Finished watching Veep on WOW
Last week, I finished watching Veep.
I love every aspect of the series. It can be funny as hell but also can punch you in the stomach. Like Scrubs in the US-Politics.
They started to change the storyline in Season 6, which makes sense at this point. I didn't like the turn so much, but I got used to it.
There is one thing I didn't like from the start. How the Veep Selina is treating her daughter. I know it fits into the tone of the character, but after some “jokes” it was too much for me and an annoying part of the series. As I said, it fits to the tone and the story of the character but, sometime, less is more.
But what was the best part of the show? Clearly Gary and Mike. These characters were sooo goofy, I always laughed out loud when said did something funny. Moreover, the background stuff that was going on. Occasionally, I wasn't following the main story because some characters did something in the background. I wonder how much of the jokes were improvised.
One character that also stood out was Jonah. I liked how he was a self-destructed fool with pure luck. Sadly, the luck was more to keep him in the series. Later in the series, I did not like what he represented, but most of his scenes were also funny. And a bonus point for him, he is a metal guy in the series. 🤘
I can recommend this series to everyone. And I also want to watch it again, someday. :)
