Doesn't anyone here watch "Halt and Catch fire"? [View all]

It's on AMC and its ratings are terrible. Now it is on its fourth and final season.

I'll admit that season one wasn't that great, but the following seasons more than made up for it. It is a great show, well-written and great acting. I'm really hooked on it and I feel sad that it's ending this year.

So, does anyone else like the show?
