I'm glad I'm not the only one. I was really excited about this show (big fan of Mike Judge in general) but it feels like what someone would think SV was like if they based their entire impression on Techcrunch articles and 80s nerd / guru tropes.

It's not a documentary. The aim is to make people laugh while not straying too far from reality that it's completely unbelievable. I think they achieved that. Personally I didn't think I'd enjoy it at all but I found it kind of funny and will probably return for ep 2.

Fair enough, I guess I was hoping for the satire to be a bit more original. It was just the first episode though so I have some faith that there will be some more subtle humor as well later on.
