Probably just the editing, but the trailers make it look obnoxiously serious.

I just listened to the Jobs book and I'm enjoying Silicon Valley, so the timing is perfect. Read a favorable review from Greenwald as well. I'll give it a shot.

Anyone watch Halt and Catch Fire?

Not really sure what to think after watching the first episode...looks to have potential, but also looks like it could just be filler tv or something that i lose interest in pretty quickly.

This season of 24 has been surprisingly good....

EXCELLENT wrap on Season 1 of Silicon Valley. There was a little dull space toward the middle-end of the season, which may have been caused in part by the death of an actor, but I still think it's a great show, and that was a great sendoff. Best episode of the season.

I know South Park did something along these lines years ago, but we've all seen the epiphany scene a million times in procedural tv
and elsewhere. That was the funniest epiphany scene I've ever seen and I hardly ever find dick humor funny (too done and easy).

Kiefer Sutherland's daughter plays Julia Louis Dreyfus's daughter Catherine on "Veep".

Also, "Veep" is hilarious.

Right on the heels of Jared accosting people about different pivoting options. "Which one? Which one?.. Which one?"

Apparently the writer of Fargo thinks tonight's ep will "break twitter."
