Its one of the coolest TV series ever produced. Just love watching it. Keep it up guys..!! Its something i look forward to watch after my tiring day. It provides you with great fun and entertainment along with a crisp of events. A must watch for today's tech generation. It looks to be promising with excellent performances by its actors Very good directing skills to make it look authenticating and compare with day to day life. Naveen, Jitu, Yogi and Mandal ensure they don't make it look an over the top series. Hats off to TVF for coming up with such an interesting topic and projecting this concept as many people, especially Indian individual , are opting for this future and making it big. Well Done..Keep it up..

Inspiring and entertaining at the same time!
shashankapr24 August 2015
This is one of those rare things which relaxes a part of you by its entertainment (rather sensible, no nonsense entertainment) and awakens one part of you to think about what you are actually doing with your own life. Its funny, its serious, its inspiring, its REAL, its a 100 more things I can't describe. Personally, what I like most is the respect with which TVF Pitchers treats its audience. When I watch this series I feel good when they present such intelligent comedy and so REAL story line. Thank you TVF for NOT insulting your audience like Mainstream serials in India do and for NOT treating them as idiots who can not understand anything as Mainstream movies in India do. Keep it Up!!! And yes, please bring the finale episode soon man!:)
Must watch for everybody

Excellent attempt by TVF to capture the real life of IT professionals in India who are aspiring for startups. Direction is awesome and performances by all the actors do not make it boring experience.
Frustration of IT employee is captured well and TVF team has made considerable efforts in making this a very authentic experience. Its treat for eyes and ears.
I would love to watch this series and I am eagerly waiting for next episode. I would love to have such new plots coming even on television in India on youth channels like Bindaas or MTV etc.
Thank you TVF for wonderful experience.

Brilliant show, excellent performances
apoorvaankur3 August 2015
I will try to keep it short:
1. Excellent dialogues- Well written and dialogues that are relevant to the audience go a long way in making this an excellent show.
2. Acting- Everyone excels in their roles. TVF has come a long way and this is a sleek product with top-notch performance (hat tip to Jeetu for his scenes with his father).
3. TVF- The hype surrounding TVF and their TV shows (a highly recommended "Permanent Roommates" included) is completely justified. Just like the character "Naveen Bansal" says about being fearless as a kid, TVF is just that even now and we as audiences benefit from that.
4. Entertainment- It is very easy to get preachy while dealing with subjects such as entrepreneurship (and end up being documentary like in tone) but TVF is true to its promise of delivering quality entertainment that is laced with acidic yet witty commentary about the malaise and issues surrounding entrepreneurship.
5. Production Value- The show looks very polished and the hard work TVF has put into making the show look absolutely realistic shows.

Absolute Magic
namanbanaudha3 August 2015
I think to cut a long story short, India has the capability of making this kind of Serial, Fantastic Story line, Naveen Bansal Speech in 4th episode truly breath taking, Jitu and his dad add spark and at the same time that how much a child still cares of his father, yogi brilliant Comic timing!! A Must watch for all professionals.And not to forget the IIM guy Mandal, who looks so innocent and at the same time acting a backbone of for the whole team. One things that this serial has set apart that it has covered every genre that IT professional goes through from his college days to Career, they give themselves motivation to strive for the . Hats off to the Screenplay, each character has been portrait to absolute certainty. Way to go TVF, you guys are doing a magnificent job :)
Inspiring and Real...!!!
bisalsinghnayal6 August 2015
I have been a follower of TVF since their "Permanent roommates" series. You guys are nailing it down one by one...!!!. The best thing, majority of the Indian population is able to relate themselves to your series :). Many guys do wanna take the leap of faith with startups but they are afraid. Hope your series inspires us so that this fear of failure can be crushed.
Acting: 10/10 Casting: 10/10 Editing: 10/10 Background score: 10/10 Dialogues: 7/10 (You could have kept it little less abusive :(, I wanted to show this series to older generations in my family who still think jobs in MNC and govt. jobs is what the Indian dream is. They are still not aware of the startup culture)
Do share the background music/songs please. Please keep this series alive for a long time like the 2-3 seasons.

