Silicon Valley (HBO, Mike Judge) (April 6)

[Zetanio]

The jacket is amazing.

Decent episode.

The whole ex-CEO meeting at the private jet hanger thing was funny.

i'm glad they shit on the old misunderstanding trope with richard and monica's phone call, felt good man

Haven't seen any word if HBO will actually sell the jacket.

I know with 2 episodes left it can't possibly end on a positive note; I'm bracing for impact, things have been going too well for everyone. lol

I think the downfall for Pied Piper is that the tech people (the minority) will harbour it as amazing, but the general populace (people like Monica) will be frustrated with it so it'll tank hard.

[Inshiya]

^That's what I was thinking.

We're obviously going to see a future war with RobotQueen, though honestly I love her character. They do need to figure out how to get some power back from her though.

Would love for this show to change formats and move beyond the "constantly impending dick punch," but we all know that's not going to happen.

Well, there's the Belson + Barker duo, too, who will most likely team up to try and ruin everything for them as well.

[Cutriss]

Kinda seems too easy for Barker to get picked up by Hooli. Makes me wonder if they might partner up to try and do some damage, but then the whole thing will explode in their faces.

[Cutriss]

That elephant CGI was...godawful.

"I guess it's about $697,240. But don't quote me on that."

That guy fucks...

Damnit, I was right.

I think i've said this a few times watching this show..... I'm just hoping that the current shit was going to allow the guys get some of the control back before they turn it around. I'm sure there will be some more nut checks before hand tho...

"We've created a product so far ahead of its time that people just don't understand it"

Surprisingly common in the tech industry. Good example would be Microsoft with tablet computers years before Apple "revolutionized" the market.

I harbor no I'll feelings towards apple at all.

Did this episode seem like it was filmed differently than the rest of the series? I felt like it was more "move-like" in a way, especially the ending

And yea, getting kicked in the balls... again

Did you accidentally turn on 60+ FPS on your TV or switch to a new TV?

[Krandor]

This was the first episode this season directed by Alec Berg, might be part of it.

[Greedouw]

^^ Maybe?

Just seemed like a different style, I don't know

I recently powered through this entire show from start to finish, and this guy fucks is officially one of the best catch phrases I've ever heard.

My friend and I use it on a daily basis now. It's great, it really is.

I really enjoyed Gavin's animal metaphors. The possum one was probably my favorite simply because the board members shot him down before he could even do it.
