Series Finale Who Goes Over a Cliff With Olivia To Save the Country?

This is it, the series finale of Scandal and the question on everyone's mind is, what happens now that the country knows about B613? In "Over a Cliff," Olivia and her friends testify before a committee about the existence of B613 and the horrible things that they've done or been a part of.

Standing in the Sun

5 Reasons the 'Scandal' Series Finale Fell Flat

Scandal was a series that always had twists and turns and kept viewers on the edge of their seats. I joined the Scandal bandwagon in season 3 and I eagerly binge-watched every episode to catch up because it was that good. Season 7 of Scandal and the series finale fell sort of flat though. I am disappointed with how rushed the finale felt to wrap up everything, and then was left wanting a little bit more in the possible glimpse into the future. Here are five reasons I feel the more

Shonda Rhimes Explains Why the Big Death in the 'Scandal' Series Finale Was Necessary

The Scandal series finale wasn't the bloody affair it could've been. For the most part, Scandal ended on a happy note with the most hardened villains defeated and the heroes, or at least kind of heroes, getting their happily ever after. Yet the finale wasn't kind to everyone. David Rosen, who was the last true beacon of morality and justice on Scandal, was killed ... more
