The first episode of Nathan Barley, Chris Morris and Charlie Brooker's British sitcom satirizing hip media and startup scenesters in mid-2000s Shoreditch. Cynical writer Dan Ashcroft finds himself idolized by the moronic Nathan Barley.
Why Hacker News points people here: Recommended as a savage, ahead-of-its-time parody of startup and tech culture.
