I think this show is hilarious, just decided to try it on HBOgo a few weeks ago and I'm all caught up on this current season. Julia Louis-Dreyfus is really funny and definitely has the Cougar thing working

I think it's awesome how they never show the president but they constantly are asking where he is, or why he isn't somewhere

It also helps that I think Buster Bluth would be perfect in the job that he has, I just imagine Tony Hales character Gary as Buster

I have watched it since the beginning. I really like it. Mike, the press sec, is my favorite character.

Great show.

Based off of Thick of It from across the Atlantic, which may be a top 5 sitcom all time.

Saw the 1st season and enjoyed it but havent gotten around to watching the 2nd yet

Tony Hale is pretty funny in this show and its also pretty funny how her and the entire staff hate Jonas

great show. favorite character is Jonah, hands down.

amy is the absolute worst. her cursing just sounds ridiculous.

JLD is great in the role of VP. it's hilarious when she owns the members of her staff.

And still, maddeningly, unavailable from Netflix. I know In the Loop came out of Thick of It so I definitely want to see Thick of It for Peter Capaldi if nothing else.

Oh, well, at least this thread reminded me to put Veep in the queue.

I love it. I keep wondering if this is how Washington politics really is. It wouldn't surprise me.

Thick Of It is on hulu for free, not even the maddeningly useless hulu plus.

I love VEEP. I think the writing is very quick trigger and you really need to pay attention (not texting or surfing the web) to really appreciate the banter and insulting humor. I love how they shite on Jonah all the time.

I'm really enjoying the new strategist character so far.


Jonah and Mike are the best though.

I lost it when Jonah was walking home on the phone with the leasing agent for his Nissan Cube last week.
