Thoughts on Scandal?

October 3, 2014 by tamaratattles 41 Comments

Huck Scandal 2014

And by thoughts I mean what are your thoughts?  I fell asleep in the middle and just rewatched it. I did not take any notes. But I do have questions.

Is the guy on the surveillance tape that Jake was looking at before Liv showed up the guy that Quinn was with briefly after the whole thing with Huck? And why was he looking at that surveillance video again? Oh yeah, it was that guy and he shows back up next episode.

I still have a hard time believing that is Portia de Rossi. Is it just me? And why is she trying to fuck over Rosen? Is it just because he’s a democrat? Also, why is she getting the hot guy to screw Cyrus?  Why would Cyrus think that guy would be coming on to him in the first place? Cyrus Scandal

How long until Huckleberry Quinn is a thing again?  They almost had angry sex in the bathroom while babysitting the client. And does Huck really have a drinking problem? I know he used to go to AA but I think that was just so he could talk about how much he loved to maim and kill people and that is his real addiction does he normally drink?

Will Mellie have to go to the loonie bin?

What is this whole deal with Liv and Jake not being boyfriend and girlfriend anymore just because they are not…um…standing in the sun?

Was MacArthur Park the best song ever to end the episode with?

Did Sally Langston die last season? I miss her.

I liked the episode and still really like the show. Mellie is the best thing ever, and to think she was supposed to be a two episode character. I missed Eli Rowan this episode…

Talk to me people.

    yeah the guy in the video is the guy quinn was shacked up with for a while. i think portia de rossi’s charator is head of the rnc in this and i think she is trying to get cyrus booted. i love jake and olivia. my god mellie pulled my guts out. her grief seemed so real at the end. i did enjoy her in jammies being kind of nuts. cyrus could never attract a hot guy like that. i missed eli also

    Yes that was him. The better question (and maybe I missed the answer) is what happened when Huck went to go visit his family last season? I believe Portia De Rossi is trying to get Cy kicked out but can’t remember her title all of the way. Jake knows Live is still in love with Fitz, so standing in the sun is cool but since they are in DC he can’t get her full attention. He is looking at video clips again to find out what happened to Harrison. Mellie is amazing, I hope we see her I’m other shows after this.

    I dunno, I think I may be over this show. Nothing makes sense anymore. This happens in Shonda’s shows for me. I love them and then all of a sudden, I’m like, what????? All of a sudden the pieces and people dont go together correctly. You say things like, “but I thought..” and “what the hell” and “who the fuck” and “they werent doing that before..”. I dont know. I think I like the next show bette. For now. I will rely on you, TT

    Jake was watching the video surveillance Bc he saw Rowan Pope, in a black town car, watching them all at the funeral and knows he was t there to provide fatherly support to Liv Bc her friend was murdered. In other words, Jake knew Rowan was responsible for murdering Olivia’s employee.

    I’m not feeling Portia DeRossi either but she’s not the only one over acting (can u say over acting Kerry Washington??)
    I think she’s got another agenda we don’t know about just yet..she’s going too far with the blackmailing and setting people up in this administration, kinda curious what her beef is and WHOM it’s with…Fitz? Perhaps.

    Not sure why Cyrus thought he was THAT lucky to hit the jackpot twice with much, much hotter gay men than himself lol…perhaps he’s really lost his mind like he says he has?

    I’m right there with you with Donna Summer, nothing makes me happier than disco music. I think that losing ties with “Above the Clouds” on Sex and the City (the one the girls party on the roof with the trannies in the meat packing district)…house music is tied with disco for me as house music partly was born from disco.

    I LOVE MELLIE…can someone say Emmy?? This woman deserves an Emmy for her acting and she is THE most underrated woman on that show, she is the reason Kerry Washington looks ridiculous stomping around, she is the reason Olivia Pope is (was?) soooo very ridiculous for loving that bumbling alcoholic co-dependent fool Fitz and allowing him to cloud her judgement, affect her career and waste so much precious time she could’ve had JAKE doing her. I, for one, can’t get enough of topless Jake, sex Jake, assertive & manly Jake…I can touch you in places HE can’t begin to reach…yowwwww!

    Jake isn’t 1/2 a couple with Olivia Bc he demands respect, he rented the hotel room Bc SHE won’t be summoning HIM for sex in EITHER of their homes, he’s treating her a booty call Bc she won’t claim him yet, because they’re not on the island anymore Bc she can’t get enough of wretched D.C…or Fitz so he thinks. I’m down with Jake…treat her like this until she BEGS you to be with her, fully committed! She can ne so much more but Fitz brings her stock wayyyy way down.

    Is it just me or did everyone LOVE MELLIE reporting it’s 1976 down there and she doesn’t give a rats ass???

      Also, Tamra Tattles, I have to tell you I spent an hour of my life I shall never get back on one of your “competitor” sites, and I use competitor VERY loosely, responding to THE most idiotic, horribly written, poorly researched articles regarding the Giuduces & their sentencing. That hour has given me a whole new perspective and even more respect for you & the members here. I shan’t return to that horrible worthless website but I must tell you (I’m sure you’ve heard it before, but I still have to commend you) that you are THE BEST site when it comes to the Housewives and tv shows in general.

