capsule review of Scandal

Jun 25, 2015 14:20

Olivia's outfits: 7/10 please review Joan Watson on sophistication without monotony

Olivia's boobs: 3/10 hiked to your chin isn't actually a good look

Olivia's traumatized face: 10/10 good casting but writers why is this 50% of each episode

Fitz: 0/10 would neither elect nor make out with

Mellie: 9/10 needs better program, husband, everything

Olivia's relationships with her staff etc: 8/10 can we please please have more of this

That one doppelcest fic: 3/10 should really have been more interesting than it was

Main problem with show: Shonda Rhimes and I disagree on nearly everything about what is romantic or hot, and the show thinks it's about that. (To calibrate, Leverage has only like one writer who thinks the show is about Nate, so it's a very good show with occasional eyerolls and complaints; this is a case of the show really not being about the right thing and thus I am bored. Stopping midway season 2, there are good things out there to watch and also non-tv things to do.)
