TV show description:
This Silicon Valley startup comedy follows four socially awkward underdogs as they try to hit the big time.
Convinced their algorithm is the next billion dollar idea, group leader and CEO Trey Barnett (Joe Dinicol) persuades his best friend, CTO and coding genius Avinash ‘Nash’ Dagavi (Karan Soni) to drop out of Stanford University and take their Social Dating app ‘BRB’ to the Mind Hub Communal Workspace.
Porn obsessed divorcee Security Engineer Hobbes (Jon Daily) is recruited to join the team. At 35 years old, he feels ‘like 95 in Valley years’.
Completing the group is misfit programmer Mitchell (Charlie Saxton). He has an unhealthy obsession with the beautiful Mikki (Maya Erksine).
In a world where investors are buying napkin sketches from high school dropouts, Trey has watched younger and less deserving ‘brogrammers’ taste the success he craves so much with their ‘one hit wonder apps’.
Trey decides to take matters into his own hands when he gatecrashes a party thrown by influential investor George ‘The Murch’ Murchison Jr. (Ed Begley Jr.). After 20 ignored emails, this is Trey’s chance to make his pitch in person.
Episode #11 — This Is It
Armed with insider information from Jordan, Trey must decide whether or not to sell BRB. He mends fences with Murch and seeks his advice after the rest of the team votes to take Casper’s deal.
First released: January 17, 2014.
What do you think? Do you like the Betas TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I would watch season 2 of Betas!!!
My wife and I were enjoying Betas. We were definitely disappointed to hear that there won’t be a season 2.
I think betas is a great show and really started getting good towards the end of the season and the fact that you cancelled the show is crap absolute crap! Definitely hoped for a season 2
Sad no season 2…
You suck no season 2 ass face people making decisions with no commitment. I think people didn’t even know about Betas… but know we do and kinda sad.
Smart show…stupid decision. And you guys put on a show like The Tick and continue a show about the DC Cartel? Welcome to American TV.
It took a few episodes to finally start to live the show. It needs to be resolved with at least 1 more season. This is as good as alpha house.
Betas was a great show, smart, funny, and avoided some of the pitfalls that Silicon Valley falls into (great show as well). It was great to have a space for John Daley to showcase his talents. Ed Bagley Jr was fantastic.
Big mistake to cancel it. Loved betas s1
Love this show I think it was a mistake canceling it.
I would have loved to see “Betas” renewed for a second season. Given the shows ratings I feel that Amazon made a mistake in canceling the show.
so F’n true rating reviews and just the feel of it kept me hooked. I watched the whole seaon in 1 day . I was hooked sad they cancelled it had such a good plot. Please bring it back. **** 15 mil make it 200 mil lmao Real friends.
