Any Scandal fans? SPOILERS OK...

I avoided this show because it's Shonda Rhimes and I hate Grays Anatomy.
It's got lots of buzz on Twitter so I thought I'd try it out on Netflix.
I'm addicted.
I watched 30 episodes in about a week and Season 3 premiers tomorrow night (Thursday)

So many great characters. Compelling story lines, some are kind of hokey ala Grays, but over all an excellent show.

Am I alone?

Yep. She is always plotting.

Sally has a backstory that must eventually be explored.
It has already been revealed in a previous season that she had an abortion when she was much younger. Beyond that, I agree that she seems way too comfortable in the muck to maintain her image of self-righteousness.

lol

Yes and the Prez used that tidbit to temporarily shut her down.

One of the first episodes of this season, she did a :rolleyes: when the Prez mentioned her husband so there might be something interesting going on there too. It would be funny (and what many believe is going on with a real US congresswoman) if they find her husband is hitting for the same team as Cyrus.

Not only hitting on the same team, but might be hitting the same player.

Rarely do my Scandal predictions pan out.

Quinn pulled the letter opener out of her boyfriend's neck hastening his demise. Now she kills the guard and leaves her DNA everywhere. I like that crazy woman though.

Mellie's backstory was incredible. That rape scene was hard to watch. She has been through a lot with Fitz but I liked how he defended her with the press.

Momma Pope was locked up for 20+ years? WTH?

Wow, Mellie is one tough woman. I want to hate her, but I just can't. And yes, good on Fitz for standing up for her.

OMG, Daddy dearest is just so evil. Wonder what Mama Pope did for him to lock her up?

And yes, Quinn is an idiot. Maybe Huck will just kill her cause she's too stupid to be allowed to live.

Is it the Presidents Son or Brother?
The baby we see today is not from the pregnancy that may or may not have been conceived by Fitz's father. That pregnancy took place many (8?) years ago and ended in (as far as we know) miscarriage.

The baby they do have was conceived at some point during Fitz's presidency, well after his father had died.

So much happened in the last episode that I need a second watching to process it. Olivia has strange parents. Good thing she became a "Gladiator in a Suit" instead of a criminal mastermind.

Loving Mellie, Jake, and James more and more,

Just finished viewing YOLO. Whoa, Cyrus is just so evil. I almost felt sorry for him, but not quite.

And Mommy Dearest is a terrorist? And Daddy had her locked up to protect Liv from her? Really?? So why was the plane shot down?

And Huck and Quinn? Wow, that was so creepy.
My thoughts on that are that the Mom planted the bomb on the plane and then somehow got herself removed from the plane so that she'd live. The B613 guy/government found out about it at some point thereafter and had Fitz/military shoot the plane down and arrest the mom. Dad never told Olivia about it because he didn't want Olivia to know mom is a terrorist.

Of course, I could be wrong and it could be that Mom was taken off the plane and arrested right then and there. The government just didn't know there was a bomb on the plane and only found out after the plane took off. The only thing is that it seemed from the phone call that mom thought she was going to get to London or where ever she was going. That's why I think option 1 is better and she came off the flight on her own and was going to get to where she was going on another flight.

I figure it has to be one of those two options.

The 2-part mid-season finale left me shaking my head.

Papa is out and Jake is in?
Mama forced the US to commit terrorism and now runs the DC streets.
Sally has some crazy temper.
Quinn is one strong (and stupid) woman. She has a few teeth snatched from her head and runs around as if nothing happened.
Abby has some magic going with her boyfriend.
