( HBO / April 21, 2012 )

Julia Louis-Dreyfus stars as Selina Meyer in HBO's new comedy "Veep," about the first female VP of the United States. The show truly focuses on how silly the office of the VP can be at times - photo ops, spats with the First Lady, meet 'n greets - and neither the party affiliation nor the President's identity are planned to be revealed, since the VP office is meant to be the focus.

Let's take a look at some of the other VPs that have graced our TV screens. Most of them are rather bad people, using nefarious means to succeed to the presidency (we're looking at you, "24").
