About this show

Halt and Catch Fire is an intriguing, adrenaline-filled depiction of the American dream in the 80s and the dynamic people that made this era an unforgettable decade of rebellion and reinvention. It’s the story of three underdogs - a visionary, an engineer and a prodigy who overcome insurmountable odds and overthrow the corporate empires that ruled during the personal computer boom. Each of them unpredictable and ingenious, these three characters live in constant fear of being judged as frauds. With everything on the line, each of their second chances becomes their last. They happen to be standing at the forefront of something truly great and world–changing with the potential to send ripples across the globe.

Geeky and frustrating but ever enjoyable. The show does a balancing act between ruthless narcissistic boardroom politics; creating and overcoming engineering challenges; and adding deep personal trauma and personal growth to each character. The second season benefited from having stronger female roles but lacked the same voracious roller-coaster of the first season.

This TV show appears to show the story of how Compaq as a company formed. Anyone born around the 80's or into tech this is a must watch.
