“It’s a much more complex world than it seems. And it always was. People are like: ‘Well, you know what black people are like.’ You don’t know what black people are like. Or what white people are like. You have to take people one at a time. And Easy [Rawlins], because he’s a detective, literally has to do that because otherwise he’s never going to understand what’s going on. He can’t prejudge because he is trying to find out what happened. Whenever you write about a detective, that’s how it is.”

“What was great for me about ‘Scandal’ was I had earned a lot of political capital with the network,” Rhimes told me. “I had done ‘Grey’s,’ I had done ‘Private Practice.’ What were they going to do, fire me? I wasn’t worried about what anybody else thought. This one was for me.”

Sesame Street and Star Wars have been linked many times over the years. (Like the time R2 and Threepio visited!) Seriously. It’s happens to much, we wrote a blog post all about it.

Oh, and say hi to Darth Chicken.

May the 4th be with you.
