No one says no to Olivia Pope. Well not quite true, I do. It's annoying to be told over and over how darned powerful and amazing she is.
I love the concept, i'm prepared to love Kerry Washington. But as it stands so far the Olivia pope posse is so full of themselves. Unsubtle and frankly, dull.
Surely there's way to demonstrate her power and talent other ways than having her declaim it constantly for herself?
The writing is sluggish, lumpen. The main characters seem smug.
Also very disappointed in Kerry Washington. Perhaps it's bad direction but she's so awful it's almost fun to watch her she is so bad. It's as if she has her acting volume wedged at 8 through out every episode I have watched so far. It's never fair to compare an actor to Meryl Streep but never mind, here I go. Her interpretation of women in power is so much more compelling and interesting (Margaret Thatcher & The Devil Wears Prada).
Altogether a pretty poor showing thus far (and I have seen 3 episodes).
