Halt and Catch Fire: Season 2 / Reviews

The New York Times

It's loosened up a little, letting more humor into the mix, and that it's kept around one of those father figures: John Bosworth.

Paste

It has become the program that its early adapters always wished it would be.

Vulture

The first season was not so good, but the second season has really picked up.

The New Yorker

It's effective doing what it does best, which is to be a platform for a fascinating, buried period of history.

Time Magazine

Halt's software has been upgraded: it now has a compelling subject, the emergence, through modem clicks and whistles, of the wired Internet era we live in.

Variety

Four episodes in, the writers have taken steps to reconnect the key characters, but it's a too-slow update...

IGN

In the second season, Halt and Catch Fire unveiled its greatest strength; it's willingness to blow everything up.

RogerEbert.com

AMC's bafflingly underrated drama is one of the best programs ever at capturing the human fallibilities that go into into carving your own path in business and life...

NPR

It's obvious Halt And Catch Fire 2.0 is a serious improvement over last year's model.
