This is seriously some of the finest acting I've ever seen. I know she received tremendous critical praise for her role, but I hope people truly realize the magnitude of her performance as Selina Meyer. This scene in particular is just masterful, staggering acting.
These are probably my most favorite scenes in this whole show. It really drove us to see how much Selina wants the presidency and Tom’s “what ARE you???” And her unmoved expression is fucking amazing.
I loved the finale so much. They really saved her most Selina moments for last. I mean after all the shenanigans they went through in seven seasons it is just so impressive that the writers knew how to still one up her narcissism and manipulation tactics and show us this pure 24 karat of demon gold version of her.
@@isaachurtado5030 I mean, she was feckless and incompetent and narcissistic in the early seasons, but I didn't think she was EVIL. In Season 7, though, she really turned it up to 11. lol
Too true! I just finished binging the series today. No doubt Selina's a monster but Tom definitely had this coming. Watching her salt the wound with a smile is stone cold but satisfying. Hugh Laurie really sold the indignation though, you can almost forget how 2 faced his character is and feel for him.
It isn’t the betrayal that bothers him, he knows that’s how the game is played. It’s the fact that she has forever destroyed his life for something he didn’t do. It’s made very clear that it was a consensual affair between him and his chief of staff. Selina convinced her to tell the nation that it was sexual harassment.
Except that she didn't ''betray'' him, she set him up and turned affair (which is bad thing morally but not a crime legally) into sex scandal/abuse/harassment story. She didn't care about his employee nor did she care about the truth. He was a jerk and pos and cheater and sexist and all that - but was he sexual predator as she purpoted?
Julia is where raw acting talent emerges from. She doesn't just exemplify great acting, she's talent personified. The sheer versatility she displayed in the opening season is mind-boggling.
Those last eps I think showed her desperation to now lose again. Like she was def evil and not giving a shit what it took in these last eps especially after Ben had his heart attack
I actually really enjoyed this twist and darker side to her (which had always been there but was finally unleashed by her greed for power). Firstly this scene really showed the amazing quality of the script and acting. But also Tom James was a POS and Selina was never taken seriously by him and was continuously used or played by him so he could get ahead. He had no respect for her achievements or status as president. I loved seeing him get completely shafted by her. He deserved it. He even tries to use his ‘pregnant wife...’ to play a sympathy card and limit his reputational damage. Boo fucking hoo. If he’d had any respect for her he’d never have done it. Selina’s cackle as he’s leaving is complete gold.
@southerncajuncharm Both of these comments are sort of the entire point of the show right? she's desperate for the presidency to the point of selling out anything and anyone. and in the end she gets it, but it all proves utterly futile, because there was nothing deeper than the surface pursuit of power. And obviously tom james is the same, he just wasnt prepared for how much more desperate she was for the title than he was. Also, it was comedy gold, but is a former presidents death getting usurped by a celebrity that meaningful? Hell, most people dont know that mother teresa died on the same day as princess diana. celebrity is a fickle thing
@southerncajuncharm Actually Tom Hanks died after the funnel is over. We all know how it works, We do not bury dead President immediately, their coffin will place in Capitol Hill for some days, and then the ceremony in capital hill, then go to the final resting place. When the funeral is over, the news circle normally end. Unless she died exactly same day as Tom Hanks, then it may be a problem. And it may be a good thing for her also, If she is a failed President without anything to show off, end the news circle earlier will make sure people feel sorry her but not think of bad things she did.
You mean the free psychic reading for your pet? Yeah that spun me out as well... my box set of Veep doesn't have that bit in this episode though, which is weird.
