Silicon Valley

Started watching it as it's on after Game of Thrones on HBO (we do a weekly viewing party at a friend's place) and gotta say, it's surprisingly good and would appeal to many of the geeks here. Premise is all about geeks doing a startup in Silicon Valley.
I think what blows me away mainly about it is hey, the geeks are the cool ones in the show! (And the evil ones, to be fair...) On a show like Big Bang Theory they're mainly there so people can laugh at their geekiness, but on this one they're just normal people or at least portrayed as I remember them being when I lived out there. A definite plus.
Anyway, I think they're just three episodes in, so thought I'd give y'all a heads up.
