Silicon Valley

I guess I would have to pick this as the best TV comedy of 2015. It's one of the few comedies I would call genuinely well-plotted, with stakes and twists and tension and reveals and cliffhangers - but all without ever losing sight of being just fucking hilarious, filled with one-liners and punchlines that had me roaring. Kudos to Mike Judge. That guy fucks, am I right? If this show gets better from S2 in S3 it may officially become the best TV comedy since Community's peak.

Really, really funny. Each of the main characters is funny in his own way. I was a big fan of the addition of Russ. The one knock against the show is that every single episode presents some do or die moment for the company, which just feels a little ridiculous.

The shows concept is really interesting to me and there are some good parts. I liked the more series bits about how startups actually function but I would definitely consider this worth watching if it wasn't for TJ Miller's character. His entire character is unfunny, obnoxious, sexist, racist, and disgusting. I despise his character and gave up after the 3rd season as every episode was made worse by his addition.

Turns out that The Social Network works just as well as a (more overt) comedy. Deserves credit, I suppose, for making people who are literally destroying the world kind of endearing.

It's one of the best comedies on TV right now, pushing the rigid realism and subtle observational comedy of Office Space even further with characters who are believably pathetic and jokes that are incredibly strong considering the context in which they have to fit. Zach Woods is a particular stand-out -- I noticed him first in Kroll Show and wondered why I hadn't seen him anywhere else, only to then watch this show and see the promise of his talent immediately fulfilled.

Completely awesome first few seasons, deflates towards the end, especially after T.J. Miller left. Still a very good show overall.

It's okay but also incredibly painful to watch at times. It's kind of like Curb Your Enthusiasm except without it being funny at all. Not worth watching past season 4, but arguably not really worth watching at all.

realistic :D

S1: 78, S2: 80, S3: 80, S4: 82, S5: 75, S6: 68

I have rewatched it like 7-8 times by now. It's great.

Decent critique of big tech and often funny. It gets a bit redundant in each season.

good series

Wasn't sure I'd like this and the stuttering first season almost lost me initially but picks up in the later episodes. However from Season 2 through Season 5 the writing, tech humour and satire, and character development and performances really find their groove making SV one of the recent TV greats. The final season seems a little rushed in comparison and while the final episode itself ends arguably inevitably and perfectly for the series, I would have preferred they took a different direction.

Good 1st season when it's plucky underdogs trying to find a place in Silicon Valley. Deteriorates later when everyone is an asshole who I want to fail. Also the constant flipping from incredible success to urgent crisis, undoing every resolution they just wrapped up, is a bit annoying. The best storylines were Erlich always failing, Jian-Yang always getting besting him and Big Head stumbling into unwarranted success but by season 5 they were all gone and no one was left to root for.

Excellent show. I recently binged the whole series and I was laughing out loud pretty consistently throughout the show. I think it did dip a bit when TJ Miller left the show, but was still overall pretty solid. It's pretty impressive how they were able to simultaneously mock the tech industry, while also getting so much of it accurate at the same time.

Gets pretty tired in the later seasons of them essentially running over the same ground but it's got its moments. First few seasons are fantastic.

A bit repetitive and frustrating when it tries to be dramatic, but consistently funny, making the most of its somewhat small core cast. Jared and Gilfoyle carry the show with their unique humor.

Really good. Way better than other "nerd" series. Until last season, which was sub-par. Specially the end.

Has a wobble in season 4, but firmly back to greatness in 5 and 6.

Smart, nerdy, well acted and well written it relies heavily on the cast to make long winded jokes that only patient people will appreciate. It develops the story and doesn't search to build the story around the punchline which a lot of comedies settle for. This once again creates in the centre of a core set of characters who trials and tribulations actually mean something. All of that compacted into 8 to 10 episode seasons makes for damn good comedy and television.

One of the funniest TV shows ever made if you're into cringe humor and tech. The first seasons were better, but start to end it's consistently good. I'm not even sad it's over, seems like it lasted the right amount of time. Kiss... my piss... kiss... my piss!

S01: 82

Like "Entourage" but in silicon valley. A bunch of self-important asshats develop an app or something and act like manchildren.

