I love Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and very much liked "West Wing" but I saw the first 2 episodes of "Veep" and I didn't find a redeeming feature to it, and not AT ALL funny. Just Washington stereotypes saying "fuck" once per sentence as in "hey, we're on HBO and we can say fuck". I really wanted to like it, but I tried another few minutes here and there and it just does not work for me at all.
