Veep is ok...I think moreso because there is nothing else to watch these days. I watched the first 6 episodes of Girls and think it's kind of meh...again, nothing else to watch lately.
Also can't wait until The Newsroom hits. Aaron Sorkin is Midas imo.
Premiere just dropped.
Fucking A awesome imo. The opening sequence was an immaculate oratory on the actual state of the union. The rest of the show focussed on the media's role in getting it there.
This performance combined with Dumb and Dumber may make Jeff Daniels the greatest actor ever.

Thought the first episode was great...the second episode, meh. The dialogue between the young blonde girl who fucked up and the dude that likes her/covered for her is so ridiculously over the top that it ruins the rest on the show, which is pretty good.
Just downloaded and started watching The Story of Dick Proenneke-Alone in the Wildnerness. Just something to have on in the background while doing stuff around the house.
What this guy could do and build with just about nothing is incredible.
Wife just came up with a great line:
"Sometimes you just want this guy to say 'Fuck it. Today, I'm just going to fuck the dog and have a few beers. This working all the time is bullshit.'"

btw, not sure if anyone's mentioned it in here but 'Bored to Death' is a pretty good show. strange comedy about a guy who decides to start moonlighting as a private detective.
Found what might be the best action series on tv. If you're into spec ops, 24, type shows, British series called Strike Back. A believe there's a US version on hbo, not sure if that's any good, but the uk one is sick.
i read the other day that american horror story season 2 will be completely different with different actors, different plot, etc. i watched a few episodes of season one but i kind of gave up because i couldn't quite understand where it was going to go and how it could be a continuing series. now that i know the above fact, i may give it another shot. it was interesting at least.
Just hoping it does not devolve into a mess like so many of the shows I though had promise. Heroes is the prime example of a great concept that went off the rails . . .

+1, I was worried I was the only one.
I Also think Veep is very funny.
That's one fucked up TV show! Just watched Season 1 online...Jessica Lange's character is downright spooky.
Looks good.
Also can't wait until The Newsroom hits. Aaron Sorkin is Midas imo. It still pains me that Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip lived such a short life.

Aaron Sorkin strikes again.
EDIT: For those mildly interested, a link to the transcript of the opening sequence monologue.
