About to watch when I get home hopefully :smokin
 
I hear a few producers from Breaking Bad are involved. Plus they have it on following Mad Men, showing the desire to have this catch on. I'm interested.
 
Good first episode. Now I have to wait a whole 3 weeks for episode 2 :lol:

Interesting to see where they take this show
 
Real good first ep. Almost lost me in the beginning but I stood in there when they introduced the lost and desperate family man that was almost broken.

I watched it online.
 
So um what is this story based on? or is it strictly fictional? I never did ask or bother to look it up.

Is it loosely following ppl who did this or just a re-imagining of how we got where we are today?

Ray Donovan is about to start season 2. YOu on season 1 or you are skipping this Halt and Catch Fire until season 2 that hasn't started is over

This is a dope *** show though. AMC is killing the tele game
 
Man I really need to know if this is all fictional or based on a true story cuz at this point it seems they're about to fail epically :lol:

:lol: @ Bosworth taking the risk of robbing a bank :smh: All cuz they drank Joe's kool-aid

Damn that former boss was the ultimate heel.

I thought they dodged a bullet with her whorish ways and dude finding out. That was probably the worse way for it to be revealed.

:lol: @ this being the year Macintosh shuts everything down.
 
Show was slow in the beginning but it really picked up after 3-4 episodes. Love the intro.

I knew I was a fool for thinking things were going to go well for them at Comdex. Seeing the fired neighbor, and the boss from Ti was crazy. At the end when Joe saw the Macintosh reveal what happened then?

I can't figure out if he was more in awe of the fact that it could talk making it more personal than the OS Cameron developed. Or if he felt that they made a mistake by leaving out Cameron's software because it was the future of computing.
