Mr. Robot

Anybody watching this? Best show on TV right now IMO.

 

It has a definite "Fight Club" vibe to it.

Looks good.

 

Anti- Big Corporation yes, Anti-American, I have yet to see any of that. It's a Multi-national, more of a worldwide issue. The main villain is a Scandinavian Patrick Bateman type, and a secondary villain (possibly a more major character then we realize), is a common street thug with illusions of granduer, nothing to do with the Corporations.

There's also the twist, the main character may be seeing things differently then what is actually going down. He's a pretty fucked up character himself.

It all seems very convoluted in describing it, but it's done very seamlessly.

 

The best thing about this show: Everything that happens to the characters, every decision made, has consequences and ramifications. There's lots of twists, but they don't hide them behind convoluted logic and reasoning. Even when characters make the right decisions, there is often a consequence to their actions that makes perfect sense.

 

The main star also played SNAFU on the HBO mini series The Pacific.

 

Enjoying this so far.

Nobs, have you seen Bosch? Good cop drama, reckon it would be up your alley.

 

Is that on Amazon? I think my dad watched it and told me it was good, but it's one of those things I'm not sure I'll find the time for.

 

Yeah that's the one. I'm 5 episodes in and it keep getting better. A lot of familiar faces from the wire.

 

This show is awesome. Just started watching yesterday. I'm on episode 5 right now.

 

As it looks - is it for IT Geeks? :dunno:

 

Don't know if it's FOR them, they might relate to it more. There's a lot of technical jargon thrown around, but in the context it's used, it's not really important whether you understand it or not. It's more of a mind-fuck conspiracy show then anything.

If you like the parts of "Fight Club" without the actual underground fighting, there's a good chance you'll like this. Not to say there's not any action in this, because there's plenty of that to go around to.

 

I'm all caught up. Great all around show. Never a dull moment.

 

Anyone else as interested in this show as I am?

I have the feeling Tyrell and his wife are spies for another country. Has a feel like The Americans.

Apparently Elliot will be dealing with his mental problems for the entire series. Kind of crazy that he wakes up two days later and the hack went through.

I'm really intrigued about Angela working for Evil Corp. What a fantastic storyline. Mr. Price is a creepy fucker. You can feel the evil.

I want to see what game White Rose is playing.

 

Mr. Robot (USA Network)

Is anyone else watching this masterpiece of a tv show? Very compelling.

 

I havent seen a single episode, dont know anyone else who has either.

And a simple cursory glance at it tells me why: it for Pokémon GO players.

 

All you do is shit on every thread. No real contribution to the board.

 

Thats what yo Mom said when I shit on her chest! ::

 

Fuck off and stop crying ya cunt. ::

 

Season 2 was even better than 1.

One of the best TV shows currently running.

 

I thought Season 1 was more engaging. 2nd Season is more of a slow burn, and much weirder. Still good though.

 

:: His face has character. Fits the part.


Lots of good supporting characters to. He's really just a small part.

 

Yep.
Not just punchable, but liquidatable.

Hard to get into a show when that fucker´s face is there all the fucking time, never-changing, immovable...

 

What about 'Quarry'?

 

Interesting season finale.

 

Yep, as I thought:

Mr Robot: from show of the zeitgeist to TV's biggest disappointment

 

Loved the 1st 2 seasons, I'm pretty sure I watched all of Season 3, but barely remember it. Not sure if I want to bother with the 4th season. Think it's probably run it's course already.
