Scandal season 4 review

There is no doubt most of the time that “Scandal” is a pop-culture phenomenon at ABC. The ratings are typically extraordinary, and there are always things to talk about. With this being said, it does not always mean that the show is particularly good. This series is very often flawed, with the writing sometimes veering […]

Before it goes off the air for a little while, “Scandal” clearly has quite a few loose ends that it needs to tie up. They have the story of Command, Olivia’s personal life, Elizabeth North, Huck’s family, and so much more. It is fair to say that not all was exactly resolved on Thursday night’s […]

With Jake Ballard locked away in prison, “Scandal” still found a way to not miss a beat Thursday night. We learned quite a bit about what Abby has went through, and to go along with, Huck got a big dose of reality. This was almost as important an episode for the supporting characters as it […]

Thursday night’s new episode of “Scandal” was entitled “An Innocent Man,” and there were many questions that came throughout. One of the biggest ones?

Fitz is a man who clearly has been through a lot […]

Sometimes, new episodes of “Scandal” really don’t have that very word in the title, but we can say one thing for sure about tonight’s “Like Father, Like Daughter”: It certainly did. At the center of the story was the indiscretion involving Fitz and Mellie’s daughter, who got herself involved with making a very inappropriate tape […]

“Scandal” likes to paint a world where nothing is sound or particularly clear, and even members of some of the highest courts can be persuaded with threats. In one of the biggest moves for the David Rosen character so far, he basically used some evidence about a judge’s past in order to ensure that Fitz’s […]

Tonight’s “Scandal” season 4 episode was all about an event that happens for every single President: The State of the Union Address. For Fitzgerald Grant, he had to figure out how to make a proper address in the time of unspeakable grief. The chain of unfortunate events started when someone snapped a photo of her […]
