Hey Gasmii! Bravo just announced the new show I’ve been working on since this past May, Silicon Valley Start-Ups. It’s a docu about the young tech entrepreneurs in the Bay Area of California all fighting their way in the start-up, VC, and entrepreneurial world. 

From the Bravo press release: 

Executive produced by new media entrepreneur Randi Zuckerberg and premiering Monday November 5 at 10 p.m. ET/PT, the new docu-series “Silicon Valley Start-Ups,” explores the intertwining lives of a group of young professionals on the path to becoming Silicon Valley’s next great success stories.

I think you’ll dig this show. It’s a little younger compared to other Bravo shows, but it’s certainly filled with a ton of drama! More on this later! ;-)

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    I look forward to it Nads. It is nice to see a new show that isn’t RH or Top Chef. I like both but Bravo does need some fresh blood. I am sure it will be great Nads.

    Thank YOU!!! You are absolutely the sweetest. I think you’ll like it. It’s something Bravo hasn’t done before. There will be drama for sure, but on the work side– the start-up world is pretty interesting, and something that hasn’t been seen on TV in this realm. I hope we were able to capture it in a way that’s compelling. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!

    @Nads, I’m intrigued by the premise that there is ongoing drama in the work/lives (?) of the Silicon Vally entrepreneurs. Raised one, so it will be nice to see what goes on at work.

    We’re still tweaking everything because we’re in edit, but the show captures the start-ups of 20-something to 31(ish)…so it’s interesting. One of our cast said it best. She said something along of the lines of Silicon Valley is like high school, but everyone has money. It’s a really intriguing world. I learn something new everyday from working on it. I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

    I’m going to watch it!
    I’m actually trying to get a real job right now and am hoping to work somewhere where everyone is young, so it will be interesting to see the workplace dynamics that happen in a place like that.
    And it’s a nice change to watch people actually work and stuff instead of watching them sit around the house, go to the bar, go on vacation, go into a restaurant, shop, go to the plastic surgeon’s office, and do countless other shit that I cannot afford and don’t really want to see.

    “The show drew scorn from tech insiders early after a trailer depicted a group of vacuous-seeming twentysomethings drinking and taking their shirts off.”

    Nads – pulled from SFGate. Is this true?

    @labowner – not entirely true. Drinking yes, but stripping clothes off…No. I mean, afterall it’s a Bravo show so we have a lot of drama, but it’s all very real–it’s a true follow doc, which makes it rad. I hope it does well, it’s a lot younger than the other Bravo shows they have on-air. What I personally love about this show is that these people have real stakes, and real journies.
