    I personally think Jonah and Richard are one of the best duos on TV. Then you add in Dan to the group and the 3 become this amazing trio of hate, anger and unbridled optimism

    Timothy Simons does an amazing job playing an unlikable character in the show, but for this interview, he was incredibly likable with a sharp sense of humor and impeccable timing. I've only checked out the first 2 episodes of Veep, but I'm thinking I'll have to get back to it now.

    Holy shit. I remember the show Jonah is talking about too. It was a Ghostface show and the opening act was TruLife. He said something about the opening act [I wanna say it was Vakill] and tried to get the crowd to sing some song with NY in the title. His hypeman threw some plastic bottles and somebody from the crowd threw a glass bottle at Trulife's face. Eventually shit died down and the cops let Ghostface perform after. Good times.

    For some reason, rather than watch Veep and GoT episode by episode as they drop, I've been storing them up for binge-watching. Only those two shows, except for the first ep of GoT S7. I'm in the guts of Veep S6 and it is phenomenal. Julia Louis-Dreyfus is just perfect. They all are really, not one misstep. From soup to nuts, everyone involved, be they writers, actors, wardrobe, set design, lighting...all great.

I think just knowing it’s fake is part of what makes it fun too. Idk lol.

    Imo, Jonah became more likable this season compared to previous seasons.
    Such as when he considered Richard to be his friend so he invited him to a concert, and then after he realizes it's a Neo Nazi concert he became worried about Richard and wanted to leave.
    And how he thinks the word pork offends Shawnee so he does not want that to be said around her.
    He cares more about some people now.

      The later episodes, not so much, unless you count him making up with his stepfather before his stepdad died from adult chicken pox (which is lethal in adulthood, but just a pain in the ass if you're a kid).

    • @MrDarthvis
      @MrDarthvis 2 роки тому +1

      Or after him and his dad got chicken pox, his dad advised him to lighten up on the intensity and crude speech, and Jonah was like “🥺 okay dad.” Boy just needed a father figure growing up.

      Jacob Mac Donald I think maybe Colbert was drunk. He kept stumbling over words in his monologue and licked his lips a lot. He was really thrown off by Tracy Morgan too. Usually he's quicker than that. To be fair he could just be really distracted by something personal.
