Apart from being hilarious, it's nothing like Seinfeld.
Edit: actually, I suppose they share a creative use of language

So right now I honestly don't know what their going to do with Tom. On one hand, I get the feeling that he could be manipulating the situation so that he somehow ends up president over selena, on the other I can see selena's paranoia over his charm and likability driving her to destroy this perfectly nice man consequently ruining her public image even further and ultimately ending her short lived presidency. Hell, both of these could happen at the same time.

Pretty solid one this week, though definitely one of the weakest of the season.
Yeah, that got me good.
heh, I didn't notice that.

I was worried about what they were going to do with him this season to keep him in the show. Attaching him to Jonah was a stroke of genius.
"I'm sorry ma'am. A number of tall women were molested and Mr. Ryan was one of them" was my line of the night.

- Sneak peek scene from this week's episode (please spoiler tag discussion as appropriate)
Indeed. I was initially concerned he was going to keep hanging around with the core staff, and even for this show, he was too much of a bumbling fool for that to make sense. Pairing him with Jonah so that Jonah can have more scenes elsewhere and someone regular to interact with has worked out really well, however.
lmao
So... I just discovered this show last week and watched all the episodes since. I just finished last sunday's episode. This show is fucking amazing.
I think season 4 is kinda meh compared to the first three tho... I dunno, I kinda prefered when it was the original team instead of all of them leaving.

Felt like a whole episode of b-plots. The lobbying event was a little one note and really reactionary to James's comments, which also seemed inconsequential at the end of the episode. Selena's dinner went really long for such a weak premise. One of her friends isn't really into her anymore and, despite a trip to the White House, they're treated to friggin pizza and ice cream? Really glad that got built up so big in the first half.
Jonah and his assistant killed it tonight. The exchange during setup and James's speech were really strong really highlight them as one of the solidest funny couples of the show. Maybe I just prefer humor centered around incompetence than awkwardness.

"Richard T. Splett, dont know why I said that, my middle name is John."
I may have pulled a muscle laughing at that one.

That's about where I am. I loved the early episodes of the season but the last few haven't been doing it for me.
It's not bad by any means, but it hasn't been as good as I know the show is capable of being.
The lady party had me in stitches! Specially the back and forth with the sober woman.
Then when they got intruder #2 and the guards are covering Selina and Catherine, Selina goes "Sorry these guys are here to take care of me only" and "Don't worry, the only person who wants to kill you is already in this room" xDDDDDD
Also, are you eating ice cream, Catherine...?

Splett is just he best.
also Jonah making the rest of the crew cringe with his "I like my scotch like I like my women, 18 years old and wet" line

Hands down the funniest show on television.
Jonah and Richard need a spinoff.

Whoa! Catherine is Jack Bauer's daughter?
First of all, welcome back pro Caucasian party senator! Even if it was only for a moment. I was wondering if Mike had the heart to quit, but he wilted, which is very much in line with his character. Catherine at the end was great. Top 3 of her greatest scenes on the show, right up there with the birthday dinner with the family and Mike nabbing the carrot cake at the end.
I feel like these last two episodes are the calm before the storm that will be the finale. It's going to be like 3 episodes crammed into one again soon.

rolling @ the land octopus conversation
"God, another one?"
"No, Gary, it's the same one. He's doing a victory lap."
The subtle physical comedy was on point in this episode. Jonah and Richard signaling to Tom, Mike ducking, Gary reacting out of focus in the background while Selina was fumbling the conversation with her old friends, Selina being lifted from the chair by the guards during the second intrusion.

Just finished watching the FIFA corruption conference.
All I could think about is how proud Mike would be of that shit spinning.
Hugh Laurie is the fucking man. SO glad he is in this. Hope he becomes a regular.
Amazing.
