Betas

Finally someone has done a comedy series about Silicon Valley, and it's good! The show is sort of Entourage in Silicon Valley. Smart, savvy and hilarious! It's not perfect, but better than 95% of what you'll find on TV.

The show has the same nervous energy that permeates Silicon Valley startup culture. The creators obviously did their homework. They get a lot right, though the drug references are overdone and at times silly. The characters are interesting, though sometimes over the top.

The show is addicting. Can't wait for the next episode to be uploaded. Netflix and Hulu watch out, Amazon is in the game!

Being an entrepreneur myself and enjoying comedies, I have to say this is one of the best shows I've come across. The acting is great, story is hilarious, and I love all of the characters! It's what I imagine being in an accelerator and working my ass off to build a company from the ground up these days in silicon valley. 10/10 would recommend to anybody.

It's - raunchy - smart - hilarious - exciting - feel good. I didn't realize the quality of an online web series could be so high. I truly seek this type of lifestyle hustling everyday and working with my partners to build an incredible product that we truly believe in.

Betas is a highly entertaining series, that advances quickly. The plot is quick and interesting, and not over-complicated. We find ourselves relating to the cast, and overall hoping that their app makes it. You will also see a lot of character progression, as the characters seem to grow personality-wise throughout the series. The actual characters themselves do seem a little reminiscent of the cast of the big bang theory, but in general, it is as original as a show can be, what with all the other competition. I would not say that it is worth paying for amazon prime, solely to watch betas, but if you have other uses for a subscription, then maybe you could rationalize it. Overall, a very good program. I can't wait for season 2 to come out :)

I don't watch TV or Movies to point out plot or theme devices and whether they are worthy or unworthy of my attention. I have a very simple guide to my viewing enjoyment, relatable characters and unless its sci-fi, realistic circumstances and overall programming has to entertain me.

Betas has all three aspects. The relationship between Trey and Nash is really fun to watch unfold. Nash being the number guys who wants to be seen as more than just that. Trey acting like his big brother but at the same time wants to be the next Steve Jobs. Hobbes is great as the train wreck who you can't help but love. Overall, the entire cast has a really nice chemistry.

The show is miscast somewhat as a comedy though. It's written similar to Entourage, a show with comedic moments but that can also be serious as this group tries to evolve from startup to success business. I am not sure this show will get more love from Amazon or a second season but it's a pretty good show that is very watchable and has a lot of entertaining moments. It might take more than one episode but the characters alone will keep you coming back for more.

I started watching this because it's about tech so I thought great a show about tech, but it's so much more than that. The character development is incredible, the underlying stories of love, loss, heart ache, riches to be made, and losses that come have me anxiously awaiting each new episode.

I have found myself not only rooting for the app, but also feeling for the characters. I feel for their heart ache, smile for their wins, and love the story line because it does revolve around life in a start up and this new world of social apps. Great story line, amazing writing, and I can't wait to see what comes next!

I am hooked and really hope this goes on for a many seasons. I'm also curious to see what else Amazon brings out. So far they are hitting the mark very nicely! Very nicely done Amazon. +1, :Like:, moar please!!!
