The Take
Yes, Veep is worth watching. Slop Score: 24.
Armando Iannucci's HBO series skewers DC as pure self-serving chaos with no moral high ground or tidy arcs. Julia Louis-Dreyfus powers the machine through seven seasons of escalating absurdity.
The Verdict
Watch Veep for the dialogue alone and the total refusal to pander. It leaves you laughing and slightly more jaded about every institution.
Watch it. Slop Score: 24.
