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.

    • This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.
    • I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops. 
    • I saw numerous reports leading up to the draft that he'd been injury red flagged by numerous teams due to cartilage damage and wear issues that they think could shorten his career.
