Once upon a time in Silicon Valley…
Turns out,Super PumpedandPulp Fictionhave more than one cast member in common.
The idea emerged spontaneously in the writers' room as the creative team was brainstorming ideas.

“And suddenly, it just made sense that that’s what we needed.
And somehow, it just seemed like his was the only voice.
We never considered any other voice but Quentin’s.”
So to be disruptive within the style of the show felt really organic.
And then in the office, he had to take city after city [for Uber].
So how far a leap is it for him to see what he’s doing as a video game?
And why not show it that way?"
And, fittingly, that anything-goes spirit is reminiscent of the work of a certain director.
Super Pumped: The Battle for Uberairs Sundays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Showtime.
