I wear the white hat...
Is anyone watching Scandal? And if so, can you please explain to me the Cult of Olivia Pope?
Like, it's a pretty decent show, I'm enjoying it, although I don't necessarily dig the whole conspiracy theory turn it's taken this season - even though I kind of really want to know what the deal is with Quinn - but I don't understand why Olivia is such an apparently magnetic personality.
I like her, I think she's smart and honorable and she does what's right (within the structure of her own slightly skewed moral system, but I mean, she's consistent) and very pretty and she cares a lot about apparently everyone. But I don't think she would be a person who would inspire me to go to war for her, you know? She doesn't make me want to be a gladiator on her behalf, and it falls a little flat to me when that's the effect she has on everyone around her.
It might just be slightly below par writing... It's not the best written thing on television for sure, and there is a little too much melodrama for my liking, it's not healthy for a person to go through life as almost constantly on the edge of crying as she does...so maybe that's why it just doesn't really ring true for me, but it is disappointing when something that is so integral to the show is the one thing I just don't really believe.
I do love how crumpled and lovely and down the line David Rosen is, I could hug him all day. And I adore Huck! And I like Quinn a lot. Still, the show could definitely use a joke every once in a while!
Also, it's been a while, does anyone feel like a catch-up question meme? Comment to this post and I will ask you a question that you do not expect to be asked. Alternatively, you can ask me questions.
