Absoluetly loved this! Olivia Pope is outstanding - all really good characters & loved the story-lines. Shonda at her best writing! Loved the character Hawk too - so much turmoil to him! Brilliant!!

I watched the first two seasons with my husband & we both thoroughly enjoyed it. The writing & characters were excellent. Then Netflix took over season 3 & not only did the writing go downhill but all the characters personalities had completely changed! Not for better either! The first episode was full of the F word!! It continued in the next 2 episodes, completely spoiling it! They were using F where it wasn't neccesary & in episode 4 when we saw the President sitting on the toilet with his trousers round his ankles swearing at a rubik's cube - well, that was last straw for us & we switched off. Now don't get me wrong - I can swear as well as anyone else can & yes, you do hear it in real life all the time, but this is entertainment & there hadn't been any of that in previous episodes so why change it? Netflix you don't need to have bad language in a good & powerful drama. You just cheapened it!
