Halt and Catch Fire made the 100 Best Shows of the 21st Century.
This drama began in the early days of the personal computer evolution—before social media, before FOMO, before AI angst—to tell the story of a Quartet of tech pioneers, who looked at those clunky beige desktop boxes and saw kaleidoscopic future. Computers were “the thing that gets us to the thing,” the latter thing being connection, empowerment, even a new kind of art. What began as a familiar tail of business-suite intrigue—“mad men” with processors—became a rich, heartfelt, human exploration of the cost and rewards of work and the necessity of failure. Its portrait of 80s and 90s techno-optimism may seem quaint now, but its rendering of the love of creation remains bleeding-edge. —James Poniewozik
