HBO announces Silicon Valley’s final season premiere date

HBO has set a premiere date of Sunday, October 27 at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT for the sixth and final season of their tech-related comedy SILICON VALLEY. Consisting of seven episodes, the Piped Piper gang are poised to celebrate their last hurrah in style before venturing toward a digital sunset, seemingly forver.

SILICON VALLEY stars Thomas Middleditch as Richard, Zach Woods as Jared, Kumail Nanjiani as Dinesh, Martin Starr as Gilfoyle, Amanda Crew as Monica, Jimmy O. Yang as Jian-Yang, Suzanne Cryer as Laurie Bream, Matt Ross as Gavin Belson and Josh Brener as Big Head.

“Silicon Valley has been a career and life highlight for us,” said series executive producers/showrunners Mike Judge and Alec Berg about the laugh-out-loud comedy, back in May. “We’ll miss it desperately, but we’ve always let Pied Piper’s journey guide the way, and Season 6 seems to be the fitting conclusion. We are forever indebted to our incredible cast, crew, and partners at HBO. At a certain point, there’s only so much we can do to make the world a better place.”

The show follows the misadventures of Richard Hendricks, a Silicon Valley engineer trying to build his own company called Pied Piper. Throughout the show's history, the tech start-up has had their share of ups and downs, which will all come to an end with the program's final season arrives.

“In terms of last season, it’s a natural question; we have had conversations with them,” HBO president of programming Casey Bloys told Deadline in February. “Obviously when you get to the sixth season of a show, you have to talk about how much more is there in this, do you want to do more, so we have had those conversations. We are open to any version but, as we did with Veep, we put it to (the producers) and say, what do you think. They need to get in the room wit the writers and see what feels right.”

The sixth and final season of SILICON VALLEY will make its HBO premiere on Sunday, October 27 at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.
