Yeah it's pretty good better than some of the others going around. From memory it's rated highly by those that watched it.

Just watched the first ep. I dunno the main character is soooo unlikable, as well as being a massive rip off of Dexter Morgan.

Anyone else think the actor is a dead spit for a younger Michael Shannon?

They've pulled the finale due to the Reporter and Cameraman who got blown away, apparently there's a similar theme in the episode.

that series finally was really blah. they really hyped it up and left it with nothing. I dunno left me empty. I wanted to see more on the Hack, them doing it. and Now its just all "WHAT HAPPENED" its NOT how you end a season. Assholes.

I didn't have too much problem with the finale as a set up for next season i.e. the apparent collusion of Whiterose & E-Corp, how Elliot will deal with Mr Robot.

What continues to annoy me is the casting of Christian Slater: during his "Tyler Durden" speech to Elliot at the end I just felt flat, the guy has no charisma.

I agree VT, I don't mind a setup for next season, at least it shows it has a chance to go beyond the first season, I also thought Christian Slater was one of the weakest lead characters I've seen in a while.

Just started this last night & what a first episode, my mind is blown as the story could go any which way.
The lead actor's look & mannerism's are exceptional as is Mr Slater. :D
Can't wait to watch Ep 2 tonight. :yes:

Yeah, we watched Ep 2 & 3 last night & there is definitely some strange weird side thread stories. But we still liked most of it so we will continue to watch it for now.

I actually really enjoyed it when I watched it. Thought the story was pretty awesome and keeps you guessing all the way through. Stick with it :)

Watched a few episodes of this on a plane last night - really enjoyable (I'm always late to the new TV sensations) - I had the exact same thought about Dexter too - from the voiceover and then when he has the CD trophies. Looking forward to seeing the rest of it. Intriguing.
