So after watching this, there are a lot of shots taken at bunch of companies and some startups (e.g. Hooli == Google, etc). I can't say if those are fair to make though.

As a show, I thought it was alright with cringe humour around the place.

What I like though, is HBO went a made a smart decision of uploading this straight to YouTube instead of the time line being something like: Upload to HBO GO -> Have it pirated to download the video -> Uploaded to several different video streaming services. They stopped losing all those views this way..


This would be great if it wasn't country restricted
