[Cornballer]

No one else loved Pol Pot of Pie charts?!

I love her.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

is it difficult to separate the different personalities and quirks of Elaine, Christine, and Selina?

No, it's not because I don't think about it. They're so completely different as characters that I don't approach my work as Selina thinking about how to keep the other characters away - I'm just thinking about Selina. Ultimately there is some crossover, for instance we all kind of look alike.

 

[lamaroo]

Going to have to catch this show on the Monday repeats. Really liked the premiere though, most quotable show on TV right now.

I'd probably faint. I had the opportunity to meet the real Vice President last week. It was a day I'll never forget, he was incredibly charming and kind and brilliant.

Have those photos been posted? Love that Biden doesn't mind making fun of himself

Spoiler

(trying to imagine Cheney doing this, and I can't)

[itwasTuesday]

Marathoned all of s1 recently when I had a free HBO weekend.

Why did I not realize Amy was really Vada from 'My Girl' in disguise.

 

[BertramCooper]

I totally missed the mashed-up stump speech about Selina's HIV-positive kidney-less firefighter grandpa on the first watch. Or at least I didn't realize what they were trying to do with it.

God, Armando is so brilliant.

 

[Sumidor]

When is the next episode? I tried finding it to DVR, but it's not showing up

 

[Dan]

When is the next episode? I tried finding it to DVR, but it's not showing up

Sunday at 10 EST.

 

[Socreges]

Veep is back?? Time to get HBO again*, I guess. Loved the show despite its (imo) slow start.

*(for GoT, too)

- Quick clip from Sunday's episode (youtube)

 

[Cornballer]

New episode tonight:

Signals

Spoiler

Selina attends a pig roast in North Carolina; Dan takes up Pilates.

 

[Incognito]

Oh and Mike with his fucking boat... I hope that shit pops up again. This show feels like a live action Archer at times.

"As much as the vice president enjoys the company of stale pastries and pleasant conversation..."

"Does this feel like a sinking ship..." cue snickers from press. I was rolling.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

"Who came up with that incredibly shitty name?"

"That would be me ma'am."

"I wouldn't presume they took turns."

Edit- God I love Jonah.

Edit- And Gary. <3

Edit 2- And Dan.

 

[KingKong]

Veep seems a lot better this season, the hick roast was hilarious

 

[ThatObviousUser]

I felt so bad for Gary at the end.

 

[wenis]

Gary at the end looked suicidal, it was so bad.

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

Tonight's eps was VERY funny

show's back on track.

 

[Vyer]

"My time has come."

 

[inm8num2]

Funny episode. Lots of subtle jabs at US foreign policy, it seems.

 

[dead souls]

That was a much better episode than the premiere tonight.

 

[Bladenic]

That was a much better episode than the premiere tonight.

Agreed.

 

[TUSR]

This show has really hit its stride. More people need to watch this.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Another great episode. Season 2 is off to a great start.

"Jonah, Jonah, calm down. It's a plane with a logo; it's not Space Mountain. What the hell do you do on Air Force 1, rub your dick on the seats?"

lol

I love Matt Walsh in this. I love everyone in it really, but he's my favorite. Every line is gold.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

- Episode 2, Deleted Scene #1

"I'm on my way Sophie, okay?"

"Aww, that's so nice you can get away from your totally important stupid job."

"That's what I choose to do instead of living with a delivery guy and having a baby every 2 fucking years."

omg

I need to hear Amy and Sophie trading barbs in every episode.

(btw, the captioning on these deleted scenes don't make any sense at all. lol)

 

[Incognito]

Hilarriousss episode.

 

[Empty]

someone here commented about the increase in physical comedy last week and the pilates and jonah covering the pig were pretty great this time.

also i noticed that the episode was directed by chris addison <3 he did a pretty great job.

 

[Leunam]

I love the relationship between that one Senator and his aide. Glad they'll stick around.

 

[wenis]

Selina talking up at Jonah in that wide shot will never not be funny lol

That and mike wearing the iPad over his face when the daughter was on face time. So good.

"Youre about as annoying as a condom filled with fire ants".

"Shut up you fat girl".

That senator is brutal

 

[GusBus]

This episode was fantastic. Julia L.D is just terrific, and I love how ridiculous things got. The pork roast, the signals, pilates, Rahim, everything just brought the laughs. By far, the funniest show on television atm.

 

[kingocfs]

I loved the fucking bowl of snacks on Air Force 2, it was like something you'd see in a teacher's lounge the day after Halloween. Great ep

 

[Ekdrm2d1]

Great 2nd episode. Any gifs yet?

Great 2nd episode. Any gifs yet?

 

[Battle Born]

I liked how Selina was talking to the people Look at you! A grown woman with cotton candy…. Oh, gosh, that looks like finger-licking fun. and when she was talking about them: “They want me to go to a pig roast to meet a bunch of men who probably took turns to fuck the pig before they roasted it?” Amy: “I wouldn’t presume they took turns.”
The De-pork the visual crisis “We really need a bulkier man in this situation.” and the pilates workout were pretty funny moments. Also, Mike's "Like your mother it's been previously loved and paid for by a couple of guys." and the fire ant filled quote were amazing as well.

 

[BertramCooper]

Mike slays me.

 

[Cornballer]

Another good one this week.

 

[lamaroo]

Great episode. Jonah trying to cover the pig was hilarious.

 

[Ekdrm2d1]

Andrex,
Thanks for the gifs!

Loved the moment she walked onto Air Force 2 and made that disgust sound to Jonah.

Possibly within seconds of the below gif

We’re talking Veep this week with the HBO comedy’s showrunner, Armando Iannucci, and its star, Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Iannucci talks about geeking out on American and British politics and recreating them on-screen. Then, Louis-Dreyfus talks about her days on Seinfeld and her favorite dirty phrase from Veep.
