Shondaland is no longer just the name of Shonda Rhimes’s production company: Billy Eichner has constructed a pop-culture obstacle course with the same name, inspired by all of Rhimes’s ABC series. Amy Sedaris took on the task of racing through all of the obstacles — like Kerry Washington’s Water Slide of Tears — in an attempt to become the mayor of Shondaland. It looks just as fun and insane as watching Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, and How to Get Away With Murder. If only you had someone screaming at you while you were watching.
Here’s the complete course:
“Burst through the glass ceiling at ABC.”
“There’s a woman dying over there, but fuck that nurse!”
“Climb to the top of Wig Mountain and get Kerry Washington’s wig.”
“Put the wig on the Olivia Popemobile. Drive the wig!”
“Hack something.”
“Climb through the gays having gratuitous gay sex.”
“The NAACP Image Awards ball pit.”
“Run through this gauntlet of ten white people patting themselves on the bag for embracing a black lead.”
“Feed Cicely Tyson her lines.”
“The Kerry Washington Water Slide of Tears!”
