Silicon Valley - New Mike Judge 8-Part HBO Series (1 Viewer)

[sheerterror]

Jared’s lines are getting more subtle. When they were talking to the CEO of the company they wanted to take over and he busted out with “We all know what it’s like when you have to make a decision to only save half of your family.”

oh, and Ed Chambers. Moar Ed Chambers.

I think Jared is being vastly underrated in these parts.  His references are A+.

Hot chicks over 50 thread worthy

Gilfoyle's "electric pile of trash". 

 

[bcdjr1]

Ok, so last season they did the whole thing where Jian Yang took advantage of California’s squatters’ rights, living in Erlich’s house for free. But now he just throws the Pied Piper team out without a fight?

 

[zoonation]

The show’s precipitous drop in quality this year is Ballersesque.  Oof

 

[Quint]

Napalm Death - “You Suffer” 



unrelated: Keenan Feldspar walked into my tasting room late Friday night. Chatted for a few minutes, seems like a nice enough guy. He runs about 5’5” and 170lb if I had to guess. 

 

[Timmay]

I really enjoy Jared's character. It seems like im one of a handful on here however.

3rd episode was pretty good.  Some great Gilfoyle and less annoying Richard...

I like Jared too.  His humor is more subtle but he's quickly climbing the ranks.  He'll never pass Gilfoyle or Gavin, though.

Nice.  The Napalm Death notification was killing me... 

 

[JerseyToughGuys]

I have laughed out loud at a few of Jian Yang's bits this season. The court appearance was as was the whole corpse thing.

Oh, and "the witch" reference to Gilfoy

Jian Yang's voice alone cracks me up.  I still frigging love this show - the characters are so great.  I miss Erlich, but to be honest, I don't much care about the plot or whether the Pied Piper guys are "winning" or "losing" or where the story arcs go, or whether there's enough Monica.  I love the characters and their conversations and interactions.

Even the bit characters are good - LaFlamme, Russ Hanneman, etc...

 

[otb_lifer]

Direct Candor - this is still a very good show - but, with Erlich, it was great. 

lotta room to grow on thus far, Jian Yang is making up some serious ground on the Bachman void, and the latest intrigues are compelling. 

but Dinesh and Guilfoyle are too "one note" to be so prominent, imo - liked that we saw a bit of vulnerability outta Guil in this one (painstakingly cracking the lawsuit), hopefully he's fleshed out a bit more going forward.

did that show go to crap?     I watched season 1 and was mostly entertained.. but never went back

Napalm Death - “You Suffer” 

 

I laughed every time.

 

[lumpy19]

I laughed every time.

Me too, just awesome

 

[bushdocda]

Show kills me. I yell ‘Juan Yang’ often from my office and no one ever acknowledges it. 

 

[belljr]

I'm loving the season.   

They all work well together.  Dinesh cracks me up 

 

[Quint]

“Sweet dreams”

”Oh, if only”

 

[TLEF316]

Yeah jared is awesome. The way he was pushing for Richard to make friends with the other weird guy was cracking me up.

Still a hilarious show, even without erlich

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Me too, just awesome

Middleditch especially did a great job selling how startled he was every time it happened.  So much so that I almost wonder if they didn't even tell the actors when it was going to happen so the "jump scares" would be genuine.

 

[RUSF18]

I hated Erlich but I think that was more due to the fact I despise TJ Miller. I just dont find him funny and hes very obnoxious. Apparently, hes a real jackhole in real life too.

You don't say?

No, I freaking love Jared. That dude ####s.

Lol. If you read the story, it appears he was drunk enough that he got in a fight with a lady on his train and then after getting kicked off attempted to call a bomb threat in against that lady. He got the train wrong and they detained a different train. 

 

[Maik Jeaunz]

ROWR!!!

Still laughing

 

[JerseyToughGuys]

There are tons of throw away lines, almost to the point where I want to rewatch the episodes.

Like Jared mentioning he knows the other dude because their bathroom schedules at Hooli synced up.

I think this guy has a screw loose.  Maybe more than one.  Seems to be exacerbated by heavy drug/alcohol use.  Maybe it's appearing on "Crashing" that's doing it to these guys.  I mean, Artie Lange was slim, sober, and a fine upstanding citizen before he did his guest spot on that show.

.... and he apparently moved outta Hoboken

Artie did?  Not a bad idea if you ask me.  Draper, UT would be a good place for him.  Surround him with Mormons and scones with strawberry honey butter.

yeah, if you go by "Crashing" - Artie now has a jernt in the West Village (as per the show) used to see him in Hoboken every so often, especially up at the old Molfetta Pizza on 10th & Wash.

I know it well.  I lived for a (very) short time in Hoboken, near Newark/Washington.  I would have died if I stayed there.

I’m glad I knew nothing about TJ Miller until he left the show. That would have ruined a lot of it for me.

Isn't that the place that got shut down for price gouging everyone post Sandy?

is that the place where a slice is like 1/4 of a 14 inch pizza? Used to love that place in my school years.

no, you're thinking of Bennie Tudino's or 7 Star

I think that's Benny Tudino's.

 

[JerseyToughGuys]

Sounds awfully Italian and those guys know pizza so must be true.

 

[fantasycurse42]

You guys are thinking of Bernie Tudino's 

 

[CletiusMaximus]

His stand-up on HBO last year was a train-wreck. I was reaching for the remote 10 seconds into the 30 second promo ads.

[Evilgrin 72]

Is there still an Arthur's Steakhouse in Hoboken?  Oh my, the 24 oz Delmonico was a glorious, glorious thing.  I think it was $13.95 the first time I went there too, last I heard it was something like $20.95.  Still a bargain.

Not sure, haven’t been in many years, but there is one two towns over from where I currently live!

Where?  There used to be one near Rutgers, but I'm pretty sure that one closed down a long time ago.  Is it Morris Plains?

My phone is funnier than me.
