7 Shows That Are Better Than Scandal

On twitter I wrote "Walking Dead > Scandal", to which someone(black chick) responded "#liestoldonTwitter". Don't get me wrong Scandal is a good show, but the writing of Scandal is not f^cking with Walking Dead, as a matter of fact Scandal's writing and developing plots are not f^cking with a lot of shows on television right now. Scandal is a good show but I'm not sold yet, here are "7 Other Shows That Sh!t on Scandal":

Walking Dead
This isn't exactly your average story about zombies and sh!t. The boy main character Rick wakes up in the hospital and the zombie epidemic has begun. The first season is basically, "how do we cope in a world with zombies?" Then the second season is "the hunt for shelter and stability, how do we build lives in an post-apocalyptic world". The third season which just started up again now moves from the danger of zombies to the threat of man. Zombies are only the setting or background in this world, the protagonists and antagonists are the people that vie for power in this zombie world. Not to mention if you're familiar with "Walking Dead" this season Rick has lost his f^cking mind. I don't even like horror, but they delve deep into the horror of human nature on this show.

Mad Men
Don Draper of Mad Men might be one of the most complex characters on tv right now. His story, his job, his lovelife...Don Draper is an ad-man(professional advertiser), probably the best damn ad-man. He's passionate about his job, he doesn't speak much and doesn't take "no" for an answer. In this show he is the epitome of the traditional white collar man. Words really can't do this masterpeice justice, it's just great. The dialogue, the characters, it's near my top shows.

Breaking Bad
Focuses on a chemistry teacher named Walter White recently diagnosed with cancer that begins to cook and sell meth. In the event that he dies to support his family, which are his b!tching wife, a son with cerebral palsy, and a new born baby...oh yeah and a brother-in-law that is DEA and trying to catch this big meth dealer whom just happens to be Walter. Man just check this show out.

Boardwalk Empire
Nucky Thompson, Chalky White, and the unpredictable Gyp Rosetti are my boys let me just get that out of the way. This is a gangster show centered around the life a New Jersey bootlegger Nucky Thompson during the prohibition period, where gangsters like Al Capone were on the rise. This show is just well-written to the T. Even the way they portray Al Capone is different than any other show or movie that I've seen.

Game of Thrones

So at first I couldn't really get into the "Game of Thrones". I didn't really understand it, then I just sat down one night and gave this mediaeval, fantasy show a try and it grew on me. Finally, I understood phrases such as "Winter is Coming" and other sh!t. Not to mention they have zombies in this show too, but they call 'em "white walkers". Where fantasy usually sucks is when the show slows down and the writers just begin to make up sh!t, but not with Game of Thrones. So far, so good. The plot is basically families vying for power in the medieval time with fanatasy sprinkled in and this show also has no problem killing key players, which I believe must be a trait of a well-written show.

Dexter

Yeah, I almost gave up on Dexter the first time I saw it too. However, this is one of those peculiar and quirky shows that will grow on you. So check it out! Dexter is a blood spatter analyst at a homicide precinct in Miami and he also happens to moonlight as a vigilante serial-killer. I think that's enough to get you to watch it and if you happen to make it to about the 4th/5th season you'll be hooked.

Suits
Suits is a new favorite of mine, I just got hip to it about a month ago and have been watching ever since. Basically, its about a top lawyer at a firm who hires an associate that doesn't have a degree, but is a genius and has a lot of street smarts. Throughout the season they help each other, hide their secret and win cases. And not to mention a true strong black woman character played by Gina Torres. However, the mindf^cking that goes on in this show or the outsmarting not only legal clients but fellow colleagues demonstrates the best of legal/professional politics and writing. Mike gets on my nerves sometimes but Harvey sets him straight when need be.
