Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Selina Meyer — The entry states that Meyer becomes vice president following an unsuccessful run for president, but in the show she becomes vice president after being selected as running mate for President Stuart Hughes.

Selina Meyer — The entry claims she announced her candidacy for the 2012 presidential election, but in the show she runs for president in the 2016 election cycle.

Amy Brookheimer — Amy runs for Lieutenant Governor of Nevada in Season 5, not Season 6.

The Media Cycle — The entry states 'The characters in the White House and the West Wing treat them...' but Veep is set in the Office of the Vice President, not the White House or West Wing.

Political Theater — The Screen Actors Guild Awards nomination years listed correspond to seasons 3, 4, 5, and 6, not seasons 4, 5, 6, and 7; the win was for season 5, not season 6.

Season 1 — The entry mentions a 'signature cold open—where Selina delivers a monologue directly to camera'—this is inaccurate. Veep does not have a signature cold open with Selina delivering a monologue directly to camera.

Season 2 — The entry states that Matt Walsh co-stars as President Hughes, but in Veep, President Hughes is played by Kevin Dunn, not Matt Walsh.

Season 2 — The entry says Julia Louis-Dreyfus won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her performance in Season 2, continuing a streak of consecutive wins for the role, but she first won for Season 1, so the streak began with Season 1, not Season

Season 6 — The 'DID YOU KNOW' section says Armando Iannucci 'previously wrote and directed the British political satire In the Loo.' The correct title is 'In the Loop.'

Season 5 — Armando Iannucci left after Season 4, but the writing team maintained the series' sharp satirical edge through Season 5 and beyond.
