If there is a season 2 I don't think I will watch it unless it gets some super acclaim. I think the story that could have been told, was.
Heyyyy the whole series is up for free again, on AMC's site! Yay. 23 days to check it out.
I'm almost positive this is AMC giving the show a final shot before canning it. Re-watch it and get your friends to watch it. The numbers have been so poor, but chances are, this is them testing if binge-watching will bring numbers up. Depending on how this goes, as well as the numbers for The Killing's new season on Netflix, we may get Season 2 released on Netflix too.
I agree. He's already run the gamut and I can't see where else they can possibly take him. Having Joe off on his own little side story while all the other characters are off doing computer stuff doesn't seem like a good idea to me unless Joe can come out the other side as a totally changed man. And even then, no one is going to let him back into Cardiff and I doubt Cameron will let him join Mutiny. So what else is left for him?
I'd be really curious to know what the writers have planned for him, even if the show doesn't get renewed.
This is a show about invention, experimentation, and the inherent risks in trying to break new ground themes that really resonate with us as a network and attracted a passionate audience, said Charlie Collier, AMC president today. We have a history of demonstrating patience through the early seasons of new shows, betting on talent and building audience over time. We see that opportunity here and look forward to a second season of Halt and Catch Fire from creators Chris Cantwell and Chris Rogers, and showrunner Jonathan Lisco.

I just got around watching the last episode, and I'm not going to stick around for season 2. There are things to like about the show but Joe is just an awful person and I find nothing compelling about his character. His motivations for any of his actions are lost on me. Every other character I get, Joe is just chaos for no good reason.

Still thinking about checking this show out. Is Joe a Don Draper type of character? I'm reaaally sick of those.
I'm almost certain that AMC regretted not renewing Rubicon. Especially with how most of their new shows turned out.
Yes. It's even worse because in interviews they try to pretend like they're going for something special when it's really just gay Don.Still thinking about checking this show out. Is Joe a Don Draper type of character? I'm reaaally sick of those.

Ratsky! Where you at?
It was higher in live ratings, but what got that show the axe was how much of a drop it had. It debuted with over 2 million viewsers, but the finale only had less than 700k viewers. And that's with a lead of Breaking Bad, which was getting the highest ratings it ever had.I'm not shocked about this but wasn't Low Winter Sun ratings even lower than Halt and Turn?
Not all shows.We have a history of demonstrating patience through the early seasons of new shows
I actually would have liked a second season of that show. I liked Frank's character.I'm not shocked about this but wasn't Low Winter Sun ratings even lower than Halt and Turn?

I thought Rubicon didn't get a second season, either.All but one.

Still, Frank started to grow on me towards the end. He was just in a shit situation,I like how he became unhinged.and then after we learn that he had issues with his wife, it started to make sense.

My stomach dropped when I saw the topic bumped to the front page, was not expecting good news!
edit: what a weird fucking gif.
This is sweet news I love this show, can't wait to see where it goes next. AMC is probably thinking that they don't want to let go of the awesome high-profile cast and think its worth another go.
