Conversations with Anna Chlumsky of VEEP

Q&A with Anna Chlumsky. Moderated by: Mara Webster, SAG AFTRA Foundation Program Manager.
The new season of VEEP finds Selina Meyer trying to gain traction in early primary states, wooing uber-wealthy donors while navigating threats from primary challengers, including aide-turned-congressman Jonah Ryan. Selina’s band of misfits is also back, except for Mike, who’s been banished from her orbit and is now covering the presidential campaign, having been replaced by his ongoing nemesis in the press, reporter Leon West.

Meanwhile, Amy is figuring out how she feels about her pregnancy vis-a-vis Dan, who seems unwilling to give up his playboy ways for fatherhood. Rounding out the team are ever-faithful bagman Gary, cantankerous Ben, numbers-obsessed Kent and staffer Richard.

love Veep her character Amy is so good, all the characters are horrible to each other, like Thick of It treats politicians with the contempt they they so often deserve.
