Reminds me of Nazi propaganda... (Dirty ...)
A network series about Trump?
Sheeesh! How quickly did they greenlight THAT and get it into production?
Have Hollywood idiots ever come out with a show which spoofs Obama???
Goebbels ghost is smiling in the lowest levels of hell knowing his work continues to this day.
Scandal has been around for a while. I watched the pilot and was done with it. A once in a lifetime experience.
Ever notice that most of the white kids on the Cosby show were fat and lazy?
Years ago....Daffy Duck

Sounds like abc is pimping racism and bigotry again.
My wife watches every Shondra Rhimes show religiously. Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, How To Get Away With Murder. Awful, preposterous, propagandistic dreck each and every one. Thank God I don’t watch much TV.
Like The Donald, Mr. Jefferson was called by one author of a great book in my library “The Magnificent Populist” who trusted the common sense of the PEOPLE — mainly those in the rural areas — over those who were beginning to congregate in the cities. He stated his opinions on that a number of times. Some of them follow.
An astute student of history and human nature, Thomas Jefferson, predicted what we see happening here in America. While a strong case can be made that the French aristocracy brought it upon themselves, as ambassador in France, he witnessed the run up to the FIRST socialist/communist revolution there. He penned the following observations concerning what would happen HERE should that socialism come to the United States. He CORRECTLY predicted that we would become an increasingly contentious and litigious people as we shouldered one another out of the way to get OURS from the public trough and the trough would soon be empty.
He also knew where the bulk of the problem would originate.
That whirring noise you may hear coming from that mountain in Charlottesville, Virginia is Mr. Jefferson getting up to around 3600 RPM.

As I understand it, at the time of the drafting of the Declaration, Mr. Jefferson originally wrote “…Life, Liberty and PROPERTY…” (meaning that one’s right to freely acquire, use and dispose of his property – to the extent doing so did not violate the same to others – was a Creator endowed right. Because slavery viewed humans as property, the phrase “Pursuit of Happiness” was adopted instead to avoid – at least for the time being — the inevitable debate on that subject.
“The mobs of the great cities add just so much to the support of pure government as sores do to the strength of the human body. It is the manners and spirit of a people which preserve a republic in vigor. A degeneracy in these is a canker which soon eats to the heart of its laws and constitution.” —Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia Q.XIX, 1782. ME 2:230
“I think our governments will remain virtuous for many centuries as long as they are chiefly agricultural; and this will be as long as there shall be vacant lands in any part of America. When they get piled upon one another in large cities as in Europe, they will become corrupt as in Europe.” —Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1787. Papers 12:442
“I view great cities as pestilential to the morals, the health and the liberties of man. True, they nourish some of the elegant arts; but the useful ones can thrive elsewhere; and less perfection in the others, with more health, virtue and freedom, would be my choice.” —Thomas Jefferson to Benjamin Rush, 1800. ME 10:173
“Our cities... exhibit specimens of London only; our country is a different nation.” —Thomas Jefferson to Andre de Daschkoff, 1809. ME 12:304
“Everyone, by his property or by his satisfactory situation, is interested in the support of law and order. And such men may safely and advantageously reserve to themselves a wholesome control over their public affairs and a degree of freedom which, in the hands of the canaille of the cities of Europe, would be instantly perverted to the demolition and destruction of everything public and private.” —Thomas Jefferson to John Adams, 1813. ME 13:401
“An insurrection... of science, talents, and courage, against rank and birth... has failed in its first effort, because the mobs of the cities, the instrument used for its accomplishment, debased by ignorance, poverty, and vice, could not be restrained to rational action. But the world will recover from the panic of this first catastrophe.” —Thomas Jefferson to John Adams, 1813. ME 13:402
“I fear nothing for our liberty from the assaults of force; but I have seen and felt much, and fear more from English books, English prejudices, English manners, and the apes, the dupes, and designs among our professional crafts. When I look around me for security against these seductions, I find it in the wide spread of our agricultural citizens, in their unsophisticated minds, their independence and their power, if called on, to crush the Humists of our cities, and to maintain the principles which severed us from England.” —Thomas Jefferson to Horatio G. Spafford, 1814. ME 14:120
“Have Hollywood idiots ever come out with a show which spoofs Obama?”
Yeah, but they call it ‘News’ and the satire is entirely unintentional.
That would be me. Not likely to get familiar with it either or Shonda Rhimes.
Haven’t watched network TV since 1992!!!!
Why is this new? It will follow the Wanda Sykes show, the Nikki Glazer show, the (fat blond comedian who I forget right now- Amy-?) show, yadda, yadda, yadda.....
I have absolutely no idea who Shonda Rhimes is, and while I have seen a few episodes of “Scandal” with Kerry Washington, I never once bought into the sexy alluring Helen of Troy siren who could bring down countries and governments meme. Ludicrous.
“Have Hollywood idiots ever come out with a show which spoofs Obama???”
Monkey Planet ?
I watch the old shows on the retro channels.
Ratings are down big this season and it's listed as one of the shows that needs "fixing" although it's been renewed.
