Silicon Valley: Season 4 Teaser Trailer (HBO)
Silicon Valley, HBO’s critically acclaimed comedy series set in the world of high-tech, returns for its fourth season in a couple months, and the cable network has offered fans a peek at what they can expect from the next batch of episodes.

The teaser trailer for the fourth season features Richard Hendricks (Thomas Middleditch) making some big decisions about his future with the company he helped create.

Created by Mike Judge, John Altschuler, and Dave Krinsky, Silicon Valley follows a group of software engineers, programmers, and entrepreneurs in the heart of California’s technology-nurturing region known as Silicon Valley.

Since debuting in April 2014, the series has gone on to be nominated for and win a long list of Golden Globe and Primetime Emmy awards. Along with Middleditch, the series stars Deadpool actor T.J. Miller and The Office actor Zach Woods, as well as Kumail Nanjiani, Martin Starr, Josh Brener, Amanda Crew, Matt Ross, Suzanne Cryer, and Jimmy O. Yang.

Previous seasons had the show’s cast of characters see their fortunes rise and fall amid the highly competitive world of high-tech startups and technology investment. The third season concluded with the original, core cast thrust back together again after dealing with one crisis after another both from within their company and outside it. The season finale had them pondering an entirely new focus for their efforts, uncertain of what the future might hold.

The fourth season of Silicon Valley is scheduled to premiere at 10 p.m. Sunday, April 23, on HBO.

All empires fall in the first teaser for Foundation season 2
Lee Pace in Foundation.

Thanks in large part to Star Wars, the concept of rebel versus empire has become a common part of space opera sci-fi stories. However, the empire at the heart of Apple TV+'s Foundation isn't cast in the same light as the Empire from George Lucas' epic. Instead, Isaac Asimov's Foundation stories predate Star Wars by almost four decades, and they present a future where the goal isn't to bring down the empire. It's to ensure that humanity has a future when the empire inevitably collapses. And if the first teaser trailer for Foundation season 2 is any indication, the fall of the empire may come sooner than expected.

All the things we want to see in The Mandalorian season 4

Lucasfilm and Disney+'s flagship Star Wars series The Mandalorian finished season3 with less fanfare than the first two outings. Overall, the season still earned a generally positive reception, but its comparatively more mixed bag of episodes was tough to ignore.

It certainly didn't suffer from the same intrusive problems as The Book of Boba Fett, and its last two episodes felt like more what fans expected. Even so, the story had more of an identity crisis when it came to its overarching narrative. Couple that with the more episodic stories that didn't use their time wisely, and there are several things fans might hope to see in the inevitable season 4.
