Anybody watch this? I can't believe that's who got shot!!

I loved James' character and was not expecting that.

It is the only tv I watch... 1 hr a week. I loved the scene where they all bust in to O's office wanting her to help them fix the issues.

We were hoping it was a random other person who got shot. I can't believe they killed him off. And I love Jake, but I hate that he has to do bad things now.

I love this show! And I totally just spoiled it for myself by reading this thread...I guess I was hoping David was the one. But honestly with everything that's been going on with James and Cyrus...it makes sense. Now the question is, what becomes of the whole situation since David obviously saw Jake's face? I don't know, I didn't see the episode last night but just remember that Jake clearly walked up to them, pointing a gun.

Sorry - I should have posted a spoiler warning! I didn't put it in the first post since that's easier to see than the rest of the thread. They work out the deal with David. I really liked them both and didn't want it to be either of them. The very end was so sad!

yeah whoops on reading this thread before watching the ep... But honestly I'm beginning to get annoyed with the show. I miss the original premise of the show in which the gladiators fixed different scandals each week. The show should just be call corruption now because its just gone off track about the presidency and the white house. But that's just IMHO

Me too! I don't mind the recurring stories, but it'd be nice if at least occasionally they worked on the other scandals each week.

I totally agree, L.Jane. When I was watching the first two seasons on Netflix (didn't start until way after it had started) I LOVED it. I thought it was great. I'm still watching, though less intently. I sort of half-watch like I do Grey's...put it on while I browse Reddit or the interwebs. I enjoy both, they've just lost a little bit of their luster for me. Also...I hate to say it, but Kerry Washington's trembling/pouty/twitching lips and facial expressions really get me. And her stuff with Fitz seems to be the same thing over and over again, though I do love them together. I don't know.

Overall, if you've been a Grey's Anatomy fan, you can definitely tell Scandal is a Shonda Rhimes show. Completely unrealistic soliloquies that are recited at unnaturally fast paces.

[Chrisada]

Agree. Also miss the scandals separate from all the White House stuff.

DH and I used to be HUGE Scandal fans (and we still sorta are), but then we started watching House of Cards on Netflix and I feel like it's hard to go back to Scandal after that.

I also think the way they have to shoot this whole season from the neck up with Kerry Washington (to avoid showing her pregnancy) is annoying. Her awesome clothes used to be part of the fun.
