Great final. I was expecting Selena to lose the nomination and have things end with a Veep offer but her getting what she wanted at great cost was a much better conclusion. There were so many funny moments but my favourite was Mike insulting Dan's suit. I also loved seeing Sue again of course.

Now that the funniest show on TV is unfortunately over any thoughts on what the new funniest show is? I would say Silicon Valley if the next season ever gets announced and I also love The Good Place and Rick & Morty. Oh, and What we Do in the Shadows is quickly becoming a favourite.

Finally where do we rank Veep on the list of greatest TV comedies of all time? Considering a criteria of laughs per minute over a multiple season run that didn't overstay its welcome and offered a satisfying conclusion I will go out on a limb and call it the funniest show ever. The only others I think would come close are Curb, Parks and Rec, Futurama, and Peep Show.
