Jaby and Brandon return to the Oval Office for season 2 of Scandal, the explosive year that cemented the show as a pop-culture phenomenon. This season raises the stakes from "fixer of the week" to a massive national conspiracy as Olivia Pope and her gladiators deal with the fallout of the Defiance election-rigging scandal and a shocking assassination attempt on President Fitz. Our hosts react to the introduction of the mysterious Jake Ballard, the terrifying reveal of Huck’s dark past with B613, and the ultimate "who is the mole" mystery. Jaby and Brandon break down the toxic but magnetic chemistry between Olivia and Fitz, Mellie’s ruthless power moves, and that legendary Season 2 finale cliffhanger that changed the show forever.
The series was created by Shonda Rhimes (Grey's Anatomy, Bridgerton, Queen Charlotte, Inventing Anna, Private Practice) and stars Kerry Washington (Django Unchained, Little Fires Everywhere, Marvel's Fantastic Four, Save the Last Dance, Ray), Tony Goldwyn (Ghost, Oppenheimer, Law & Order, Disney's Tarzan, Divergent), and Bellamy Young (Prodigal Son, A Wrinkle in Time, Mission: Impossible III, Scrubs). The Season 2 cast also features Scott Foley (Scream 3, Felicity, Grey's Anatomy, Whiskey Cavalier, True Blood), Guillermo Díaz (Weeds, Half Baked, Chappelle's Show, Law & Order: Organized Crime), Katie Lowes (Inventing Anna, Zootopia, Big Hero 6, Wreck-It Ralph), Joshua Malina (The West Wing, Sports Night, The Big Bang Theory, Shameless), and Jeff Perry (Grey's Anatomy, The Dropout, Wild Things, Nash Bridges). Joining the recurring cast is Joe Morton (Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Zack Snyder's Justice League, Speed, Eureka) as the formidable Rowan Pope, along with Dan Bucatinsky (The Comeback, 24: Legacy, Air, Will & Grace).
