The season 4 finale of ‘Scandal’ was riveting from beginning to end. The fates of many characters were left unknown, and Olivia finally made her choice between Jake and Fitz once and for all.
Raise your hand if you’re still catching your breath from the Scandal season finale? Everyone? OK, cool. On the May 14 finale, Olivia (Kerry Washington) and the Gladiators took one last chance at taking down Command, someone major got fired, Huck (Guillermo Diaz) and Quinn (Katie Lowes) had an intense showdown and Olivia decided who she wanted to be with forever. Was it Jake (Scott Foley) or Fitz (Tony Goldwyn)?

The penultimate episode of ‘Scandal’ season 4 was downright crazy. A major component of Operation Foxtail was revealed, and Rowan saved one of his biggest shockers for the May 7 episode.
It’s down to the final two episodes of the season for Scandal, and the tension is rising. The season 4 finale is going to be crazy just like every other year, and the May 7 episode set it up quite nicely. Mellie (Bellamy Young) made her final bid for senate, Huckleberry Quinn (Guillermo Diaz & Katie Lowes) interrogated the mess out of Russell (Brian White), Jake (Scott Foley) and Russell actually bonded and details about Operation Foxtail were revealed!

Who else is still trying to process that final scene? Everyone? OK. One of the most beloved ‘Scandal’ characters met a grim fate. Cue all the tears.
Gladiators across the globe are going to need a minute. The April 16 episode of Scandal was straight-up bonkers. Olivia (Kerry Washington) and her crew vowed to take down Rowan (Joe Morton) and B613, Susan Ross (Artemis Pebdani) proved to be one heck of a powerhouse and a fan-favorite character was brutally killed in the show’s final moments (or so it seems)!

The March 26 episode of ‘Scandal’ featured a quickie wedding and an epic revelation about Olitz we’ve been waiting seasons to find out.
Shonda Rhimes wanted her Gladiators to cry puddles of tears during the March 26 episode of Scandal. Cyrus (Jeff Perry) and Michael (Matthew Del Negro) rushed to the altar, we got a glimpse into Cyrus’ shocking past and a pivotal Olivia (Kerry Washington) and Fitz (Tony Goldwyn) moment we’ve all been wondering about since day one was finally brought to light.

Olivia tried to move on from the past on the March 12 episode of ‘Scandal,’ but it was Huck who made the most progress.
Scandal has a way of shocking you when you least expect it. On the March 12 episode, we finally learned more about Huck’s (Guillermo Diaz) past, Susan Ross struggled with her new role and Olivia (Kerry Washington) made a decision regarding her life and how she was going to move forward after that traumatic kidnapping.

That. Was. Incredible. The Feb. 19 episode of ‘Scandal’ shocked every Gladiator to the core. The last person you expected saved Olivia, and it was glorious.
Bless you, Shonda Rhimes. The Feb. 19 episode of Scandal was everything and more. Olivia (Kerry Washington) was finally rescued, a fan-favorite character made a shocking return and Abby (Darby Stanchfield) proved that once a Gladiator, always a Gladiator.

Many, many people bid for Olivia Pope’s life on the Feb. 12 episode of ‘Scandal’, but only one buyer walked away the winner of the love of Fitz’s life.
Scandal sure knows how to end an episode with a cliffhanger! On the Feb. 12 episode, Olivia (Kerry Washington) was sold and became a bigger pawn in an even deadlier game, Huck (Guillermo Diaz) started to unravel (again) and Mellie (Bellamy Young) had to handle a serious problem that could have potentially marred her perfect image.

The drama almost got too intense for words on the Oct. 23 episode of ‘Scandal.’ Poor Jake was on the receiving end of a lot of brutal accusations and punches. Can’t this guy catch a break?
Just when you think you know what’s going to go down on Scandal, the show goes and turns everything upside down. On the Oct. 23 episode, Jake (Scott Foley) was interrogated about Jerry’s murder, Rowan (Joe Morton) managed to totally manipulate Olivia (Kerry Washington), Huck’s (Guillermo Diaz) heartbreaking attempt to get back to his family goes awry and Mellie (Bellamy Young) reached a whole new level of crazy.

Thank god it’s Thursday! The Oct. 16 episode of ‘Scandal’ featured another huge scandal for Fitz. Plus, Olitz goodness (and heartbreak).
This is the Scandal we all know and love. The Oct. 16 episode of the political drama didn’t hold back on the shockers. Karen Grant (Mary Mouser) resurfaced, Rowan (Joe Morton) gained the upper hand on Jake (Scott Foley) and Olivia (Kerry Washington) and Fitz (Tony Goldwyn) shared one intense moment. (Seriously, we’re still recovering.)

Happy ‘Scandal’ Thursday! Olivia Pope made her return to Washington D.C. in the season four premiere, but she wasn’t met with the warmest welcome. Plus, what happened to Harrison?
Scandal is back! The highly-anticipated fourth season premiered on Sept. 25, and we didn’t see any of the twists and turns coming. Olivia (Kerry Washington) returned to Washington, Fitz (Tony Goldwyn) and Mellie (Bellamy Young) continued to grieve Jerry’s death in unexpected ways, we found out how the rest of the Gladiators coped with Olivia’s absence, and we finally learned what happened to Harrison (Columbus Short). Let’s handle this recap!

Goodbye, Harrison! Actor Columbus Short has been fired from ‘Scandal’, in light of his real life scandals. The news comes after Columbus was charged with battery for allegedly attacking and threatening to kill his wife.
This is one scandalous story that Shonda Rhimes did not write — Columbus Short, who stars as Harrison Wright on ABC’s hit drama Scandal, has officially been fired from the series, after making real-life headlines for domestic violence. Keep reading for all of the breaking details, plus Columbus’s emotional statement.

Whoa, Gladiators. Have you caught your breath after that crazy ‘Scandal’ finale? The April 17 Season 3 ender dropped twist after twist, leading up to far too many cliffhangers.
Now that’s how you end a season. The April 17 finale of Scandal was pure craziness. In the midst of Fitz’s (Tony Goldwyn) re-election, there was a devastating death, major revelations and one character of OPA left Washington for good!

Last night’s Scandal episode killed off a major character, and successfully killed all of our emotions. Keep reading to see the actor’s reaction to his shocking death.
It’s hard to believe that one of our favorite characters has left the White House for good, after being murdered on last night’s March 20 episode of Scandal. And guess what? He can’t believe it either! The actor speaks out about his shocking send-off, and let’s just say, he was not expecting it.

After a week of speculation, the March 20 episode of ‘Scandal’ revealed who got shot — and it was absolutely heartbreaking.
The March 20 episode of Scandal was one accompanied by lots of tears. A beloved character met their end and sent all of Washington into a tailspin. Plus, a shocking, steamy make-out and the return of Mama Pope (Khandi Alexander)!

This flawless hour of television couldn’t have come at a better time. People, this is why Kerry Washington is swimming in nominations.
If last week’s episode of Scandal was considered ‘intense,’ the Dec. 12 conclusion of the midseason finale was a non-stop barrage of heart attacks from which we shall never recover. Not only did we learn the truth about Olivia’s (Kerry Washington) mom, but the fall-out from Daniel’s murder was insane, and some major shifts in power completely changed the way this game is going to be played form now on.

This is perhaps the most gripping ‘Scandal’ episode of the season, with non-stop twists and turns — including the creepiest lick ever!
Between Olivia Pope’s (Kerry Washington) family crisis of epic proportions, a ton of torture, a shocking murder, and some scandalous sex photos, this week episode had us on the edge of our seats!
