Comparing because they’re both rapid fire comedies, from roughly the same era, that share a similar “no hugging, no learning” ethos. The comedic dialogue in both show was top tier……but I always liked 30 Rock more. I’m trying to put finger on it…….but the line delivery in Veep always felt slightly clunky. Like every scene is set up for every character to get at least one good “burn” in. Don’t get me wrong Veep is hilarious and Jonah is one of the funniest characters of all time, but does anyone else feel this way?
