Silicon Valley star Thomas Middleditch: I'm more famous as Verizon's pitchman

The Hollywood Reporter

"Not everybody has HBO," Middleditch tells The Hollywood Reporter. "But everybody watches (sports) and sees me during the commercials." Middleditch says he's learned to accept his fame as a cell phone carrier pitchman, even though it's "a little weird." As for Silicon Valley coming to an end, Middleditch says: "It’s nice that it’s not a situation where the show is being canceled. The story is coming to an end. That’s a very fortunate thing in the land of television. The story is finite and it always has been."
