So aside from execution, what's the difference between the portrayal of Zuck in TSN and that of Gates in Pirates of Silicon Valley? Both characters come off as more interesting and in a weird way, likeable than their real-world counterparts. Even Jobs is far more charismatic in PoSV than in real life. PoSV came out when Microsoft was in its prime and its portrayal of Gates was in many ways similar to that of Zuck in TSN, but it didn't seem to hurt him any.
