That's too bad about Miller's drug use. It definitely seemed like more of him getting shitcanned according to the sub-Reddits I read during the season.
I saw him perform standup in CoMo about a year-and-a-half ago. Pretty much the routine he did for his HBO special. It was really good, but he did tear into an audience member pretty well.
I have a feeling he's one of those guys who is brilliant but just too volatile to stay in any one place for long. [Reply]

It sucks for him, too.
If he is looking for a replacement Hollywood power couple...
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively to step in...? [Reply]
"People don't want to follow an idea, they want to follow a leader. Look at the last guy to create a new Internet -- Al Gore. His ideas were excellent, but he talked like a narcoleptic plantation-owner, so he lost the presidency to a fake cowboy, and now he makes apocalypse-porn." [Reply]
Eventually they have to have a payoff on the show. Not since the first season have they actually seen success to where every season since then has been them narrowly escaping some type of legal issue or failure by some surprise twist. It's like an M. Night Shamalyan movie, but the twist hasn't been good since Season 2, and even that was pretty ridiculous. I hope the show writers actually give them the fame and power and then take it away in the next season somehow or this show is going to annoy me with how many times Judge pulls out the same thing year after year.

T.J. Miller Arrested for Calling in False Bomb Threat
T.J. Miller — the former star of HBO’s “Silicon Valley” — was arrested last night after calling in a fake bomb threat while traveling on a train headed to New York City.
While Miller was arrested last night, the incident in question happened back on March 18.
According to the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, Miller was charged with intentionally conveying to law enforcement false information about an explosive device on a train.
