I loved Julia Louis Dreyfus in Seinfeld and enjoyed her role in The New Adventures of Old Christine. I don't know how I missed her latest role as Selina Meyer in Veep until I saw Season 3 advertised on TV last at the beginning of April.
I didn't even know we were HBO subscribers, and I certainly had no idea that I could watch TV online. I might have suspected that online watching was possible, but I had no earphones and didn't want to isolate myself in another room where I could turn up the sound.
Turns out Bob's earphones for his unused mp 3 player are a perfect fit, and I embarked on a weekend of binge watching, a first time experience for me.
A week later, I've finished Season 2. I haven't laughed so much since my annual Christmas Vacation intro to the holiday season. Veep characters actually remind me of people I once knew when I was a staffer in the Canadian House of Commons and the Minnesota House of Representatives.
Certainly "must watch" TV for any political junkie with a sense of humor.
