I enjoyed it
Paulo1738 June 2015
I enjoyed this episode. I think the writers have deliberately left lots of story lines open. It was great to see Command get his comeuppance at last. However I can't see a man of his resources being held for long. Will Jake return? (Hopefully). How could Olivia let him go? We know it's not the end for Cyrus, Mellie, Rowan and Miya. Will Huck curb his murderous ways? Will David and Abby hook up again?..... The only sour note was the vomit inducing final scenes between Olivia and Fitz.....

Does anyone really like this relationship? Everyone I speak to seems to think Olivia and Jake are the perfect match! Come on writers, if you don't want to lose viewers sort this out! Looking forward to the new series.

All the hype for this?

Scandal has always been a very popular show and was widely advertised for the season finale. However I found the finale to be very disappointing. Although I was glad to see Olivia finally take down her father who in my opinion was very annoying and I hope he never comes back, the rest of the episode as a mere mediocre. And the ending which I thought might be a happy one was Olivia and the president making out. REALLY SCANDAL WRITERS? I wished they had stopped pushing this "scandalous" relationship because it's annoying and I don't like the two of them together. I was hoping for Olivia and Jake. And then Fitz kicking out Cyrus and Mellie was horrible. They were protecting you Fitz! Overall I was greatly disappointed with this finale.

Ermm..... Excuse Me?

I'm sorry but what kind of an episode was this?

Jake saying bye. Fitz throwing Mellie out. Huck returning to his old monster ways. And Olivia and Fitz again?!

Okay let me start. I'm a huge Jake Ballard fan. Jake & Olivia make more sense to me than Olivia & Fitz. He bends over backwards for Olivia, he does so much for her and he loves her. And still Olivia loves Fitz? Seriously Liv Pope? What's wrong with you? A note to Jake: us fans LOVE YOU. Through beer and Ghettys burger and the sun and and your stabbing. We love you.

Fitz through Mellie out for giving a list, whilst being blackmailed? It is the worst thing she's done no doubt. But Mr. Grant you're no saint. You are way worse than Mellie. You went to war and so many lives were lost. You were part of Remington. You had an affair. And you were in and out of your marriage whenever you wanted to be. And you throw your wife out? Ugh!! You're pathetic Fitzgerald Grant!! That's why we love Jake more than you.

Whydid Huck have to go 'back there?' The episode could have just gone through without that!! Why oh why this angle?

Olivia. Olivia Pope. You're a crazy lady. You used Jake for your own pleasures. You know he loved you and you just used him. Somehow letting Jake just leave and getting back together with Fitz, makes you as pathetic as him. You two Dimwits deserve each other.

As for Shonda Rhimes. I thanked you in my previous review for good TV. I take that back. After McDreamy and Jake and all the crap in-between. No Thank Yous to you Rhimes.

One good thing about the whole episode was Eli Pope/ Command/ Rowan in prison.

I'm done with Greys Anantomy. Now if Olitz continues done with Scandal too!!
