All good things must come to an end, including frankly the best show on TV ever. It's the end of Talk and Catch Fire as well. We end the podcast by checking in with all of the characters, wondering what they're getting up to now (Bos and Diane are definitely exploring America in a caravan, and Donna and Cameron are definitely living together and working on the Next Big Thing), and how the incredible final 90 minutes of Halt was, uniquely but unsurprisingly, one of the most satisfying and organically full-circle endings ever. It was the ending of our dreams, but we're going to miss this show more than words can describe, because truthfully these characters are enthralling enough that they could warrant watching 30 years of their journey in real time. How lucky we are to get a snippet of 12 years of it. Thanks for listening, and in the words of Joe McMillian, "write me from the future".

It's the second last week of Halt and Catch Fire ever, a fact we're actively avoiding. In the seventh episode of the podcast, we talk about the show shifting gears once again to create a mournful, human masterpiece in 4x08 'Goodwill'. It asks the question the show has from the very beginning: how do you put a human in a box, to capture what it is capable of in a machine?

In the third episode of the podcast, Camille and Ella discuss the fourth episode of the fourth season of Halt and Catch Fire, which is named after the the 1994 Winter Olympics Tonya Harding/Nancy Kerrigan incident. Who's Halt's Tonya and Nancy? We've got a few ideas... Weirdly, we're discussing this the day after a film about Tonya Harding premiered at the Toronto Film Festival to a barnstorming reception, so kudos to Halt for preempting this resurgence.
