Scandal, Season 5

I found Season 5 really difficult to watch perhaps because there is no more Olitz or Olivia the fixer. It is just a show.

What I like about this show is that we always see incredible performance from each member of the cast, but most importantly from Kerry Washington as Olivia Pope. In each season we've seen her character evolve, but on this particular season at some point the plot became a bit unclear, YES it was about Olivia against her father and trying to save Jake, but is Jake really that important in the show? I thought that the love of Olivia's life was Fitz, apparently now we get an insecure Olivia of who she really loves. On season 5 I felt that they wanted to create a relationship for every character on the show. I would like to see on Season 6 new plots, new characters that really bring something important and different to the show, I don't want anymore of the "COMMAND" plot and B613 plot. We've had great 4 seasons at some point I felt that season 5 was lost and was the least that I liked from the 5 seasons.

When you can’t write, you throw sex. no thank you!

The first 3 seasons were great and I could not get enough. Then they started season 4 and this is when the show took a downward spiral. For me it went from a 5 star to a 1 to 2 star show. Instead of doing what worked it seems like they are out of ideas and I feel like I am watching the news with all the re hashed correct events in here.

Wasn't feeling the beginning of the season....but they ended the winter finale really well....looking forward to the other half of the season.

Amazing show!! Love!

I loved season 1 & 2 of Scandal. Season 3-5 is where the lack is. I was looking forward to seeing huge changes the show would bring this season, but right after watching the recent episode of Scandal this week. I just lost interest. CONS: 1. Papa Pope is out. (What's the point of the season 4 finale in putting him away if the writers chose to bring him out again) 2. The affair between Olivia and Fitz is out. (Didn't we deal with this in Season 3. What happened in the past should stay in the past.) 3. Olivia is not season 1-2 Olivia. (Olivia has been making a lot of wrong decisions lately. What happened to her gut that she said was always right? Plus she can't seem to get her mind right. First, she says she wants to marry Fitz and live in Vermont with him. When the time came for him to ask her to marry him, Liv denies. WTH) 4. Lack of Liv fixing her clients. (This season has been a lot of Olivia and Fitz and it should be Liv doin her thing at OPA and Fitz doing his job as President) The writers of Scandal...please bring the ORIGINAL Scandal back.

Are people actually still watching this?!

But the story changes about as often as the wrinkled brow of the always over worried (despite the supposed character) of Olivia Pope. So over it.

I'm addicted! My favorite show! Love, love, love
