Olivia you better go claim your man


The FBI director is making a claim fot Fitz. Mellie is in love and you kicked your man to the curb. You are getting exactly what you deserve.

Liv will never be happy with anyone.

Liv seems incapable of loving a good man.

It's crazy how she chases the one that treats her like $hit but the ones that literally worship her mere existence, she's disgusted by.

I think Olivia Pope is incapable of love PERIOD.

You're right. Liv is getting what she deserves. I hope the FBI Director has Fitz right there in the Oval Office...I don't feel sorry for Liv - she had it all and threw it all away...silly woman.

By the end of the season she'll be in his arms once again.

I used to root for Olivia.

But, her character, IMHO, is beyond repair.

She's broken...and broken badly. She is incapable of love. She loves drama/dysfunction, and thrives off of it, both professionally and personally.

Watching her face last night, When Mellie told her what a good lover Marcus was, and how she was likely in love with him, was priceless. You could see the jealousy written all over her face. Despite Mellie's issues, she's capable of love and of giving it. Olivia is not. This is why I suspect she intentionally tried to sabotage Mellie/Marcus by telling Mellie that Marcus is essentially a political climber. She was wrong for that.

I hate Olivia.

I'm ready for this show to end. She's lost her flare. And when no one wants to root for the protagonist, it's a sign that things will only go downward.

I don't know you but I swear you have just typed every word that I feel. I have watched this show from the beginning. I loved Olivia Pope and now I think she is the worst. Its strange to watch a show and not like the main character

I agree w/all the post about Olivia Pope; she's really a harsh b**ch for saying that to Mellie about Marcus, its b/c she is so *beep* jealous. We also have to think of the craziness that Olivia has running thru her veins, I mean her parents are crazy as HELL !! I was hoping Olivia would be different, but she is just damaged goods and needs to change b/c right now I can't stand her character at all - even her employers don't know WTF to think of her anymore they just STH b/c Olivia is so freaking unpredictable now and isn't acting like the person she was in season 1 or even 2. I don't recognize Olivia anymore, she's a gone pecan!!!

I feel the exact same way. She's very difficult to root for. On a positive note, Kerry Washington is doing a terrific job making us dislike her.
