The series follows computer programmer Richard Hendriks (Thomas Middleditch) as he forms his own startup company after receiving investment from venture capitalist Peter Gregory (Christopher Evan Welch), who is impressed by Richard's data compression algorithm used in his Pied Piper music app. Meanwhile, after Richard declines rival company Hooli's offer to buyout the app for millions of dollars they reverse engineer the algorithm and create their own product. Richard and his team race against time to complete their project in order to present at TechCrunch Disrupt, where Hooli CEO Gavin Belson (Matt Ross) is also due to appear. When the Hooli product turns out to be superior to Pied Piper Richard spends the night trying to improve the compression engine. Will he succeed in time? (Warner Bros. Home Entertainment)

Silicon Valley (2014)
The first and second season both have a very slow start, but they make up for it in the second half. I wonder how many people didn't even make it to the second half, there must have been quite a few. The third season is much better in this respect and seems like the most complex of the three. I’d give it a 4*+. The series is enjoyable despite being mostly about programming, which I know nothing about, as well as about stock market operations, which I also know nothing about, so watching it feels like watching The Big Bang Theory which is fun in spite of not knowing anything about physics. The best character for me is hands down the Canadian immigrant and Satanist Gilfoyle.

Season 4 (2017) (S04)
Season 4 didn't disappoint. On the contrary, I think it’s my favorite so far. While the previous seasons had a somewhat slower start, I really enjoyed the opening three episodes of this season and I didn’t get bored for a second. It was peppered with great moments, mostly featuring Bertram Gilfoyle. Yes, I admit I am not unbiased, Gilfoyle is my favorite character, and I don’t think there’s a chance of anybody taking his place.

Success Failure (2017) (S04E01)
With the first two seasons, I always had the same issue: the first three episodes didn’t really grab me, but then I’d end up loving the rest. This time, however, I was hooked from the very first episode. Just like in all previous episodes, Bertram Gilfoyle steals the show with his perfect one-liners.

Intellectual Property (2017) (S04E03)
Yep, season three is off to a fantastic start, and I've been laughing at every episode like it's my job. Plus, I've picked up some useful tips, like how to find a great topic for discussion on a first date.

The Blood Boy (2017) (S04E05)
It didn't quite hit the heights of the first three episodes, but it still had me laughing. Some of the ideas were genuinely hilarious, like the garage within a garage and the clever way to break up with someone without leaving a bad impression.

The Patent Troll (2017) (S04E07)
The quality remains consistently high, and my enjoyment hasn't dipped a bit. Each episode features a random side plot that has me in stitches, and for this one, it was definitely the fridge.

Server Error (2017) (S04E10)
This didn't really feel like a finale to me; it seemed more like a setup for the next season. The most emotional moment was definitely Anton's death, while the funniest had to be when the fridges took over the world.
