The reason it was funny is because the White House has always been full of incompetent and sleazy people. That's not the problem. It's more that the comedy was rooted in DC bureaucracy and the basic functions of government, and the current administration is throwing it out the window.

Jonah would totally be into NS black metal bands for years without realizing what they stood for

White House Press Secretary sounds like it would be the worst job in the world. Especially in this era of Trump. Did the things the Obama Press Secretaries say make as bigger headlines as the current guy?

No, because they didn't gently caress up worse than Mike and they weren't tasked with making a completely insane administration palatable

Lots of good stuff. Richard never masturbated and Jonah didn't hit puberty till 19.

"Me too!" is the line read of the season.

All you Splett fans NEED to watch Detroiters. Sam Richardson is so funny in it.

As someone from the area who loves Richard I tried and found it painfully unfunny after three episodes.

This show has the deepest bench on tv and y'all are worried about Selina's likability, idgi

I think they bumped it for the Leftovers finale and so it could get on the same schedule as Silicon Valley

Jonah's head violently hitting the ceiling repeatably is funnier than it should be.

They went for the Sideshow Bob Rakes effect

Jonah vs. Selina! Are they the same party? Is this going to be a primary battle or a presidential battle?

Or is Selina going to be Jonah's VP?

Either way, it looks like the show runners know they don't have too many seasons left, and they are going to give some awesome fan service on the way out.

Since Montez will presumably seek reelection I would expect it's a primary battle.

Is it just me being sensitive, or should they tone down the "Selina says mean things offhandedly to Catherine" stuff? It's like they ramped to Family Guy/Meg proportions this year.

Same with Furlong and Will. Many of my favorite lines in the show come from them but it became repetitive having that once an episode.

That's about the right number of seasons for a comedy
