What Can I DO TO SAVE HALT AND CATCH FIRE?
WE'RE GLAD YOU ASKED.
1)
Keep telling people about it!
AMC wants to see the numbers go up, therefore the best thing fans can do is spread the word and get more people watching. Don’t think of yourself as just one person who can’t make an impact, we all need to rally together and act as a team. The more people who get more people to watch, the better the numbers will be. Would you rather be part of the choice that helps save the show or the choice that helps get it canceled? Word of mouth can be very powerful, don’t underestimate it. Spread the word!

2) Contact AMC!
If you love Halt and Catch Fire, write AMC, tell them you love it and tell them you want more. Be polite, do not bully the network, but let them know why you love it and why you would like to see it renewed. Try to stick to positive language: say “please renew” instead of “please don’t cancel” (just avoid the “C” word altogether…)

3) Watch the show live!
AMC is looking at those numbers and while they are looking at Live+3 and Live+7 numbers (DVR viewing) they are strongly interested in who is tuning in during that hour when Halt and Catch Fire first airs.
4) Promote on social media!
Use the hashtag #SaveHCF on all of your tweets. “Like” and share Halt and Catch Fire posts on your Facebook page (include notes encouraging your friends to catch up and watch, if you like). Create fanart and post to Tumblr, Facebook, etc. Whatever you can think of, social networking spreads the word better than anything. Use it!
5) Start a petition or sign and share an existing petition
It’s a good visual to send to networks to show them how many fans love and support the show. And basically, it doesn’t hurt anything to try everything.
6) Start or join a fan campaign!
Currently, an organized fan campaign has not started, but we are open to ideas! Some thoughts that have been tossed around: send in floppy disks with supportive messages written on them or supportive and thoughtful hand-written letters with ketchup smears on them. Other suggestions are welcome!
7) Give us your ideas!
