I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

That's the only way I can see out of it. I kept waiting to see a lightbulb over someone's head as they realized it, but it never happened.
Let me tell you, Homer Simpson is cock of nothing!

Re: Veep
Didn't realize we have a Veep thread. I just got into the show a few months ago and am almost caught up (on ep 2 of season 5). This is one of the very few shows out there that actually makes me laugh out loud these days. JLD is phenomenal and quite frankly hotter now than ever. So yeah pretty excited for the new season.

Re: Veep
Seriously this show is so great. Only Arrested Development manages to pack as many laughs into each episode, I think.

Re: Veep
I'm not the biggest fan of Arrested Development. The third season is not good. This show is better and has more quality seasons.
