Thursday nights will officially be called “Shondaland,” Shonda Rhimes prepares the fall season of “Scandal,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” and newcomer “How to Get Away with Murder.” Rhimes sat down with leading ladies Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and Ellen Pompeo to promote the fall season on ABC.
“Shondaland” is filled with more drama and we’re here for it. The promo reveals tidbits from each series, including sneak peeks of the new series “How To Get Away With Murder,” starring Davis.
“It’s historic,” Washington said referring to all three shows premiering on Sept. 25, and Rhimes sewing up ABC’s prime-time viewing Thursday nights. But don’t expect any plot teasers …
When asked if she would give any spoilers, Rhimes’ lips were sealed. Both Olivia Pope and Meredith Grey ended last seasons with a bang, so it was only a matter of time for Rhimes to add another intense series to the Thursday lineup. In “Murder,” Davis plays a fierce attorney and top law professor who gets entangled with four of her students. They’ll have to employ what they’ve learned in order to get away with murder.
Stay in the know of all “Shondaland” news with the hashtag #TGIT (Thank God It’s Thursday) coined by ABC. All three of Rhimes’ shows will begin premiering at 8 p.m. on September 25. But for now, check out the “Shondaland” promo below.
