i loved the pilot. i watched it twice.
i want to say mackenzie davis was easily my favorite, but lee pace was right up there with her. their chemistry is off the charts. too bad cameron can't give joe more credit for orchestrating this project. then again, it's totally refreshing that she calls him out on what she perceives is bs. i just don't know if i'll care enough about the computer stuff to keep me interested in watching... |

And I still crack up every time I think about Bosworth welcoming Cameron to the leakiest lifeboat anyone ever tried to paddle to shore in. Quote:

And I hope even though you're going to try to stay away from too many spoilers that you'll keep posting here. It's great to have someone to discuss the show with! My family and friends are bored of hearing me gush about it. Quote:
I just saw this MD interview posted on Twitter where she does talk about how the show's characters are wrong to think that computers spreading information will be an inherently good thing. So maybe that will come up in the show. Quote:

i feel horrible for bossworth, but i almost laughed at him threatening joe. i mean, i know it's too early on to call what any character is capable of, but still. i think my favorite scene, oddly enough, was gordon unloading the ibm computer from his trunk. he just looked like someone who was ready to roll with joe! Quote:
that moment and her pausing while staring at the secretary were great for her character's growth, yes. i'm glad she's not ALL bad ass. Quote:

thanks for the link! i read the whole interview. i love how she talks about how, even in 2014, there are only two women coders. how preposterous! Quote:

Ahhh, someone finally put up the "this season" promo that ran after the premiere. There are a few new clips that look interesting:
There's also a new interview with the creators of the opening title sequence. Not much in the way of spoilers , but it's interesting how much thought went into it: Halt and Catch Fire (2014) — Art of the Title And here are two LP interviews: Interview: Lee Pace on Halt and Catch Fire and Guardians of the Galaxy https://tv.yahoo.com/blogs/tv-news/l...184455843.html A new SM interview, and a joint-interview with SM and KB: Interview: Scoot McNairy on Halt and Catch Fire Exclusive Interview: Scoot McNairy and Kerry Bishe on Halt and Catch Fire Finally, here's an interview with one of the technical advisors on the series. Some slightly spoiler-y information that still doesn't give too much away: Quote:

There's also a really quick scene in the 102 promo of Cameron at the mall being followed/chased by several men in suits. Maybe she shoplifts? Quote:

It is so rare for me to watch the pilot of a series over and over like this. I'll be crushed if the ratings don't improve next week. Quote:
Quote:
I'm also excited by the quick scene in the promo where Joe tells Bosworth that they're being "raided." Does that mean a corporate raid? Or that IBM and/or the government is sending someone to seize their files? And how/why would Joe know they're being raided before Bosworth does? Quote:

Episode stills from 102 are up!
Halt and Catch Fire - Episode 1.02 - FUD - Promotional Photos | Spoilers The brunette having a stare-down with Cameron is Debbie, a new character who, according to IMDB, will be in eight episodes this season. If that's true, it sounds like we'll be seeing a lot of her. Maybe she'll be a foil to Cameron, if the episode still is any indication. Joe's suits and ties are helpful for forming an idea of the timeline. I took a guess that the whole Cameron-kneeling-in-front-of-Joe scene was going to be next episode, but these stills confirm it. I'm not actively shipping him and Cameron together yet, but I bet that scene will be hot. Can't help but notice that there are no episode stills of the parking lot fight. Hurry up, Sunday! Also, the AMC site has character bios that hint at future storylines...some of this we pretty much already know, but I liked reading them nonetheless: Joe: Quote:
Gordon: Quote:
Cameron: Quote:
And sleeping at the office? I guess it could mean she just falls asleep during the workday, but one of the promos has a short clip of her alone in the darkened Cardiff office with no one around, so I'm thinking she might actually live there. Wow. Donna: Quote:

What I can't figure out is why he lied in the first place. I can think of three reasons: 1. He thought Donna would be jealous in a romantic sense. This is a pretty huge leap, because Donna doesn't strike me as someone who would be worried about her husband cheating. Unless, of course, it happened in the past? 2. He thought Donna would be jealous in a professional sense, that another woman is getting this opportunity in a field dominated by men while Donna's job at TI isn't all that exciting in comparison. 3. He personally feels threatened by or at the very least unsettled by the fact that Cameron is a woman who is smart, aggressive, and attractive. The thing is, I can't really point to any one of those and say that it's right and the others are wrong. But I like that the show made me think about it, rather than just telling me. Quote:

It's funny how his first scene with Joe in the pilot made him seem like the villain Joe will stomp on while we cheer -- and now he looks totally sympathetic. In the space of one episode. How often does that kind of thing happen? But actually, I still agree with your original point that Bosworth poses a threat to Joe -- I just meant that I think it's an emotional threat...that Bosworth is capable of doing exactly what he said, going through Joe's closets and finding the demons there. Because what these two episodes have shown is that Joe is a pretty messed-up individual who is trying desperately to hide that fact from everyone else. If Bosworth wants/needs a way to regain control of the company, he can take advantage of that. Quote:

Which part of it being a lie depressed you -- that we didn't get the real story in the parking lot after all, or that the story he told wasn't true? I kind of figured or was hoping that it was a lie when he was telling it, because something about it seemed off -- that boys would chase him off the roof because he didn't like football. Then I got little chills in that last scene when Cameron confronted him and he just kind of sat back and was like, "Is that so?" Perfect place to end the episode. In one of the reviews I read, the reviewer didn't think Joe's emotion was a lie, even if the story was. I think I agree with that, but I was recently burned by another show where the main character had a big crying scene (also while telling a lie) and I bought that the emotion was real/raw/painful only for the show-runner to come out later and say the character faked the crying/emotion. So I'm not the best judge. I can see it going either way. Side note: I love the lawyer, Barry. I hope the IMDB credits are right that we'll be seeing more of him. __________________
