Maybe I’m just jaded but I feel like this has been done before. Maybe not particularly well, but the material is still tired. And from the looks of it, the series falls in to the same trap as others, trying to make it a “zero to hero” story (heroes from zeroes would probably be better wordplay) about geeks who are out to “change the world” with some amazing app that helps you find the best food truck taco, or allow you to rate laundromats or something. And then they run in to the morality questions about how much money to take from the big bad VC, and of course they can’t get too successful because then they’re just rich startup douches. So witty banter, lots of tech talk about algorithms, self-deprecating nerd jokes and struggles with getting girls, getting rich and of course, never actually fitting in. Not something I care to watch, but maybe that’s because I live it.
