This is one I should probably revisit. I watched the first season and remember not liking it as much as most.

Re: Veep
My thoughts exactly, was a bit lukewarm to S1, but by the time they got to S3 the cast really came into their own. I seem to catch a new joke, awkward expression, lude comment, etc face every time I watch it. Gary is still my favetragabigzanda wrote:Now I love this show, but I wasn't blown away by S1 when I first watched it either. It didn't really evolve from "good" to "great" until S3/S4. Not sure if it took them a minute to find their groove, or took me a minute to settle into the rapid-fire pace of their jokes.Biff Pocoroba wrote:This is one I should probably revisit.

Anything involving her ex husband being super corrupt/unethical brought the lulz.
