Watched the first episode of Silicon Valley. There's a point where this show gets funny - because I've heard people talk about it and laugh at the same time - but I don't know when it happens. Is it like Parks & Rec where it takes a season?

it's a lot like Parks & Rec in that it has funny periods, and dull periods, and most of the characters are very one-note, so you'll either love 'em or hate 'em.
FWIW, I'm a big Mike Judge fan and I think Silicon Valley is the second-worst thing he's done, after The Goode Family

After listening to the Ted Danson episode of the Armchair Expert podcast I had to watch the pilot as they discussed how 'perfect' the episode is. I have to agree, it was masterfully done. Maybe it's because of the serial nature of TV now but it's just nice to basically know what you're getting into right from the jump.
