Halt & Catch Fire
But omfg, i want to slap *all* these people. Does the whining and the stupidity end after season one? Because omfg.
(And why does our lead actress *always* look like she's on the verge of tears? Arrgh.)

(Anonymous) 2016-08-22 10:02 am (UTC)(link)In any case, the second season is very different from the first in terms of dynamics and focus, which I really appreciated.
But hey, I'm glad to see anyone watching it at all! :D
Was there anything you actually liked so far?
Re: Halt & Catch Fire
I actually really, really like the *story*. I love that kind of 'we're doing something no one has done and by gods, we're going to *do it*!!' kind of thing. It reminded me a little bit of Mad Men (and Joe is a little bit like Don Draper).
I just *don't* like the main characters having temper tantrums like five year olds. Joe is always *pouting*, and his big, grand gestures are always undercut in about three seconds. And why does Cameron always seem on the verge of tears? She's supposed to be some kind of punk chick, all tough and independent.... Then of course, Gordon, who seems to not have the slightest bit of self-realization about just how *poorly* he handles people, but throws a tantrum when told 'no, i don't want you to attempt that again and screw us up. again.'
So they *frustrate* me. But i enjoy the story a lot, I like them when they're not being dumb-asses, and i could watch John and Donna all day (and I do like John's interactions with Cameron and the rest of the 'nerds', that's fun).
So, you know...i do enjoy quite a lot of it, but i could do with less whining and a lot less sex (however fun it is to have Joe be bi, i don't really need another Joe/Cameron sweaty sex scene).
