Literally NEVER.

Caught it for the first time last week. Too smug and full of itself. The guy with the beard and hair was annoying as fuck by always talking loud. He reminded me of Chandler from Friends.
Fuck it.

i thought this was one of those shows that started out pointing out how utterly stupid some shit that comes out of SV is

then started taking itself seriously and of course there's all kind of faggot references in the intro, because smart people notice and understand references

now it's just another 'misundersood nerds are misunderstood' show, just as un-self-aware as their subject

Episode 1.
Its great, the later seasons aren't as funny as the first, but its still a great show.
>>
'i'm a quirky college-age individual who has wacky adventures all the time, enjoys comic books, and i_fucking_love_science.facebook' --> BBT

'the guys who want to sell you wifi-connected toilets are really nice, ordinary, well-rounded people who just want to make the world a better place using said toilets. you're welcome' --> SV

season 1 finale. with that jerking off joke.
but honestly, they stretched it way too far, and in the middle of that, it started becoming stale.

still, 2 minutes of good fun were had

That show is hilarious. Starting from S01E01.

The only reason anons on /g/ wouldn't find it funny is because they see themselves. They're the pajeet coder, the illegal Canadian, the sperging Richard, the stoner "leader" of the group.

In the last episode, when the designer wants him and Richard to find a common design vocabulary and shows him pictures of trees, and volcanoes with fucking shitty music over it. That has /g/ written all over it. Fucking /g/ and desktop design and desktop threads, wanking over the same minimalism.

If you don't find Silicon Valley funny, chances are they're making fun of you.

In all honesty its actually quite funny to techies

even non techies like the plot

It's supposed to represent how its actually like in that shit hole so expect to get angry.

I think it's pretty good. The scenes are so ridiculous and over-the-top sometimes, but all the actors have admitted that actual Silicon Valley employees have told them that it is as ridiculous as they portray it, regularly.

I was halfway into the first season before I thought it got decent. Pretty much from there on has been OK. It's like Workaholics but not a steaming pile of shit.

>Elon Musk, after viewing the first episode of the show, said: "None of those characters were software engineers. Software engineers are more helpful, thoughtful, and smarter. They're weird, but not in the same way. I was just having a meeting with my information security team, and they're great but they're pretty weird—one used to be a dude, one's super small, one's hyper-smart—that's actually what it is. [...] I really feel like Mike Judge has never been to Burning Man, which is Silicon Valley [...] If you haven't been, you just don't get it. You could take the craziest L.A. party and multiply it by a thousand, and it doesn't even get close to what's in Silicon Valley. The show didn't have any of that."
>>
it's funny to watch if you're in the bay area and notice all the idiots and retards. if you don't live here or your head is so far up your ass that you're one of these characters, it's probably not that funny.

In the 90s. Might as well be 100 years ago.
>>
>>54583250
I could never get into it either, people around me all stopped watching it too.
>>
it's already funny because it reflects the reality of SV despite some TV show absurdity (which may even be accurate too).
>>
Its not supposed to be a comedy. Its a documentary.

A very accurate one.
>>
>>54589404
Why is this faggot relevant? I hate the media forcing this guy as a new meme. Idols like those people are forced since the Steve "le great inventor" Jobs era.

I liked that Henry from Henry's Kitchen was in the episode before last as the pony-tailed server guy.

I'm glad he caught a break, because his apartment sucks.

It's written and directed by Mike Judge

I'm going to place my bets on you being a pleb rather than him making something unfunny

It doesn't, if you're a /g/entleman, because it reminds you how dead inside technology makes you

season 3 is like
>we're fucked
>oh, we're fine
>shit, what happened, that's it
>what a unexpected positive outcome


Are they going to repeat this until the show becomes shit?

This is actually fucking show. I'm so glad I quit being an American.

Honestly the scene were Erlich slapped that child had me rolling, that and the masturbation algo, but other than those two scenes I don't think there's been any laugh out loud moments for me.

Also I miss that billionaire douchebag.
Show is pretty meh.

I just watched 2 episodes and so far it's really more cringey and painful than funny.

The window style looks like Mac, editor looks like vim on a terminal and the other one looks like sublime without the left bar, maybe gedit made to look like that.

They really need a tiling wm, who the fuck leaves their windows between screens?

Also the background looks like one of gnome's default wallpapers.

i'm ding part in the last episode was funny.

also the monitors part the episode before that.

Mike Judge likes screwing with people who pay attention to UI details. In 'Office Space' what OS did Peter use? It was a made up hybrid of Windows and MacOS. People on both platforms were shit talking about the other OS bleeding into their holy territory.
