I visited Palo Alto for the first time a few weeks ago - the show needs more Asian girls if it wants to be realistic

Also remember that Hooli just laid off the entire Nucleus staff *without* no-competes - they're either going to end up with Pied Piper, or Bighead feels bad for them all and starts his own company full of Nucleus rejects

Avasculous posted:I'm exploring consulting as a career option now, and the 'conjoined triangles of success' is exactly my problem with so much of business education: take 5-6 painfully general buzzwords, put them on an arbitrary graphical design, give them an air of reverence and some credentials behind the author, and you can sell it in a $40 paperback book to aspiring tycoons everywhere. I have good news! http://www.amazon.com/How-Win-Friends-Influence-People/dp/0671027034 All business literature is "making yourself feel good about separating people from their money". It involves lying to yourself. A lot.

I'm guessing Richard gets the money from Russ for Internet II and then holds it above PiperChat's heads to get the guys to rejoin him If Richard's Internet II model works, he can just launch it through PiperChat updates to people's phones since the app is so popular

Why Haley Joel Osment Could Be Silicon Valley’s New Superstar Ughhhhhhhhhhh Anyone else think Osment could be the "familiar face" to replace TJ Miller like Ashton Kutcher replacing Charlie Sheen?

BIG HEADLINE posted:With it ultimately resulting in her having already having been pregnant by her fiancee (which had her hormones out of whack and why she ended up loving *Richard* of all people), which becomes a problem anyway because Richard will almost certainly find a way to reveal it to him in a 'hilarious' and predictably 'wacky' way, setting them back to square one with no loving hope of funding except maybe Russ. What if they mirror Steve Jobs' illegitimate kid and Richard denies paternity despite his mounting success and wealth

Colonel Whitey posted:This season has had some decent jokes but has zero focus narratively. It's my least favorite season by far and I don't think anything will be able to change my mind in the next three episodes unless Zach Woods gets to be Ed Chambers the entire time. Jared learning that he can imitate anyone's voice over the phone might send him out of control Which could lead him to imitating Richard's voice which would be amazing

GobiasIndustries posted:Is Chevy Chase the biggest rear end in a top hat to work with? Honestly, I haven't heard anything but bad things about him on set and I don't know of other celebs with such a bad reputation. Chevy complained on-set that the writers were making his character too racist, and he shouted something like "do you have anything besides n*gger jokes for me?" So Chuck Lorre, sweetheart that he is, took the opportunity to get "CHEVY CHASE GOES ON RACIST TIRADE" published everywhere he could

I'm thinking the end of the show will be Richard and Bighead parallel to Gavin and Peter Gregory, with both men falling upward but Bighead doing it in an ethical manner Richard's going to lose his goddamn mind But yeah, the show is starting to get stale for me a bit too - Mike Judge probably is going for "if this ever gets syndicated, people watching a random episode should get resolution at the end of that same episode" which makes sense, but is lame

We still haven't had the inevitable "Richard and Monica start dating" subplot, but it seems that even she doesn't like him anymore Monica and Jared should hook up - they're essentially Richard's mom and dad anyway

Just since TJ is throwing so much shade his way, I looked up what exactly Alec Berg has written. He wrote 5 episodes of Silicon Valley: quote:- Success Failure (2017) ... (written by) The Condor episode and the Tip-To-Tip Efficiency episode are two of my favs, and now that I come to think of it both gags had nothing to do with Erlich, so maybe that's why TJ doesn't like him EDIT: "Bad Money" was the episode that introduced Russ Hanneman - Alec Berg is cool as gently caress EugeneJ fucked around with this message at 02:55 on Jun 27, 2017 |

i am the bird posted:To defend TJ for no reason, his criticism seems to be about Berg's show running instincts. TJ argues that Berg is responsible for what most of this thread hates: the network sitcom cycle of hitting the reset button at the end of every episode. Entourage was the exact same way - most of the TVIV crowd "just wanted to see the 4 guys hang out because that's funny" while the rest were like "it's stuck in a cycle of struggling to get a movie made and then always getting the movie made anyway so this sucks and nothing matters"

Final scene of the show should be Pied Piper led by Big Head launching its IPO to a massive celebration, and then a quick cut to Richard and Erlich doing opeum hits in Tibet while watching the celebration on TV

get that OUT of my face posted:The Hollywood Insider interview noted that Alec Berg was the showrunner for the first two seasons of Silicon Valley. I'm not sure who's responsible for this season's decline and diminishing returns and laughs, but it probably isn't him. This article says he's currently "co-showrunner", so I'm trying to figure out who the second showrunner is: http://www.sfgate.com/entertainment/the-wrap/article/TJ-Miller-Slams-Silicon-Valley-Showrunner-11247611.php EDIT: here we go https://deadline.com/2017/04/silicon-valley-clay-tarver-elevated-co-showrunner-on-hbo-comedy-series-1202062556/ quote:As HBO’s Silicon Valley is gearing up for its Season 4 premiere on April 23, the praised comedy series also is making plans for a potential fifth season, which has not been ordered but is fully expected. If Silicon Valley is renewed for Season 5, Clay Tarver will be promoted to executive producer and co-showrunner alongside original executive producers/showrunners Mike Judge and Alec Berg. Clay Tarver wrote the first episode after Peter Gregory's death that introduced Laurie and 3 other episodes: quote:- Terms of Service (2017) ... (written by)

I liked how Judge handled the "but there's no female lead character!" criticism from Season 1 by introducing a female lead character in Season 2, getting a bunch of positive "Silicon Valley is no longer problematic" stories from a news cycle, and then 2 weeks later writing off the character completely
