Silicon Valley, HBO’s half-hour comedy series about a bunch of nerds trying to change the world with code, is headed back to your television screen in April. HBO posted a trailer for the hotly anticipated Season 2 premiere on its Facebook page Friday to let everyone know.

Check it out below for a ton of slow-motion shots of all your favorite characters with the whole geeky gang back for another run.

You’ve got Richard, the smart yet socially awkward coder who came up with the original ideas for Pied Piper, the company the boys are now running. Then there’s Erlich, the wanna-be Steve Jobs who can barely fit in his mock turtleneck shirt. And Gilfoy and Dinesh, the quintessential guns for hire who could really give a crap about the product — they just want to be the cool kids. Then there’s Jared, the good-natured gopher guy who everyone ignores (at their own peril), and crazy venture capitalist Peter Gregory, who funds their startup but wants bizarre things in return.

It’s a great ensemble piece, and Season 1 hit all the right notes: the nervous coder/startup founder, the dudebro humor, the pot-smoking visionary with no coding skill, all the crazy parties and presentations that come with a ton of money and not very much common sense. Silicon Valley has it all, and we can’t wait to see where they go next.

The new season of Silicon Valley airs on HBO starting April 12.
