INTERESTING

Mike Judge, one of the creators of the series worked as a programmer on a fighter plane. In 1987 he lived in Silicon Valley. There he decided to join Parallax – it’s a very small startup company with only 40 employees – there he started working as an engineer. He hated his co-workers for their attitude and ways of work and decided to quit this job as fast as possible. This experience made him create the background for the series about the way the things happening in companies with region’s people. He understood that people that seem unable to have the best chances to succeed – the only thing they need is to get support and sensible attitude.

Christopher Evan Welch died during the creation of the fifth episode – he had lung cancer. The directors had to fully rewrite the scripts for the second season.

The original soundtrack written for the series is Tobacco’s “Stretch Your Face”.
