As someone who has become close to being a modern-urban-middle-class type myself, some of the sketches are a bit too close for comfort. The parenting ones mainly. And the hipster ones for when I was younger.

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.
I found it disappointing. Weak gags and all seemed pointless.

Has anyone seen "The Bridge"?
I`m hooked on these Danish series, in fact anything European with subtitles.

I did. Had to question my husband about whether the f-word is really used that much in the workplace here, as it was quite Tourettesy in a British sort of way. It seemed like a "vehicle" for Julia Louis Dreyfus, like Episodes was for Matt Leblanc. Quite amusing, I`m always interested in US/UK crossover things.

I have not seen it on Netflix. In fact I have not been able to source a version with English subs without buying the DVD set (which I am not prepared to do on a few good reviews)
One problem is with it having so many names :Bron/Broen/Bridge
edit: this got me looking again - its finally on UK TV (BBC 4)

Re: Tele
Does anyone watch any of The Real Housewives shows?
I watch Orange County, New Jersey, New York, and Beverly Hills.
