Slightly confused. I thought Monica has a separate vote on the board. Did her boss strong-arm her into being the 3rd and majority vote for her company? I thought she could at least say, "fuck you guys, I'm with Richard on this one". She still owns a personal percentage of the company...which should make a fuck-ton of money so she should be able to quit her job.
Am I missing something or am I just saying the common sense stuff that doesn't happen in every TV show? 6/15/2015 9:20:06 AM |

while I'm a big fan of the jokes and back-and-forth between the guys, I'm getting a bit tired of the Entourage-zation of the overall arc of the show
I hope that in season 3 they get away from the "how are they gonna get out of this one?" that has happened in nearly every episode in the 1st two seasons 6/15/2015 1:14:12 PM |

^^i agree, they should just let them get the billion dollars, then it will get really funny
^^^i'm assuming that will be the way out next season?

This show is constantly 1-step forward, 2-steps back, these guys just can't win for losing.
Also I think it definitely fits her character for Monica to just vote with her boss instead of supporting Richard. 6/16/2015 9:05:34 AM |

It's not like its a hidden, complicated message. She either votes with her company or votes with Richard. But her vote isn't automatically the company's...so I just hope they don't make it that way and make it more of a "she's towing the company line." Like ^he said.

I think I may have to cut this show from my viewing lineup - the ongoing roadblocks to their success combined with too few laughs in last night's episode may have finally done it. But then I think about the jerk off whiteboard scene and the Blaine SWOT'ing scene and the porn company nameplates and think maybe I should stick it out a few more episodes. 5/23/2016 10:31:34 AM |

yea i still had good laughs
and i was almost going to have the same complaints about too many dumb roadblocks, but last nights was almost a bottle episode, from roadblock plots anyway. The two major fuckups both were resolved w/in the episode.
i suppose that interview could come back to bite them still but it was a relative happy ending. 5/23/2016 10:23:39 PM |

I still enjoy it, but it seems to be stagnating a bit. It just doesn't feel like the main storyline is progressing much. Still love the characters, their interaction, etc. but this season has been a bit meh outside of a few really good moments (sales people, Dinesh chain, server farm scene). 5/23/2016 10:48:03 PM |

^^ Be careful about expressing such an obvious opinion about the season thus far lest some of the others become upset. But I'm not sure how anyone defends this week's episode unless you're just really into coding humor. 5/31/2016 6:21:16 AM |

I did enjoy the coding humor, but the episode did nothing for advancing the story. Always felt like the Bachmanity storyline felt super forced just to give those 2 more screentime. 5/31/2016 8:50:29 AM |

I'll admit this is the weakest episode of the season so far, but I still think the season is good.
Loved the Hawaiian Alkatraz thing and all the "assholes of the valley" bit.

it wasn't a great episode, and you're right it was just kinda filler episode. but in a way it was nice for an episode not to be as dramatic as all the others. seems like every episode Pied Piper is inches from falling apart before being saved at the last minute, or some variation of them just continually saving the company. to me that gets a bit tired...so in a way it was nice to have a differently paced episode if nothing else.6/1/2016 7:29:20 AM |
