Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder all premiered this past Thursday.
That's one full night of Meredith Grey, Olivia Pope and Annalise Keating.
Since 2005, Shonda Rhimes has been creating hope and breaking hearts season after season, show after show, and character after character.
After all the laughing and crying, and more crying, I thought it would be a refreshing start to #TGIT if you all had a little drinking game to go along with all the (watching) crying that goes on every Thursday night.
The rules for each show are as follows:
Grey’s Anatomy
Drink every time….
Someone “dances it out”
The mention of someone being “my person”
Someone hooks up in an on-call room
Meredith gives an epic voice over
Someone takes a tequila shot at Joe’s
Dr. McDreamy (Derek Shepard) is mentioned
Bailey says she’s not getting involved
A patient dies
Dr. Webber teaches a lesson
Finish your drink every time someone cries
Scandal
Drink every time…
Olivia is eating popcorn for dinner and drinking red wine
Scratch that, every time Olivia drinks red wine
Anyone is wearing white
Olivia says “It’s handled.”
Fitz mentions that he’s the “leader of the free world”
There’s a press conference
Mellie and Cyrus make a plan together
Fitz thinks he knows what’s best, but he really doesn’t
Olivia’s father appears
Finish your drink if Olivia and her mom have an epic reunion
How to Get Away with Murder
Drink every time…
Annalise says “how to get away with murder” in the opening scene
Asher breaks out his fratty dance moves
Annalise throws someone under the bus to protect herself and her students
Laurel gets upset with Frank
Connor has sex with someone other than Oliver
Frank is mysteriously absent from a scene
There’s a flashback to Lila’s murder
A previous law case is referenced in the show
Annalise creates a competition for her students
Finish your drink if you think you know what is going to happen next
Instead of crying next #TGIT, let’s all get our drink on in celebration of the beautiful work that Shonda Rhimes has brought into our lives.
This one’s for you Shonda.
