Series Brief

Overview

Everyone has secrets and Olivia Pope has dedicated her life to protecting and defending the public images of the elite by keeping those secrets under wraps. Pope and her team are at the top of their game when it comes to getting the job done for their clients, but it becomes apparent that these "gladiators in suits," who specialize in fixing the lives of other people, have trouble fixing those closest at hand -- their own.

Why fans love it

Washington DC serves as an intense backdrop for this political drama. The series centers on Olivia Pope, a strategist who manages the reputations of the city’s most guarded figures. Kerry Washington leads an ensemble portraying a team of fixers who operate with ruthless efficiency while constantly navigating the blurred lines between personal loyalties and professional obligations.

A central tension exists between the high-stakes work done for clients and the wreckage left behind in the staff's private lives. These characters spend their days polishing the public images of the American elite, only to find their own choices unraveling in the process. The show portrays a version of the capital where power is a currency, and the effort required to maintain a pristine exterior often comes at too steep a price.