      You know your sht, take no prisoners and actually report FACTS. You won’t believe HOW MUCH stupidity is out there, those ppl have no right “reporting” anything Bc they are LYING, or just being lazy and making it up! I’m quite perturbed at the nonsense. “Teresa doing her time after Juicy”, just posted this morning!!
      “Carla of Mob Wives tweeting how unfair Teresa Giudice’s sentence is, she’s a MOTHER for Christ sakes she should get house arrest Bc she has children!!”….”Praying for the Giudice’s”, “Nervous for them”

      OMG. I can’t with people’s ignorance.
      “Teresa wasn’t aware of what her husband was doing! She trusted her hubby..she shouldn’t be faulted for that”

      Anyway, thanks for keeping it real and giving the people well researched and FACTUAL information. I now have a place I can go to if I feel like reading up on tv shows, reality “celebrities” and chatting it up when I can squeeze it in Bc time is precious and ain’t nobody got time for buffoons and website admins & employees whom can’t get anything right and sympathize with CROOKS. I’m not kissing butt! I’m just keeping it real.

        Jake is confirming rowan involvement by connecting Charlie. Charlie was at some restaurant after doing clean up for rowan after Harrison or Adnan murders.

        Somewhere, in some files, Jake came across a receipt from a restaurant (which must have been) located in the same area where Harrison was murdered. By seeing Charlie eating there (in the footage) he confirmed that Rowan was involved.

        By the way, with a HUSH HUSH group of top notch deadly assassins like B6-13, whom nobody knows much about, nobody controls except one man, that nobody can trace, and they request their assassins keep/bring back RECEIPTS from restaurants they ate at?! For what? Frikin expense reports? REALLY?!? That was THE dumbest paper trail thus far. Are the writers getting lazy?

        I have to take a look at Olivia’s mouth again..interesting…but that stomping in and out of rooms with the hair bouncing up & down corridors to further solidify her “confidence” & “no nonsense gladiator” attitude was getting a wee bit much. It worked for a bit, but the ultimate control a weak character like Fitz had over her (especially last season) and all the crap she allowed him to put her through in that wretched mistress role kinda peed all over the whole “Olivia Pope ruler of DC & fixer of all political messes” persona originally intended. We all falter, hopefully they’re going to write her a stronger, more self respectable storyline this season. It def started out better, even IF her fingers flinted towards his in the 1st episode when walking by him…le sigh.

    Watched this morning. Although this episode was better than the first, it’s still not clicking for me. I am going to keep watching though, don’t want to give up yet.
    I do not like Portia’s character and her acting at all.
    This season I am all about Mellie though, great story line and great acting, IMO.
    What did you think about How to get away with murder? I am liking it!

    I’ve never been a Mellie fan until NOW! She is amazing, her grief was so real to me I was in tears when she fell to the ground!

    Charlie is the name of the guy on video, he is also B613 and yes he was Quinn’s man last year. I actually love Huckleberry Quinn, so I hope they hook up soon. I think this is the first time we have ever seen Huck actually drink.

    Wasn’t it in the explosion when Sally died? I miss her too, her speeches were epic.

    I kinda feel like Scandal is falling off for me, it’s just not keeping my interest like it used too. I really need them to get back to season 1 where fixing was everything and the affair was all background stuff.

    Cyrus radar is way off since James death. I saw the setup from the get go just not sure who. Lizzy wants Cyrus job. The Rosen battered woman pic failed so the set guy after Cyrus was an alternate plan. Jake is investigating Harrison, Adnan murders on his own… not sure if he suspects Rowan since he commented on why rowan was at funeral. Yes, that was Charlie, Quinn former love…he is the clean up guy which of course points to B613. Liv does not know he is investigating. Oh, millie I felt your pain with those pearls choking you. Abby is lost in PR role but I liked her standing up to Millie. I liked Davids balls this epi, he really wants AG position. Huck and Quinn will get back together but he is torn over his family (wish they showed what happened when he was at the wife’s door!!!). I prefer liv/Fitz see to liv/Jake sex. Maybe it is just me but liv is being portrayed super slutty this season ….. Great music the whole epi!

      I think it’s because in real life, the people that play Olivia and Fitz (Carry Washington and what’s his name) are dating. So what we are watching is real chemistry and not an acted out one.

        Tamara, that’s who seldom I read the gossip mags. Ladt one I read was Star Magazine, months and months ago. They had an article that said they were dating. I’m sorry I got the info wrong, and I’m sorry I’m breaking a rule by naming another website. But I didn’t just make it up out of the blue! The magazine may have, but I didn’t!

    I liked that they got back to Olivia fixing new problems.

    I am not interested in Huck & Quinn…gross conscious coupling.

    Mellie is shining…good for her, I get the feeling it won’t last for long.

    I have a feeling this show saw its climax last season, but Shonda and her team are good, so I’ll hang in there…unless they keep forcing the Fitz/Olivia relationship which is boring at this point.

    Scandal is “House” mildly entertaining but predictable. I’ll keep viewing. Maybe with HTGAWM- I can determine the episode and season Rhimes goes left field with her scripts.

    HTGAWM- Did the husband slip and tell his his wife that the college girl was found murdered “in the water tank”?????? ( after he just heard on TV that the murdered girl was found)

    (no water tank was mentioned in the *breaking* TV report that the husband was watching)

    season 1. Episode 1.

    Okay, long time reader first time poster. Be gentle! I thought that Jake was looking at receipts etc that supposedly proved that Harrison was traveling across the country and then was caught and killed in Arizona as opposed to being killed in D.C. By seeing it was Charlie in the restaurant eating not Harrison it shows that it was all set up by B613 (aka Papa Pope). At least that’s what I got from the videos. Love you Tamara!
