Season 7, cut to 3 years later from season 5, as season 6 was 1 year later and it was the second year, so two years completel till coming season 7. Start season 7 as a one year later and that will make it the 3 rd year of Laura Montez Presidency. In near end of season 7 start Selina's second re-election campaign and end the season with a good hope for her becoming President. Start season 8 with some good, bad, witty Selins's stunts to win the election. Few many scene of Roger Furlong fight with her and fighting against the Secretary of state Doyle and at the end of the season 8 the finale season of the VEEP, make her the President again. End season 8 episode 10, the finale episode as taking her oath and sitting in the President Chair in the Oval office and done... Season end with a bang....

I enjoyed The Westwing and The Newsroom. So I gave Veep a chance. And boy, was I disappointed. Extremely unlikable characters and lame jokes. I don't know what to say, it's just not funny. It's like a few deplorables from Texas decided to write a script. It's full of swearing and profanity and while I normally don't necessarily dislike profanity in series or films per se, in this case I do. Because it does nothing to the plot, nothing to the scenery, nothing to the feel. It's just showing some assholes being assholes. I don't know, maybe the writers thought that this is funny, but it's just annoying. It seems like some 14 year old teenagers teamed up with their grandparents, who just love to sing the old Dixie-song, to write the scripts to this series.I ended up hating Selina Meyers and her whole team. Why should I watch a series full of losers and pricks?It's lame and immature and at no point, never ever, does it reach the class of The Westwing and The Newsroom. This is just garbage. Dumb entertainment for dumb people.

I will be brief, as there are splendid reviews already in this forum.This is high quality, smart political comedy, including all kinds of smiles and laughs available to human response. It is political incorrectness validated as the political norm. The script, the direction and general tone, the cast, the actors, the fast paced dialogues full of wit. Please do watch it and enjoy this show which gets better as the seasons go by.Julia Louis-Dreyfus is AMAZING, she makes you love such an atrocious character with a shameless array of self-assumed faults and horrible traits--- which happens to be the President of US, and always manages to stay afloat despite her overt skill to make all the wrong decisions and fail at every move.But the cast is second to none. Every single member of the team excels and is a gem. It's a terrific-characters parade! You cannot stop laughing, sighing, raising your eyebrows in amazement.My congratulations to the wonderful Selina and to Armando Ianucci. I had my doubts about the American simile to The Thick of It, but I have to admit they both made a masterpiece here!

HBO continues its assault on "paint by numbers" television with arguably one of the funniest and most entertaining half-hour comedies created to date. It is no wonder that the channel continues to dominate the Emmys every year with nominations and wins (of which, Veep has 26 and 4 respectively in a mere 38 episodes).A premise developed originally for ABC about Washington-insiders, the show follows begrudging VP Selina Meyer (Julia-Louis Dreyfus) after her failed primary run. It plays off of her quick-witted, yet misfit staff and exposes the seedy, backstabbing nature of Washington politics. While the show is occasionally dark, it is never bleak and routinely comes to life with heartfelt moments and unforgettable one-liners.The true brilliance of the show is the snappy writing, a foul-mouthed Sorkin homage, provided by an SWG-Award winning team (2013) headed Armando Iannucci. My only fear for this show is that as it continues to garner praise and awards, the cast's popularity will grow, and like most great shows (Arrested Development), production will become more difficult due to scheduling conflicts. Until that day comes Veep still stands alone as the funniest show on television and must watch TV. And I'm not just "busting your f**king lady-balls."
