If you have a problem with the same-sex sex scenes on "Scandal" and "How to Get Away with Murder," then Shonda Rhimes has a problem with you.
The creator of "Grey's Anatomy" and "Scandal" and executive producer of the new hit "How to Get Away with Murder" did not mince words when a Twitter user decided to complain to Rhimes about the "gay scenes" on her shows.
"The gay scenes in 'Scandal' and 'How to Get Away with Murder' are too much. There is no point and they add nothing to the plot," the commenter wrote.
Rhimes quickly fired back and, in a way that would make Meredith Grey, Miranda Bailey, Olivia Pope, Annalise Keating or any other of her no-nonsense characters proud, shut the whole thing down.
Rhimes then said she had to get back to work, but left a "one love" message for all her followers first.
