It could have been a 9 or even a 10, but it lacks of character development and tends to repeat itself.
Don't get me wrong. The characters (especially the duo Gilfoyle-Dinesh) are extraordinary and well depicted, but they don't grow along the episodes. They are somehow glued to a repetitive story format.
Richard is a magnet for problems and akward situations, Gilfoyle is the clever and cynical genius, Dinesh is Gilfoyle's perfect counterweight, Erlich has some rare lucid moments and becomes annoying by smoking from his pot, Jared is the good samaritan "having sex" ...
Despite those two negative points, this is an intelligent warm tv-show with a gorgeous and humorous venture of an IT company
In conclusion: If you have ever worked for an IT company you will definitely enyoj watching it.
I have been a member of IMDb for many many years now and am a big movie and TV enthusiast. That said, until now, not once have I felt the need to type up a review.
Silicon Valley if possibly the funniest show I have seen, ever. The writing is thoughtful, with perfect comedic timing. The only word to describe the characters is awesome. They all work so well together that the comedy flows effortlessly.
I am surprised to see that this show is coming from HBO. I would expect a show like this from Netflix but not HBO. But I must commend them because they hit this one out the park. I look forward to what I hope will be a long lasting series with many more seasons to come.
You can see from my profile that I have been a member here for many years and have not ever written a single review, so you can be assured that what I say is true. If you haven't seen Silicon Valley you are missing out. Go check it out!

When I first heard of the show, I wasn't very excited, thinking it would be just another lame show targeted towards any random dude, thus making it pointless.
However, as soon as I began watching the first episode, I became hooked. Being in a similar situation (minus the incubator) myself, the show was at the same time completely 'true' and hilarious. The characters are indeed the kinds you could find if you walked into some kind of startup event.
Even though some of the jokes are taken to an extreme, it's all pretty believable, since it pretty accurately depicts the world of technology, advertising and startups.. In its own cool way.
Needless to say, I watched the rest of the available episodes that night in quick succession and I was pleasantly surprised. It is genuinely a great show. Even though it's probably more popular around the startup scene, everyone should be able to appreciate the clever humor in the episodes.
There aren't many series or films that I rate 10/10. This is one of them.

Silicon Valley is every bit as funny as everyone says it is. I just binge watched the entire series and it absolutely flew by. Silicon Valley is a fresh and funny original comedy that you can watch over and over again without getting bored. It will be as funny watching it for the third or fourth time as it was the first. It was created by Mike Judge, if you're familiar with his work you know how funny most of his shows are and this might be his best work yet. The reason this show works so well is because of the cast (Kumail Nanjani, Thomas Middleditch, T. J. Miller, Martin Starr, Zach Woods, Josh Brener). They have such great chemistry and make each other even funnier. If you're looking for a show to make you laugh out loud then look no further, I promise you won't be disappointed.
I really don't like other HBO Comedies like Girls and Looking. I heard about this show and I'm a programmer myself so i thought i will give it a chance and I'm not disappointed.
The pilot was great and SMART, the lines were great and performances were all terrific.
All the characters were kind of cool and i'm looking forward to see them again. The characters are believable and may exist in the real world. I can't wait for next episodes. i recommend it to all of you. Watch it and i don't think you'll be disappointed.

Did you know
- TriviaZach Woods has been known to improvise some of his lines on the show, including, "My uncle used to say, 'you look like someone starved a virgin to death.'" Most notably, almost all of Jared's dark and troubled past is made up by Zach Woods on the spot, and he's cautioned fans that he's never tried to make it all fit together so they shouldn't try to build a coherent story out of it.

Donald 'Jared' Dunn: Hey! Sorry if I scared you, I know I have somewhat ghost-like features. My uncle used to say, "You look like someone starved a virgin to death."
