‘When The Street Lights Go On’ is Quibi’s attempt at a non-fantastical ‘Stranger Things’, taking a young new cast, placing them with established actors, and creating a mystery and world packed full of nostalgia, this time for the 90s. While I still think Quibi’s actual format and whole idea is destined to fail and that […]

Veep Season 7 (2019) – TV Review
In the last decade there have been multiple great comedy shows on TV, especially due to the rapid decline in big screen comedy, but still few manage to come close to the absolute hilarity of ‘Veep’, which closes out its seven season run with a series packed full of surprises, laughs, and occasional emotion. This […]
Veep Season 6 (2017) – TV Review
During the extra time at home provided by the lockdown, I have been using it to watch some shows I hadn’t previously got around to watching before, and the one that has been the stand out, is ‘Veep’. It is the most genuinely laugh out loud funny, controversial, offensive, and brilliant written comedy I have […]
Veep Season 5 (2016) – TV Review
Losing Armando Iannucci as showrunner is enough to send any show off the rails, but instead, this great show just continues to even higher heights.

Veep Season 4 (2015) – TV Review

It is not just a great insight/parody of the behind the scenes chaos of politics, but it is also packed full of great characters that we now know very well, and are fascinated […]
Veep Season 3 (2014) – TV Review
As my binge watch of the show continues on, it is becoming more obvious to me that this is one of the best comedy casts ever put together. All of the characters are so identifiably singular and absolutely hilarious in their own way, and the whole cast just nail their roles. Julia Louis-Dreyfus continues to […]
Veep Season 2 (2013) – TV Review
The first season was very impressive, but in season 2, ‘Veep’ firmly establishes itself as one of the finest comedies of the 21st century. It is so well written, performed, and simply one of the funniest shows I have ever seen. As the story continues to progress this season, the characters continue to come into […]
Veep (2012) – TV Review
‘Veep’ is one of the most respected and awarded comedies of recent times, but it never became a huge hit in the UK (mainly because we had already had ‘The Thick of It’) but with the world now essentially in lock down, I decided it was as good a time as any to give the […]
