TV is just no good anymore

I'm canceling Scandal from my DVR schedule. I hate the characters. All Kerry Washington does is yell orders into a phone. The script is too Sorkin-esque. It has to die. This sh*t is why people watch reality TV. Homeland and Cupcake Wars all the way.

Was so blue and stressed yesterday I bought my 4th ticket to see Jersey Boys. Dish has to check out the new cast. Jarrod Spector is such an awesome Frankie. As I blasted the soundtrack, it became evident that I experienced The Four Seasons in another life or they've become my new Duran Duran while the band is on hiatus. What's the truth? I need Shirley MacLaine and John Edward, STAT!!! 

TG yelled at me for hovering while he got ready for work. I'm passive aggressively soaking my rings in salt water. And then I'm ironing a messy double-crease on his pants!!!

Scandal Is FANTASTIC!!!!!!! Kerry Washington is so wonderful as Olivia Pope. I'm actually a bit surprised that you're not getting that the screams are to mask how truly vulnerable and weak she really is. I find the show extremely entertaining & layered with thought provoking angles...
Have you ever seen Ms. Washington on an interview or on Bill Maher? She is so educated & articulate that it makes her about the sexiest woman alive...

I must agree to disagree. I think it's turned into a stinky and derivative show. The plots are now repetitive, repetitive. Kerry does play that role well but it's a one-note character. No humor and I so don't believe she's vulnerable or weak. I've seen K.W. in interviews and she's very smart and talented. I just wish she had better material to work with.
