I also found Betas a lot better in regards to reality. But also like them about equally, for different reasons.
I find SV to be mostly taking the piss out of the startup scene (through exaggerations on reality), much like the big bang theory does for general geeky people. Where Betas on the other hand is more like an entertaining story about the realistic seeming trials and tribulations a startup could face.

Try Betas, I thought it was much more entertaining and closer to the dream (Reality always sucks)-

100% agree. Plus the characters are actually likable.
I thought the characters in Betas were terrible. With the exception of the bearded dude, the rest are horrible.
Silicon Valley doesn't seem like it'll be realistic but the acting and writing quality is way way higher.
