To be fair, Scorpion will never be compared to series like Game of Thrones or The Blacklist, but it did have its very loyal following. To most fans, it was a punch in the gut to learn that one of their favorite shows was being canceled right before it was to hit its peak. With that said, yes, they did have their fair share of bad moments but Scorpion did have its really good ones as well.
With it gone, there is only one way to pay homage to a show people watched but if asked in front of a jock, they will deny ever knowing it existed. Today, we'll take a look at 10 best episodes that aired according to IMDb.
