Mr. Robot [SPOILERS]

[Superjakes]

I enjoyed the pilot episode and while I wouldn't say it was the best, it certainly was better than anything else at this point in time. Even Christian Slater's role as a mysterious character works well in this setting.

I liked the way they portrayed the main character . . . average joe, a loner, not much of a looker type instead of the usual hyped up stereotypical characters they push out on most shows.

Can't wait for episode 2.

I agree on the main character - the vulnerabilities also made him better (crying, etc). At this stage, I think Christian Slater is Tyler Durden.

That definitely could be! We may need to add spoiler alert to the title of this thread...

Just watched Episode 2. Can't say much cos spoilers..

Not as much tension as first episode but the episode did end with a bang. So looking forward to Episode 3

Episode 2 was worrying for me. Some very sketchy writing in this episode - really hope it isn't an indication of the quality of the rest of the season.

There was a bit of a fade.

The only thing I don't like about the show is the name. It deserves something better.

Among other things such as the "Evil Corp" and "Fsociety" .... The naming is not very creative. But its been interesting to watch ... so far.

I got so bored, I never bothered to "follow" ep2 and just played games on my phone and only listened what they were saying.
Will give the show another episode or two chance to get uptoo scratch

I hope the show keeps momentum the first episode was pretty good, still have to see the second one.

I thought the same but it depends where they are going with it as they were quite clear about the leads mental state so those might not be in reality hence the funny names. But we'll see where it all goes I guess.

First 7 minutes set the episode for me. The rest was just by-the-way.

8.3/10

You didn't?

 

[Keeper]

As said before, what got me was the accuracy. Loved it.
When he was talking about TOR end nodes seeing everything, I was like "whut.. a show that actually talks about reality and doesn't make shlt up?"

Will watch ep2 tonight.

Lets compare:

Mr Robot vs Scorpion

I've watched more scorpion(2) episodes than Mr Robot(1)...

Mr Robot vs Scorpion

Scorpion HAS to be more realistic - it is practically a documentary, FFS! It is based on the real life experience of some guy who is the spitting image of the lead character in the show. I rest my case.

As for Mr. Robo (I prefer Robo to Robot), I am worried about where it is going. I am not going to wait for the whole season for them to reveal that Christian Slater is his imaginary friend (notice how NOBODY interacts with him - I imagine that's how it is in real life for CS as well, but that's another story). Is this more like Fight Club or more like Suckerpunch? I am hoping for Fight Club, but at this stage I am not too sure.

 

[Superjakes]

Has everybody stopped watching this? Episode 3 was better than 2, in my opinion - a number of wheels set in motion, let's see where this is going.

 

[Nevar]

Agreed the episode was vastly better than the second one. I hope they can only get better.

 

[gregmcc]

Not too sure about this one. 1st Ep was good, 2nd was meh.

I still hate all these shows that use invalid IP Addresses!