Silicon Valley is punishingly cringeworthy but benefits from being consistently funny. Each season peaks near the end, leaving you on a cliffhanger want just a bit more. While the ensemble cast makes the show work, I can't really say I miss Miller that much, plus Yang makes up for the douchebaggery. Luckily the show is ending after the (yet-to-air) 6th season, so hopefully it won't overstay its welcome.

First four seasons were fantastic, last two pretty terrible, Maybe unrelated to T.J. Millers exit, maybe not.

The first two seasons were funny. I know I watched the third but I don't remember anything about it, except how it made me feel: bored and sad. I haven't watched the rest of it but I can't imagine it's returned to its initial greatness so I'm not going to bother. This is all to say: watch the first two seasons, then move on.

Newp, sorry. Funny how Criticker assigns an 89 PSI for this, but it's not taking into account how utterly bored I am of shows like these. Did the world need another story about self-involved man baby asshats? I think not. I only watched the first season but it was more than enough for me.

W4E2P2S2M1V1A1R2. About halfway through, and loving it. Have always hated Middleditch in those annoying Verizon commercials and the show does nothing to save him from my loathing, but the rest of the cast is superb. Feels like a semi-educational version of The Office, and that's not overstating its brilliance.

Season 5: I'm a big fan of this show. Seaon 5 did a good job of moving the story on, Pied Piper had to either grow or die. Very up-to-date episodes relating to cryptocurrency, data privacy... but it's not dry at all. Every episode is full of great jokes. Jared's horrific back-story seems to know no depths. Martin Starr as Gilfoyle came to the fore this season, and that's a good move.

Great comedy but it seems unnecessary to keep going many seasons.

A series full of some of the most cringe-worthy situtations and many amazing one-liners delivered with perfect comedic timing by the entire cast. You'll enjoy it even more if you're into technology like me. The third season wasn't as funny as the first two, but was still worth watching.

One of the best comedies in recent years and Judge's most complete work to date. It's funny and has a believable main story, while still maintaining a pretty ridiculous brand of humor.

?u anda tv'deki en iyi komedi i?i.

fluctuates very wildly between one of the funniest things in the world and something that's moderately amusing. Zach Woods should be a household name

Amusing, but lacks in Mike Judge-less episodes.

Really amusing satire that throws barbs at the tech industry, the male dominated programming world, and the money obsessed venture capitalists that profit off of it. TJ Miller's character as a wannabe Steve Jobs that's held back by his laziness and addiction to pot is probably the highlight. Richard Hendricks is also great as an anti-social computer nerd that's way in over his head.

It's fantastic for the first couple of seasons but some time after that you will definitely think it's spinning its wheels, recycling the wheel of: disaster - wacky hijinks - Richard has a moment of divine inspiration - success. It depends on how much you like the cast as to whether this is a problem.

Entourage: Movies, Ballers: NFL: SV: Computer stuff. There are all very similar and all very watchable. (5 seasons)

A bunch of dildos being unrealistically Asperger's-y while doing VC-backed startup things. About 5% as funny as The Office, at best.

Season 1: 80 Season 2: 75 Season 3: 85

I found it too light and distasteful on the palate to continue past the fifth episode. The one in which they make painting a logo on a garage door a crux of the story. And it's a guy fucking the Statue of Liberty. How friggin' HILARIOUS was that? Well it wasn't, actually. Mighty facepalm-worthy, more like.

Season 1: 60 Season 2: 75

My score on it's own values/filmmaking used to be 65 due to repetetive cycle of events and rather formulaic happenstances. But on irl observational stances, it proved in time how much I keep referencing it over the years and how on point it has been about the tech cult. It's more important than a mere fun comedy show.

Really funny, good writing, and well casted. It's miles ahead of throwaway sitcoms like "Big Bang Theory." It's definitely got that Mike Judge feel and if you liked "Office Space" you'll love this.

Best current comedy series?

It's the funniest show on TV right now (2015). All the characters are well thought out and hilarious. It sucks that Christopher Evan Welch died because Peter Gregory was going to go down as one of the funniest mother fuckers ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUxMY77i0q4
