I love Silicon Valley, it's one of my few non-streaming conventional weekly television shows I watch. It's probably my favorite show, although I just started watching the Good Place and really enjoy that. But for 26 minutes a week every Sunday night I can pretend I'm smart and know the ins and outs of the tech world. To me that is quite soothing. As you know everybody loves to pretend that they're smarter than they actually are and are not wasting their life away so I'm not alone here. I'll be quite honest, I am v worried about the future of Silicon Valley as a program. I know the actual Silicon Valley will be fine as technology continues to take over all of mankind. By that I mean I'm only thinking about the possibility of the show ending right now and it will be out of my brain 2 seconds after I finish this blog. I love the show, but I'm not nearly as emotionally invested in at as a I was The Office or Parks and Rec back in the day. Idk the ins and outs of why T.J. Miller left but to me it is a mistake. How many shows have lost stars and gotten better? You can answer that question and email me the reply because I'm quite curious. The Office was never the same without Steve Carrell. Sure the 9th season was refreshing but I did not enjoy the Robert California year. Erlich Bachman is no Michael Scott but was probably the 2nd or 3rd most important character in the show imo. I just don't see how the show can go on much longer without him. There were a few laughs in the trailer for sure. The jawn line by Jared was the highlight for me. Andy Daily as the doctor is one of my favorite minor roles in TV history, he's so funny. But tbh this seems like the beginning of the end for SV. Idk how much longer the show can go on with Richard and the boys coming up with a great idea, then having some sort of hiccup with their Hooli/Gavin Belson? Maybe this new internet will be their final battle. It's okay because it's just a tv show and we all have far bigger worries in life and five seasons is a pretty solid run for this show, but they need to switch things up. iI feels like the same season over and over again with minor changes. As I say that, maybe the loss of Erlich can be a good thing and change the show's composition. Wow I just did a total 180 in a mere paragraph and a half which is no small feat. Either way I'm excited to see what is in store for SV on March 25th.
