I'll defend the subliminal messaging- normally when shows do that kind of stuff it's like Manchurian Candidate and Garibaldi would go try to assassinate Sheridan with cold lifeless eyes or something.
Instead, he went and said a bunch of logical stuff and it truly was his own mind and heart speaking- he BELIEVED it, but

So I guess I'm the only one then who got chills seeing how ISN turned the report into one about abductions and alien experiments.
Yes we all knew the report would be negative but they went so far into batshit insane X-Files alien conspiracy theory that it was shocking- in a good way.
See what Fox News does now and

Yeah I don't even know the point of Thirdspace other than TNT had just purchased a shiny new toy and needed to squeeze content out of it.

I like Illiusion of Truth.
Yes it's the same footage in a different context- that is the point.
The only thing it has in common with And Now For A Word is that there are "journalists." Otherwise they are completely nothing alike and about different things.
Illusion of Truth is about our heroes losing a battle they were

I know I've and others said this before but my god is Bester the best or what. Freaking CHEKOV coming back to sci-fi TV as an old man and being this devious/smarmy/dickish and SO much fun is my favorite thing that ever happened to TV.

Agree on Dukat, that actor is perfect for this.

You're assuming that's the case. The public and media attention span these days is smaller than that of a goldfish. It's likely she said plenty of stuff about the issue, just know one remembers or cares now that she's in "pre-campaign" mode and the president made the 24 hr news cycle with his apparent change of heart.

Right after he cut the cake and before they showed the dove, my wife asked "how do the doves not die?" Sometimes the show does answer questions immediately.

I don't think it's so much at being loved, I think it's just part of her and the Tyrells slowing establishing their own power base and taking root in King's Landing. That's the kind of big picture politicking that Joffrey and Cersei do not understand due to their source of power being money, but the Tyrells are more

He was featured prominently at the end of season 2 during the Battle of Blackwater. Cersei was sitting with him on her lap and a vial of poison, ready to kill him and herself if they lost, until Tywin "saved" them.

Olenna was opposed to Loras marrying Cersei and had to be blackmailed into it by Tywin.

The reason I like the spiritual advisor is that it shows just how myopic these 1%ers are. Not just the typical business yes-men, but even this "religious" guy telling him that he is inherently enlightened. Also that he's basically another version of the dentist- everybody's glomming on to the alt-universe of Silicon

How did Londo know what? That Vir wanted Morden's head on a pike?
I just took it as a "happy" coincidence.

The reasons Veep isn't and doesn't have to conform to the party-line abortion politics you're outlining:

"I am gonna be UPdating more than actually dating."

The Season 4 finale does imply that humans and Minbari turn out much better.

Sorry I got my "person" terminology muddled.
It's more the "shooter" part that I get bored with. Though yes, I do like 3rd person action/adventure games most, but I just finally got around to Portal 2 which is 1st person and its high reputation is well earned.

It would have been years between those two scenes, it's not fair to expect most people to remember.

I don't think it was clunky at all, I found the scene rather effective.
The clunky part of the episode was him arguing with the Shadows during the final showdown.
