Valley of the Boom - Season 1
In a remarkable documentary series, we live a wide range of powerful historical and documentary events. We start with those events where TheGlobe.com needs to bring in a potential investor and it seems that the company is not convinced it would be entirely appropriate. On the other hand, Fene launches a new company called Pixelon with the help of a new investment company, where it can be fruitful and make a fuss around the world.

Simply put, a series that spends lots of time talking about initial public offerings and raking in billions doesn't come close to making the sale.

A tonal mishmash of documentary and narrative chronicling the early dot-com era boom and bust , the series is also a missed opportunity to connect the past and present.

The talking-head interviews with real Silicon Valley veterans (and modern-day experts) aren't effectively placed next to the acted-out narrative with Whitford, Morris, et al. Instead of complementing one another, they seem superfluous.

At just six one-hour episode..."Valley of the Boom" runs out of gas well before its conclusion and begins to feel padded, especially in its last hour.

Valley of the Boom can seem ramshackle. But that's the beauty of it, really.

Boom is entertaining yet can be as exhausting as it is illuminating.
January 10, 2019
A nutty sprawl that's often amusing, occasionally interesting, sporadically informative and almost completely off the rails. A hoot.
