Are You Ready for Scandal's Third Season Finale?

Even after binge watching the first two seasons of ABC's mega-hit series, Scandal, we didn't join the Gladiator nation. Blasphemy! While we found some of the characters compelling--namely Olivia's devious Dad (given gravitas by master thespian Joe Morton), the conniving Cyrus, the fiery First Lady and that cute double-agent Jake (we've been fans of Scott Foley since his Felicity days)--we can't take much more of Olivia and Fitz's melodramatic, torrid love affair.


But we hate to be left out of a pop culture moment, and plan to catch the third season on demand. So we'll miss tonight's scandalous season finale, but millions of diehard fans will be hanging on every dramatic line that falls from Kerry Washington's ever-pouted, quivering lips. As you watch, in true Olivia Pope fashion, we're sure there will be no shortage of red, red wine.  That's one thing that fascinates us about Ms. Pope -- how can she down a bottle of vino every night and still look flawless in the morning?

Although we have mixed feelings about the show, we love the elegant, long stemmed wine glasses Olivia favors and tracked them down at Crate & Barrel.  They're called Camille Wine Glasses, and they retail for $14.95 each.