He might have been a pos and a jerk, but did he deserve to be outed for something he's likely not? Cheating around is wrong but it's not criminal offense, nor it automatically means he coersed or manipulated his employee into this.
What's crazy here is... Tom is acting like a victim of Selina's game of chess. But we also realize that he's being accused of workplace sexual harassment-- a horrible thing in itself. It's brilliant that the ethical dilemmas in this season get this dark.
During Election Night and the Congressional Vote for president, she gets within a hair’s length of being elected president in her own right, but forces in and out of her control deny her with what she wants. The convention episodes marked a turning point for her and its fucking AWESOME. There was no humiliating catastrophe waiting for her at the finish line this time but she made sure there was at least one for Tom James. Fucking COLD.
I mean she humiliated herself even worse than anyone else. In her last ditch effort to get the presidency she sold out literally everyone who ever was on her team. This episode is the turning point when massive narcissim finally turned into full on psychopathy. "What are you?" is an appropriate question to direct at the absolute demon she has become.
I just remember sitting in my dorm room in awe of this entire episode. EVERYTHING was tied up incredibly well, and we saw just how far Selina would go at every angle. Magnificent
How is her convincing his press secretary of holding him accountable for his actions evil? If she'd orchestrated for him to have an affair or lied about it then she would be evil but Tom James kind of brought this onto himself.
I'm glad someone else saw the truth of it all. Men in power think they hold the cards; all Selena did was keep it real with his secretary 🤷🏾♀️ . The secretary did the rest.
“The gash of least resistance” is one of the most intense things I’ve ever heard come out of a woman’s mouth lol My friends and I tell every manner of offensive, hideous, “cancellable” joke…but I’ve never heard one of them plumb those depths quite as effectively…
Can you upload the scene between Selina, Amy and Kent when Amy and Kent are begging Selina to not ask Jonah to be her Veep? Julia was brilliant in that scene.
Just think, if Selina had just accepted Tom brushing her off about the night of the green shoes in S4E5 and let it die, none of this would've ever happened.
He was running for the presidential nomination ticket against Selina and she butchered his chances after he’d tried to sabotage her campaign numerous times. They’d also had an on-off affair over many years which he’d spilled in a book deal (and he’d always played on her attraction to him to gain some sort of political advantage). It was basically him being held accountable for the first time in his life by someone he thought he could manipulate, so as a privileged career politician, he lost it that his shitty behaviour finally came home to roost when he was in touching distance of the nomination.
This show is seriously funny because of how realistic it is. In a seriousness, you gotta admit how fucked up this world when a woman can simply lie and say she was taken advantage of and ruin a man’s career just like that.
This one didn't lie though. He was her boss and took advantage. And stats show that over 90% of the time people who make these claims are telling the truth.
Gary seemed so proud of Selina here .. little did the poor guy knows he's next
He always hated Tom, so it was also satisfaction in seeing his downfall
she sold her soul giving him up
If he really REALLY knew selena, then he would've known she would eventually do such a thing to him as well....
This is seriously some of the finest acting I've ever seen. I know she received tremendous critical praise for her role, but I hope people truly realize the magnitude of her performance as Selina Meyer. This scene in particular is just masterful, staggering acting.
Gotta admit the psychic reading ad at the end really caught me off guard
Same😂😂😂😂
I’m already a clairvoyant when it comes to my Lilly bean. Because there is nothing in her head at all.
That's one hell of a way to advertise. Didn't see it coming, I wonder if this pet psychic does humans too.
Even the way Julia adjusts her tone of voice into a deep rasp is genius.
Where does she do that?
"Let's frack the crap out of it." Such a simple, but smart line.
THE GASH OF LEAST RESISTANCE

