COMEDY
Multiple-award winning actress
Julia Louis-Dreyfus has been
captivating audiences with her
impeccable comic timing since
she played Seinfeld’s Elaine.
Veep’s Selina Meyer is rather a
different sort of role – she’s the
ditzy vice-president of the United
States, and Louis-Dreyfus gives as
much to the character as we’ve
come to expect.
Those with a more anarchic
sense of humour might appreciate
two new episodes of It’s Always
Sunny in Philadelphia or Eastbound and Down. Also available
are The Big Bang Theory, Girls,
and Hello Ladies.
