was Olivia ever denied access to the WH. During the 2 episode of Season 4, Olivia was helping Fitz with his state of the union address. Olivia has always had free reign in the WH

I don't find Fitz reaction to Mellie illogical at all. It was, for Fitz, Defiance 2.0. Look at Fitz reaction to Olivia during Defiance. As Fitz stated, it was the betrayal - it was the back room deal Olivia made with Hollis, Mellie and Cyrus that had Fitz upset. Remember, Fitz told Olivia - "we were suppose to be…

But the recapper did not make it known that it was Jake that set up the school shooting to distract the American public from what was going on in Kenya. Yeah, I admit, I must have been the only person that caught that.

You know Art, as a black woman, I wanted to bring this issue up a thousand times, but feared it because people would just say I was "playing the race card".

I'm with you curzonberry. I loved the fact that Olivia was finally "taking charge" of her life. I loved the fact that when Jake, once again, offered to take Olivia away, she refused and told him she was going for what is hers.

Look at the screw t you "Olitz" fans Shonda sent in the season 3 finale.

So basically a student must live in Virginia a full 12 months before they can get in-state tuition but to run for political office, you only have to have an apartment in your name. Now that makes absolutely no sense.

But the show made it known that Mellie and Fitz were both from California. When did Mellie have time to establish residency in Virginia? Once Susan became VP I don't recall Mellie going to Virginia for 30 days (I assume the state has some type of residency requirement), nor do I remember Mellie buying a house in…

Why would the reviewer feel manipulated? B613 is a killing machine, but noticed this is the second failed attempt kill Jake - remember the car bombing. Also, what about Huck, Quinn and Charlie? The reviewer should have known that Shonda wasn't about to kill off any of the man characters. Hell, she didn't even kill…

Yes Rowan was over which is why I enjoyed Mama Pope's read of Olivia. She basically told Olivia that she creates things to fix and I found myself nodding my head. Many people believe that it was Huck and his wife who created the miss, but according to last night, it was Olivia who wanted to get Rowan out of her life…

Thank you! Mellie did what she did because she wanted to win - period, point blank! She withheld knowledge of her rape because she wanted Fitz to win his bid for governor and she withheld knowledge that this "Demascus" was blackmailing her because she wanted to win the Senate seat.

Therein lies the problem with some viewers like you. You just can't get passed the adultery. Its like me watching empire but can't get passed the fact that it was built on drug money.

Shonda and writers felt that they could get away with Huck hitting Jake in the chest and bringing him back to life when sane people (me) stated that Jake would have bled out. So I didn't bat an eye when it was revealed that Huck shot up the bus. I just chalked it up to "Shonda being Shonda"
