MUMBAI: Star World Premiere HD, the English entertainment channel that has pioneered the day and date movement in India is known for its promise of showcasing the latest shows on television.

The shows will premiere on 27 April at 10 pm and 10.30 pm respectively and will continue to air every Wednesday at the same time.
Featuring renowned comic genius Julia Louis-Dreyfus in the lead, hit TV series Veep follows her journey as the clueless vice-president Selina Meyer who leads a bizarre brigade of staff members. The show that depicts humanity, banality and absurdity that goes on in the life of Washington has evolved its storyline to the point where Meyer has stumbled her way into occupancy of the oval office as the president.

The series bagged the Primetime Emmy award for the best comedy series and reaped several other awards including four consecutive Emmy wins for Dreyfus.
On the other hand, only two seasons old, the Emmy award-winning series Silicon Valley has carved a niche for itself because of its comedic charm and tech-centric satire on the city by the bay where everyone has a tech start-up with world-changing ideas but only a few make it big. The top tier satire show is now all set to return for a third season with different personal and professional issues which the team at Pied Piper will have to face. Starring T.J.Miller, Kumail Nanjiani, Martin Starrand Zach Woods, season 3 of the show will also welcome veteran actor Stephen Tobolowsky as Jack Barker, the new CEO of Pied Piper. Jack Barker is a very successful and relatable CEO who has taken small companies public with not just successful IPOs but insanely successful IPOs. But is that too good to be true? After cameos by Snapchat co-founder and Dropbox CEO in the previous season, who will Silicon Valley bring this season?
