From AMC, Halt and Catch Fire captures the rise of the PC era in the early 1980s, during which an unlikely trio — a visionary, an engineer and a prodigy — take personal and professional risks in the race to build a computer that will change the world as they know it.
While charting the changing culture of Texas' Silicon Prairie, tensions build within the group as they attempt to navigate the thin line between visionary and fraud, genius and delusion, and as their drive to do something that matters runs up against their ability to truly innovate.

[SPOILER](#s "spoiler goes here")

A spoiler is any piece of information that reveals a plot or character detail that ruins the element of dramatic tension. Knowing a character will die, for example, removes any tension/suspense from that character's arc because you know where it all ends up.
When in doubt: keep it vague and make people click.

I've been searching for some cool merch/shirts, but haven't found anything to my liking, so I started looking for high-res images that I might be able to use to make my own custom print and I ended up finding these nice libraries. These are probably not technically high-resolution, but they are decent-good size/resolution and quality -- should be good enough for a decent quality small-medium sized print. Many of the images look like they were probably AI-upscaled. Quite a few options that I think that can be adapted nicely for shirt prints.
Anyone else just love how the show looks?
When i watch Netflix, Apple TV+, or Disney+ MCU shows for example, most of the shows seem to be visually crafted like every other show on the said platform. (Although all 3 platforms have their own distinctive look and feel)
^ Maybe this is why I love how the show is shot and color graded...anyone with me?
Just started s3 and i can't, just can't bare to see them on my screen, cameron is annoying and a terrible person in general but donna just soured the series for me after she extorted gordon just to keep their marriage on (im not giving gordon a pass on cheating)
Saw an ad on reddit and noticed this particular fellow looks a lot like Gordon.
At the start of S4E2 when Joe is talking to Cam over the phone and telling her the story of the song being played by an ice cream truck while a woman is being attacked by bees and eventually Joe asks if Cam is still there and stays on the line.....
The music that's playing during that scene, is that part of the released soundtrack??
You know how Cam wants to name it Lovelace after Ada Lovelace? Turns out she's Lord Byron's daughter. Always has been.
I’m revisiting this brilliant show and have never gotten this far in. I’ve watched the first season a few times but never got to see how ridiculously annoying Cameron becomes. Mackenzie Davis does a phenomenal job playing the role, but the redundancy of her childish selfish crybaby bullshit is on the writers. When she quits and Gordon gave 49% to Joe. That should have been it. I’m gotta finish watching. But…Cameron is like the worst character in any show. Lmao
Y'all, I'm not ok right now.
Just saw Gordon's death scene. How beautiful and breathtaking it was.
Goddamn.
This is the episode that completely broke me. I have done countless rewatches of the series but every time this episode brings me to tears.
Instead of just saying "nobody wants this", why didn't Joe think of selling Cameron's OS and the memory upgrade as an optional addon kit for power users? It would've been a compromise that could've kept Cameron on board and blown even more balls off the numbers.
Bundles and upgrades were extremely common back then, you'd have systems having optional bundles with an extra disk drive or hard drive and a dozen other things with their machines, why did they close that door on the Giant?
How nearly everyone treated/exiled Joe, and how that damn champagne bottle at the end of episode 9 season 3 sounded when they sat it on the ledge.
Drives me up a wall. Why does it sound like its being sat on a wood table, its a concrete ledge. Reeeeeee
