Seasons
Season 1
Senator Selina Meyer has just become the Vice President of the United States...and discovered that the job is nothing like she expected--but everything she was warned about. Season one follows the whirlwind day-to-day existence of Vice President Meyer as she puts out political fires, juggles public and private demands and defends the interests of the chief executive--with whom she shares a uniquely dysfunctional relationship.
Season 2
In season two, Selina tries to parlay slightly above average popularity polls into increased influence with the president and his new senior strategist Kent Davison. But just as in the first season, even the most banal decision made by Selina and her staff can have the most unexpected and far-reaching consequences.
Season 3
After the revelation at the end of Season 2 that the president will not run for re-election, Season 3 begins with Selina, eyeing a promotion, courting Iowa Caucus voters at a signing of her new book. Soon, however, she learns that the Secretary of Defense, war veteran Danny Chung, is resigning - setting the stage for a possible clash with her nemesis in the presidential primaries.
