Childhood crushes are a dangerous thing. Date your childhood crush, you put on blinders about how he's the weirdest person in the world.

The girlfriend was very special episode of parenthood.

I liked it. I cried. But damn, that adoption went through really fast. I still don't know why they were hyping like maybe Crosby would die earlier in the season when it was pretty obvious that Zeek would. And where was Haddie's cool girlfriend? Or did she only come out to her mom?

Stop crying, ShondaLand is back. Both Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder return to television tonight and there will be open threads here. Last we left off, Olivia Pope was apparently kidnapped. As for HTGAWM, we now know who killed Sam. Just read this and catch up.
