Although I am loving the female power, etc.. I do think Olivia is being a little extra with how she's approaching people with her blackmailing & figured eventually people aren't going to give in like this president guy. & I wonder if Mellie is really interested in his advance towards her.

I’m enjoying it after the last couple seasons fell short. I like the evolution of Olivia, she’s entirely different from S1 and turned into her father. I LOVE that she’s stepped out of Fitz’s shadow

I think Olivia is in over her head. Quinn disappearing has me puzzled. I thought Olivia had something to do with it.

I'm not digging Livs attitude this season. I get she's turning into command, but she seems to just be following Jakes ideas. I think Jake is behind Quins disappearance too.
I do wonder where this will all go, since it's the last season. They seem to be opening more storylines, rather than getting things wrapped up.

I do wonder where this will all go, since it's the last season. They seem to be opening more storylines, rather than getting things wrapped up. I’m not digging this season so far. I mean, I washed dishes while watching the last episode yesterday. I don’t like Liv right now. I’m kind of just watching out of obligation since I watched the whole show up until now. But really, they started losing me about 2 seasons ago. I don’t like how they have Liv turning evil becoming command, and I don’t like how weak they are making Mellie as POTUS. I feel like the Quinn storyline is weird but maybe just for her IRL pregnancy. But really are they going to have her missing for much of the season then?? I feel like knowing she would be out for at least part of the last season, maybe don’t make her character such an integral part with getting handed OPA?? It seems weird.

They lost me a little when Liv was kidnapped. That's when they didn't have OPA taking interesting cases, I liked that about the show. And yes! Why are they making Mellie a wuss? Complaining about being lonely? When was that ever an issue with other her before? Also, where is her son ever. Or daughter. So many questions. I do love the dialogue about civil issues happening irl though. Fitz and Marcus's relationship is interesting to watch.

It never recovered. I miss the original premise of OPA taking cases. With Mellie I could understand them pointing to how it probably is lonely at the top, but FFS, she’s been in the office for like half a year and doesn’t know what to do so she calls on Marcus for secret advice?! It’s just weird.

I know that it isn't a kid driven show, and figuring out the logistics of childcare isn't exciting. But they should at least be seen once in a while. Greys anatomy drives me crazy with this too.

Greys anatomy drives me crazy with this too. Oh I gave up on Greys long ago. I feel like she creates great shows, but loses momentum (maybe by jumping to the next project, HTGAWM?) and doesn’t know when to give up the show. At least with scandal they are quitting now, but I feel like it’s maybe 2 years too late.

I cannot stand Olivia this season. I feel like they are making her so unnecessarily cruel, cold, and unlikable. It's like there's no shred of the former white hat Olivia left, no warmth. I think she would have had Quinn killed in a heartbeat if she felt threatened enough.
I also don't like how weak they are making Mellie seem.
Poor Charlie (nothing like rooting for a career killer, lol) - I hope Quinn comes back and they get their happy ending.

I will keep watching because it is the last season. I'm not loving this season at all though. I don't want Olivia to end up like her dad so this command story is not my cup of tea.

I guess I’m odd one out because IDGAF about Mellies kids. Like they aren’t even side characters, she’s POTUS, it’s safe to assume they are at school of with nannies.

I also DGAF about Mellie’s kids but honestly I’m having a hard time GAF about anyone - besides maybe Charlie.
I’m only halfway through this last episode but did Olivia’s kill Quinn or make her disappear. Her voicemail to her seemed awfully contrived.
Add me to the hate Olivia this season. I only want to watch because it’s the last season.

It's like a true evolution of her character and she's been slowly growing and changing over the seasons. It would have been very boring if she'd continued to be the morally superior white knight for 6 years

Curtis Pryce, and then Jake threatening Cyrus... ugh they are ruthless. So many people are dying on her watch.
