#tgit crossover

[horsetailcurlers2]

nobody cares but i finally watched all of scandal and have now seen the full trifecta of TGIT shonda shows so here are my thoughts:

-it’s very interesting to me now having watched all three of the main OG shondaland shows just noticing all of the parallels and similarities between shows. obviously they’re all their own things with their own unique writers rooms and casts, but i think there’s definite thematic parallels and even just a familiarity to all of the dialogue. like how siblings have similar speech patterns.

-it’s also fun (for me especially because i watch so much fucking television and i love going on imdb) trying to spot all of the actors that have been in other shonda shows. (there’s also a surprising amount of crossover between shondaland actors and mad men actors)

-i really really liked olivia pope for the first four seasons. seasons 5-7 were rough. but i have to give shonda props bc i do love screwy and morally flawed female characters. although i have to say i think annalise keating from HTGAWM was much more compelling and had a better and more coherent story. she’s prob my fave of the three main shonda ladies.

-i got a little sick of B613. i gave it a chance when i thought it would just be maybe a season arc (even though i liked it better with the history they’d first established about it in “spies like us”) but oh my god it just got so fucking exhausting and ridiculous. the case of the week format was much better and more interesting than the B613 show.

-this is more specific than any of my other thoughts so far but i can’t stop thinking about in season 5 episode 12 when liz north tells david “down boy” and he immediately gets on all fours thinking it’s a sex thing.

-i hated fitz less by the end than i did in the beginning but i still don’t care for him. they couldn’t make me care about olitz at all. that relationship was more tiresome than merder to me.

-MELLIE MY LOVE. my darling. my president. bellamy young is fucking dynamite.

-i’m abby whelan’s number one defender im sorry. i TRY my best not to put too much stock in other people’s opinions of shows before i watch them but i’d seen some stuff online about a lot of people hating abby so i was nervous as i progressed through the show. but i still loved her by the end. i think it’s interesting how in a show of people who all do horrible fucked up shit, people hold all of the characters to such wildly different standards. i wonder if people were less willing to forgive abby because they found her “annoying”. fortunately that trick doesn’t work on me because i think annoying women are sexy.

-abby and olivia’s relationship was so beautifully complex and flawed and interesting to me. i think that dynamic is very underrated and unexplored. it reminded me in some small ways of annalise and bonnie’s relationship in HTGAWM.

-david rosen did not need to die. not narratively. not logistically. killing off an original character in the finale of a show honestly feels like a really shitty thing to do.

-i think that cyrus should have died. not even just personally i just think that would have been the best way to wrap up his story. i really thought he was going to have another heart attack by the end of the show.

-susan ross was maybe the only truly good person on the show and she deserved better than she got

So, the Scandal/HTGAWM crossover... do I have to watch Scandal too? Or is it just on HTGAWM?

Because I have no fucking clue what’s happening on Scandal; I haven’t watched the last 3.5 seasons...
