Previously On ‘America’: Olivia Pope, Annalise…
What if Election Night 2026 performed out like the last word tv crossover episode?

Award-winning activist, artist and cultural commentator Dominique Morgan is placing her signature wit, political perspective and gorgeous storytelling to work, imagining what would occur if Scandal‘s Olivia Pope, How to Get Away With illegal killing‘s Annalise Keating, Reasonable Doubt‘s Jax Stewart and Suits‘ Jessica Pearson joined forces to dissect the election outcomes.
With Keisha Lance Bottoms’ historic gubernatorial victory at the middle of this fictional political powerhouse powwow, Morgan blends real-world historical past with tv’s most formidable Black girls for the crossover episode we never knew we needed, but it’s precisely what we deserve. —Dani Canada

Sort of.
In 2018, tv truly put Olivia Pope and Annalise Keating in the same universe. Annalise needed help getting her class-action case before the Supreme Court, and for two hours Scandal and How to Get Away With illegal killing grew to become one story.
Eight years later, they need another crossover.
No Supreme Court case.
No fictional president ready down the corridor.
This time, the case is America.
And November 3, 2026, has entered evidence.
