The series starts in the autumn, and new ones are launched. Some are a little disappointing (for example, Gotham didn’t thrill me), while others are real gems.
Forever is one of these gems: an American series broadcast by ABC, which started on 22 September and is now in its fourth episode, in itself the plot is not particularly original in its themes,...

Halt and Catch Fire (an explanation of what the title means can be found here) is an American series broadcast since 1 June 2014 on AMC. It has to its credit a 10-episode first season that ended on 3 August and has been renewed for a second series.
I am only talking about this show, despite finding it very good,...
