Silicon Valley: Mike Judge (computer) geeks out with new HBO comedy

April 3, 2014 Lori Acken

Before he made us simultaneously blush and belly laugh with irreverent comedies like 1999’s Office Space and the edgy animated sitcoms Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hill, Mike Judge spent the late ’80s putting his physics degree to use as a Silicon Valley engineer. Now Judge commemorates that experience in HBO’s new live-action comedy Silicon Valley, which focuses on socially awkward computer programmer Richard (Thomas Middleditch) and his trio of comrades who live in the home of eccentric millionaire Erlich (T.J. Miller) while plotting a startup of their own. In exchange for free accommodations at his “Hacker Hostel,” […]

Fargo TV series captures flavor of Coen Brothers film

April 2, 2014 StayTuned Staff

First, let’s explain what the new Fargo TV series on FX is not. It’s not a continuation of the story begun in the 1996 Coen brothers film that has become a cinematic classic. None of the characters are the same, and the setting is different. Nor is it a parody or satire. It can best be described as a riff, mining the same droll Midwestern sensibilities and placing them amid a story that is always intriguing and at times shockingly violent. After seeing the first episode of Fargo — which premieres on FX Tuesday, April 15 at 10pm ET — it’s […]

April 2, 2014 Ruth Boulet

The library is open, hunties! RuPaul’s Drag Race heard my plea and has posted extended video of the reads from Episode 6. Hooray! You won’t get ALL the reads, but you’ll get a lot more than were shown in the episode. I’m forever grateful for this added content, because it is now CLEAR why Darienne Lake won this mini-challenge.
