    I enjoyed it, despite having several critiques of their depiction of the Soviet Union.

      To be fair, it was presented as no less corrupt and bad than the US government was in Veep.

      There was also the scene where literally thousands of people stormed the streets to mourn Stalin, which never happened in Veep. So they at least showed that the people were supportive, even if the politiboro wasn't.
