“Veep,” HBO’s merciless satire of Washington politics, went out with a gleeful whimper in 2019, a casualty of the Trump presidency.
“We felt we couldn’t keep up with that,” Frank Rich, an executive producer of the series, said on Monday.
The internet was suddenly rife with “Veep” clips, GIFs and fancams.
“Was the HBO show ‘Veep’ just a documentary filmed in the past about the future?” one post read.
“Now we know what HBO’s ‘Veep’ writers were doing during the strike,” read another.
