February 13, 2016 at 7:03 am #367644This was basically 30 seconds of nothing. Just like Silicon Valley’s teaser. But plesantly surprised to see them using their writing emmy to promote the show instead of sup.actor. That will be inevitable but I’m not sure if I want to see more of Laurie. I want Simmons and Walsh!

“If I didn’t know Veep’s creator had left after last season, I wouldn’t be able to tell from the s5 premiere. The show is the show.”

Good to hear. Hopefully David doesn’t try to emulate Ianucci though. The important thing is to make the characters stay coherent.

Very excited for the new season of Veep and encouraged to hear Sepinwall didn’t noticed a change in the show, or at least the first episode(s), with Mandel at the helm.

April 21, 2016 at 7:29 am #1201819358A few rave reviews for the new season:
Rolling Stone: http://www.rollingstone.com/tv/features/veep-making-america-hate-again-20160421
Indiewire: http://www.indiewire.com/article/veep-season-5-review-julia-louis-dreyfus-20160420, who says Veep and Louis-Dreyfus should both repeat at the Emmys based on the episodes he’s seen, and points to episode four “Mother” as a submission for JLD.
And Tim Goodman (THR), who ahead of his review (I assume) tweeted: I’ve been watching #Veep episodes and dying. It’s so wrong. It’s so ridiculously funny. Like, pausing constantly to fall over and wheeze… I rewound that like five times. #Veep
