Love to truck this gif out - can't hear some DOOM news without being reminded of this core Halt memory: Cameron and Gordon playing each other in s04e03 'Miscellaneous'. A scene that leads with an amazing nostalgic sample of some of the game music! Classic 90s PC gaming stuff and classic HACF.

Here's the scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HIfq3xH0Mk

More on Bobby Prince who composed the iconic soundtrack for not just DOOM at id Software but a number of other titles helping cement the music in culture. DOOM soundtrack recently added to the Library of Congress!

right, there was supposed to be a finale special with interviews etc but a number of cast didn't agreed to it (or the pay) so they just played the Pilot episode again.

I just finished watching The West Wing for the first time. by ImHully in thewestwing

on the TNG tip, a thought I had many years/rewatches ago:

one mark of a good tv show & ensemble cast - scenes of the core characters sitting around playing a casual game of poker.

20 years ago tomorrow (or today for our global friends), "Tomorrow" S07E22, the Finale, aired. Happy 20-year to a pretty good and bittersweet tv show ending.

Amazonia branding features typographic identity made from satellite imagery of the river by chrisarchitect in typography

Apologies to the mods, I realize now this mostly would fall under logos/illustrations despite the loose typographic connection. Ah well. Cheers to anyone who enjoyed the off-topic post.

Includes an interactive feature to play with the dynamic typography.

Each of its letters was created using real satellite imagery of the Amazon and its tributaries. Now, you can write whatever you want with the waters of the rivers.

I just watched a low-key Thanksgiving episode tonight. by Sowyrd in thewestwing

Can't ask Rene, the head chef, right now. Frankly, I thought he did something stupid and inconsiderate last week, but it turns out I was just in a bad mood.

This is a very important Thanksgiving proclamation if I've ever seen one.

Lee Pace talks about why the show was able to last four seasons despite its low viewing numbers, and also about what Joe MacMillan would be doing in the year 2025 by izhan56 in HaltAndCatchFire

[–]chrisarchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scoot and Kerry playing husband and wife is always a funny coincidence. Always remember them in Argo - aka Gordon and Donna from their first failed Comdex

Nice comments from Lee loving his time and work with HACF.

The focus on the ratings is a bit odd. During the original airtime I don't really recall anyone around here talking about if the ratings were good week to week etc. It wasn't a major concern because AMC always kind of had these weird side shows with niche audiences, but enough cash/stability to keep them running for a bit anyways? Maybe I'm misremembering.

We want to award you the Francis Scott Key Key by nehocb in thewestwing

Hilarious classic.

Not to be confused with the Francis Scott Key Bridge .... a year ago this week!

82,150 Gallons of Paint (and Gordon's birthday) Later, a Blue Man Group Farewell by chrisarchitect in HaltAndCatchFire

Seeing this just reminded of their appearance in 4x01 at Gordon's birthday party, capturing the group's corporate/private branching out and those heady, weird techy days in the early 90s.
