back when the idea that a president would need a crisis manager seemed fantastic (the world jumped the shark)

This is a bittersweet night as we say goodbye to "Scandal," which wrapped up its seventh and final season tonight. "Scandal" premiered in 2012, back when the idea that a president would need a crisis manager seemed fantastic. That is obviously not the case anymore. Trump getting elected while you're writing a fictional show about the White House really isn't fair — it's like what would happen to "Game of Thrones" if they suddenly discovered that there ARE dragons flying around. --Jimmy Kimmel

This is the first time a TV show ended because the world jumped the shark instead of the other way around. --Jimmy Kimmel
