Halt and catch fire

I've been re watching on pluto tv and this show is really fricking good. Been so long don't remember everything but most
Any fans on here?
It's similar to Mad Men but set in the 80's Tech world in Texas and sadly far less known
Great cast(Lee Pace, Scoot McNairy, Mackenzie Davis, Kerry Bishe, Toby Huss),
Incredible character development and writing. Another cool thing each new season is a lot different than the last.
Great 80's music all throughout even love the opening credits song.

Yes. The show was severely underrated. Gets better each season. Love how they went through various stages of the tech industry in the 80s and in later seasons the 90s.

Excellent show. Last season dragged a little IMO.

I remember enjoying this show but also it didn’t hold my attention.
I’m somewhere in the middle of season 3 and just haven’t gotten around to finishing it

Big fan of this. Cast and soundtrack are the highlights. The production values around the Mutiny storyline were lacking IMO.

Wonderful show, the last season was some emotional stuff.

I was a fan when it came out then it ran out of steam. Wasn’t very good at the end. You could tell the writers were trying to come up with material to fill each episode.

Agreed with the last season faltering a bit. It was still enjoyable, but it felt like it had completely different showrunners than the previous seasons (maybe it did). Season 3 was kind of the same way, but overall still felt like the first 2 seasons.
But, yeah, it's one of the most underrated series that I can think of. I'll hear people talk IRL about some of the overlooked classics like Firefly and Freaks and Geeks, but never this one. I'll occasionally recommend it and get blank stares. The rare TD threads on the show only last a page or two. Not saying that it's one of the GOATS, but it's really good and should appeal to just about anyone.
And once I see a "Halt and Catch Fire aired closer to it's time setting than to today" meme, I'm probably just going to fly out to SF and jump off of a highrise.
