Emmys 2017: ‘Veep’ Wins Best Comedy and Julia Louis-Dreyfus Breaks Her Own Record. A look back at VEEP 2 in 2013:

Julia Louis-Dreyfus breezed through DC last week and landed at the MPAA to kick off the next installment of her HBO comedy VEEP where she plays wise cracking and hopelessly down-in-the-polls Vice President Selena Meyer.

The new season begins as Selena and staff come face-to-face with the midterm election results and try to bolster their public image in a sea of political chaos.

A parade of media, movie lovers and politicians showed up to check in on the VEEP, including MPAA chairman Chris Dodd and Senator Al Franken (who was a cast mate of Julia Louis-Dreyfus on Saturday Night Live in the 1980’s), Chief of Protocol Capricia Marshall, Honorary Oscar winner George Stevens, Jr. with wife Liz, CNN’S Jessica Yellin and Washington Post’s Jonathan Capehart.
