NEW SHOWS Veep – “Justice” (B+) A classic show misunderstand, with Mike panicking to the press and saying Selina’s being considered to fill the vacant Supreme Court seat, which would be an interesting direction but I’m glad the show squashed that … Continue reading

NEW SHOWS Crashing – “Julie” (B+) My least favorite episode, but still quite good, as everything hits the reset button. But Pete is still so likable, even as he’s talking to Rachael Ray’s mom about blowjobs. CURRENT SHOWS The Mindy Project – “A … Continue reading
