Ironic how the #### show that is the office of Veep and Potus under Selina Myer turns out to be pretty tame when compared to real American politics.
I may start over from the beginning as well. I think I could watch this several times and enjoy it as much each time.

Veep is back! I just caught the first two episodes of season 6 and it's just as good as ever.

Congressman Jonah Ryan might be the funniest thing in the history of television.

"lumpy poisoned c***" are words I will never hear together again on television, or maybe ever...in any situation again in my life. I was crying with laughter.

Definitely another great season. I feel like this season the writers wanted to see if they could take the creative swearing to a whole new level.

Jonah's journey to the White House will be magical.

Congrats to Veep on winning best comedy again at the Emmy's last week, and JLD for winning lead actress in a comedy for the sixth time in a row. The bad news: JLD has breast cancer.

I have no idea how I had missed this show entirely. I PVR'd the recent re-runs on HBO Canada and binge-watched 5 seasons of it. It is soooooo good and angry and funny and cynical and portraying everything we all know is happening over there in reality. Great cast too!

Does anyone know if I can retrieve and watch some of the missing episodes (Netflix, Prime, Crave)?

P.S. Oh, and Jonah Ryan for President!..

Crave has the entire Veep catalogue. New episodes from Sundays are usually up fairly quickly, but I usually just watch them the next day anyway.

Yeah, Veep wasn't even on my radar until I watched the first season on Crave a couple months ago. It's fantastic. On season 4 now. It's one of those shows I dole out gradually so I can savour it for months.

can't wait for this season to end, so I can watch it, since I like to watch a whole season, in a week, instead of once weekly.
Love this show, and I know this last season is getting great reviews, even though I try not to look too closely at any details.

Jonah Ryan is going to end up as President, isn't he?

It has been so unbelievably good. I've only watched a couple of shows over again and I think I need to get my wife to watch this so I can watch it again.

I hope Rhea Seehorn gets more presence with the final 3 episodes.

I have binge watched Veep to current-at-time entirety a few times. Like 3 times or 4 maybe, and still every bit as good as first time, or often better.
