In the first round of our TV Madness article series, one of the biggest upsets came via “Halt and Catch Fire,” which we labeled a #8 seed, being able to dethrone #1 seed “The Walking Dead.” It was the only time in which a #1 or #2 seed was throttled in the opening round, and […]
It’s not often that we get a chance to talk about “Halt and Catch Fire” during the off-season, so when you do you better think we’re going to take advantage of it almost every chance that we can. This brings us to the excellent news that we have today via show executive producer Christopher C. […]
For today’s edition of our TV Madness tournament, we’re looking at two shows that air on the same network in AMC, but in many ways really could not be more different from one another. You’ve got a show in “The Walking Dead” that is a ratings juggernaut, and then one in “Halt and Catch Fire” […]
It has been quite a long time since we’ve written about AMC’s “Halt and Catch Fire,” but there is a perfectly good reason for that. The show has not been air since the summer, and in comparison to some other series on TV, it’s not one to routinely receive a lot of coverage during the […]
Pretty much any time that we have done a Best Actor / Top Actor poll at CarterMatt in the past three years that we’ve been doing our “Best of” series, they have proven to be some of the most competitive ones we’ve done. There’s a lot of passion that goes into making these performances, and […]
We’ve spent the past few days in our CarterMatt Awards article series tributing some of the unheralded stars in the world of our favorite medium, and that has been a particularly fun collection to work on. Now, we’re moving into a little more of a traditional Top Actor category, which is something that we have done on […]
On December 10, the nominees for the 2016 Golden Globes are going to by announced by the Hollywood Foreign Press, and the buildup to this show, other than the Emmys, is maybe our favorite of the year. Sometimes, we even prefer the Globes since they tend to be more open to recognizing shows that are […]
A funny thing happened during Sunday night’s episode of “The Leftovers,” and it is something that is rare after spending years watching a very large percentage of relevant TV programming: Tears, and not just the season 1 variety where they came because the show pretty much forced them on us. There were moments of beauty in seeing […]
File this under “favorite news of the day.” We have a hard time thinking that anything is going to top it. Following some stellar reviews for the show’s second season (it was worth every one of them), AMC has officially renewed “Halt and Catch Fire” for a third season airing next summer. The ratings have […]
While we personally would be a big advocate for getting to see more of “Halt and Catch Fire” on AMC, we worry already that this is going to be just another Lee Pace show destined to go off of the air after a pair of seasons. The ratings have come in now for the season […]