Pioneer of webseries culture in India, set a great example
pal-gandharv26 December 2022
Believe me, they started from where they left off in season 1. Probably the pioneer of webseries this has been but believe me that the team behind Pitchers has done a lot of homework to cover all the intricacies of startups. From beer to whiskey now, from the idea of a startup to running that startup now, these guys seem to reach a next level. Missing Jeetu for obvious reasons as he brings the desi pana of coders which I personally co-relate to. Baap of all Indian webseries. Claiming it confidently. With more than 7 or 8 years gap, they came with a nuclear bomb that isnt just gonna shake the new India but revolutionize the webseries department once again. All minds of TVF have come to one place and that is, Pitchers. A must must watch. 9.5/10. I can proudly say that this Indian silicon valley is way better than America's. And they have done it without Jeetu. Woh aayega to bhuchaal aa jayega kasam se. Wont give spoilers.
"Entrepreneurs"- "Indian men at Work"-Kudos People. Tour-de- force
ajit210630 August 2015
"Pitchers"- An inventive script, impeccable screenplay, true-to-life characters, splendid acting and humor at its best.
Arnuabh Kumar started "The Viral Fever" on YouTube when he got rejected from MTV because their show was too intellectual. Now here he is, with "Pitchers", which is intellectual.
Some IIT guys with a penchant for filmmaking started making small videos, and now they have reached a level where we can proudly say that they are encouraging everyone. Their satires on the social issues, politics, and everything bad in our country is commendable.
"Pitchers" have taken the creativity to a whole new level, lovable characters and immaculate writing are the souls of it.
Gives the feel of "Entourage".
Kudos people, Keep it up.

I am not sure if calling it amazing will be sufficient
lokesh_mogra12 August 2015
Comic, Its so casual and real. Brilliant actors. The entire is so very Inspiring. I must have watched it what some 25 times each episode. Brilliant Job TVF, "Yogi" u are a comic master man, hast off. Naveens jury room explanation and the speech, was awesome. But the thing that makes me love it are the detailing. like brining the real startup founders to act in it, the bechdel test. The Box8 thing, u know when i opened Box8 site for curosity it was crawling for 5 minutes. Gary in his short stint was brilliant too. Mandal and Jitu are also amazing. And cherry on the cap was the entry of Biswapati Sarkar. I am a die hard fan of his comic timing, i love the chai-sutta cronicles. Waiting for the next episodes to come.
Refreshing new show!
sjcrap3 July 2015
TVF Pitchers is an audacious attempt by TVF to make a sensible TV show in India. The theme of the story is one which majority of the IT and young people will relate to.
The main difference about this show is its improved direction, better storyline, original music(No constant irritating background music) and decent dialogs. Also the actors fit the role and their acting is satisfactory. The storyline is interesting, comical and also realistic which is a rare find in the Indian television industry.
The show however sometimes losses its focus and tries to overdo a little. Despite its little imperfections the series has begun well and is something I would definitely continue watching.
Kudos to the makers for a daring attempt.

aditya-kaul-ak9 July 2015
i've been following TVF since quite long...they have always managed to come up with unique concepts and sketches, unlike qtiyapa, tech convo wid dad, permanent roommates, this is more intense and quite evolving one...each character is so well developed that it has that 'factor' that makes u think about the possibilities and again make u, as a viewer, relate with one's life...I wish u guys all the very best n yes, to the '#qutiyaguy...aka arunabh...i too wish to see this series on par or better than entourage...kudos guys!!!...n bisso..aka...biswapati sarkar...some one will definitely mention u as his/her inspiration for their start up!!! :)
Expected pure gold, came out with a diamond
partholas4 November 2015
Everyone told me to watch this series. Being a 17 year old boy in a world of innovations and start ups, for a few weeks, this was the talk of the town. This is the first time i watched an Indian TV series, and it is brilliant.
The dialogues and jokes are simply perfect. Naveen and his friends represent the entire youth of India and we can connect to them perfectly.
The storyline and jokes seemed to get better and better as the series progressed. Rocksolid critics might point out mistakes in the directing and acting, but the jovial mood created by the actors just steals the show. It's not only amusing, but also very inspiring. What is entrepreneurship? This question is answered in a very different way through this show.
Keep it up!
Can't wait for season 2 to come out

