Let me first say: I know it's exhausting when the person covering a show really dislikes the show. And I'm sorry Scandal has gone that way. I really am. But if it helps, I do at least find it fascinating how far this show has plummeted,

I really loved this episode and not just because I'm fairly sure Zoe's tearful wailings over having to leave Lavon's beloved kitchen pastries were a total shout-out (but that aspect was awfully fun, too). Basicallly, it was just very charming: we got some

Have you ever noticed that every Shonda Rhimes show has a character with a signature drink? Meredith and Cristina had tequila, Olivia Pope has red wine, and Annalise Keating has vodka. Lots of it. In a tumbler. But when you're trying to get away with murder, sometimes only

View the gallery The big mission in Russia was a little awkwardly staged, but if you were rooting for Agent Peggy Carter to shoot the squint right off Chad Michael Murray's face... well, she didn't. He's still alive. But he DOES respect her ass-

View the gallery Oh my god we have a lot to talk about. Parts of this episode filled me with GLEE and others with RAGE and others with an intense longing to learn to ride a horse and then time-travel back to the '20s so I could put

Let's begin this recap with a pressing question I saw mentioned on Twitter. Has Fitz been dipping into the Just For Men? It DOES resemble an After shot in a commercial where he runs his fingers through his hair and smiles like he's in an '

This show has been on a break for ages, so just to recap: Rayna dumped Luke on their wedding day, Deacon found out he has either cirrhosis or cancer (or both), Layla OD'd and was found floating in Oliver Hudson's pool, Gunnar is suddenly not suddenly

We are at a state of ORANGE ALERT. There's been some conversation at GFY HQ as to whether the INSANE COLOR of everyone on this show is due to Cracktacular Bronzer Application or A Problem At Color Correction or both, but regardless: OMG YOU GUYS. Although it was

Scandal is all about jumping you ahead five minutes and then being like, "SURPRISE! Okay, fine, let's show you EXACTLY what you missed." This show, on the other hand, likes to repeat over and over again what you've already seen, just in case you

View the gallery It's possible -- POSSIBLE -- that our long national (nay, international) nightmare may be over. RING THE BELLS! All that, plus (unintentionally?) hilarious fisticuffs, bejeweled headpieces aplenty, loads of "Poooooor Edith"ing, and several delectable dressing gowns. Oh, also: veiled accusations of murder, but I

So, this episode was "intense." I put it in quotes because I personally wasn't into it, but you can tell the writers wrote the word INTENSE on the whiteboard and underlined and circled it three times. It has all the hallmarks of someone doing their Most

In which everyone is REALLY REALLY orange again. Did Hart of Dixie get a special deal on bronzer this season? That said: this was a very satisfying episode on many levels. Last week, Zoe told Wade she was having his baby and he drunkenly stumbled home to Lavon and George
