Season 2 of Silicon Valley, a Mike Judge comedy, premieres on Sunday, April 12th at 10pm on HBO. The show takes a look at startup culture in Silicon Valley and has drawn comparisons to Office Space and Party Down from critics. The first season was very funny once it hit stride after a few episodes. The second season will consist of 10 episodes.

In the high-tech gold rush of modern Silicon Valley, the people most qualified to succeed are the least capable of handling success. Mike Judge (“Office Space,” “Beavis & Butthead,” “King of the Hill”) brings his irreverent brand of humor to HBO in the new comedy series SILICON VALLEY. Partially inspired by Judge’s own experiences as a Silicon Valley engineer in the late ‘80s, the show kicks off its eight-episode season this April.

Cast:

Thomas Middleditch as Thomas
T. J. Miller as Erlich
Zach Woods as Jared Dunn
Kumail Nanjiani as Dinesh
Martin Starr as Gilfoyle
Amanda Crew as Monica
Josh Brener as Nelson "Big Head" Bighetti
Jimmy O. Yang as Jian Yang
Suzanne Cryer as Laurie Bream​

Awesome thread again, Cornballer. Can't wait for this season!

 

[rugioh]

Fantastic first season, how can I juggle Mad Men/GoT/Silicon Valley all in one day?

 

[Busty]

Do we know how many episodes are in this season? I believe it was eight in the first so is it eight again or could we see a 10 to 12 ep season?

Nice OT thread OP.

My favorite scene from the first season

 

[jett]

Best comedy show right here.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

[Deaf Spacker]

It starts 20th April in the UK, can't wait.

Toss out the trash that is Mad Men. Done!

Snack Dick!

 

[Mr. F]

First few eps of season 1 didn't really grab me but in recent weeks I've started following Thomas Middleditch's work and the dude is hilarious to me. Going to give it another shot.

 

[kris.]

Thomas, Martin, and Kumail were all on CBB last week and it was amazing.

It takes a little while to get rolling. The back end of the season is really funny.

 

[reKon]

Dat GoT + Silicon Valley combo. Sunday nights are incredible. Based HBO

 

[Foggy]

I've died and gone to hell

 

[El Daniel]

Loved the first season. Can't wait.

 

[Aiii]

So happy this is back!

 

[WesternHeretic]

It takes a little while to get rolling. The back end of the season is really funny.

Hmm i stopped on episode 4. Maybe I'll give the last 4 a shot sometime this week.

 

[Trouble]

I'm not sure they can ever top tip-to-tip efficiency, it may have been the perfect dick joke.

 

[Linius]

I'm in, can't wait

 

[Syph Medwes]

Hype levels at 9001

I'm not sure they can ever top tip-to-tip efficiency, it may have been the perfect dick joke.

undebatably the greatest dick joke ever

 

[ahoyhoy]

My favorite character portrait from Pillars of Eternity is back for S2!

 

[Nozem]

YES.

Can't wait!

 

[Kurita]

Yes! Yes! Yes!
So hyped for this.

 

[Juz]

Really excited for this.

First season was great.

 

[Law]

I just rewatched season 1 a few days ago and I really can't wait for the new season.

 

[Trouble]

I should have mentioned earlier I am fully on board the hype train. I really hope they can maintain the momentum that the show gained over the first season. It just kept getting better and better until the finale was just soooo damn good.

Also, a bit unrelated but T.J. Miller did an amazing stand up routine about the time he almost died from a crazy genetic brain malformation he had. It literally changed his personality while he was filming that Yogi Bear moving before nearly killing him. They had to remove part of his brain.

[Burt]

This is the thing that gifs were made for

 

[Struct09]

Heck yeah, can't freaking wait!!

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I'm not sure they can ever top tip-to-tip efficiency, it may have been the perfect dick joke.

man....I absolutely died when that scene was happening. I couldn't recall laughing out loud that hard in years before then.

 

[Judderman]

Mi casa es...mi casa.

I'm not sure they can ever top tip-to-tip efficiency, it may have been the perfect dick joke.

Now I have to watch this scene again. Middle out! Can't wait for the new season.

 

[GK86]

Aww shit, been looking forward to this.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Another underrated aspect of this show is the music. Mike Judge always picks good shit.

 

[Train of Midnight]

So pumped

 

[WarrenMax007]

Daredevil all weekend and then this, oh yes. Season 1 was very, very good.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

After a couple week's reprieve, Sundays are once again packed to the gills - Mad Men, Game of Thrones, Veep, Silicon Valley. Whee!

 

[Bomber Bob]

can't wait

 

[tycoonheart]

Can't wait. Ehrlich has become one of my favorite TV show characters.

 

[TripOpt55]

Loved the first season. Excited for the new one!
