Gotta be Jian Yang's doing.

TJ Miller to exit ‘Silicon Valley’ ahead of season 5.

  .....great character, been at the heart of some of the show's best set-ups and one liners....hopefully he'll make a return at some stage

Keenan Feldspar's Virtual Reality thing is meant to be the shit. Apparently it allows him to see dead people (and grow an impressive beard).

You know, Russ, I've been known to fuck myself.

He actually said Gulp

TJ Miller did a comedy gig in a Kilkenny pub last night. Probably about 60 people there.

Fuck it, and me living 30 miles away and not knowing about this.

Seemed like a cool guy. His wife opened for him too. He shared the stage with Colm O Regan and Colin Murphy. Fairly random mix. He'd be an awful loss to Silicon Valley.

Loved the last scene with Dinesh as the wifi suicide bomber.

'Uncle Jerry's game'...

Genuinely laughed so hard while watching the finale. Jared is one of the best characters I've ever came across. Brilliant show, love it so much.


Oh and that ending

Spoiler

I tried to bring it to your attention, but you said "fuck you, mom."

[sambhi92]

Is it me or does anyone else think that the ending was a just rehash of season 1?

Don't get me wrong still find the show funny as fuck, but the actual storyline seems the same thing over and over again.

Yet everything is changing. Don't mind it at all since the writing is absolutely top notch.

TJ Miller's exit interview is seriously off-message, as far as public relations are concerned.  He talks about how he doesn't like Exec Producer Alec Berg, casually mentions that the guy who's he's done stand-up with for years, Thomas Middleditch is needy, looking for funnier lines, etc, and yet still being tight with his fellow actors.

It's a far cry from the bland stuff you usually hear from actors leaving shows, but hoo boy, if he's not burning all bridges with HBO, he's certainly throwing some matches around.

excellent end.. can't wait for the return.

[Phil M]

Only just got into this recently, loving it so far. Only issue with the storyline so far was

Spoiler

the whole Jared getting sent off in the container storyline

[close]

which was too far fetched even though I know it's not trying to be a serious drama or anything but otherwise it's been hilarious.

[Pistolero]

easily the most consistently funny show on TV....gutted this season's already over...shame that TJ Miller's off to new pastures, but there are so many killer characters - and side-characters (Bighead, Russ Hanneman, Laurie, Keenan Feldspar etc) that I don't think they'll have much trouble keeping the high standards up......btw, only realised last night who Keenan Feldspar is....fuck me, the lad obviously likes a burger or two

Lol holy shit.

[Ray K]

He seems a well-balanced guy, based on this Vulture interview


I only noticed on looking at the credits closely that Theranos - the fake blood testing company led by Elizabeth Holmes - is in there, with two FBI cars arriving at the building and arresting everyone coming out of it

- that was brilliant - I can easily picture a fully automated driving system with no passenger override safety protocols (given how new the tech is it's quite conceivable that the software in its early iterations could leave something like that out)

[jammy dodger]

Love this show although I do think it's been diminishing returns.

Funniest part is how sadly accurate it is in terms of running your own struggling business...Constantly lurching from one disaster to the next, trying to figure out what the hell you're supposed to be.

[Nitramdorf]

Series 5 is on in the UK this Thursday. 10 pm. Apparently there is no Bachman anymore. He's left the show due to being too busy.
