HBO is pushing back the start of production on the sixth season of “Silicon Valley” in order to accommodate showrunner Alec Berg’s same responsibilities on “Barry.”
There is no word from HBO on when production on the new season of “Silicon Valley” will start, but TV Line reported it will likely be next summer, which could mean that the series may not return until 2020.
“As Alec Berg is a showrunner on both ‘Barry’ and ‘Silicon Valley,’ the schedule was structured to allow Alec to wrap on ‘Barry’ before starting work on ‘Silicon Valley,’” an HBO spokesperson said in a statement.
