ABC’s ‘Scandal’ season 4 debate: Should Cyrus receive a new love interest?
Every Thursday, we at CarterMatt want to give you something new to talk about when it comes to “Scandal” … at least until season 4 possibilities are so explored that there are few things left to even talk about.
So today, we raise the all-important question of “what happens now?” when it comes to the Cyrus character. Namely, can we see him actually fall in love again? There were many characters who went through devastating times this year, but few had it as bad as he did. He lost James, the love of his life. Despite everything that they went through (which was clearly a lot), the two still had love for each other that withstood the dramatic situations and the arguments (and there were definitely plenty of those).
So should Cyrus find love again next season? We’re here with both the pros and the cons.
The case for him finding love – You want to see Cyrus happy, right? We know that we count ourselves among those who do, and he’s someone who really deserves a win. We suppose he got one with Fitz being elected, but it came at the expense of the President’s son being killed. He needs one that comes without strings attached.
As for whether or not it is a good thing that Cyrus finds love so quickly, remember that the show moves a mile a minute. What happens next season may therefore feel like years ago.
The case for him not finding love … for now – It’s not so much about him finding love “too quickly” as it is the very principle of someone finding love as the key to happiness. This could be a chance for the show to tie joy as something different than love. They do that occasionally when it comes to Cyrus at the workplace, but this show could certainly use more of that.
Also, it should by that Cyrus gets another love interest only when the right one comes around. The last thing that we would want is for something to feel forced.
