Through most of “Halt and Catch Fire” season 2, we have seen multiple characters hang on by a thread. At the end of Sunday night’s season finale, that same thread was very close to snapping for a variety of different reasons. For Donna and Gordon, the moment really came when everything was finally revealed about […]
Did you really think that Joe MacMillan and Cameron Howe were going to take being played lying down? These are two people who have fancied themselves revolutionaries. Joe is a guy who burned down a truck full of computers just because he didn’t like what they became! Sunday night’s “Halt and Catch Fire” as a […]
Joe MacMillan has been known as a scoundrel to many on “Halt and Catch Fire,” and with that in mind it was very easy to attach one label to him Sunday night: Fall guy. Did you really think that Jacob Wheeler was going to be so willing to allow Joe to leave and the Mutiny deal fall […]

This is a business that brings to the table ambitious goals, but to a certain extent a lack of the business sense as to how to actually assemble them. Ultimately, […]
We have spent a heck of a lot of time tonight discussing the epic season 5 finale of “Game of Thrones,” but at the same time we do not want to close off the day before making one thing incredibly clear: “Halt and Catch Fire” aired an episode Sunday night that, while subtle, was equally […]
What remains fascinating about “Halt and Catch Fire” season 2 is what it is putting together right now when it comes to evolution.
