“Veep,” HBO's Best Comedy, Returns for a Seventh and Final Season in New Trailer

Written by: Miguel Torrellas

After dominating the “Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series” category at the Primetime Emmy Awards for the better part of the last decade, the wonderful Julia Louis-Dreyfus returns as Selina Meyer for one last time.  

“Veep,” Armando Iannucci’s American baby that started as an adaptation of his own beloved take on the British Parliament “The Thick of It,” is undoubtedly one of the funniest shows on HBO as well as one of the network’s sharpest political satires. With six successful seasons under its belt, it is hard to think of a world without the series’ virtuoso dispatch of insults and continuous ballet of incompetence to help us survive our own dumpster-fire reality.

Nonetheless, we’ll be treated to a final batch of ten episodes about Selina’s second shot at the presidency as well as Jonah Ryan’s own misguided campaign for the top job. With showrunner David Mandel, who took over after Iannucci decided to leave at the end of season four, the show has gone into higher spectacles and even more experimental episodes like the season five’s excellent “Kissing Your Sister,” so we are confident that audiences will receive a bombastic and appropriate conclusion for this saga of governmental idiocy.

Watch the trailer for the seventh and final season of “Veep” bellow and leave us your thoughts in the comments.
