30 Rock had its own very particular brand of comedy. It was fast, witty and occasionally sounded like they were just stringing random words together. It moved from one joke to the next without pausing, barely giving you enough time to process what they said. And that worked really well for them. Ranking the best…
We’ve finally reached the end, the final episode of the first season of Halt and Catch Fire. We’ve seen our intrepid trio of heroes scratch and claw their way through the tech industry from unlikely development team, all the way to grand innovators with their ironically titled Giant, the all-in-one portable PC.
