Scandal S-3 Ep.9 YOLO. (More Like WTF?!!)
“Liv seems smaller, slower. It’s not like Liv.” This statement from Huck typifies this episode because Olivia falls one step behind and she realises things a moment too late. Back in the day, Olivia Pope would’ve been on it like white on rice… From the top- Quinn is getting the Huck friends and family discount…

Scandal S-3 Ep 8. Vermont Is For Lovers Too. Mmm Hm.
Papa Pope and Mama Pope do not share a cosy relationship, that much is obvious but it further solidifies the theory that Mama Pope is not going to win “mommy of the year” award anytime soon. At a point in their relationship they cared about each other and they obviously love their daughter. When it…

Scandal S3 Ep.7- Everything’s Coming Up Mellie.
OMG!! I AM STILL NOT BREATHING. We were forewarned that this particular episode would be a doozy so we should’ve been forearmed, you know that saying. I tried to prepare, I bought a fabulous bottle of wine and popcorn, ready for whatever Shonda and her team had to throw at me. I thought I was…

Downton-The Season Finale
Dowton departed and left us with a lovely sigh. Until the Christmas special that is.

Downton Abbey S.4 Ep-7
Well his Lordship has been summoned to America by his mother-in-law to help this mysterious Uncle Howard out of some bother or the other, so we had little to do with him this episode. Or was it the plot of the writers to rid us of Thomas and his one track scheming mind this week?…

Downton Abbey S4 Ep-6
Oh Downton, sweet Downton…this is the stuff we love you for- the modern world throwing the Abbey in disarray, Lady Edith sulking, hearts broken, Grandmamas up in arms over trivial affairs of great importance, Carson confronting the challenges of the new world; a black man…it was all jolly well good and jolly well Downton. The…

Scandal. S.3 Ep.4- Say Hello To My Little Friend
I’ll be honest, this was not the most thrilling episode of the season so far, but funny enough I found myself drawn into the story, maybe its because it takes us away from the Liv Fitz dynamic which I have grown out of, but even when its less than thrilling Scandal has something over and…
