[NivekJ]

This show is like AMC's "Talking Dead" but actually useful! Can't wait for ep. 2!

[Dansea]

I actually see Harrison & Quinn getting together in the future. Abby at first annoyed me because she is so quick to judge but she definitely seems to have a heart of gold and I am interested in seeing more about her and Stephen because its obvious she feels something towards him.I do find Abby to be hilarious with all her witty and sarcastic remarks.I'm loving Olivia&Fitz.I actually loved the soldier story arc.It was important to tell that story.Good job writers and Shonda Rimes!

[thewoodyman]

new blood welcome Emily Ennis Jr. hope you do a great job talking about this awesome show

[paige]

Love this show! Have to disagree with you re Liv and Prez. Though quite complicated, I believe Fitz LOVES Liv; so much so that he kept this secret from anyone, even Cyrus, who he tells everything to. He doesn't have much secracy being POTUS, but what he values and can keep close to him, he will. He does this with Livie's love! Bottom line, these characters are layered - love it!!! Can't wait to see the reveal!

[spicypink]

Your predictions were just plain terrible! Do not go to Vegas!

[bella]

I love the black guy. The chick on the phone is annoying and needs to stop talking so much.

[airborne]

Bam should shave his face because he lost the bet, lol

[beliskner]

ow how wrong that girl was lol and Fitz is NOT creepy

[Dansea]

I totally disagree with Mari's description of the President.I thinks there are more layers to the character that needs to be taken in to consideration and the following episodes display his layers. He at his core seems to be a genuinely good person whose made a ton mistakes and probably will continue to make more.His position as "The President of the United States" holds a lot of responsibility and expectations and he is struggling to be THE PRESIDENT and also BE WITH the love of his life.
