Hmm... I was a bit underwhelmed by the episode, but it does seem to be bubbling up nicely!

Some great scenes in this weeks episode, but it still seems to be struggling to match the previous 3 seasons.

Maybe because this is the first real dynamic change, Richard not part of the group, that scene was uncomfortable. But the stuff with Dinesh was ace, plus Gav Belson...always gold. biggrin

Veep is definitely not as funny as it was and they are resorting far more to obscenities and vulgarity. It's still watchable though. It's difficult to parody politics here right now as there is a real life parody playing out every day in the White House.

SV is still brilliant.

SV fans might want to check out Loaded on C4 - dare I say a Brit version of SV (loosely)

THat looks like such a pile of st, I hope they have put all the wk bits in the trailer and not the best jokes, because that would be hideous.

Saw Loaded last night - quite enjoyed it, the characters worked well together, without trying too hard if you know what I mean.

Genius, can't believe the quality of the writing in this show. Reminds me of the Brink, criminal how that was stcanned in favour of Ballers.

Qin Yang (sp?) is such a lil st, actually felt sorry for Erlich there.

Jin Yang? I really like his character - every time Erlich thinks he's getting one over him the roles are reversed!!!

It was a great episode - some really funny moments.

Well I don't dislike Jin Yang, but he is a st, he has always gotten one over Erlich, ERlich more often than not looses, when he lucked into this new thing, it was the first bit of luck for a while, and then he gets scuppered again, I do like both characters, but Jin Yang has gotten people fired and slept there for a year for free amongst other things, he's a whirlwind of bad karma for people. biggrin

I loved the tabs/spaces episode, so it was good to have it referenced in this week's programme. The story arcs are great.

yes
It has the feel ( I may be wrong) of the idea of a single writer, or a writing duo, somebody who has a vision, as all great works are, not a team of writers trying to hit a spot.

It's written by the chap(s?) that created Beavis and Butthead.
