Photographic Proof the 'Scandal' Cast Is the Embodiment of #SquadGoals

With news the show is coming to an end after season 7, we're looking back on the cool crew and their off-screen shenanigans

THEY TAKE ADORABLE MASS SELFIES

The frame can barely fit all the love happening between Scandal stars Kerry Washington, Jeff Perry, Katie Lowes, Darby Stanchfield and Guillermo Déaz at March 2015's PaleyFest.

THEY'RE TOTAL GOOFBALLS

And with love comes silliness, like in another glorious PaleyFest pic of Déaz and Lowes, the actors behind television's creepiest romance (dubbed "Huckleberry Quinn"), clowning around.

SERIOUSLY, THESE PEOPLE ARE SILLY

Scott Foley and Joshua Malina's characters may spar on-screen, but after hours they make weird faces together. (While Malina really commits, Foley seems incapable of distorting his flawless bone structure.)

THEY PLAN MATCHING-OUTFITS DAYS

President Fitzgerald Grant and First Lady Mellie Grant (Tony Goldwyn and Bellamy Young) may be a horribly dysfunctional couple, but they are beyond adorable IRL: Young posted this shot on her Insta of a day the two dressed up like "twinsies."

THEY HAVE PAJAMA PARTIES

Was our invite lost in the mail? Girlie PJ parties are seemingly the norm for Washington and Lowes, who gave us serious friendship envy with this pic.

THEY SUPPORT EACH OTHER OFF-SCREEN

When Perry starred in Anna Christine with L.A.'s Odyssey Theatre Ensemble, his on-screen hubby Dan Bucatinsky and Lowes happily popped into a performance.

The Scandal ladies don't need dates – they have each other! Young, Lowes and Stanchfield indulge their selfie obsession with this shot at a party thrown by Vogue and the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

THEY PRAISE EACH OTHER'S PERFORMANCES

The cast's social media is always abuzz (particularly on Thursdays, obviously) with compliments for fellow costars' performances. "What I love about Kerry Washington's acting? 110% commitment!" Goldwyn Tweeted after a particularly powerful episode.

THEY MEET THE FAMILIES

Meeting the parents means it's serious. Young met Stanchfield's mom, Nancy, and posted this picture of the two of them, calling both "gorgeous." (We wouldn't expect anything less than gushing.)

THEY WATCH TV TOGETHER

Couch, snacks and PJs for the Oscars? Oh hell no. Stanchfield, Goldwyn and Lowes got fancy for a swanky 2015 viewing party.

THEY ARE A FAMILY

Portia de Rossi, Stanchfield and Scandal creator Shonda Rhimes are all a part of the #ShondalandFamily, so obviously de Rossi and Stanchfield were on hand when Rhimes was honored by The Hollywood Reporter.

THEY'RE SIMPLY THE CUTEST

At a holiday party, the men of Scandal put on their finest gimmicky Christmas gear and posed for this shot, complete with a Bellamy Young photobomb, officially giving us all #FOMO.
