Criticism

" Sure, you could Armando Iannucci already accuse a certain lack of originality. On the other hand, The Thick of It is a satire on the everyday life of the political operation of such a grandiose concept that there can never have too much consequences. No matter where they come from and under what title they run. Veep provides the pilot with a very enjoyable half hour, showing a Julia Louis -Dreyfus in top form. In the future, the series one piece could possibly still be biting. "
