Great news, guys! All of the world’s wars and epidemic diseases and rampant global poverty and impending environmental disasters have all been resolved or averted, so there’s nothing left for the President of the United States to do but to invite the cast and crew of the upcoming NBC situational comedy set in the White House, The First Family 1600 Penn, for a private screening at the home of the Obamas. Yay! He earned it, but WE deserve it. From the HollywoodReporter:
The 1600 Penn cast and crew is heading to the real White House. President Obama will host a screening Wednesday for the White House comedy, which NBC sampled behind The Voice in December. It’s a reunion of sorts, since the half-hour comedy, which centers on a dysfunctional first family, was co-created by Obama’s former speech writer Jon Lovett.
All joking aside, I don’t think it matters if the President wants to invite casts and crews to the White House for private screening events. It is at least as valuable as “cleaning brush” on your farm. But this show? I get that it is set in the White House and is about a Presidential family and I get that there’s even a personal connection as the show was created by Obama’s former speech writer Jon Lovett, but it still feels like a bit much. Are you sure, Mr. President? Bear in mind, you can have a private screening of ANY SHOW THAT YOU WANT. What about, and I’m just spitballing here, what about PRETTY MUCH ANY OTHER SHOW? Send Mr. Lovett a nice card and a Harry & David basket of prunes. He’ll be fine. Screen Justified. #Justified

Matthew Goode won “Easiest On The Eyes” in the Oscar ceremony held in my heart.
My friend is in this one!! He’s the reporter.Oh wait, he was in the one with Katie Holmes. Yes. This one…
That guy sharing the soda looks like Susan from Seinfeld. Is the president’s daughter on a date with an executive from NBC?
It’s Eric from Boy Meets World, looking his 90s best.
This was one of my favorite movies growing up. I also love the song! My date with the president’s daughter! My date with the president’s daughter, oh yeah. My date with her.
All it will take is one mention of Bill Pullman’s brush with an alien invasion in his first term for me to love this show forever.

that black bar is doing a great job. I can only see like 85% of that guy’s huge ass now
If I were president, the cast and crew from Veronica Mars would be asked to stop by the White House, and perform a live staging of the two episodes that should have followed the series finale.
I will vote for you based entirely on this platform.
Wait, are you going to invite Piz?
Ha ha… No! Piz shouldn’t be there. I mean the actor who plays him can come and watch I guess, but we really don’t need him in the performance.
The cast of The Office has not responded to my invitation to visit my cubicle.
Every publicity photo I see for this 1600 Penn show is just exhausting.
it’s like if Veep was on CBS! but it’s actually NBC!
This is a perfect description of this show. I watched it on demand and it was beyond terrible.
