i used to hate mellie but then you see her getting hurt over and over again by Olitz and you realise how much she's given up and sacrified for Fitz and he just doesnt know or give a shit.. she's complicated, intelligent and shes probably acts the way she does because shes in love with her husband and he shoves his affair in her face #TeamMellie

Mellie never loved Fitz and vice versa. Their marriage was arranged by their fathers. After she was raped by his father she shut down and pulled away from Fitz but he stayed faithful until he met Olivia. She condoned the affair but she did not expect for Fitz to fall for Olivia so hard. He was willing to give up the presidency and his wife for Olivia multiple times but in Mellie mind the thought of him loving Olivia never crossed it. It was just supposed to be about sex and that's it.

Mellie didn’t sacrifice for Fitz. She just decided to have a political career over a personal life. She used being First Lady as a stepping stone to be president.

I cudn't agree more!!! Bellamy's acting has sooo many layers- She can pitch it BIG, when needed. Can go subtle when asked... She always manages to pull a new one from under the hat! Among the most underrated actors on tv!

Mellie is definitely one of the best characters on the show, and very complex. She's vindictive yet really deep when it comes to her love for Fitz. And Bellamy is a QUEEN.

mellie is one hell of a character

"Ornamental, not functional" that's disappointing Fitz, no man not even u has the power to devalue a woman like that. No matter how much u hate her, yes Millie is not perfect but she has always been there for u, even if it was for her benefit, but hey.

It's funy how in interviews Tony says as Fitz its hard to say mean things to the Olivia character but he never says that about Mellie who is his wife. He feels bad after saying mean things to her it's just he's so fustrated and just too through with Mellie. It's like him being president is keeping him from being with his true love, Olivia

Keep in mind she's not telling him to get over her because she loves him and wants him to love her. She's telling him to get over Olivia because as long as Olivia is in his life her place in the white house is threatened. She don't love Fitz. She loves the perks of being first lady Mellie Grant. Throughout this conversation did you hear her tell Fitz she love him? Nope this conversation was strictly about her political future. She needs Fitz and his place of power to achieve her goal which is to become president.

Mellie is great. Bellamy's acting is excellent. They are all good but both her and Cyrus always deliver. The show would be lame without them, i hope SR keeps them next season or the olitz love story might just turn boring and oh so lame.

When Fitz said "We can't always get what we want, can we?" to Mellie, I was just like "Said the man that's screwing Olivia Pope..."

Mellie is so savage. u go gurl

Mellie is the most interesting character on the show and also such a sad one. Not necessarily in a sympathetic, victim way but in a pitiable one. Something is inherently wrong with her and watching her live day in and day out a life that doesn't fulfill her is just pitiful. You can tell she's just so miserable and despondent in her everyday life and it is all through her own masochistic self making. She's a very off individual in this Stepford, plastic-y way that seems so unnatural, and she doesn't seem to truly relate to people. It almost seems as if she is a few steps away from just completely imploding in on herself, and falling into madness which makes her suicide attempts that much more believable. It's really involving to watch that transpire and adapt to so many different settings, and yet her overall mood doesn't change and she never grows from any learning experiences. You would think after everything with Fitz she would move on, but she doesn't. In a lot of ways she's so much worse than a similar character like Bree Van De Kamp who shares a lot of downfalls and joint fate. But Mellie seems to be much worse off, like something is deeply, intrinsically broken within her. She has no clue what happiness or love really is. She's mechanical, detached, Machiavellian and predatory. So much so that she doesn't knows how to express or meaningfully have a true connection which is why Fitz can't be with her. He feels like everything concerning her is fake and immaterial. Does Mellie really love anything? She's said that she can't be a true mother to her children, which is fine but in all aspects of her life she fails to live up to the needs of her loved ones. She does things out of duty rather than true preference or deference to things that she wants, and therefore her love with always be quantifiable. The way she shackles herself to things isn't healthy. She perpetually distances herself from emotion and because she isn't actively seeking what she wants (or needs) she's just lost in an endless sea of despair because she is unfulfilled in life. This makes everyone around her equally miserable. She would rather hitch herself to a man who doesn't love her (and whom she doesn't really love if we honestly think about it) just for appearance purposes and to achieve her hollow dream of becoming a First Lady and increase her politically status -- even though that title has given her no additional value in her life and it's unlikely that she would achieve any additional merit in the future. So sad, so wrong and so deeply flawed.

Being first lady is the stepping stone to what she really wants and that's to be president which is what she becomes the last season. We find out season 3 that her father in law raped her when Fitz ran for governor. She was never gonna tell Fitz. He found out from Olivia. Yes she had children she didn't want and played the role of what a wife suppose to play but it wasn't what she wanted as her identity. Her husband paid for the sins of his father all those years and in her mind the least she can do is let him be unfaithful to her but what she didn't expect was for him to fall in love with her. She practically made it easy for him. For Mellie to be so brilliant she really was so naive.

