Review of Scandal

Scandal (2012–2018)
3/10
SEASON ONE WAS ENOUGH
26 June 2024
On someones recommendation (and after enjoying The Good Wife and The West Wing), I wanted to enjoy another 7 seasoner. Oh dear, I realised 15 minutes into episode 1 that I wasn't going to see the end of the lengthy run.

From the outset, the dialogue was too fast (good job I had subtitles on), the camera shots were too fast paced, and the incessant background music was over whelming.

I don't mind watching with no recognisable names, although I had seen Tony Goldwyn and Josh Melina in other productions, and they were good, but I thought the character of Quinn was ludicrously stupid, and i wouldn't have employed her to make the tea, and the actress playing her was pretty rubbish at acting too.

I didn't connect with this drama, as the storylines were far fetched and ridiculous, so I checked online as to the rest of the Seasons, and so couldn't invest the time. Season one was enough for me.
