    Silicon Valley

    Anybody else enjoying this new HBO show? I guess I shouldn't be surprised since Mike Judge is involved, but it's fucking funny!

          Silicon Valley has a great cast of characters and the main storyline is funny yet believable.

                  Matt Ross, the guy who played Albie Grant on Big Love, is the perfect computer world, CEO asshole type.

                          Great series... does somewhat capture the vibe of Silicon Valley back in that era. I believe they set it in the late 80's but it seems more like I experienced the valley in the late 70's early 80's.

                          By the late 80's Silicon Valley was in a down trend and Silicon Prairie (Austin, Tx) was the hot spot starting up the .com bubble...

                              Do you mean based it on the 80's? I'm fairly certain it's present day.

                                  From what I read it's based on Mike Judge's experiences when he moved there in 1987... I don't think they've aimed to make any of it "period" centric. But it seems to be slanted that way. It's a very different place today than what it was in the 70's/80's in both business and culture.

                                      Sounds more like Yawn Valley...

                                                  If ELVIS dislikes it, it must be a good show.

                                                  Keep watching Alex Jones, E!

                                                      It's good. I like it even more after listening to Judge on Stern last week.

                                                          Could you be more specific, late 1870s?
