Joe :what:

I mean, dude was always a weird and moody motherfukker so what he did matches his personality. But still :dahell: no development for his character is kinda wack.

Really liked Gordon realizing he ain't much without other people giving him ideas to work and build with. I think a Mutinty+Cardiff partnership (or at least a proposal) is bound to happen next season...if there is one :patrice:

Cameron is a complete bytch for what she said to Joe, cot dam.

This show felt all over the place but it can still be a great show. I mean shyt if The Killing can get 3 seasons I don't see why this show can't.

This show is a lot like The Cardiff Giant. It's solid and gets the job done but the creators own fear stripped it of any originality that would make it truly stand out. Each episode has some great conversations between smart adults and it's as if the writers thought, "What if someone gets bored? Quick, have somebody throw something across the room! Have the main guy set a truck on fire! Have him make out with a rich old woman's beard! Let's throw in crazy twists, change camera angles every two seconds during a conversation for no reason at all and just in case people with ADD don't like hearing about computers -- let's add some melodrama!" If they would've taken a page out of Mad Men, or The Wire and paced the show like a slow burn it would've been better. You can tell the writers are smart people who have some good ideas, but they sabotaged their own TV show by trying to cater to the lowest common denominator in every episode. I really liked the pilot(that scene when IBM's lawyers show up is one of my favorites from this year) and the season was okay but it could've been a LOT better IMHO.

:rip: no way this gets renewed.

last episode was wack, they should have just ended it last week. they could have had a decent little show here if they had come up with a better character than joe.

Only 574,000 people watched the finale. :rip:

I like the show, it got better as the season progressed. But if AMC cancelled Low Winter Sun, these ratings won't help Halt & Catch Fire. Something about Joe's character irks me. But he does work well when the story focused on conflict between Joe and Gordon or Cameron. If they do a season 2 they have to work on Joe's character.

Agreed. The last episode was terrible and killed all the momentum.

Ray Donovan and suits will have to hold me down
