Veep: HBO Teases Upcoming Fifth Season

by Jessica Pena, April 8, 2016

Veep TV show on Showtime: season 4

Will Selina be the next president or not? HBO has teased some details from the upcoming fifth season of Veep.

The political comedy stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Tony Hale, Matt Walsh, Anna Chlumsky, and Reid Scott.

From HBO:

President Selina Meyer is in the midst of a virtually unprecedented Electoral College tie, with her future as commander in chief coming down to just a few hundred votes. While Amy and Dan work on a long shot to victory, Selina finds herself spinning her wheels in D.C., as her staff strives to make her seem presidential (even though she actually is president), at the same time fending off the ambitions of Tom James, her charismatic running mate, who in a twist of obscure constitutional procedure could end up becoming president.”

Season five of Veep premieres on April 24th at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT. 

Read the full details below:

President Selina Meyer is in the midst of a virtually unprecedented Electoral College tie, with her future as commander in chief coming down to just a few hundred votes. While Amy and Dan work on a long shot to victory, Selina finds herself spinning her wheels in D.C., as her staff strives to make her seem presidential (even though she actually is president), at the same time fending off the ambitions of Tom James, her charismatic running mate, who in a twist of obscure constitutional procedure could end up becoming president.

The Emmy(R)-winning comedy series VEEP kicks off its ten-episode fifth season SUNDAY, APRIL 24 (10:30-11:00 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO.
