HBO Renews 'Veep' and Freshman Comedy 'Silicon Valley' For New Seasons!

HBO has just announced that they will be renewing two of their Sunday night hit comedy series.

Veep and Silicon Valley will be coming back to the network for new seasons. The news comes shortly after HBO made the announcement that they were picked up Game of Thrones for a fifth and sixth season.

Veep, starring Emmy Award Winner, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, will be returning for a fourth season. The show centers around Dreyfus's character, Selina Meyer, who has become vice president and realizes that it is nothing like she envisioned it would be. The ten-episode third season of the show premiered on April 6.

The show also stars Tony Hale, Anna Chlumsky, Reid Scott, and Matt Walsh.

Silicon Valley just premiered this month for an eight episode first season and it has been receiving great reviews as well as ratings for the network. Thomas Middleditch, T.J. Miller, and Zach Woods star in this comedy series from Mike Judge the mind behind Office Space, Beavis & Butt-head and King of the Hill as well as Alec Berg known for Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Judge draws from his own experience working as an engineer in Silicon Valley during the late 80's, while writing the show.

Other comedies that HBO has renewed for the 2015 season include critically-acclaimed hits Girls and Looking.
