T. J. Miller Says Leaving 'Silicon Valley' "Felt Like a Breakup"Sunday's season finale of Silicon Valley marked the end of the road for Erlich Bachman. The HBO comedy wrote out T. J. Miller's fan- favorite character in a rather unexpected and unceremonious fashion.

After going to China to meet up with Gavin Belson (Matt Ross), Erlich joins Gavin at an opium den in Tibet, where Erlich gets so high that he can barely function. So the ousted Hooli CEO pays the owner of the drug den a wad of cash to keep Erlich there for five years. And with that, Silicon Valley said goodbye to one of its most beloved characters. HBO first confirmed in May that Miller would not be coming back for the upcoming fifth season, writing in a statement that "the producers of Silicon Valley and T. J. Miller have mutually agreed that T. J. will not return for season five." The news left many wondering why there was a sudden parting, particularly since Erlich has been one of the show's biggest breakouts. In a separate interview with The Hollywood Reporter ahead of the season four finale, co- showrunner Mike Judge offered a bit more clarity on Miller's exit.

It was kind of becoming clear that he didn't want to do the show anymore, but we wanted to leave it so that there would be an opportunity to come back at some point, " Judge said, explaining that the writers purposely left Erlich's storyline open- ended in the finale. When the season was done, we talked to T. J. and said, 'Do you want to come back for part of it?' And he just wanted to move on."Judge added that the producers intended to give Miller an out if he wanted to take it. I think if somebody doesn't want to do it, you don't want to force them to. I certainly don't," said the executive producer, who also spoke with THR about the trajectory of the season and his six- season plan for the comedy. It also wouldn't make for a very good work environment."Now Miller is offering his side of the story. In a wide- ranging and, at times, eccentric interview (what else do you expect from Miller?), the actor reveals that HBO offered him a reduced role in the upcoming season, which he ultimately turned down in favor of leaving the show completely.

He gets candid about why he ultimately walked away from the series, on whether he'll return to Silicon Valley in the future and why exiting the comedy "felt like a breakup."How did you manage to leave the show mid- run? Didn't you have a contract that would keep you on the series? They came to me and said, "Look, we're not going to pick up your contingency because we want to offer you doing five episodes out of the 1. And then I said, "Oh perfect, I had been wanting to ask if you guys would be open to me leaving the show." And then they suddenly said, "Wait, no, what? You can do whatever. What? What do you mean?" And that was so good of them.

They said, "We just wanted you to have more time to do all of the things you're doing." And I said, "Well, the best way for me to be involved in the show is by no longer being on it." I swear to God, that's why the internet broke. Everybody was like, "What the f— are you talking about? You're on this successful show. Don't you want three more years of solid acting work and don't you want to be a famous television actor?" And I was like, "No, not really." I'd like to parasail into the Cannes Film Festival for The Emoji Movie because that's the next new funny thing that will make people laugh.

Why were the producers going to reduce your role in the first place? Because they had to move the production schedule around. That's how heavy- duty my schedule is. Even the most successful comedy next to Veep on HBO was like this thing that I had to — I'm doing stand- up and I come back and I didn't sleep at all. I was incredibly busy.

People joke about it but I'm the hardest- working man in show business, maybe. So they were like, "Let's make this easier for both of us." And I was like, "I think this is an amazing opportunity."Why was leaving Erlich in a Tibetan drug house the right ending for your character?

I just thought it was so funny. They'd written a potential exit — an organic exit — and I just thought it was so funny. I also think it's interesting to leave a comedy at its height, one that is known for being cyclical. Everybody sort of criticizes [that part of it].

The only thing that you can talk down about the show and about Alec Berg, the showrunner for the first couple years, is that it's cyclical. If they fail, then they succeed, and then if they succeed, they fail. It's over and over. That's an old type of sitcom. That's Seinfeld, where Alec Berg used to work. It's recycling, it's network.

This is HBO. And so I thought, what if suddenly the whole thing changed? Where's the guy at the house? He's gone. Richard [Thomas Middleditch] doesn't have a foil. Jian Yang [Jimmy O.

Yang] comes to prominence. All these other characters will change and grow. Return To Snowy River Movie Watch Online on this page.

I read something today that I thought was really sweet, which was that Erlich as a character never really belonged. I mean, really, think about that. You don't think Erlich belonged in the show? Yeah, nobody likes him. He doesn't have any friends. His only friend is Jian Yang, and Jian Yang f—ing hates him. I mean, he calls him a "fat loser." You don't say that to a friend.

Erlich is just the person nobody wants. There's no reason for him to be there. He's conned his way into the whole situation. And so I thought it would be really interesting if suddenly they were able to rid themselves of him. If they had truly had enough of him, which is what they're always saying, then why wouldn't he just exit?

What if they're really suddenly like, he's gone? Now what? Who does Richard have to complain about? Who is f—ing up their situation? Where is that confidence in the show? Where is that blowhard that everybody needs? Who is able to be negging without Thomas Middleditch being like, "I'll kill you, you little slut." So that all interested me, and most of all it made me laugh really hard. That was the impetus behind walking.

That's sort of the impetus behind everything I do: It just makes me laugh. It's not about money, it's not about any of that stuff. It's certainly not about fame, which is destructing my relationships with my family. It's about things that are interesting and funny.

That's what we need right now in a post- religious, post- meaning society. You mentioned your schedule is crazy. How much of it was about that? I was sick of telling my wife in earnest, "I'm going to slow down the schedule. We'll have more time to spend in New York." And even when I thought of leaving, she said, "Look, man, this is a character people love.

They feel like they're friends with him." And although that makes for a terrible time at the airport because everybody high- fives me, grabbing your ass on the way to your f—ing plane to Omaha, Nebraska, to do stand- up comedy — these people want to know, "Do you really want to walk from what many would say is the cushiest situation in television? The platinum age of television?" And I said, "Yeah, I think that would be really interesting." If you're going to be unsafe and unstable, then let's see what happens. If you wanted Erlich to be essential to the group, did you have any conversations with the showrunners, Mike Judge or Alec Berg, about possibly moving in that direction?

No, because that was the joke. He never was supposed to be present. I actually think the writing with Erlich gets funnier and funnier the more inessential and irrelevant he becomes. He's an annoyance.
