“Follows the struggle of Richard Hendricks, a silicon valley engineer trying to build his own company called Pied Piper.”
Season 5 of HBO's Silicon Valley finally has a trailer and a release date! I absolutely love this show, and although I am sad to see T.J. Miller leave, I think they have enough of a quality core cast left to keep things rolling along. The writing is fantastic and the show has so many great characters and personalities. Full disclosure, I have rewatched quite a few episodes and they never get old. The cast includes Thomas Middleditch, Kumail Nanjiani, Martin Starr, and Josh Brener. Check out the newly released teaser trailer below!
Ted Takes Fun Facts, HBO's Silicon Valley:
- Much of the main cast were friends or friendly in real life because they knew each other from the stand-up comedy world. Thomas Middleditch, T.J. Miller, Kumail Nanjiani, and Josh Brener are all seasoned stand-up comedians.
- Kumail Najiani (Dinesh) is from Pakistan and one of his college majors was in Computer Science.
- During the opening credits, you can see how the Facebook signal "eats" the Whatsapp and Oculus signal, referring to their purchase by Facebook.
