This show is made of engineers by engineers for engineers. Its a mammoth fest of technocratic dudes who try to imagine away their stale dull lives spent typing coma inducing code into a paradise where they are still coding coma inducing programs but now, they are their own prison-masters. The creators of the show, like all engineers have a thumb-rule algorithmic approach to "storytelling"" as they call it, since on closer inspection, it resembles more like hallucinated tumbling forth of incidents which somehow all come together in the end, albeit through some "cute" sentimentality like the speech of a management executive at the end of Episode 5. Sentimental coddling of the generation is the new fashion and TVF is milking this.

Of course all this is not deliberate as the people in real lives probably live such trivialized lives themselves. Its a testament to how much Pitchers appeals to our melodramatic and over sentimentalized, puppy love generation that there is not one bad rating in IMDb for this. The only other time such unanimous applause was seen in the annals of an Indian work of "ärt", it was Gunda, a timeless favorite of all engineers. TVF has got together a singular bunch of urban bards spinning yarns of meticulous nonsense quite in tune with the culture around. So no blame to them. But to applaud a miserable bunch of peter pans with their "unique" problems of work life and bubbling with easy platitudes at every step is an insult to the whole paradigm of praise itself. Dudes, you can get all your funding and set up your companies but life is infinitely tougher and the real problems of your code-driven existence are still a deteriorating marital and sex life, a loss of morals and the emptiness of modern distractions, one of which is shows like yours. If you really want to be the voice of the generation as you never shy of boasting, read some literature (assuming you have patience), try getting inside the hearts of men and women and figure out whats ails your generation so much.The engineer is a symbol of the vacuity of modern life and exalting him to the status of a modern mythical figure as you're trying is not just stupid, its saddening.