Highly Overrated series
mayasara5 September 2015
The show is nothing but a average TV series which is overrated by the TVF fans. I was just checking a good TV series to watch when i found this title at #32 above the #33 death note. I read some reviews and believe me almost all are written by TVF fans just to make into this list. I saw many TVF videos on youtube and they are fun to watch. The acting is good but you can not compare the acting with the professional actors. I don't want to put spoilers in the review so i am not writing about the show.The engineers will like this web-series for sure but i am pretty sure a normal people will rate this as a average series. the rating of this show is above the awesome series like "#39friends" , "#33 Death note" which is not at all comparable. ***apology for bad English***
Season 2 feels like forced
sudeep_ks25 December 2022
In Season 2 this feels like the founder is just talking in air and giving quotes... absolutely no idea about the tech stack and Not sure what is his contribution...
He just wants to make it big.. He is whiskey and he gets breaks... this is so not right at so many levels...
The basic thing wrong about this is the audience has absolutely no idea * what is the product what they are pivoting * who is this prachi lady and how did she "become the founder's friend" *An entrepreneurs journey without knowing tech and just talking dialogues * With Lucky breaks and Angels in the investing world All this is so forced and looks like a forced merger of Silicon valley and Indian drama.

Fantastic show by tvf team
sunilcool-1329323 December 2022
Just finished watching season 2. And I must say the show had roller coaster of emotions which a founder go through during his struggle days. The chemistry between all the characters is still intact like seasons 1. Missed seeing jeetu in season 2. Great work from the creators. Thanks for making season 2. Naveen, mandal and Yogi rocked life before in the show. Lot of entrepreneurial lessons in same show. How much sacrifices and cost it needs to build owns dream. Everyone in the show deserves a great thanks who acted, supported and directed. Hope to see more seasons coming in future. It would recommend this show to everyone.
very refreshing
omnipresent-4265731 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
we love anything from TVF. we have been following from the very beginning . The actors ,the reality connection to every youth in India. The IT life, frustrated young generation to find their passion but yet connected to the roots of Indian cutler the father son relation, arranged marriage working out are shown well. The general Indian men thinking of wife not getting the job my husband has been showing the TVF videos to all the guest. Even friends as if we are the brand ambassador's of the show. good direction. good story and characterization. The final episode was too good. The college students acting was little unnatural though.
Watched after 6 years of release.. I wonder why..Awesome
devdenim23 April 2021
Do yourself a favour .. watch this and appreciate true "Content". Then watch Kota Factory. Then wonder why you were not aware of TVF's free web series on YouTube. Then you will remember that you were off loaded with garbage from KJo Salman and entire Bollywood. Their marketing was so strong that these small timers tvf were lost somewhere.. even with 80 lakhs subscribers till date.
Watch it.
Watch it.
Simply fantabulous!
The_binge_watcher23 December 2022
Binge watched season 2! Phenomenal phenomenal show! When the 1st season of a show is really good, it's really hard to match the standards in season 2 and TVF have managed to uphold the standards set by season 1 and how!
While the first season has a bit of comedy in it, the second show is very serious as it should be considering the way the story progresses. The unexpected twist at the very end is just the cherry on top of the cake.
One of the best shows I've ever watched! One of the best shows ever made period! Exceptional acting, exceptional screenplay, exceptional story arc, exceptional character development, exceptional everything!
Hats off to TVF and team!

