    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.

It depicts government as being a comedy of errors, and that might be the nicest current depiction in Pop Culture. I appreciated, too, the absurdity of following the Vice President. Since Selena Meyer is now the President in Season 4, it remains to be seen how that impacts the DNA of the show. Full Review »

Brilliant performances by Louis-Dreyfus (a very well deserved Emmy), Hale and Chlumsky (and all the other actors, seriously, it might be the best comedic assemble in history of dry comedy), literally bazillion jokes per minute (someone actually calculated jokes per minute ratio and S4 apparently has the most jokes per minute in any tv shows) and superb ridiculous storylines might make this season the best yet. Selina as president unveils mountains of timeless laughs, and the rapid social commentary, poking sexism and poignant political games just makes it an even better treat. A+ Full Review »

Not to mention Dryfus is smoking hot. I also like the supporting characters as they continue to float around her and continue to do really anything BUT help. Smart and usually not laugh out loud funny, but quirky. Full Review »
