Mike Judge knows how to portray culture.

Every thing he creates, including his satire, is so accurate.

As someone growing up in a small Texas town, KOTH is right on the money.

As someone in the software industry, Silicon Valley is right on the money.

..and don't forget Office Space. He has savant-like abilities to observe and reflect personalities and society. True genius, and much under-appreciated.

I, too, grew up in Texas (in the 'metroplex') and really love his portrayal of it all. His insights and satire aren't hateful or spiteful; but rather more playful. KOTH made me more proud and happy to be a Texan, in fact.

Regarding Texas, this sounds kind of like the better work of Larry McMurtry. I loved 'Leaving Cheyenne.'