Excellent compilation! Shows Mellie as the complex woman that she is. Starts w/her being hurt by Fitz's words and ends with her feeling vulnerable. In between, she teaches Fitz & Olivia the importance of public image and team work, advises a woman whose husband strayed, manipulates Hal (weak-ass) and Tom, shares details of his dreams with Fitz and warns him of her political viability and sharpshooter skills. You have done Mellie justice as does Bellamy Young in her portrayal of a scary FLOTUS.

"You see her again; I'll blow you away. And I'm an excellent shot. Remember?" "Get. Over her.......GET OVER HER!!!!!!!" Second time she said that she sounded like the guy from Mortal Kombat lmao! But really you could see how upset/sad she was. Either over her husband being in love with someone else or for sadness for her own career. Or maybe both.

Keep in mind throughout that whole conversation did she tell Fitz that she loved him and that she wanted him to love her? No that entire conversation was about keeping him focused on what she thought was important and that's for him to stay president because it's a steppingstone to her future. This is why she has put up with so much with Fitz. Remember she has condoned the affair with Fitz and Olivia for the longest. The problem is she don't comprehend that he's actually in love with Olivia. She just thinks its lust. No woman that actually loves their husband is gonna pimp out her husband to another woman. She would be making it easy for the next chick. Fitz and Mellie marriage isn't based on love. It's a political arranged marriage that went downhill after his father raped her while Fitz ran for governor. We find that out the next season 3. That's why it's cold, distant, and dead

I love Mellie, I know her character isnt designed to be lovable, but Mellie knows what she is in this for the "First lady" position. She does love Fitz but I think she loves her position more. So him trying to be with Olivia doesnt bother her because she's jealous, its because she doesnt want to ruin their chances of a second term.

She’s gold! She’s fire 🔥

I don't care how much some like Liv, I LOVE Mellie! She knows what her marriage is reduced to and has resigned to the fact that she's lost her husband. Matter of fact, in the back of her mind, she realizes that she's currently married to a high strung, alchoholic, elderly person murdering, shouldn't be President...old girl is gonna come out looking better!! LMAO

Nobody shuts downs Olivia Pope like mellie does. She leaves Olivia speechless. With mellie you have to sleep with one eye open and the other closed. She is a monster...what a hell of an actress, she is fantastic.

That first statement Fitz made was disgusting!!

Thank you,thank you,thank you for taking the time and compiling these AMAZING scenes and putting it together for all to watch.Mellie is perhaps the most interesting character on tv today.I am so glad that more people are seeing that Mellie is not just a surface-level villain.She's full of unimaginable complexity and depth and as a avid tv watcher, its an absolutely thrill to watch week by week.

i love Mellie and I think that Bellamy does a great job with the character. They all do great job with their characters which is why we can love them and hate them depending on the day. But you left off the best clip ever, when Mellie was telling Fitz he was his father and that his children hates him now that was great

4:37 Mellie’s speech for Nancy and herself is personally my favorite Mellie scene of the entire series “You were just stronger than he was”

Ok that last scene, am I the only one who thought Mellie knew about the assassination? She tries to stop him from leaving the car, she seems desperate! I know she didn't have anything to do with it, but that scene always confuses me!

I won't front, I love Mellie. I think she and Fitz weren't necessarily in love, but they were partners, and the agreement was, that he'd go into the White House, and then she'd leverage it for her shot at it, ala Hillary Clinton. Fitz falling for Olivia meant that he went off the reservation, and Mellie is all sorts of pissed and constricted as First Lady. I love Mellie. Bellamy Young needs an Emmy, b/c in the hands of another actress, the character could have been a one note harpy.

😂😂😂😂 Yooooo! Mellie is SAVAGE!!!

I listened to this entire speech and I realize that Mellie was only worried about her and her only. Not that her husband was having an affair but that it was gonna affect her future and goals and dreams of a political career. Being first lady was just a stepping stone for her and she didn't want anything to jeopardize that. She's not saying get over her to love and be faithful to her she saying get over her because the more Olivia is in his life he will give up his presidency for her and Mellie don't want that at all. Fitz isn't power hungry like Mellie and Cyrus

Miss Mellie typifies the model of women that have been placed on the pedestal of the ultimate woman. She has been the measuring rod used for women throughout the world in terms of beauty, intelligence, marriage model and sexuality. BOOM now the world is seeing that women of color are beautiful and intelligent among other virtues. This show reflects the fact that the pedestal no longer is exclusive to women of European lineage only.

Love love love mellie she is just the best

1:17 Mortal KOMBAAAAAT!!!

talented BELLAMY

I love Mellie too!

