HBO released a new trailer for its political comedy "Veep," starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Selina Meyer, a former Senator who becomes the Vice President of the United States.

In short, it looks very hilarious. We're extremely excited to see Louis-Dreyfus back in action, especially considering the fact that the show's on HBO means the humor can be a little edgier than a network show.

For example, the trailer alone features several creative uses of the f-bomb. Our favorite, re: a recently edited speech: VP Meyer asks, "This has been pencil completely?" "Yes, front and back. Very little romance," her aide responds.

"It is a true delight to work with HBO and Armando Iannucci," Louis-Dreyfus says in a statement. "I take the role of vice president very seriously, and although everyone says this is a comedy, I don't think there is anything funny at all about me being a heartbeat away from the presidency."

"Veep" premieres Sunday, April 22 on HBO.

越来越接近4月,HBO忙碌的市场部曝光了电视网今年最令人期待的新喜剧《副总统》(Veep)的首款预告海报。“俏妈”朱莉娅·路易斯-德利法斯(Julia Louis-Dreyfus)将在剧中饰演一位政界女性。

《副总统》讲述了Selina Meyer从一名参议员成为副总统后,开始面对成堆的突发状况,很快,她便认识到,成为一名副总统可没有她预期得那样风光美好,各种各样的烂摊子都在等着她去解决。

而最新发布的这款预告海报,则让人体会到了浓浓的竞选和政治范儿。美国国旗的红蓝双色,还有醒目的黑色以及VEEP字幕上的五角星,十分简单明了。和“红色”-共和党Dan、Dick(指代Dane Queyle和Dick Cheney),以及“蓝色”-民主党Al和Joe(指代Al Gore和Joe Biden)一样,对于“黑色”的Selina来说,也许她还没有选择好她的阵营……不过,无论准备好了没有,她就是副总统。而最下方的播出时间提醒,竟然用了“inaugural-就职演说”这个词,着实妙哉。

《副总统》将于4月22日在HBO首播。该剧将和USA的《政治动物》、NBC的《宾夕法尼亚大道1600号》(1600 Penn)以及HBO的电视电影《规则改变》(Game Change)一起,为美国今年的大选增色。
