Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Selina Meyer in the series finale of “Veep.” By Hank Stuever Hank Stuever TV critic Email Bio Follow TV critic May 13 at 1:56 AM Spoiler alert: This review discusses the series finale of “Veep.”
But viewers certainly did. In a satisfyingly conclusive, supersized episode “Veep” luxuriated one final time in history-making swerves of political fate, echoing the bizarre events that had previously landed Selina in the Oval Office for a term that was so short it’s why they invented asterisks. For the last two seasons, some viewers have asked how “Veep” could possibly compete with the real headlines of the day. The show’s answer, usually, was to deliver story lines that were inventively absurd and even funnier than anything lampooned on “Saturday Night Live” or in late-night monologues.
Can I repeat it here? Not much of it, except: “I just hate to see smart women throw their political careers away on men who only see them as the [slur for a body part] of least resistance.”
Now kill the show!

Veep creators: Our show echoes Hillary more than TrumpCreators of the “Veep”, Frank Rich and David Mandel join MSNBC’s Ari Melber for a special discussion about Veep’s new season and how comments at Trump’s latest rally were eerily similar to a scene in the hit HBO show. The producers note that when politics appears to mimic themes of the show, “you just kind of go: what is happening?” This is So Dangerous for our beautiful Country. MSNBC That makes absolutely no sense. Did you notice the overflowing crowd to see our President? Probably surpassed the total viewers now watching your show.

More than 150 years after her death, a former slave finally has the memorial she deservedLucy Foster was born into slavery in Boston and was freed when she was 16. She was buried in an unmarked grave in 1845. Thanks to a class of high school students in Massachusetts, Lucy Foster now has a headstone. Hopefully Democratic Party paid for it. No Republicans owned slaves in 1845. There are people being forced into slavery now. But you won't talk about that. Because it doesn't fit the Democrat narrative. But people are being brought into this country by coyotes. And the Dems want to make it easier for them... weird Thats back then when democrats were running slave trades.
