The first season has been over for quite sometime now and I could swear that we already have threads about this show from around the time the show actually aired.

All in all I liked the show. Likely the best depiction of InfoSec we have had in a movie/tv show!

just my 2C

Yeah, I thought you guys already have a thread, but honestly, I was unable to find it, then I started this one ^^

I think the "character development" is the best thing TV shows can offer. >And many movies can't adapt realistic drama due the plot time (like action movies - my wife just died, fuck it; i dont need to suffer, just kill some guys...). Moreover, books adapted movies are often victims of the "bad adapted" thing. Why? Cause they don't have time space to explore those psychologic development with its characters.
I'm not saying movies are doomed to be bad, but, in general, they have more plots than the realistic drama could support.

I usually would not be this cynical. But when you decide to post one long post jerking off the show Mr. Robot. It makes me want to tear out your eyes from their sockets. See there is not such a thing as "Hollywood nihilism " it is simply me giving a critical analysis of the Hollywood circlejek. Also pixar sucks dick, and the only reason people like them is because they have the excuse of being children's movies. Also what was that about thanking me for "expose opinion"? Could you clarify?

Not jerking of, just presenting...
Tear out my eyes? I'm not saying it is perfect, just very good. And I still think It's kind prejudice... The acting and cinematography are good, no reason to tag "pretty bad"/"bleh" on it.

"expose your opinion" SORRY, I'm really embarassed right now, I thought could use it, then I researched and found out that it's not suitable! I meant "give your opinion", again, sorry. (have just edited it)

Mr. Robot is overrated in my opinion. Mediocre plot, pretty bad acting, and the cinematography is bleh. Whatever. Who cares if it is realistic, if it is a bad tv show. Also critics mean shit. Look at almost any pixar movie, it is given rave reviews by critics, even though they are okay at best. IMO there will never be a good tv show, because of the format they are forced into. If a tv show is not good it will not survive. However if a tv show is good, it will go on forever until it is destroyed. For example: Soutpark, The Office, Lost, Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, Dexter etc.

I think you got a kinda Hollywood Niilism. I really don't see this "pretty bad acting" much less "bleh cinematography" you refer. About the plot, ok, each one with yours opinion...

About these Pixar rave reviews... they are considering that what they are reviewing is an animation, cartoon, and "woow its really nice for a cartoon", maybe realy nice for what they propose to do/show/teach. Mostly I think that's the point.

"there will never be a good tv show" and there it is, the niilism, the prejudice. (be careful)

Well, finally, I respect that you don't like the show, but technically, I really think it is well made - and that is what they say... ~~1 point less for using the Argumentum ad verecundiam hahaha~~

Anyways, thank you for give your opinion, rly matters for me

Since its first appearence, the show has been manufacturing a lot of addicts around the world;
The ~~Weird~~ Wired Magazine tagged it as The Best Hacking Show Yet;
Even The Guardian surprised us with its article Edward Snowden is a huge fan of the show.

I'm talking about, of course, Mr. Robot.

USA Network presents, Mr.Robot, a psychological thriller that follows Elliot(Rami Malek, “24”), a young programmer, who works as a cyber-security engineer by day and as a vigilante hacker by night. Elliot finds himself at a crossroads when the mysterious leader(Christian Slater,“Adderall Diaries”)of an underground hacker group recruits him to destroy the firm he is paid to protect. Compelled by his personal beliefs, Elliot struggles to resist the chance to take down the multinational CEOs he believes are running(and ruining)the world. From Universal Cable Productions, this contemporary and culturally resonant drama also stars Portia Doubleday (“Her”)and Carly Chaikin(“Suburgatory”). http://schedule.sxsw.com/2015/events/event_FS18121

Well, I really wanted to post my review about Mr. Robot, but my English skills aren't that good, so I gonna just put here random achievements/reasons to watch:

- Audience award winner from SXSW;
- Participant of Tribeca Film Festival;
- On track to be a Modern Classic according to Forbes;
- Pilot episode with 2,6 millions of views;
- Really praised by critics...

And here are some ~~of my sources~~ interesting articles about it:
Wired: MR. ROBOT IS THE BEST HACKING SHOW YET—BUT IT’S NOT PERFECT
theguardian: Mr Robot: 'Edward Snowden is a huge fan of our show'
Uloop: Why You Should Watch Mr. Robot
Forbes: 'Mr. Robot' Review: The Best Show Of The Summer And On Track To Be A Modern Classic
Detailed Information at IMDb

~~But I know you guys don't have time for that, so keep studying and be happy!~~
