UK Gladiators have ample cause to celebrate this week. For, ‘Scandal’ has found a new home.

The popular political drama was at the center of many headlines early this week when More4, a Channel 4 spin-off station, confirmed that it would be dropping the ABC hit after airing it for two seasons.

Alas, an outcry of sorts ensued – with some cultural commentators making a number of insightful correlations; most notably between the lack of “color” on British screens and how the so-so promotion for the Kerry Washington fronted show in the UK almost guaranteed its axing.

Whatever the case, British fans of the series needn’t fret anymore. Because, an even bigger network has pouched the rights to air the show.

After 14 years of seeing its stages graced by the best of R&B and gospel including legends Whitney Houston and The Clark Sisters to new schoolers Monica, Destiny’s Child, and more, the show appeared to be at the height of its popularity.  As the 2014 edition, hosted by Academy Award-nominated actress Taraji P. Henson, boasted the series’ best ratings ever,  fans believed the show’s newest slogan of “forward in faith” was fitting indication that it was moving full speed ahead.

Rumor has it, this isn’t the case:
