Orange Devil posted:angry Scotsmen are dispatched to keep the ministers in said line with violent sexual imagery. This brings back memories of the episode where they show the PM's office and it's just dozens of pissed-off Malcolm Tuckers swearing into their phones about loving people so hard that their dicks would wear the guy's appendix as a hat

That honestly sounds like a quote sourced from an actual career politician.

smooth jazz posted:At least Selina got the message and 86'd Karen- hope we never see her again amirite? She's gotta come back somehow. She's gonna end up at Dan's office as "a close friend of the president" or on TV with a hot scoop about the firing of the departure of the president's campaign manager.

Orange Devil posted:The total lack of any fucks given about a man slowly and I can only imagine rather painfully dying was hilarious and depressing at the same time. It really makes me miss the Mr Tickle storyline in the last season of The Thick of It. Maybe joking about death row inmates will come out if/when this dead baby hacking thing blows up into an impeachment hearing or something. Not 100% sure it fits Veep's style, but man was it good last time.

Lumberjack Bonanza posted:Selina is quickly finding James insufferable is hilarious. Interesting that his PR gamble actually hosed up her ability to govern, I wonder if he's going to wind up being just as incompetent as everyone else, simply more charming. The fact that the "sexual tension" Selina was worried about with Tom was completely non-existent was kinda hilarious. I'm also getting the vague sense that they're angling toward Tom being gay, which would probably cause Selina's narcissism to blow up in her face hilariously. Edit: And I mean in addition to that whole "green shoes" thing. He's an older, unmarried congressman who calls a guy named "Nick" to briefly kvetch the moment he's bored on the campaign trail. Inevitably almost everyone, minus Gary, already knows. ultramiraculous fucked around with this message at 23:20 on May 18, 2015 |

sbaldrick posted:His wife and kids moved back to the UK because they hated it here, so he won't do a full time US show again. What does "full-time" mean in this context? It seems like 10 episodes of a half-hour HBO comedy isn't even close to doing 22 hour-long episodes of network TV. I could see him being POTUS/VP going forward, assuming his limited role means a comfortable shooting schedule. In general, it's not exactly like Hugh Laurie or Julia Louis-Dreyfus really need the money anyway.

Cliff Racer posted:I think that the show has moved to be too much of a drama and not enough of a comedy. Making Selena president and then keeping her there was a mistake. Yeah, I think the "what would happen if Selena was actually president" pool turned out to be a little shallow. Season 3 was a peak because they got to set up situations like the Silicon Valley visit.

Dancing Peasant posted:After seeing the preview for the next episode, I re-watched the Inquiry episode of TTOI. I was a bit weary remembering the facts besides Mr. Tick-el dying in the previous episode, but as soon as I saw Pearson corporate-bullshit-speek his way into the inquiry itself I couldn't help but remember why I thought TTOI was amazing. Human router by day, husband/lover/carpenter/flutist by night.

Pron on VHS posted:I wish they'd write out Erickson, his character sucks and doesn't do anything funny or interesting. I don't even really understand what he's doing as part of the team. He's apparently scapegoating hard for the administration, so you might get your wish!
