Scandal: best escapism on TV

[AnneLovesGilbert]

Pure technicolour, heart-stopping, gratuitous, aggravating, amazing, addictive trash.

Recently caught up and it's madder but better than ever.

I love scandal it is totally bonkers how does Livvy do the walk and hairbounce combo it is fabulous 😁 I am just 3 episodes of the new series

I know, and in those skyscrapers!

I've decided that David is the only decent man there's ever been in it.

And I can't remember what happened to the VP, his ex? Any idea?

OLIVIA dug up fake scandal on susan so she would drop out of the presidential race something to do with her ex being in prison and her daughter

No her Dds real dad was in prison the VP said her Dds died in Afghanistan and was a war hero livvy dug all that up

Ahaaa, that rings a bell! Thank you.

Am intrigued by Olivia gone bad, but can’t bear to watch the current series given the latest plot twist!

Kerry Washington plays Olivia so well.

David was always my favourite of the blokes, although he’s still not THAT great!

I think this series is going to be irritating but it is the last series so you have to stick it out. David really tries his best to be good.

I think he did something bad to Red but not what it was. Wasn’t he hiding out in OPA and sleeping on the sofa trying to crack codes?

Are we worried about Quinn?

I really went off it around halfway through series 5. It just got a bit too graphic and became very unbelievable. Should I go back to it?

Oh, it’s grim! I put my fingers in my ears and get to poke me when the gross bits are over.

It’s the most annoying, aggravating show on tv. But it’s one of the most engrossing, vivid, brilliant thing too. Shonda is a beautiful genius!
