Thank the HBO gods this was better than "Girls" was! It has some tinkering to do, but it's already more funny than cringe-worthy. Unlike many comedies on the air these days....
"Thank the HBO gods this was better than "Girls" was!" - That wasn't hard, Girls is very (what's the word I'm looking for...) peculiar show. For me not funny at all. As for "veep" I see potential here.
it reminded me of Parks and recreation a little bit, which is not a bad thing in my case. I laughed at some jokes like the "glasses are like wheelchairs for eyes" and some other parts.... not bad It will get a 2nd week viewing from me.
Unlike Girls this was actually funny! I am a huge fan of Thick of It and In The Loop so this is naturally playing to all the things I love, think it has real potential
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
a well done start to a very promising comedy.
ReplyDeleteA couple of rough spots, but overall, funny with a lot of promise
