View Details Silicon Valley: Season 3 Videos 1:32 Silicon Valley: Season 3 Trailer View All Videos (1) Silicon Valley: Season 3 Photos View All Photos (36) Tv Season Info The third season of the comedy series starts soon after the ending of Season 2. When Richard (Thomas Middleditch) is demoted to chief technology officer, he butts heads with Pied Piper's new CEO Jack Barker (Stephen Tobolowsky), who has very different hopes and strategies for the company. The team, however, have faith in Richard and try to help him develop his ideas in secret. Hooli has its own problems: Belson (Matt Ross) manages to fire the entire Nucleus team, which leads to several technical issues with the product, due to nobody else knowing how to make it work. As both companies try to finally launch their final product, they also have to deal with corporate espionage, budget problems, corporate politics, takeovers, buyouts, petty disagreements and an unhealthy dose of bad luck.

Apr 26, 2016 | Rating: A- | Full Review… Ben Travers indieWire Top Critic Silicon Valley, much like Beavis & Butthead and Judge's other work, perfectly balances the stupid with the brilliant. Apr 22, 2016 | Full Review… Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Top Critic Now, with season three... the comedy has become even more tightly written and dependably entertaining. Apr 21, 2016 | Full Review… Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe Top Critic The oddness of their newfound stability only helps make the show a gutsy look at how success requires failing again...and again...and again. May 31, 2018 | Rating: A- | Full Review… Shirley Li Entertainment Weekly Top Critic You might be wondering how the show could have any targets left after two brilliant seasons. Oh, trust us -- we folk who encounter the tech world and its people on a regular basis -- they are only getting started over at Silicon Valley. Apr 20, 2016 | Full Review… Tim Goodman Hollywood Reporter Top Critic Audiences seem to enjoy Silicon Valley and with the way the show is going, I don't see that waning anytime soon. Aug 12, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Allison Rose FlickDirect Silicon Valley is at its best when its utilizing visual and topical humor to its benefit. Luckily... many scenes that utilized both to solidify the jokes it wanted to tell. Oct 10, 2018 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review… Alan French AwardsCircuit.com The trick here will be the payoff, which is something Silicon Valley has been almost unreasonably good at so far. May 31, 2018 | Full Review… Brian Grubb Uproxx It's a series that, for the third season in a row, finds power in juxtapositions, and crafts its satire easily by exposing the absurd in sharp relief to the ordinary. May 31, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review… Allison Keene Collider In spite of a few off storylines, Silicon Valley: Season 3 remained consistently entertaining throughout. May 31, 2018 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… Max Nicholson IGN Movies For Silicon Valley, the circuitous, repetitive path to success is the one thing that makes us keep rooting for these guys. May 31, 2018 | Full Review… Laura Bradley Vanity Fair View All Critic Reviews (24) Audience Reviews for Silicon Valley: Season 3 Apr 10, 2019 Great season and clearly showcases the acting talent. The writers and creator showcase what I believe is the best season of the show. Brendan N Super Reviewer Jun 21, 2020 Seru bang nontonnya.. ikutin aja Bimo A Oct 20, 2019 Love it. Still on repeat Curt B Oct 17, 2018 Its funnier than ever in its third season. Good B Aug 10, 2017 Always gives me a good laugh! great show! Tony W Jun 19, 2017 Silicon Valley [Season 3], tells the story when Richard is demoted to chief technology officer, he butts heads with Pied Piper's new CEO Jack Barker, who has very different hopes and strategies for the company. The team, however, have faith in Richard and try to help him develop his ideas in secret. Hooli has its own problems: Belson manages to fire the entire Nucleus team, which leads to several technical issues with the product, due to nobody else knowing how to make it work. As both companies try to finally launch their final product, they also have to deal with corporate espionage, budget problems, corporate politics, takeovers, buyouts, petty disagreements and an unhealthy dose of bad luck. Overall, the third season of Silicon Valley cannot keep getting better and better. Mike Judge continues to create an exquisite character wheel that is so likable, and too, to the new ideas are very likable... I just love it! Jeremiah C May 11, 2017 Silicon Valley: Season 3 Another thrilling season from our beloved tech gang Cattera Y Apr 16, 2017 The first and second seasons were great, but the third is already showing some strain. Time for these guys to get their damn act together and get funding, and go public, because the Two Broke Girls, er, Five Broke Guys premise only goes so far. I actually have my doubts I'll even bother with Season 4. Nothing sadder than to see a good show set up the ramp by the shark tank. Plus, while the Erlich character is a complex, evolving jackass, Richard is simply turning into a whiny pain in the ass. Maximillian S Nov 29, 2016 You cannot hate Gilfoyle and Danish anymore after this season! Adrian C Nov 20, 2016 1 & 2 were awesome... 3 seems like they're turning into Lost.
