‘Veep’ Returns To HBO This April, Watch The Trailer Now!
It’s a new season of Selina Meyers and her merry band of White House staffers. And Jonah.
After last season’s question of ‘Who won the election?’ the answer is: No One. “It’s a tied election.” As President Meyers so eloquently points out in the season’s trailer.
The new season will introduce a new mission for Selina. It has to be something her opponent wouldn’t do, like driving sober, or using the facilities without getting a hernia. The president has to look presidential, and usually that means knowing what medal an olympic team has won and not rubbing it in that they didn’t win first place, but third. She covers it up, or you know, not, in the Selina Meyer fashion.
Jonah is back. He’s like Herpes. Or a mrsa infection. Regardless of what disease Jonah equates himself to, no one is getting rid of Jonah Ryan. Selina is dating? Sleeping with John Slattery, yet she’s not going to be ‘that’ kind of President.
Points on the President’s schedule she’s going to have to deal with on this season of Veep? Chinese hackers. A massive drop in the stock market which leads them to potentially being Greece…”The country not the musical.” Last but not least, the bank bailouts, which according to the President is like having a man decide what part of his male anatomy he wants gone first. And according to Ben Cafferty, played by Kevin Dunn, he “could lose them both. I mean at this stage, they’re just purely decorative.”
Take a look the trailer for the new season. Season 5 premieres on April 24, 10:30pm, on HBO.
