Man, you can tell they are having fun with that lobby storyline, its just so sleazy. I really like Tom as a character now, probably one the most likeable Ianucci characters, which can only mean bad things for his character.

Maybe. I can see things going down two ways:

1) Tom takes the fall for the Veep's illegal stuff, being the ultimate good guy.
2) Tom becomes the head of the ticket, relegating Meyers to Veep once again, lol.

Really seems like they're setting him up to be President, especially that entire scene with them all in the same room, while Selina is off by herself.

I actually don't think I'd be able to continue with the show if she was back to being the veep. I like how her time with the presidency has effectively made every little mistake a gigantic fuck up. Going back would honestly be kind of redundant. Maybe it would be a good way to end the series?

Yeah, I feel they need to rename it POTUS or potentially refocus on a new Veep. Bouncing Selina back to Veep would feel a bit too contrived, though I suppose they could pull some crazy Electoral College shenanigans.
 
New episode tonight:
B/ill

Gary sets up a secret meeting with Dan and Amy to persuade them to lobby against the Families First bill; Selina tries to keep working when she gets the flu; Selina's staff works to ensure a vote will go in her favor.

That was a really strong episode and a nice bounce back from the last few episodes that I didn't like as much.

Yeah my "lesser liked" episodes of Veep usually get that kind of review too. I don't think I've seen a bad episode, really, just ones I like less.

You're a big guy.
Kent is such a great character. His lines and reactions are just perfect. Plus he doesn't get overused like Richard and Jonah.

One of the best things the programme does is show the ways people act towards superiors and inferiors. People cowering before Selena/Ben, then lording it over Jonah for example.

Fantastic episode, loved the rollercoaster of intended and accidental incompetence. The whole season has been on point.

I also lost it with the Minecraft line (among others), the scenes inside that car were hilarious:

"Do you think I want to be in this fucking Minecraft piece of shit?"

"You colossal fucking fanny pack. You don't get it, do you?"

"You're backing up? Just fucking go straight."
"I took a precision driving class, Dan. I think I know what I'm doing."

"You know, you could just hit the fucking gas, Jonah."
"Dan, I'm not getting a ticket. That's the kind of shit that comes back to bite you when you run for office."
"Yeah, that's what's gonna hold you back."

"Okay, new rule in the Cube. If your name begins with D, you need to shut the fuck up immediately."
"I'm fine because my name begins with an R."

Amazing episode.

Of course Jonah drives a fucking Nissan Cube lmao

Veep won the "Sunday Night Veep Vs Silicon Valley war" this week. Silicon was great too but nowhere near as funny as the last couple of weeks.