Magic Does Happen
anu19630 August 2015
Well, if you ask someone what is the most happening series nowadays, TVF Pitchers would be the answer!First came TV series which revolutionized the watching behavior of people and now it is web series. TVF Pitchers appeals to the present generation. You relate to the day to day life of the characters. It reminds you of someone you know- in your office, colony, college. There is no over doing, it is realistic and the characters- I must say have been superbly portrayed!!
Naveen, Yogi, Jitu, Mandal.... They give inspirations at times!!
A superb series. Well written and perfectly executed... Will be waiting eagerly for the next season!

"Tu Beer H BC!!!"
arpitrathore7 September 2015
Its the Best Online Video Series i have ever seen which is "MADE IN India".I Loved each and every moment of this series...The start they took was the best moment of the series for me..."Tu Beer H BC!!!" And after that Mandal was really awesome. first it looked like he is nothing but in the end he became very crucial part...Every Actor did awesome acting which was damn natural in feel than many other actors who does Shti in place of acting... The Whole story feels real like it is happening in real world...Hats off to the Screenplay, each character has been portrait to absolute certainty. Way to go TVF, you guys are doing a magnificent job :)
Interesting and Splendid one
swagato-6115128 December 2022
This is my second series I am watching of TVF. 'Pitchers'. Will always remember and loved the dialogue, "We are not Entrepreneurs, We are Pitchers"... Must say, TVF have always kept their productions on a different level than other programs. Thanks to my friend for suggesting me to watch this lovely series. Season 3 must be released.
I recommend everyone to watch 'Pitchers'. Seriously it will take you to whole new paradigm of fraternity and emotion. Loved such True-to-life characters and each and everyone have out-performed themselves. The series will show what a perfect team-work is. Tons of Love and Thanks to 'The Viral Fever' team for making such a splendid series.

A plot which is consciously written , felt many time Real some times a Drama
nimeshmakwana16 August 2015
A great experience by TVF , I am wondered that such a cool series does exist in India. Sometimes I compare it with Breaking Bad (with script quality and content) , sometimes with silicon valley ( with the plot ).
Thanks buddy for this wonderful creation. Arunabh great work.
There's been a very small part of the series which made me felt like its not real and its a drama ( in 4th one : bulb jalega boss ) , otherwise its beautifully created to make a great impact on audience.
Leo Tolstoy once said " A bird never flew on one wing ". You all are heroes of Pitchers.
There could be more studies need to be done for all up coming episodes.
Like in Breaking Bad you can see that they approached a Chemical Science Professor to have better understanding of dialogue deliveries.
Titles need to be rock solid (not to be filmy) to have a better impact on viewers.
So far it has made such impression that people eagerly waiting for next episode and seasons.
All the best guys.

Ingenious, brilliant and mind-boggling stuff
rahulbhat-015417 March 2017
This is the best Indian TV series ever produced with so much of original concept depicting the real life and its endeavours in funding and starting a startup, such a brilliantly written show with such wonderful dialogues. There is no other show in India like this present in the current scenario. I will put this show on par with all the HBO shows and maybe better than them considering the amount of financial freedom HBO and other big production houses had to produce their shows and the financial limitations of a small time TVF production house, they have done a hell of a job in producing a wonderful show like this. Hats Off..
Season 2 of TVF Pitchers is awesome series.
himamlai26 December 2022
Arunabh kumar is a genius. The real world of start-up has been shown in a crystal clear way. I had tears in my eyes while seeing these episodes. I also loved the role of Mandal. He is definitely one of the most important pillar of team Pragati. Naveen has also justified his role in a very realistic way. Special kudos to Bhati Saab, Is there any role which you cannot play? He did a fantastic job. All the TVF team is doing a great job in OTT industry. I wish you good luck. Keep up the good work, I will keep watching all of your shows for sure. You guys are the future of Indian cinema. Congratulations!
