TV: Sunday-Night Scorecard
Yes, “Game of Thrones” (pictured) came back but I couldn’t subject myself to the sexist nudity and gore. Instead I watched other HBO offerings, like: Silicon Valley: Richard was edged out of the CEO position, but fought back nerdfully. Grade: B+. Veep: I stopped watching this show but it’s an election year so I thought I’d give it another try. President Mayer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) is in a recount battle, and her underlings are their usual incompetent selves. Grade: B-. The Good Wife: Most of the episode took place at a wedding party for Peter’s mother, which was a convenient place for everyone to speak with everyone else. The show is fizzling toward its finale. Grade: C+.
