Scandal Premiere: 6 Rules of Engagement

09/25/14 | Entertainment

Scandal premieres tonight. An hour earlier than before. If you don’t know about the show then I suggest you head on over and let Luvvie bring you up to speed (she’s the goddess of all things recapish as it pertains to Scandal).

This post is short and sweet. I would like to humbly speak for ALL female Scandal watchers.

Here are the rules of engagement for Thursday nights from the hours of 9:00 p.m. – 11:00 p.m. (because I suspect this will be my “watch TV” night and I’m putting it out into the universe that How to Get Away With Murder is gonna rock my socks).

 Scandal_Watching

  • If you have never watched the show, acquaint yourself with Google and Netflix and catch up. Do not ask us for a recap. All you will get is a side eye/side mouth convo with a right-sided neck twist.
  • Unless someone is very ill/almost dying and we can literally save their lives, don’t call us. No sense in messing up all of our 9 o’clock hour.
  • Men: if, during this season, a time comes when we are sitting on the couch watching the show, this is NOT the time to attempt to hug, kiss or talk. Save that for later lest we decide to do the same during your team’s football game. (unless you’re Jake and then we can negotiate this stance)
  • Talking is not really allowed. However, Facebook and Twitter posts are encouraged. If you want to talk, here is a list of approved phrases:
    • Oh damn!
    • WTF?!
    • Awww hell naw!
    • Did…did…did that just happen?!
    • BAM!
    • Oh yeah!
    • Uh huh!!!
    • GET IT GURL!
    • GEEEZUS!
    • Ohmaigaah!
    • YASSSSSS!
    • Wellllllll (in a preacher’s tone)
    • Awww shiiiiittttt!
    • What in the hell?!?
    • Tweet that! Tweet that!
    • Shonda! You killin’ me!
  • The above phrases are usually accompanied by standing up and falling out on the couch, shoulder shimmies, hand clapping, roof-raising or any other scandaly acceptable behavior that would suggest you are totally feeling the phrases above.
  • Drinking is usually required during these shows due to their intensity. If you are coming over to watch this show, please be sure to have a Koonunga Hill Penfolds shiraz tucked away in your bag. Failing that, bring over the appropriate ingredients to make yourself a Scandalous Cinnamon Delight.

Please follow these rules because you might get hurt if you disturb the gladiators in action (and by action I mean watching the show). I don’t want that to happen especially because I haven’t yet set up the GoFundMe for gladiator bail money.

I’m excited about the premiere. But you know why I think everyone is extra excited? Because we get to interact with one another (whether in real life or on social media). We get into it, we make each other laugh, we reconnect. We forget about the real world for an hour and enjoy the genius that is Shondaland!

Will you be watching? What did I forget from the list?

  • Sitting, praying, studying. And deeply understanding that this is how it has been. But I'm also understanding that, now more than ever, this is how it will always be. #MaferefunOya #IyawoChronicles
  • Do you know I have a slight #FunkoPop obsession? And @the_pop_lady is one of my faves! I've been living vicariously through her at @toyfair_ny.

I'm super happy that she got to go! Then! I see she has this  #ThePOPLadyGiveaway and I'm like OHHHHH! Let me bring this #FunkoGiveaway home! #putitintheuniverse
  • Who is going to this! I demand one of you does so I can live vicariously through you! And...GO!

  • #TBT to when I got my first taste of purple. Get ready because the purple might make a comeback in 2020. Ima need @crownpaint_colors to make a 20lb jar for me...lol 😁 #PurpleHair
  • The Frog Princess loves crystals. She's had the 2 hearts tucked under her pillow these last 2 days she's been under the weather.  I'd been holding on to the hematite for a minute and just gave it to her.

Whenever I used to travel west, I would find crystal hearts at the airports. It became a thing for a while. Since then, we've upgraded to our crystal dealer, @homegirlporvida. I've tasked baby girl with taking inventory of her crystals while she is home with the flu to give us something fun and creative to focus on. Here's hoping for a super speedy recovery. #putitintheuniverse #FrogPrincess #MagicalGirl
  • This is not a drill! Baby girl has the flu. 😷

Time to grab chicken soup ingredients, more honey for my aloe concoction, ice cream for my immune system and the Tamiflu script. 🎶Just another day, living I'm the 'hood. Just another day around the way.🎵 #Mamihood
