If you like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Silicon Valley you might want to check out Mythic Quest (www.imdb.com)

I feel like it leans more into the latter as a kind of tech industry comedy. It stars Rob McElhenney who played Mac in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and I feel like a lot of the humor his character adds is present in Mythic Quest.

I wanted to share this because I was pleasantly surprised by Mythic Quest and I feel like other people who are looking for a lighthearted comedy to watch might enjoy it.

meh, it's like the watered down splenda of neither.

Agree, I watched it and it was good enough to get to the end, but it's nothing stand out, especially compared to IASIP and silicon valley.

Yeah I've started it because of this post and I like it because it has all the ingredients for me (office life I can laugh at now that I'm out of it, MMORPG to relive my glory days from WoW, great actors I love, etc), but it's definitely missing the special sauce that made these two other shows much more special, it's hard to pinpoint exactly though.

Yeah I mean it was fine but missing the spark of both those shows.
