My Thursday nights from 9pm - 11pm are set for the season. First with Touch, a captivating dramatic mix of spirituality and science, starring Kiefer Sutherland on FOX. Then at 10pm I turn over to ABC for Kerry Washington's Scandal!
Russell Simmons recently wrote an open letter to Miss Washington, stating:
37 years. That is the amount of time it has been since an African-American woman had the lead role in an hour-long primetime dramatic series on network television.

But let us not forget Jada Pinkett who starred in Hawthorne RN for three seasons.
Still Kerry deserves all the positive attention she has been given from The View, Uncle Russ and more. I absolutely LOVE the new hour-long political drama for its fresh cast of characters and story line.
Scandal proves to be another hit for writer/producer Shonda Rhimes (creator of Grey's Anatomy).
Shonda reveals that her inspiration for the new ABC series is D.C.-based crisis manager extraordinaire, Judy Smith.
Just like Kerry Washington's character, Judy Smith is a former White House Press Aide, famously represents the well-to-do who are in high-end contretemps — including Monica Lewinsky, the Chandra Levy family, Michael Vick, BP after the Gulf oil spill.
