Matt Brennan

Apr 9, 2015

The series reserves its most blistering humor for the universal narcissism on display, always distracting from the real work at hand. For all the brilliant, tossed-off insults and uniformly excellent performances, including Patton Oswalt as a "hands-on" aide to the vice president, the season's through line is its treatment of politics as a con artist's medium.

Veep enters its fourth season, firmly established as one of television’s best comedies, and then immediately does what seems impossible--it delivers its most thoroughly assured, hilarious and brilliantly written and acted episodes. Read full review

The Emmy-winning show is still as funny as ever, if not moreso, but it also merits our attention for the care with which it is managing a long run on television. Read full review

Veep is incomparable in comedy. Along with fellow regular Emmy-nominee "Louie," the HBO comedy has crafted a style so unique the series itself is entirely its own beast. Read full review

The dialogue is, as always, ribald and inspired. [10 Apr 2015, p.59]

OK, if you don’t find awkward funny, you won’t get Veep. But terrific as Louis-Dreyfus is at playing a woman seemingly incapable of embarrassment, her large supporting cast also helps establish the show’s bizarre rhythm. Read full review

Good show, engaging and, at times, extremely funny. Though I find the sidekick characters far more humorous than JLD,she does have her moments and the show does stay on an even keel, humor wise, from episode to episode.

I continue to like the development of the show, as the main character has changed roles but is still a clusterf*ck of disorganization, wrapped in not knowing how to do her job-or really what job need to be done. Not to mention Dryfus is smoking hot.

This is the lamest show I've ever seen in my life. I can't believe it's considered to be a comedy. It hasn't made me laugh even once, ever. Don't watch it.
