It is rare to find a series that one connects with on so many levels. It is rarer to completely fall in love with a series. Let me introduce you to Halt and Catch Fire. The world of the series is exciting: the birth of the tech revolution of the 1980s and 90s. But it is the characters that make this show what it is. The five main characters are all beautiful: flawed and imperfect, frustrating, inspiring and sometimes unlikeable. The dynamics between these people are breathtaking, and we ride the rollercoaster with them as they hit the inevitable peaks and valleys. These people are so accessible and it is impossible not to connect with each one. It is also impossible not to fall hopelessly in love with each of them. Just about every episode brought tears to my eyes, sometimes joyous, sometimes sad. I just finished the series and I am ready to watch it again with my kids. Too soon? Perhaps, but I'm not ready to say goodbye to these characters, just yet.
