Name of the series is Silicon Valley. The theme of this series is comedy, because it has a serious topic inside the story. 

Silicon Valley is an American series, talks about a young programmer named Richard who had made a software program named Pied Piper. He made an algorithm that could increase a cellphone's performance. In a very first time he and his friends joined a competition named TechCrunch Disrupt which was the biggest technology competition in US. Before he won the competition, his friends humiliated his team by beating up the other competitors and he felt that his algorithm could not defeat the other competitors' algorithm. After that situation happened, Richard focused on the increasing of the algorithm performance so that his application could be better than before. After he updated his application he could  finally be confident to join the competition and in the end he won the competition. After the competition,  a lot of investors wanted to buy his company (Pied Piper) and he was so excited about it. But in the end the investors wasn't really sure about giving him enough stocks for his company because the application wasn't good for the consumers just because his application was too difficult and hard to understand for them. That's why the investors denied to give him stocks. He and his team got bankrupted and months after that they did not make any more applications because they had no money. 

Coda: because his algorithm is too complicated for the application the consumers cannot use the application well, that's why sometimes it's bad to be perfectionist. And do not choose the difficult path rather than the easy path

The serious topic of this series is don't give your effort too much that will be failed in the end.
