HBO- Silicon Valley


TANTRIC-NINJA

Recommended Posts

I did not see a thread about this new show by Mike Judge.

I find the internet startup process facinating especially as I deal with peeps in IT all the time. My own network engineers to IT managers/directors who alot of are high tech shut ins.

It is done well and suprisingly less comedy than I expected.

So far after 4 weeks I say its a good show but not for everyone.

I like the show overall.  It's fairly accurate (as much as it can be with a half hour show), but there are some things that annoy me....like why did they keep the name Pied Piper!?  

 

The comedic aspect of it is sort of hidden, but hilarious if you catch it.  For some reason, I think Zach Woods' character (the dude from The Office) is funny as hell.

i love this show. it does have a lot of LOL moments for me, but the humor is still subtle. the acting is great.

it is everything big bang theory and workaholics think they are

I was expecting a tech industry Office Space which it still has an essence of.. But it s actually more focused on a stronger story. I think this may give it more longevity.

I like the show as a diversion from the other stuff I watch- totally different.

 

Seriously, I don't watch a single series on network TV, virtually everything I'm the slightest bit obsessive about is on either HBO or Showtime, save for Fargo and Justified, both on FX.

There are actually too many good shows now. I just saw Fargo's first episode.

I had to binge watch Game of Thrones to catch up on that this past few months so I am in to that now.

I love Justified but never kept up past season 1...funny how I got people hooked on and I got so behind I stopped watching. Now I just pretend to watch it to be cool...but I will be catching up.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
