The eight-episode first season of "Barry" launched on March 25. Hader stars in the title role as a depressed, low-rent hitman from the Midwest who finds himself drawn into a community of acting students while on a hit job in LA.

"Silicon Valley" returned for its eight-episode fifth season on March 25. The show takes a comic look at the modern-day epicenter of the high-tech gold rush, where the people most qualified to succeed are the least capable of handling success. The current season will conclude on May 13.
"Barry" was created by Alec Berg and Bill Hader. "Silicon Valley" was created by Mike Judge, John Altschuler, and Dave Krinsky.
