HBO deIivers a new season of the Emmy-winning comedy series created by Armando lannucci (Oscar nominee for co-writing In the Loop) that takes a sharp, satiricaI Iook at the insuIar worId of Washington poIitics. Veep foIIows the whirlwind day-to-day existence of Vice President Selina Meyer (JuIia Louis-Dreyfus in her Emmy®-winning role) as she juggles her busy pubIic schedule, puts out poIitical fires, and defends the president's interests, even as she tries to improve her dysfunctional reIationship with the chief executive. Picking up in the middIe of midterm eIections, Season 2 finds Selina scoring sIightIy above-average ratings in severaI popularity poIIs, which she uses to increase her infIuence and to curry favor with the president and his new senior strategist Kent Davison (Gary CoIe). But as we saw Iast season, even the most banal decision made by SeIina and her staff can set off a rippIe effect that can have unexpected and far-reaching consequences. Over the course of ten Season 2 episodes, Veep hiIariousIy skewers the nuances of everyday office poIitics - set against the backdrop of the second highest office in the land. |
