zwdzk posted:Wow. That third episode was so awful in terms of "Veep" quality that I had to look up who wrote it. I was optimistic after the first two episodes this season seemed like more of a return to form, but now that every character has been reverted back into a drooling, oblivious moron devoid of any humanity or subtlety, I know better. It's a TV show.

zwdzk posted:You're right. I never should have gotten so furious In Real Life over a TV show. That's just silly. Thank You Again fine sir I don't agree that it's mediocre but I think most of us recognize that it has declined in quality, both from Iannucci stepping down and reality outpacing television in terms of absurdity. Most of what you're complaining about regarding the characters happens to almost every show over time, which is why 7 seasons is about the max for most comedies without getting stale. Despite all that it's still funnier than any currently running show that I can think of. But it's more like consistent B+ material than A material.

Also if I can be nitpicky, the joke of the corndogs thing is that it’s what Jonah would find to be the height of comedy.

The one thing that feels slightly off about the abortion thing is that it’s the rare moment where the show comes down firmly on one side of an issue. That might be part of why all those pro-lifers are having meltdowns about it.

kanonvandekempen posted:The character of Selina has always been progressive (for a middle aged democrat) That’s the thing though, her party is unstated and you can project whatever you want her to be onto her as a result. And if you’re anti-choice and see that a character as heinous as Selina is pro-choice, it’s easy to watch the show and think the writers must agree with you. Amy has slightly more of a moral compass and the protesters are made to look like idiots, so the show’s stance on the issue is clearer now than it was before.

Soccer knowers: is there a reason why it’s funny that Leeds United is the team the seedy Russian guy was buying, or was that probably just a fan in the writers room?

Atlas Hugged posted:All I know about football is that Leicester was owned by a seedy Thai businessman who crashed his helicopter onto the pitch after a game killing himself and his mistress... Like half of the successful teams in Europe are owned by shady oil barons so I got that much of the joke. Just don't know if there's a Leeds-specific thing that makes it funnier.
