Cast of ABCs Scandal on Good Morning America and The View

The cast of ABCs Scandal spent a very busy day in New York making appearances on daytime TV shows Good Morning America and The View.

On the journey to the studios the cast tweeted pictures and Vine videos of the trip. Columbus Short was absent and questions were asked on Twitter.

The ABC press release for the View listed featured appearances from the Scandal cast as, Kerry Washington, Tony Goldwyn, Guillermo Diaz, Katie Lowes, Joshua Malina, Jeff Perry, Columbus Short, Darby Stanchfield and Bellamy Young.  So Columbus was definitely scheduled to be there. It turns out that Columbus had a prior family engagement. Wish someone had tweeted that to stop the gladiators form panicking.

The View also had Judy Smith, real-life inspiration for the character of Olivia Pope as guest co-host. In the video above Tony Goldwyn happily obliged when Sherri Shepard asked him to enact the scene with her that had Twitter blowing up. “Watch me earn you.” It looked like Sherri needed a fainting couch after Tony followed through with a kiss. Lucky lady.

The cast started the morning on ABCs Good Morning America.
