Manic is the word you're looking for. Also as someone living in DC this show is sadly so much more accurate to life than west wing. but super funny and one of my favs. would also recommend Death of Stalin a film from the same writer.

Oh my god, this episode actually makes me nauseous, even knowing it's fiction. It took me multiple attempts to get into this show and I think this second episode might have been the reason! Ironically enough, there is another, much later episode that I also get sick to my stomach watching because I know that one of the guest actors had food poisoning.....and they look it! I somehow get sympathy-sickness!

My first watch, and I have to say: Though foul language certainly doesn't bother me (Sopranos and Wire would be blandly inauthentic without it), Veep thus far feels like the writers are (over)using it just because they can. We get it, it's HBO. And the bathroom humor is kinda lame. I'm confident it gets better!

Ha!!! Starting to watch the actual reaction now! Thanks for the chance to watch the uncensored edit!

Re: Kevin L. - Whereas I can't promise you that the profanity is going to go away, I can tell you that - like most shows - it snowballs and gets better and better, season by season, at least until season 5. Not that the last season or two are lousy, but I seem to remember season 2 - 5 being progressively better with each season, each one topping the last. It took me a little bit to fully get into it, and even a couple of failed attempts, sticking with it because I wanted to see JLD and Tony Hale work together. But eventually it won me over and now I've seen the series at least twice! It's written by British writers for the most part, which I think is interesting! You can definitely tell that it's from some of the same people who wrote Succession. We're still very, very early in. I'd say hang in there! The acting is really incredible, and a lot of the side characters that you might not care about yet or find annoying will start to flesh out. When I first started the show, I hated everybody! :D

Ha! Just finished! Happy you noticed Anna Chomsky from "My Girl"! I think she ends up being brilliant in this show. They all do, actually! Frickin' Jonah! That guy. He needs to do a TV series with Cousin Greg! Don't you think? They could play brothers in a Civil War movie, revamp their entire careers! :P.

Kevin here: I agree that the use of profanity is excessive (it doesn't really bother me), but I do think that's kind of the point: a reflection of the kind of people our leaders are when they are away from cameras and show their true colors.

100%, that's how I see it too. You always hear about McCain or LBJ cursing a blue streak, for instance.

This is one of those shows that keeps getting even better. So excited for this watch.
