ABC Thursday Night Lineup! Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, & How To Get Away With Murder!

September 25, 2014 by tamaratattles 26 Comments

Kerry Washington ScandalHey y’all. I ran a few errands in the world today and didn’t eat until late in the afternoon. As soon as I ate I fell asleep while trying to catch up on a few things online.  I’m not sure what exactly causes the narcoleptic fits but I’m sure it’s related to blood sugar or something I ate. Anyway, I’ve been looking forward to ABC’s primetime lineup tonight and it’s all recorded in case I doze off again.  I am certainly not alert enough to recap.

UPDATE: Random Thoughts on the Premiere Here!

Scandal with  all of that fast talking the cast does. If you see this in time you can catch some of my old Scandal recaps here to get caught up.

I just watched parts of the season finale and remember enough now to be ready for the premiere, Columbus Short’s character is gonna die Eli Pope is responsible for killing Fitz and Mellie’s son, though most people think it was Olivia’s mom, Olivia’s Mom is thought to be dead but Eli has her in the hole in the ground cell at B613, and Olivia and Jake have flown off to parts unknown, and Huck has just walked up to the front door where his long lost family lives.

Huck Scandal 2014

I haven’t watched Grey’s Anatomy in a hundred years. I forget why I stopped watching but it will take me a while to catch up with that show.

And I am breathlessly awaiting Viola Davis in How to Get Away With Murder. My favorite show of all time was a show that was on reruns when I was a little girl. It was called Paper Chase. I don’t know why I ever started watching it as it was pretty mature for my age. It was about a law students going to law classes. That’s pretty much the whole story. They wrote the law journal it wasn’t anything earth shattering. But I be this will be. UPDATE: I did a full primer in case you missed it.

All this is to say I am going to wimp out on y’all tonight, but I’m dying to know what y’all think of these three shows and which if any you think I should recap. I’m warning you now, Scandal is pretty impossible to recap because the dialogue is so fast, but I do usually do a list of the best quotes instead because the writing is SO GOOD.

I hope you will comment here and let me know what you think!

    I am so excited for Shondaland night on ABC! I love Scandal and look forward to watching HTGAWM. Not watching Grey’s. Last season was mediocre and the show needs to be put out of its misery and cancelled.

    Loved John Houseman. He certainly played an intimidating character.
    I never watched Grey’s Anatomy much. Thursday is Project Runway. I miss ER. That and St. Elsewhere were the most realistic medical shows.

        So my favorite was HTGAWM. I did not see that last scene coming. And this is an unexpected role for Viola Davis. I see why she took it now.

        Scandal was good too, but it’s going to take a few episodes for that to gel again and for everyone to go back to using their own names and being who they are.

        I don’t know how interested I am in watching Greys… But I like the whole daughter doesn’t know who her father is and he does and one sister knows they are sister thing and the other doesn’t.

        But the medical part of the show is sort of blah.​

      I know! All the good dramas are coming back. Dramas are actual work. RH shows are so formulaic they are easy. “They went to lunch and called each other cunts” “This one met with that one to talk about the other ones terrible behavior at lunch” This one wants a baby. Every goes to prison. The end.

      🙂 ​

    Watching Scandal right now, it is so good. I rewatched the finale last week so I was up to date. I like this year so far, Mellie is an adorable fruitcake.
    The White House does seem a mess but calmer.
    In so happy Scandal is back.

    I watched all three and enjoyed Scandal the most because I am more familiar with it. We know of all the twist and turns from last season, but it needs to be less melancholy during the next few episodes. I felt Harrison would be dead once Columbus Short had been fired, and getting to the truth of who killed him and why will be an underlying theme this season. My Spidey sense tell me that Cyrus will be implicated in his death as the season unfolds.

    Please recap HTGAWM because I enjoyed the show, and I love Viola Davis, but I got a little lost in the sauce during the middle of the show once my meds started to kick in. I will definitely have to re-watch these two shows on demand to gain a better perspective on each. Grey’s was interesting as well with the daughter-sister-father story line,but I do not know how long it can hold my attention. Cannot wait to read your recap.

      ​I may hold off on recapping these two until next episode. I need a bit of time to get back tuned in to what is going on.

      Like with Scandal I rewatched the finale today and thought it was pretty obvious that Eli and his goon killed Harrison. He made some Young Black and Gifted reference on the finale and then said something similar when denying it to Olivia. Of course they did not SHOW who shot him….so…

      Cyrus’s hair is GOD AWFUL this season. I hope that doesn’t last.

      Get Away w/Murder, the flash backs were distracting. I wish they would just stop at the beginning and not flash back and forth the dead body scenes. Also I thought the whole time the dead body was a female according to their conversations and then, the victim was kind of startling and we have no idea what would lead to that.

      Also there seems to be a lot of gratuitous sexual liaisons. I’m fine with all the sex you want to shove in there (um so to speak) but the plot is so bifurcated already, the sex needs to be plot driven…

      As you put it, it’s really easy to get lost in the sauce where or not your are medicating. 🙂

    I can’t never give up on Grey’s Anatomy. So happy scandal is back; I am gladiator for life.Lol Poppa Pope is pure wicked. Mellie is a mess. Columbus Short must be kicking himself for messing such a cushy job. Since they never showed Harrison’s body, maybe Shonda can bring him back if he gets his life together. Are we Gladiators or are we Bitches! I’m officially hooked on Viola Davis’ s new show “How to Get Away With Murder”. She’s amazing in it. Hope it does well.

    I love them all. I think they all should be recapped but if I were to pick one, How to get away with murder would be my choice. I am still deciding how I feel. uou give really good, convincing recaps

    Paper Chase. I was trying to think of the name of that show. Law school and grumpy professor. Viola Davis so far — she is awesome.
