Scandal season 4 review

This is what it came down on “Scandal“: A showdown between various parties. Command has shown to be more than just a physical force; they are also manipulative, covert, and destructive. They turned loved ones against each other, and that includes Huck and Quinn. Huck forced himself to have to work for the organization as […]

“Scandal” has never shied away from hard topics, and it is with that in mind you cannot be even remotely surprised that tonight’s episode touched on the subject of rape in the military. This is obviously a tough subject, and one that has been an integral part of a variety of shows, including “NCIS” recently. […]

Tonight, Shonda Rhimes may have already composed her version of the Red Wedding. We already know what happened over on “Grey’s Anatomy” (we won’t spoil it here if you have not seen it yet), but over on “Scandal” we had a chance to see whether or not the show was going to do something even […]

“Scandal” certainly had an intense episode Thursday night, but after going through a few arcs in past seasons that were far more serialized, we have to say that we have a hard time going back to the story-of-the-week format. A good chunk of the story was about the murder of the Mayor’s wife. Now, let’s […]

B613 is in many ways the ghost of “Scandal.” The organization surfaces from time to time, and just about every time it does, it ends up causing some problems as a result. They’ve also felt at times like a beast impossible to take down. Even when it seemed that Olivia Pope had an airtight strategy, […]

Tonight, “Scandal” told a story that could have been romantic for most part. Instead, what we had was more evidence that it was perpetually raining all over Cyrus’ world. He was getting married to Michael, but at the same time the entire ceremony was a sham start to finish. This was a all a way […]

We know that Lena Dunham probably wanted the full experience on “Scandal” Thursday night, and after watching the episode, we have to say that she got it and then some. She was front and center for the majority of the story, as her character of Sue had a book stuffed full of some of Washington’s […]

Tonight, “Scandal” spent a little bit of time letting us know a thing or two more about Susan Ross. She is Fitz’s hand-picked Vice-Presidential candidate, and a woman who was seemingly plucked out of nowhere in the Senate for one sole purpose: Making absolutely certain that Mellie has a chance at being President someday, and […]

We knew that “Scandal” would be a powerful episode tonight the moment that we found out the premise: The murder of a young black man by a white police officer in Washington DC. This was obviously meant to mimic current events, and raise questions that are extremely complex that go beyond just protests, allegations, or […]

Tonight’s “Scandal” episode may as well have been entitled “scary eBay,” since a good portion of it was spent waiting to uncover just who was going to be the winning bidder for Olivia Pope’s services. Interesting, her talents have nothing to do with why she was on the auction block in the first place. Instead, […]
