That, of course, followed their lame-o commercial. I loved the little girl with the nasal cannula spinning around. Lol.

Didn't laugh once
Hope the show recovers bc that was bad

Oh and your logo looks like a sideways vagina, which I find racist.

For example, when he ignored everyone and then went off on a weird rant on beetles affecting crop growth and how that had made him decide to invest in some farming company.
Enjoyed the first episode, but agree that replacing Peter Gregory with a female Peter Gregory is an odd choice.

This lady just seems ultra data driven and socially awkward. I think as the show progresses, the differences will become a little more apparent.

It's basically like dating.
You put some nice clothes on and go out for the night. Some chick sees you, loves the way you look and what you're wearing. She starts rubbing on your junk. You get a handy on the first date. You start dating. (Series A)
Typically, she starts wanting more and more attention from you and you figure if you do a couple of different things (join a gym, buy a new car), she'll still like you. But you tell her you'll do all this stuff but you've got to get more physical. You want a BJ. She agrees, you join the gym, get swole and life goes on. (Series B).
This cycle can continue a while... And there are other things as well; Bridge Financing (side pieces) and equity, roll-overs, investment committees, etc, etc.
At some point, you're both clearly done with each other and you've already started looking around because, let's face it, chicks get old and ugly, so you've probably told her you don't think you should be exclusive anymore; and she agrees. You find a freaking amazing piece at some joint, you fall in love the moment you see her, you do the deed (first night) and keep the relationship going. (Exit to Private Equity or Strategic Partner).
That's about as simple as I can put it having worked at two VC companies, exited one and now at a PE shop.

Can one of you explain how the venture capital process works and the difference between Series A and Series B stuff?

The best part of that last scene was the look and reactions of the two at the table. That is exactly how I feel when one of those damn bands comes up to my table. You barely acknowledge them, look once or twice and give them a failed smile, and just hope it ends and they go away.
