    'Veep' drags its main character to a new situation and it is hilarious as it can be. The insults seem to have improved and the comedy is absolutely wonderful. Let's hope this keeps going through the whole season.

    It's so hypocritical, on this season pilot episode, it made a joke of Character Ben saying words like Chinaman's chance Oriental and Yellow fever, why don't you make jokes by using the word **** for a change, or maybe Porch money or even Spook? I double dare you. Freaking political correctness is even double standard on a HBO show too, shame on y'all writers producers on the show.

    Arguably not quite as sharp as Veep's very best seasons this show nevertheless remains an absolutely hysterical watch.

    Okay, I'm new to this series. Very funny show... but I HATE "shaky cam!" Come on, I thought we were all done with that in 2008.
    Seriously, it's distracting, stupid, and it gives me a fckin headache. I will not be watching another episode.

    While some comedies tend to get stale late in their run as a series, Veep continues to be great.

    It’s still laugh-out-loud funny, the best comedy on TV. One episode will have her monitoring a free election in a former Soviet republic. The irony just drips. And all you can say about Louis-Dreyfus is that six isn’t too many.

    While there are far too few Veep episodes each season, the ones that begin this, the sixth, are jewels to treasure. Unimpeachable, Veep remains the best comedy on television. Now, more than ever.

    Ben's Silicon Valley culture shock, Dan's power struggle with his mercurial co-star, and Jonah's congressional hazing provide new fodder for Veep's beyond the claustrophobic halls of power. After five seasons, the show's limited context began to constrain comedic potential; now its characters are free to wreak havoc in an exponentially larger environment.
