AMC is ready for Halt and Catch Fire Season 3.0.

The network announced Thursday that it has picked up 10 new episodes of the series, set to premiere next summer.

“We love what the creative team and cast have been able to deliver on Halt and Catch Fire and are particularly grateful to the critics and fans who supported the show throughout the second season and have been pulling for its renewal,” said Joel Stillerman, president of original programming and development for AMC and SundanceTV.

Co-creators and writers Christopher Cantwell and Christopher C. Rogers are set to act as showrunners, taking over for Jonathan Lisco, who oversaw the first two seasons and currently has a pilot set at TNT.

In a joint statement, Cantwell and Rogers said: "Much in the way that ‘Halt’ is about underdogs overcoming convention and breaking new ground, the story of season 3 will endeavor to further stretch the medium and challenge the form.”

Season 2 of Halt and Catch Fire concluded with the entire gang ending up in Silicon Valley, to no doubt break some ground in what, at this time, was just a fraction of its current being.
