Re: Tele
Anyone seen "Spy"? Apparently it's a Brit TV show and shown on Hulu only.
Guy was telling me about it the other day. I'll check it out this weekend but I'm surprised I've never heard of it.

Do you mean that it is finally coming to an end?
Cannot stand the show House. And it's been going on for years!
I have the first season at home to watch on DVD. I am hoping that I will like this show now that I have purchased it.

Re: Tele
The New York Times had a huge article about this show, featuring what's-his-name (the Italian-British fellow who directs it) and Julia Louis-Dreyfuss (whom I have never cared for). I had never heard of this guy or his previous shows. I had a feeling that Veep wouldn't be too good. I also hated Parks and Recs.

Re: Tele
I'm watching the show House wind itself up.
And it's weird because this season House has been wrong about EVERYTHING. Episode after episode he either fluffs on the diagnosis at the end or doesn't even try because someone else figured it out. And next week we're supposed to believe that he kills Wilson.
Pretty weak season so far.

Re: Tele
As Sally says In the Loop (and Thick of It) is fantastic, but Veep seems watered down, more of a job centric commentary rather than a political centric one that the other series (and film) had. Still, its only had one episode, so you never know. Has anyone else seen it? I am curious how others saw it.

Re: Tele
I'm fairly sure that was mentioned in the article and I tried to see if it was available here, but it wasn't. (My memory might be wrong about that.)
Finally! Done and dusted - cute expression.
From what I've read, isn't that the point of the show? The veep's political party is never mentioned and the show is more about her feelings that nobody appreciates what she does (such as it is), that she feels sidelined, and that the Prez never calls her.

For fans of The Thick of It, it is disappointing, that series was a satire of the Alistair Campbell style, black is white, spin doctoring.

Re: Tele
That show was a huge snooze.
Anyone seen Portlandia? A very strange quirky show, but quite amusing.
