When Is The Next Episode Of Scandal Coming On

Okay, let's be real. We've all been there. You're scrolling through your streaming services, that Scandal itch starts to creep in. You need your fix of Olivia Pope, but a question pops into your head:
Wait... When's the Next Episode of Scandal Coming On?!
Yeah, about that... Prepare yourself, because the answer might sting a little.
Ready? There isn't one. I know, I know. It's tough to hear.
Must Read
But hey, maybe this is a good thing? Remember how bonkers things got? Each season brought new level of craziness.
Let's Talk About It: No New Scandal. Ever.
Scandal officially ended its run on April 19, 2018. Five years, gone in a flash.
It feels like just yesterday we were all glued to our TVs, yelling at Fitz through the screen. Good times!
I know, it’s sad. But hey, at least we have seven seasons to rewatch, right?

Or…hear me out…maybe this is a blessing in disguise. Think about it.
The storylines were getting... complicated. Like, really complicated. Was anyone actually following the B613 plots after a while? I confess I wasn't.
Here's my unpopular opinion: Scandal peaked around season 3. Fight me in the comments!
I mean, don't get me wrong, I loved the show. I'm just saying... they should have stopped earlier.
What to Do With Your Scandal-Shaped Hole in Your Heart
So, what are we supposed to do now? I mean, other than rewatch old episodes for the millionth time.

Well, you could try another Shonda Rhimes masterpiece. Grey's Anatomy? How to Get Away with Murder?
Or, branch out! There are tons of political dramas out there.
Maybe you need to watch The West Wing. Or, if you’re feeling something totally different, try Veep for the comedy.
If you liked the intense twists and turns of Scandal, maybe you’d like shows like Homeland, or Designated Survivor.

Acceptance: The Final Stage of Scandal Grief
Ultimately, we all have to accept that there won't be a new episode of Scandal. It’s hard.
But remember the good times. The white hats, the red wine, the intense stares. It was an experience.
And who knows? Maybe one day, Shonda Rhimes will grace us with a reboot.
We can always dream. So, rewatch the early seasons, tell yourself it's for "research," and remember the glory days.
And hey, if you find a show that fills the Olivia Pope-sized hole in your heart, let me know! I'm always looking for something new to binge-watch.

Because let's face it, we're all just trying to find the next Scandal. Wish us luck!
Now go forth and rewatch Scandal from the beginning! You know you want to.
And when you get to season 7 and are rolling your eyes at the plot, just remember what I said. You can always stop and start again at season 3. It's a valid strategy.
After all, as Olivia Pope herself might say: "It's handled." Or, in this case, "It's over. But we can rewatch it."
