Scandal (ABC) [*SPOILERS* - US Pace]

Agent Coulson

Now that should have been the 100th episode.

A great death and a great ending a great new President.

Penny Dreadful

For a 100th episode that was terrible a what if story!


So instead of revealing who the bad guys are and bringing the story line to a head they went with that a basically filler episode as the 100th to a fun series.

I agree. The shooting of the president elect was dramatic and the story hasn't progressed at all since. I'm thoroughly bored of Olivia and her bloody handbags prancing around the place and telling everyone that "Huck, my Huck almost died".
It's the worst season by a long shot and if it doesn't pick up soon I think I'm going to part ways with it.

LLMMLL

I think it's better than the last few seasons. But now we have Olivia/President romance again. Ugh. It'd also kind of laughable 1. Cyrus having a chance of being president 2. Olivia supporting Cyrus for president. He's like the most evil character in it.

Mr E

Great episode. Didn't even watch 100 (I heard it was terrible).

I think I've said it a few times in this thread but Jeff Perry steals every scene he is in. The scene with Olivia outside Cyrus's hotel room and his speech about Frankie were award-worthy.

Agent Coulson

When Joe Morton and Jeff Perry are on screen you can really see how poor the other actors are.

Those two just ooze charisma and talent.




I know the show is ridiculous and that's part of the reason I enjoy it but it's nearly going too far now Olivia is ruining the show for me at this stage.

Galadriel

And wasn't it Olivia's Dad that killed Fitz's son? and now he's protecting him, I know he doesn't like him but it's still totally unbelievable.

Agent Coulson

So this shadow group that can send drones all over America kill a President elect etc etc etc all end like that.

Even for Scandal that was just a ridiculous to finish them off kill those two because no one else is involved in the shadow group.


Well is unless there is going to be another twist which I wouldn't put past them.

Agent Coulson

Scandal will end after season 7.

I think 7 seasons was always Shonda's plan

A Cyrus or Charlie/Quinn spin off could work

Agent Coulson

Of course Mommy Pope is behind everything.


Olivia must be the most annoying character on tv right now.

Agent Coulson

So Cyrus was behind it all bluff double buff triple bluff.





And the real monster all along is Olivia if that wasn't obvious.


Mommy & Daddy Pope have nothing on here.

Mr E

Clever finale. You have to imagine that Liv isn't going to walk off into the sunset at the end of the next season.

It could very well be B613 vs OPA in Season 7, and since it's the last season, there are going to be lots of casualties.

Should be fun.

Agent Coulson

Mr E

Was Olivia always this annoying? Didn't really enjoy that episode.

Agent Coulson

She was really I think.


Didn't like it myself either I kind of hope quiet a few of them get killed off before it ends.

Agent Coulson

I think Mellie needs something filled.

I'd offer if I was closer :pac:

Agent Coulson

I really enjoyed this week's episode focus on Fitz & Marcus.


No Olivia also makes it better.

Mr E

After an afternoon of catching up on some really mediocre TV (Z Nation, Scorpion, Blacklist, Arrow), this week's Scandal was a shining gem in the muck.

Really good episode, nice seeing Olivia taken down a few pegs and it had a really great ending.

More of the same, please.

"I dont like you"- what we were all thinking! :pac:

Agent Coulson

So much guess is Daddy Pope has Quinn.

Mr E

So is Robin dead, or is it a bluff? Being the last season, they can pretty much kill off anyone they want.

Killing her for bones was a ludicrous storyline.

Baby Robin obviously survived....

Nah sure the hairpin was a clue that it's not robin. Or I'm completely wrong in which case I should have been mourning more while watching but I just don't believe she's dead.

Agent Coulson

That played out as I expected.


Joe Morton just acts the whole cast off the screen.

Mr E

Joe Morton is a class act. Great actor. But still...

Agent Coulson

Olivia needs a bullet to the back of the head and to be dumped in an unmarked grave.

Agent Coulson

Slick way to bring in the crossover with How To Get Away With Murder.

Care to put it in spoilers? I gave up on HTGAWM.

HTGAWM is my fave TGIT show, love it so much. I'd recommend sticking it out if you can. Where did you stop watching? Im looking forward to seeing the crossover!

I stopped watching after the 1st or 2nd episode this season. I really don't miss it. I am looking forward to the cross over though. I read an episode recap so I know what happened in the HTGAWM episode.

Mr E

The crossover was only OK.

The best part of it was the blackboard scene at the start (clever).

Agent Coulson

A great episode this week.

Jeff Perry is just such a great actor.


Any episode where Olivia is a bit part or not the central character is always a good thing.

Mr E

"Here we go". That was a great setup for the finale next week. Should be a really fun episode.

Agent Coulson

Finale tonight I really hope Olivia gets the bullet in the back of the head.

mel.b

Sadly i don’t think it will happen...the second half of this season has been about het redemption...back wearing the white hat. I would have liked it if she’d gone down, it would have been a real transformation then

Mr E

Jake has to die anyway. Wonder if Rowan will survive? What about Cyrus? I'll have to watch first thing tomorrow to avoid spoilers.

Most of the cast are on Kimmel afterwards as far as I know....

Agent Coulson

I saw yesterday Bellamy Young said she got an email saying everything has changed in the final cut of the finale.

Agent Coulson

Very very very very very very very disappointing!!!!!



None of them gave a sh1t that the only good guy in the entire show was the one to get murdered!


Olivia's Vince McMahon strut was also such a pain at the end.





BOLLIX to the whole thing!

Mr E

I won't be able to see it until after the weekend now, but I'm disappointed with your thoughts - the last episode should have gone out on a high.

I agree, it was a bit meh. Was expecting much more drama. I knew David was a goner as soon as he agreed to meet with Cyrus. Apparently Huck then kills Cyrus but it was cut from the episode.

Mr E

Such a f**king limp episode and a kick in the nuts for anyone who has watched all 124 episodes.
