Huh, so he is. Strange how he was left off from the rest of the cast on IMDB and appears a day later.

Randall Park isn't listed anywhere in this season of Veep, either on IMDB or anywhere else.

I think Iannucci would have loved that scene— at the beginning of the applause, Selina seems thrilled to be getting the attention, but you can see the dawning realization on her face that it's all going away.

If my fiancee goes to jail, I'd certainly hope that I don't capitalize off his hardships to further my own interests. I strongly disagree that most people would "handle it much like Larry does". Piper is also awful, but that doesn't suddenly make Larry an interesting or even a sympathetic character.

What is dead can never die, baby.

There's also the possibility that that little devil would have figured out something was up if Jon took 'emergency arrival forces' into account in his warplan.

Larry was boring, pretentious, and self-serving. Basically a perfect representation of the genteel, coddled, upper-middle-class white character with no real problems. He was also more or less superfluous, because Piper fulfills that role in a more comedic and immediate way by actually being an inmate.

I was referring to an earlier comment I read that attempted to justify the scenes with all the spilling fruits when she fell down the stairs— but as I said in my first post, that is definitely a liberal interpretation.

I enjoyed Name of the Wind a bit, but even then I could tell Kvothe was hopelessly Mary Sue-ish. It's a shame to hear the subsequent novels are even worse in this aspect.

I feel like the dialogue between Arya and Lady Crane— the time taken for Lady Crane to explain how good she is at taking care of injuries— was the writers' way of trying to explain away Arya's complete recuperation within one day. Unfortunately, it still stretches the imagination that Arya is capable of all those…

The Hound literally pissed on the theory. Def trolling.

I meant generic in the sense that there's nothing particularly "Resident Evil" about it from what I see in the trailer: any company could have made it and I would not be any the wiser.

I'll reserve judgment. The game certainly looks scary, but the trailer was kinda content-free as far as how close to the lore of RE it will be. For the moment it kinda just looks like a generic PT-style horror game.

You're a meme, ma'am.

I'm also partial to "human scaffolding" as another witty-not-vulgar tall joke.

The impression I get from the clip is that there are four 'permanent' writers who happen to be all women (probably the top four names you listed), and the other writers you listed probably just rotate in and out on a freelance basis for a few episodes here and there.

I have to say I agree. Veep is incredibly crude on all sorts of topics (does no one remember the abortion episode? The joke about the kid with AIDS?), so it's kind of an eyeroll to have off-the-cuff race jokes be the reason for a low grade. The worst I can say about the Asian driver joke is that it was kind of lazy.

I feel like I'd go crazy trying to watch TV with someone who's actively trying to guess the plot before it happens, even (especially) if they're accurate.

I was just going to say that. Those pursed lips look uncomfortable.

I'm pretty sure there will still be a CleganeBowl in some form, it just won't be in relation to the trial by combat that was supposed to happen.