Good to see Kim Wexler is doing well after Saul's arrest
His american accent is so goood
“while he drowns your little mermaid back tat in a pool of jizz and admires his own reflection” jesus.
She really turned evil the last 3-4 episodes.
She always was evil.
All of us would be lol
If I ever go into politics I want to be just like her. Lol

@@alexdrakemamiehall6355 i think she always was. The desperation of being the one and only chance for her to be president revealed who she really was.
Tom James picked a fight with an opponent he was not prepared for……..

Hugh Laurie really sold the indignation though, you can almost forget how 2 faced his character is and feel for him.
Love how James betrays her like five times and is always like “oh, well”, but she betrays him once and he freaking loses it 😆😆😆
It isn’t the betrayal that bothers him, he knows that’s how the game is played.
It’s the fact that she has forever destroyed his life for something he didn’t do.

@@yevgeniyaleshchenko849 the other things he is. But how is he sexist?
I'm ngl this scene was satisfying af. but when she gave Gary up - god, that was heartbreaking.
Such a great scene!!
Best ending for Kim Wexler.

Julia is where raw acting talent emerges from. She doesn't just exemplify great acting, she's talent personified. The sheer versatility she displayed in the opening season is mind-boggling.
...not just in the opening
This is top tier comedy and insults. Even the insults are so well crafted that could be art.
Is nobody gonna talk about the fucking psychic pet reading shit at the end 😂😂
Gary's expression was everything
That's why he deserves to be sold out by the person he put on a pedestal
@@zaztayyib1260 No, he still doesn't, come on. He was wrong here, yet it wasn't him who set James up, nor he embezzled funds from her foundation.
@@yevgeniyaleshchenko849 absolutely. Loyalty can be blinding
That “toodle-o” was PERFECT.
That's the gradual shift to darkness we wanted in GoT, HBO. Not a single ham fisted scene on a CGI dragon. Take notes !
The Montana delegation looking scared for their lives sends me every time
Selina always had a dark side
Those last eps I think showed her desperation to now lose again. Like she was def evil and not giving a shit what it took in these last eps especially after Ben had his heart attack
watching this back to back along with GOT is amazing, Selena is like a Comedy version of Danaerys. they both strike to be the top of power.
Really turns my hydrant on
This is my favourite scene in the entire series. Harrowing and brutal.

Psychic readings for pets is an insane concept. But it was a funny ending to the video to be fair.
I love when she is like ‘excuse me…’ like Tom’s interruption is nothing
Tom James really deserved this, however poor Gary was a victim of Selena's destructive ambition
Been looking for this scene for ages! Thanks for uploading, underrated channel
1:55 "HE DID WHAT!?" 🤣🤣☠️☠️
I guess she didn't find him sponge worthy.
The look on her face when Tom barges innn 😭😭
Tom James is so screwed there’s also a television behind him 😂He can’t avoid watching her statement no matter which way he turns.
We're not acknowledging the pet psych at the end huh, mmmmkay.
I searched for this scene. This scene is my favorite scene in the entire show
kim wexler went from tom james to Saul Goodman
What's crazy here is... Tom is acting like a victim of Selina's game of chess. But we also realize that he's being accused of workplace sexual harassment-- a horrible thing in itself. It's brilliant that the ethical dilemmas in this season get this dark.
My favorite part is that her lawyer at the press conference is Selena’s college friend
Selina was screwed so much by these people at the end that she did not care anymore😂
Sorry, hold on✋.. that took me a second to get my head around hearing Bertie Wooster say the C word......Hugh!!😳😳😳🙉 😉😂

Well she kinda scared the chief of staff into saying that by insisting that Tom James would replace her with another vagina
@@iandariff641 I mean that’s just the truth, isn’t it?
Two wrongs don't make a right. She manipulated the situation to benefit her - while pretending she cared about his staffer.

Tom James had it coming.
One of the best scenes!
“So great”
this is what tom deserved. how DARE HE try to steal the presidency from selina.
They’re both trashy ppl. But obviously, as a viewer, we’re somewhat rooting for Selina.
Trashy? selina was so honest with others.
Nice play, Giselle. Viktor sends his regards.
LOL
Miss Saint-Claire gets them everytime.
I loved her in this show
Julia Louis-Dreyfus is a tour de force this entire series but you have to admire Hugh Laurie's accent work. Impeccable
Selina was savage there fuckin awesome
Dr House, Kim Wexler, Elaine Benes, and Buster Bluth all in one show
So emotional right this is why we need a Woman in office
Tom was just mad cause he got bested. He was just as conniving as Selena
wtf is that at the end?
I'll vote for a politician who able to come out with such incredible insult. lol, Even Gary is impress!
Didn't people already do that with Boris Johnson?
Can you upload the scene between Selina, Amy and Kent when Amy and Kent are begging Selina to not ask Jonah to be her Veep? Julia was brilliant in that scene.

Just found out that, that Seinfeld chic, Julia Louie Dreyfuss is a Transformer.
Just think, if Selina had just accepted Tom brushing her off about the night of the green shoes in S4E5 and let it die, none of this would've ever happened.
they need to be protected…for drilling purposes. 😅
WHat I see is Buster and His brother's supposed blind lover DA and Kim Wexler
Selina Meyer, Kim Wexler and Dr. House in the same scene!
Selina showed everyone how unpleasant TomJames is.
Kim Wexley working with Dr House
Selena Myer is the most gangsta of them all. Powerful woman.
Kim Wexler really moved up in the world.
Man I have no recollection of Rhea Seehorn on this show
This is amazing. What season was this XD
The last season, season 7. I think this was towards the end of it.
@@PallasAthene12 5 th episode I think

Was there a main reason Tom James felt a lot of extreme rage at Selina just asking
He was accused of sexual harassment and it killed his career and possibly his marriage
He was running for the presidential nomination ticket against Selina and she butchered his chances after he’d tried to sabotage her campaign numerous times. They’d also had an on-off affair over many years which he’d spilled in a book deal (and he’d always played on her attraction to him to gain some sort of political advantage).
