WATCH: First looks at the new seasons of VEEP and Rick & Morty

Rory Cashin

Two of the funniest TV shows ever made are making their way back to the small screen in 2017.

First up, we’ve got VEEP. Season Five ended with (SPOILERS) Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfuss) being turfed out of the Oval Office having lost the election while focusing too much on her Vice President (Hugh Laurie).

If you need a quick catch up on what’s happened in the last few seasons, no worries, HBO are here to help, but maybe don’t listen to this in a public place…

And here’s your first look at Season Six, which looks like it’s got “the 43rd Most Effective President… just ahead of James Buchanan, who many feel caused the Civil War” travelling around the world to dole out her sage advice and expletive filled insults.

Meanwhile, fans of the absolutely bonkers and brilliant animated show Rick & Morty have been dying to find out what is going on with Season Three of the show ever since (AGAIN, SPOILERS) Rick got himself put in space jail and the rest of his family got back to Earth to see it become a popular tourist destination for aliens all over the galaxy. In reponce, Adult Swim Australia finally showed some footage of the new season and, well, we won’t spoil the surprise…
