Television Review -- Veep

Television Review -- Veep

I am going to try and keep this brief, but this has to be one of my all-time favorite series ever made. Veep was described by the creator Armando Iannucci as an office comedy but the office happens to be in Washington D.C. I will say this show is not for the faint of heart. There is a lot of heavy language in this show, but at the same time it is also what makes it great. The intricacy of the hilarious insults makes this show something that I watch at least once a year. My favorite thing about this series is there is no clear revelation of party or real events. This series does not focus on the politics, but rather the people in the politics. The entire cast are villains, but somehow all of them are my favorite.

From the editor: This is a very good question and we apologize for not catching that wasn't in there. We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITORComment author: Debra J RidenourComment text: So sorry for your loss.
