There's a great program on TV called "Startup Junkies," which follows a Seattle startup called Earth Class Mail. There are high-fives. There are firings.

You can watch it for free at Hulu.com.

Most of the characters seem like they came out of central casting. I find the blazer-and-no-tie-wearing CEO fascinating -- and by my count he uses every single business cliche by the final episode. He's also really likable.

My favorite character is the PR woman. She gets really mad at a business editor who doesn't fawn over the new business and cattily types out a response. Classic.

Am I the only person in Richmond who has watched it?

I have not seen this show, but do refer to the early y2k documentary "Start-up dot com." This movie provides and interesting snapshot of the dotcom bubble, as well as the erosion of a lifelong friendship.
