Wow best episode of the series so far.

 

[Sai-kun]

I think this was my favorite episode of the whole thing so far. Really, really excellent.

 

[anaron]

I need a transcript for this episode, almost every other line was quote-worthy gold

 

[Gary Whitta]

Just getting caught up, already a great season this year! Love that the premiere was directed by Chris Morris.

Such a robust episode.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Robust indeed.

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Secretary of Defense needed to say "shiiiiiiieeeeeeeeet."

 

[Bladenic]

I was DYING at Madox calling Selena "Lara Croft." This show is fucking amazing.

 

[wenis]

Holy shit this episode was on fire. First with the shit analogy then dipping into robust and falling into the porn star banging 200 dudes and finally landing in the oh so horrible but fucking hilarious dark ending. I felt so awful for laughing at every joke.

But the way Gary takes care of her is so sweet. I wish I had a Gary.

This is the only show on right now that I wish was longer. Every week that's how I feel.

 

[dead souls]

Another great episode. Two really strong weeks in a row.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

"It's like trying to explain gravity to a chicken."

"It's all Cliff's fault! That grinning fucking ewok!"

ahahaha I love this show

 

[Persona7]

"Long tall Sally" from last week destroyed me.

 

[Bladenic]

The entire sequence with the new senators was amazing, I couldn't breathe. So happy we get 10 episodes this year. Wish we got 12 next year but it'll probably be 10 again.

 

[Dan]

I was hoping Selina would get to more directly slap Sue down. It's one thing to bask in a brief moment of being in the spotlight, it's another when it's due to making a fool of yourself and those you represent.

Yeah I'm kinda confused about that. Did Sue do that on purpose? And the way she ran with it was pretty strange for Sue, didn't really seem in line with her character. They should have featured Sue more in the episode IMO. And I wish there was a scene between Selena and Sue, a full scene I mean.

Still, a wonderful episode nonetheless.

 

[Empty]

it felt a bit like a 48 minute episode crammed into 30. i would have liked more explanation and payoff from the sue subplot and more bickering between selina and the defense secretary.

the timed noodle analogy was beautiful though, and i think i'm going to crack up next time i hear a politician say robust

 

[Ekdrm2d1]

Such a robust episode.

:lol

10/10

 

[kingocfs]

Wonder how long Mike would have gone on about his legs if Selina didn't cut him off.

[fifasnipe2224]

I am really enjoying this show more than what I thought I would. We need more GAFers to watch and post here.

 

[wenis]

Wonder how long Mike would have gone on about his legs if Selina didn't cut him off.

For so long I'd need the "cliff" notes of it.

A couple of golden lines here (Jonah on C-Span, Cliff's farewell to Jonah).

"I wanna know how your...film making is going..."

I fuckin died

 

[madkiller]

Another stellar episode.

 

[Battle Born]

This season keeps getting better: the swearing Oh, Ruby! I wish that . . . was . . . my cousin's name., Sue's robust committee on efficiency committee I don’t have a sense of humor, and neither should you that lead to the eventual frustrated Selina telling the grinning Cliff Do you need to Google it?! and the whole hostage thing including the noodle thing was simply amazing.

 

[Clevinger]

Loved Fake Sue/Cliff. And the timed noodle thing was beautiful.

[Cornballer]

A couple of golden lines here (Jonah on C-Span, Cliff's farewell to Jonah).

Cliff & Jonah at the end was superb as was Mike's small talk with the troops.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

OMFG, so many great parts this ep. The "End of an era" stuff got me the most though.

And it was actually nice to see some compassion/heart in an Ianucci thing. Cynicism makes for better humor but Ianucci's style is nothing short of biting, so it's good to have a little reprieve from it.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I hope Cliff becomes a semi-permanent character.

 

[Rookje]

Not feeling this season so far. LOVED the last season.

 

[wenis]

Cliff's line to Jonah in the deleted scene was great.

 

[vidcons]

what can i say that hasn't been said about veep? it's hilarious, fast, witty, sharp, topical, and god damnit if it doesn't bring all of those to the table each week and have me laughing my tooshie off. veep is fantastic and hilarious. i highly recommend to those who enjoy humor.

 

[Ceebs]

Cliff's line to Jonah in the deleted scene was great.

I literally started laughing like a madman at that one.

Also the bit about the GI Joe.

 

[dead souls]

Not feeling this season so far. LOVED the last season.

Really? I'm the exact opposite. Most of season one and the season two premiere were merely good, but the last two episodes have been great.

 

[Cornballer]

 

[BertramCooper]

I'd love a GIF of Selina screaming "CLASSIFIED!" as Gary opens the door.

 

[luxarific]

Really? I'm the exact opposite. Most of season one and the season two premiere were merely good, but the last two episodes have been great.

Yeah, this season has been much better than the first, imo. Chemistry, timing, writing that we've seen so far wasn't there yet. Still not as good as Thick of It, but getting closer.

 

[Sai-kun]

The noodle analogy had me rolling, but then the timer went off and I fucking lost it. That was absolutely incredible.

 

[War Peaceman]

Yeah, this season has been much better than the first, imo. Chemistry, timing, writing that we've seen so far wasn't there yet. Still not as good as Thick of It, but getting closer.

Definitely, it really hit its stride in the back end of last season and is continuing that here.

Also, CLAY DAVIS!
