I'm still waiting for more on Jared the German. That's a storyline that NEEDS to be explained or at least returned to.

The whole thing with Silicon Valley is it's written almost like a mocku-drama of real life events in the actual Valley, but they are taking all the disasters and rolling them into one group to make it interesting Being forced out with the enFrame Barker types happens all the time.

They have CEOs of top companies, including twitter consult on the show.

I always look forward to seeing an Erlich-Jian Yang interaction.
I hope this means Jian Yang will be appearing more frequently now.

That episode had a couple great callbacks. Tabs vs. spaces, and the celebratory smoke were both awesome.

I honestly don't know if the show will be very good without him.

Feels like a core piece to me.

Tough loss. His guest role on Crashing was Road Comic reality perfection.

Yeah could be the beginning of the end of the show as you can argue a lot of the big laughs revolve around his character.

Could be argued the same when Christopher Welch died, but the show found away to adapt, although TJ Miller is much more ingrained in the show at this point.

Curious about Gavin now as well.

While fighting with Jian Yang on the driveway, he gets plowed into by Russ Hanneman, who failed to see him.

Or he becomes filthy rich himself and gets decapitated by billionaire doors, which he fails to understand.

I guess on that note, the "Hot Ones" Youtube series had Thomas Middleditch and TJ Miller on. Middleditch is a pretty funny guy.
