That was a great read. Silicon Valley stumbled a bit but I think it was still a great show especially if you're into tech

Aaaah Silicon Valley, if you work in anything tech related it is the most cathartic show you can possibly watch. I've lived through the whole "The Box" mess like three times throughout my career at this point.

I agree that it gets messy at times, but I give them a pass on that, considering that the unfortunate passing of a certain actor probably threw all the early plans they had about the direction of the story out the window. For a show that had to scramble to deal with those kinds of unexpected issues, they did better than anyone could've.

Not only that, they nailed the ending. Most shows fail the ending.

Oh yeah! the ending was near perfect, so thematically appropriate and so bittersweet. The extended version is somehow even better
