Veep Season Four April Episode Guide

HBO’s critically acclaimed comedy series Veep returns for season four on April 12, 2015 at 10:30pm ET/PT with Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ Selina Meyer set to take on the job of being the first female U.S. President. Tony Hale, Anna Chlumsky, Reid Scott, Matt Walsh, Timothy C. Simons, Sufe Bradshaw, Kevin Dunn, and Gary Cole are back in co-starring roles, with Sam Richardson now on board as a series regular. Recurring guest stars set to appear in season four include Patton Oswalt, Sarah Sutherland, and Hugh Laurie.

The Plot: Having become president after her predecessor stepped down, Selina Meyer is about to give her first major speech as commander-in-chief, though it remains to be seen whether her term will outlast that of America’s shortest-serving president, William Henry Harrison. With the stakes for Selina and her team higher than ever before, she must still run for election, and in the weeks to come they will grapple with how to make her seem “presidential.”
