I'd like to see a real debate over whether the Peter Gregory character is based on Theil or pg, that would be something entertaining to hash out.

- curiouscat321 13y agoThere's a very good chance he's simply based on prominent VCs in general (Theil, pg, maybe a little Andressean).
- FlailFast 13y agoAgreed -- seems like an amalgam. Another possible debate: who is Uhlrich based on? Proto-Sean Parker?
- firebones 13y agoSpoiler. The actor (Christopher Evan Welch) who plays him passed away from cancer this past January. Not sure how much of the show was shot before he died. Had the same thought about Uhlrich--Sean Parker, but only based on seeing "The Social Network" caricature, with added Mike Judge doofus flair.
