"show most startup founders will refuse to watch"
Hah! Anecdotally, I've had the opposite experience watching the show and running a startup in the valley. Most of my co-founder friends have seen it and see it as a sort of catharsis.
"We aren't the only ones, this happens to everyone, so much so, there's a show about it"
And then there's the inspirational, "Let's have the team coalesce around a deadline and jam out something that's never been done before", episodes. Also very real.
- ibudiallo 8y agoWe talked a lot about how many founders that somewhat found success, try to be Gavins or Russ Hannemans. But the show doesn't portray these people as the visionaries they think they are. In fact it makes fun of them.
- rorykoehler 8y agoEven the Presidents shit stinks. I'm really wondering how fragile your ego has to be to be offended by watching Silicon Valley. Are these really people who should be trying to "change the world"? Better to work on themselves first.
