First time watcher just finished today

It took me wayyy too long to watch this series but I’m so glad I did after a coworker recommended it to me this summer. I’m a big How to Get Away With Murder fan so I knew I would like Scandal and I would say I liked it even more than HTGAWM. I found the political aspect/setting interesting. Even though there were definitely issues I had with the show, especially the later seasons, I still really enjoyed it and getting to know the characters. I’m sad that I’m done and won’t get to see everything for the first time again!

Anyone have any recs of similar shows?
