Storyline:
When you get into trouble there's only one person to call, Olivia Pope.
Olivia is a professional 'fixer' who makes problems go away before
anyone even knows they exist. For the moneyed, the powerful and even the
President, Olivia is a legend in her field. Her spectacular success is
mostly due to her unbreakable rule of always trust your gut. No matter
how careful you are, when you do damage control for a living, you're
bound to cause some damage to your own life. She and her crew eat,
sleep, live and breathe crisis. Each week, as the team races against the
clock to defuse intriguing new problems before they become full-blown
disasters, they also have to deal with their own personal issues. They
may call themselves 'gladiators in suits', but little by little, Olivia
and her crew begin to reveal the chinks in their armor.
Movie Reviews:
AWESOME and awe
inspiring main character (I mean Kerry Washington, who should be listed
in the top 3 on IMDb title page for the show, not at #8!!) Oliva Pope,
who is confident, strong,"legendary" and knows the ins-and-outs of D.C.
political power brokers. Snappy fast-paced dialogue, intense story lines
and soap elements intertwined with political intrigue. Main plot points
were engaging and not always foreseen, which in storytelling, is a very
good thing. Pilot shows a lot of potential to be a great can't-miss
show. This should be another big hit for Shonda Rhimes, if ABC commits
to it and doesn't continuously pre-empt it. Shonda Rhimes scores big
again! Yeah Rhimes!Keep it coming!!
