#Scandal Promotes Portia de Rossi to Series Regular for Season 5 http://t.co/SzLGJoXga8 @ScandalABC
— Hollywood Reporter (@THR) May 15, 2015Mellie has sacrificed her soul — and marriage — for her Senate seat —
But I don't think she knew was doing either of those things, especially because Fitz was so for her and with her. It was so sweet these last few episodes, because, although she might not have his heart, she had his partnership and that was enough for her. She's really like, a "four crumbs and I'm good" kind of girl when it comes to Fitz. So for him to turn so swiftly and kick her out was an absolute kick in the gut. I don't think she saw it coming in any way, shape or form and I don't think she realized she was risking anything. She just thought it was finally her turn.
Looking back, does Mellie think it was worth it? She has the blood of 16 people on her hands, lost her marriage and her place at the White House.
In the moment where we see her walk out of the White House, I think there is a significant turn of a real paralysis and shock. The enormous cost is so overwhelming. I don't know how she'll go forward — especially because not that long ago, she couldn't even get dressed or act right because she was still mourning Jerry. So all this new, fresh ugliness, I genuinely don't know how Mellie will cope.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Has Rowan really been beaten or is he already planning his next move now that he’s behind bars?
JOE MORTON: Rowan is always planning his next move. He’s probably frustrated at the moment. In my mind, it feels like something he can slip out of fairly easily. I know they’re accusing him of extortion, but given everything else that he’s done, it seems like something he should be able to slip out of it. Now I say that, but the other side of the coin is that he’s spent all kinds of time, energy and money to protect Rowan, but maybe not time and effort to protect Eli. It comes to him, “Oh, I may have messed up here. I didn’t spend time to protect this particular chess piece.”

So far Marvel Agents of Shield knows how to do a Season Finale. Scandal's Finale was pathetic. Olivia set out destroy B613 and take down the President. Everyone cleans up her mess and they get the blame. The President self-righteous attitude was beyond sickening.
ReplyDeleteWell, well. Eli, Cy and Mellie is gonna be interesting for next season. As well as Mother Pope on the loose.
ReplyDeleteFinally Olivia made her chose and she chose fitz finally ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteMellie got what she wanted a political career. Cyrus can be Mellie's chief of staff in the Senate. It is going to be Mellie/Cyrus versus Fitz/Olivia/Lizzie. Fireworks are coming with the Presidential divorce.
ReplyDeletePlus hopefully no more B613 on the show.
I was really desappointed by Scandal finale. It was one of the least interesting episode of the season. I hated it. Not sure I'll want to watch next season. The ending was blah!
ReplyDeleteScandal let me down... I was expecting something big... Yes Olitz back together is big but I wanted something bigger... So what was foxtail? The bus thing I guess? They never really explained that... At least papa pope is down for the count, for now... So glad Quinn finally ripping Huck a new one!
ReplyDeleteWho's right for Olivia? My list
ReplyDeleteJake >>>>>>>>>
>>>>>> My TrashCan>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>> The Devil
Fitz
I love Olivia and Fitz together, but i feel sorry for Cyrus and Mellie (much more)
ReplyDeleteI hope that in season 5, those two and Fitz will be in better terms. Lizzie bear and Olivia don't like each other. Bring back Cyrus.
I don't trust Lizzie bear
Great season finale. It fed my OLAKE love and my Olitz hate. Portia de Rossi becoming a regular cast member? One of the things I loved about Scandal - NO yellow haired monsters as regular cast members. But I understand.
ReplyDeleteFoxtail was Mellie's nickname.
