TV Finales: “Idol,” “Scandal,” “The Office”
Lots of season finales last night. I didn’t watch “American Idol,” though I think the right person won. I likewise missed “Scandal,” cuz I’m so far behind and Washington is offering a bounty of real-life scandals these days so why should I depress myself further by watching the antics of Olivia Pope who, by the way, does not look good in all that white. I caught only the series end of “The Office.” [Spoiler alert.] There was a wedding (about time!) and Steve Carell returned. Still, I didn’t get many laughs: this show’s finest half-hours were well in the rear-view, which is why it was a mercy to dispatch the thing.
