Halt and Catch Fire

Post by Shonky »

Surprised not to see this series mentioned here before. Just finished the second season and it's not bad, might be a bit nerdy for some people but it's got good ratings across the sites like IMDB and RT so I guess I'm not the only one who likes it. :yes:

The blurb.
Set in the 1980s, this series dramatizes the personal computing boom through the eyes of a visionary, an engineer and a prodigy whose innovations directly confront the corporate behemoths of the time. Their personal and professional partnership will be challenged by greed and ego while charting the changing culture in Texas' Silicon Prairie.

Same, S1 was OK but the Wife couldn't get into it which is probably why I haven't started S2 yet.

It is a great watch. The bride is surprised when I preempt some of the things that happen. Makes me feel old though.

S3 just finished a couple of weeks ago, just working through something else before I binge on this next.
