*“Scandal” fans are furious about ABC’s consistent inconsistency with the show.
If you haven’t noticed, the network has this strange pattern of airing new episodes and then putting the show on hiatus for a few weeks.
Recently, it was on a 3-week break, which meant reruns for a little while, driving die-hard fans crazy.
So, the lack of regularity inspired one fan to start a petition on Change.org to let the execs at ABC know the fans don’t appreciate their recent decisions.
T.R. Mason writes in the petition:
There are very few TV shows on prime time television written by, much less starring people of color. The broadcast networks have made great strides in recent years by diversifying the faces we see on prime time TV however there is more that can be done. Putting a show like Scandal on repeated hiatus is a surefire way to lose fans and viewers. Gladiators/Scandalistas/Scandalists everywhere have not gotten over our initial shock that there will be no Scandal AGAIN for 3 more weeks. Instead of whining and complaining, we are doing something about it! Shonda Rhimes is NOT the reason there’s another hiatus. It’s the TV execs at Disney/ABC Television Group. Let your voices and displeasure be heard by contacting Anne Sweeney, the President of ABC Entertainment [...] Or send her a nice little profanity free email at [email protected]. Let her know how unhappy we all are and maybe, just maybe they’ll pick up enough episodes that we Gladiators won’t have to be on hiatus AGAIN against our will. So bombard ABC with your unhappiness by emailing, calling, faxing etc. Mount up Gladiators! Mount up!
So far, she’s won herself about 300 supporters.