This is a true queen

Has she won Emmy yet

Mellie Grant is my favourite female character on the show. I love Fitz but without Mellie and Olivia, he would just be another rich boy working for his daddy. Both of these phenomenal women moulded him into a man worthy of leading a nation. I can't wait to see more of Mellie's character as the show unravels. Also Fitz and Olivia, I love them together.

People say these things all the time. They think they know what they'd do when they try to place themselves in someone elses shoes. If you were the first lady of the united states, the most powerful and influential nation in the world, you wouldn't throw that all away by divorcing your husband, even for cheating.

My character on that entire show.

Mellie is a beast. One of the best actress ever. She is so good at being bad and manipulative that she makes people cheer Olitz relationship. Great acting Bellamy!

Mellie is such a wise lady😍

Mellie's my favourite too!

I don't care about Fitz or Olivia. Mellie is the greatest character on that show. Fitz disgusts me. And the way he speaks to his wife disgusts me even more.

Thank you Thank you for make this STATEMENT about Mellie Wow I'am so glad to someone is thinking the same way That's right Beautiful Kerry Washington who's up for Emmy & not Bellamy!

I love Mellie and Olitz.Make no mistake,Mellie can't love him like Liv does.That's all Fitz needs and wants.Mellie doesn't get it,She tries to give him everything, but the one thing he needs, affection and admiration.He has passion and i think he loved her, that's why he had kids with her,They have the same love of country, but she is contantly competing with him.Now she's competing w/Liv to get her husband back and it's too late.She is tortured/afraid of what Olitz will do to her ambitions.

everybody is talking how great olivia is in what she does..mellie too is great at what she does..i think she loves fitz but she too has conflicts of her own..when olivia came she was just too complacent to think fitz is not going to fall in love with liv just fling but turns out she realize fitz is just crazy for olivia..mellie is doing her way too stay on his side and the whitehouse..she is a greta character in the show! keep mellie! love the show! bellamy is my new fave actress!

I love her.

I love the end scene wife the widow

I have never watched the show. Do I want a friend like Mellie? No. Do I want Mellie on my side always? Yes.

best character on the show; hands down. Mellie FTW! (dont want her w/ fitz though, obvi)

Mellie Grant is the best character on the show!! The writers should give even more importance to her.. I always look forward to her epic dialogues and Bellamy Young is a brilliant actress for this role.... The writers should keep her character this way - a strong, devious, POLITICAL ANIMAL.. Do not ever make her a soft character!! Pleeease!! For me - Mellie and Cyrus WAAAy better than all the others (even Olivia)

Mellie is my BEST character on the show,,, wayyyyy above Olivia

Disagree - Mellie is not in love with Fitz and has never been - it appears to have been a marriage of convenience - going by the last episode with his dad and if that was the case, she definitely has missed the boat - as she lacks compassion and is too self-absorbed - she is just interested in her title and political career. She is put out because Fitz has found someone he can love and relate to and when she's had the opportunity to make amends she's had no clue about his emotions and needs.

Anyone else wonder if Mellie was supposed to be behind Fitz's assassination attempt, but then the writers went another way because her character was so brilliant? There's even an episode later in the show when Fitz says he thought she was behind the shooting at first. It makes sense since she was never meant to be a main character, but we loved her so much they started giving her more storylines. She was easily the best character.

hal please stop telling FITZ AND OLIVIAS BUISNESS

I love Mellie a real true pimp....she plays a mean game..don't feck with Mrs. Mellie......a very strong woman who can see the big picture, this is a partnership so fall in line..I really want to see more of Mellie character...

LOVE mellie !

can anyone tell me what episode 2:21 is from?..I don't remember it.

Mellie is Jackie O, Hilary Clinton and Michelle Obama all rolled into one.....

Yo. Hal was a loyal soldier to Mellie 🔥

Gotta luv Mellie! Bellamy Young is playing her character so well. I'm def an Olitz fan but Mellie is starting to become my fave character on the show. I'd like to see more of her. Also, I don't think Mellie was involved in the murder attempt. First, that'll be too easy of an answer and the writers never do that. Second, who wants to stand next to a person knowing they're about to be shot? You'll want to be far away to make sure the bullet doesn't hit or graze you. I say it was Hollis or the VP.

I have to agree being a mistress is not about being put on a pedestal.

For some reason, I always thought Mellie had a part in his shooting

What a place to end this video.

Miss Mellie carries on the status quo that she was born into, she supports the image of the Stepford Wife therefore she is loved by all that perceive the perfect woman does all the things just like Miss Melllie.

Mellie just seems to bring it upon herself. I think a lot of the times she is flawed not because of her ambition but she fails to care and take the time to listen to the ones around her. She seems very selfish and cold and the inability to relate to people around her isolates her from growing into a better person.
