I cannot wait for this show!

I need to watch season 2 again though because I don't remember Selina not being VP anymore?

This show is by far one of my favorite shows currently on TV. The cast works together very well and the writing I feel is top notch.

I actually kind of guessed on that one, I assumed she stepped down to run or will in the first episode, but now that I think about it it may be possible for an incumbent VP to run.

Oops.

I thought the President decided not to run for a second term and Selina was going to run for President when his first term is up. If I remember right, there was still two years to go before that though?

If this is as much of an improvement as 2 was from 1 - and advance reviews indicate it will be - then it could end up as one of my favourite comedies of the year. And I'm only just realising now how much I grew to adore every member of the cast last time.

I can't see Jonah just disappearing, he'll either latch on to someone like Furlong's staff or become an annoying non-journalist. I'd prefer the first one, it makes it much more plausible for him to show up in scenes with people who aren't Mike.

I lie awake, staring out at the bleakness of Megadon.
The worst man line was definitely my favorite of the episode, although "all my orgasms have come at once" was a pretty great one, especially since it calls back to The Thick of It.

I have to say that I was kind of surprised that there weren't more really funny bits, though. Like, the first time I watched the episode in season two where Jonah is complaining about being called Jonad, I laughed so hard I nearly pissed myself. This episode was funny and cringe-inducing, but there wasn't any really amazing back-and-forth.

[edit] It was nice to see Mike happy, though :unsmith:
