1. Binge-watching
The most logical thing to do when a show is on hiatus is to watch the previous seasons over and over again, right? Right. That's what Netflix is for, my friends. Watch the series on repeat if you must! I can't say it'll cure your withdrawal symptoms but it'll definitely cushion the blow. Who knows, maybe you'll catch something you missed the second time around. Binge-watching the series is just one of the ways to cope without Scandal!
2. Comfort Foods
Must I really explain this? Comfort food will do exactly as it says, comfort you. Grab your favorite chocolates, your bowl of popcorn and your huge wine glass. These will be your best friends as you binge-watch the show. I mean, has chocolate ever let you down? It'll help you deal with the fact that'll be a couple of months until you can watch new episodes.

One awesome way to pass the time to think up alternate endings! I mean, what would have happened if Mama Pope killed Papa Pope? Would Fitz have won the election if his son wasn't killed? The possibilities are endless!

I don't know about you, but I try to work the word "gladiator" into regular conversation as many times as possible. It's just so much fun!
