'You are going to wish the only thing they discover is more cancer.' Jesus. 4 years later that line still gives me chills before I laugh nervously to myself.

[@zurzakne-etra7069]

and so weird considering she had cancer!

Comedy?... 😳

It's still hilarious and just so harsh. I love it

[@JamieWWE]

Good God! 😅

[@jeffcorhn6613]

Julia is pure GENIUS in this scene !!! Her delivery of the dialogue the brilliant writers wrote is MONUMENTAL, & UNFORGETABLE !!!

[@aranksentimentalist]

And almost every scene on VEEP is exactly the same. Just one great scene after another.

[@andreboy1]

Julia has a strange talent in that her best performances in both Seinfeld and Veep are when it's humor mixed with anger.

[@jemmamariexxo]

So true

[@PallasAthene12]

This, along with her pep talk to Tom James’ deputy chief of staff, is one of her most savage scenes. Love it.

[@andrestern88]

That was was brutal. I felt that woman's humiliation myself! 'I'm the the senator's chief of staff' 'oh congratulations, then you probably won't fuck it up'

[@Sid-nf9en]

Oh my god, these two scenes are honestly the holy grail of comedy!

[@jimmy2k4o]

Well james’ COS was just a weapon to use against James. Selena manipulated her to hurt Tom James. And when Selena is back in the WH at the end, you see that woman working there. So Selena kinda made it up to her. At least with Selena she’s hired for her talents and not her body, which I’m guessing she’d prefer.

[@AB-nk5wv]

Her pep talk to Kim Wexler was definitely epic

[@0GallifreyGirl0]

Watching Veep clips at work almost cures the soul-sucking depression retail gives me

[@MattPoe742]

SAME! A rare bright light lol

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

You don't know what soul-sucking depression is, honey. It's an ILLNESS that is not ''cured'' by watching clips, it's treated (not cured in case of endogenic depression, mind you) by MEDICATION. I have an endogenic depression all my life, meaning I have no choice but you do, you can change your job, I can't change my brain chemistry/DNA. You had a mild depression coupled with boredom. But sure, go ahead and throw such word around.

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

@@MattPoe742 Rare bright light? Do you know what it is really to live in a complete darkness in utter agony for days, weeks, months on end? Do you know what real clinical depression is like?

[@hutch1197]

As chilling as this was, that Congresswoman promised to vote for Selina and then changed her mind at the last second to milk Selina for more political favors, and that's after Selina spent the whole week kissing up to her. She totally had this coming.

What makes all of Selina's insults perfect is not only is the acting top tier but Dreyfus surely relays that Selina is a horrible person

This is just MADtv vs. Saturday Night Live (JLD was a cast member on SNL in the mid-1980s while Stephnie Weir was on MADtv from the early 2000s to the mid 2000s).

Remember everyone, Seinfeld said there is no more "edgy" comedy.

If there is a list somewhere of the Top 10 funniest lines or insult exchanges in a tv show I think Veep has probably five or six in that list.
