‘Veep’ is a smart, sharp political satire on HBO. It follows Selina Meyer, played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, a made-up Vice President who becomes President. The show mixes political games, personal blunders and office drama. Its witty lines and great cast make it one of best comedies out there. You will laugh, you will cringe and you might even question your life choices. Sounds fun, right?

Meet the characters from Veep

Selina Meyer

Oh man, Selina is just the ultimate powerhouse! Like, she’s so ambitious and fiercely unapologetic, right? She wants to be the best, no matter the cost, and it’s hilarious how she navigates through all the political chaos with her sarcastic quips and ruthless attitude. But also, there’s this surprising vulnerability to her, like when she gets all emotional about her relationships — it’s like, wait, Selina cares? It’s such a wild mix of fierce and funny!

Gary Walsh

Gary is the unsung hero of the show, honestly! He’s like Selina’s loyal right-hand man, but also just a total mess sometimes, you know? I mean, he’s deeply devoted to her, which is both sweet and kinda tragic because he just gets steamrolled by her ambitions. But he’s super quirky too, like how he has this weird obsession with the little details of Selina’s life. He’s got that “always in the background” vibe but ends up stealing the spotlight in his own awkward way!

Jonah Ryan

Oh boy, Jonah is a whole vibe! He’s this cringey, over-the-top character that somehow makes you feel both embarrassed and entertained at the same time. He’s like the classic underdog but also a total nightmare in politics — like, how does he even get there? His cluelessness is hysterical, and the way he fumbles through his attempts at power just makes you want to bang your head against the wall, but in a good way! Can’t help but root for him at times, though, because he’s so… relatable? Sort of? Haha!

Amy Brookheimer

Okay, let’s talk about Amy! She’s sharp, ambitious, and honestly, the most relatable character in the whole show. Like, she’s trying to juggle her career and her complicated relationship with Selina and it’s just a recipe for chaos! I love how she’s super competent yet constantly gets pulled into this whirlwind of political nonsense. And can we just appreciate her dry humor? It’s like she’s rolling her eyes at everything while still somehow managing to keep it all together. She’s the unsung queen of the office drama!

Dan Egan

Dan is such a wild card, seriously! He’s got that charming, cocky attitude that makes you love to hate him — like, he’s totally the guy who knows he’s good-looking and uses it to his advantage, but he’s also got this strange vulnerability underneath all that bravado. You never know what he’s gonna do next, and that unpredictability is just epic! Plus, his rivalry with Amy is so intense but also hilarious, like, they’re practically frenemies, and their banter is just gold! Can’t get enough of his chaotic energy!
