Anyone familiar with this? Watched the first two episodes last night and wow, for a show about a nerd that hacks people it's actually pretty fucking good - i think this might be my new favourite show :)

There's about 4 episodes so far i think, hope they manage to maintain the awesome...

Hollywood and portraying computer security. That's not a combination with a great track record.

It's called Hackers, the plague was the bad guy in that movie, in reference to your comment about bad portraying and hollywood.

Yeah it's good. Ep4 was pretty weak but I really really enjoyed the first three.

Obvious theory is obvious:
Mr Robot is imaginary

I must have been so impressed with her rack that I thought it was a good movie. Years later i tried to re-watch it thinking it was good. After 5 minutes... ffw ---》

Christian Slater... when I was at uni and working behind a bar, we ejected him from the premises. :) He kept on coming behind the bar trying to pull pints, and the last straw was putting his cigar out with the cider tap.
Bit too drunk and not taking the friendly hints to shut up and sit down = out!

that trailer looks pretty neat, might try and catch this... it's not online is it, so I'd be relying on catchup for the last few eps?

Humans is like a poor man's Utopia based on a rejected idea for a Black Mirror episode. It's better than most, but not top tier.

Wow this is a great show! I was especially impressed with the technical aspects of the show. It's not like 100% spot on but the technical jargon is good enough to not be absurd, if a little too much at times but otherwise the premise of the show and the direction it's going is really good. I especially like the lead, they seem to have chosen well for that role. Can't wait to watch Ep 2.

Aye, watched up to ep 4 by now, it's still solid enough to look forward to the next episode (though i agree with phant about ep 4).

group of people who secretly run the world... blah blah... 1% of the 1%... blah blah... they're following me... blah blah...

not that i'm saying this won't be enjoyable (haven't seen it) but that's a lame premise if ever i heard one

Also, I've heard Humans is pretty good, being of AI/robots and their effects on people. Anyone seen?


I watched the first episode of 'Humans' last night on the television after seeing a brief preview glimpse days ago. I was correct in that I read about it somewhere too :D

Very interesting.

So has anyone watched Season 2 of this yet? Oddly, my icon is featured in the show as the logo for a piece of software!

so this show is ok so far i guess, with reservations. not sure why it's called Mr Robot since that character is always in the background..

also, drug-taking, violence, and steamy man-on-man action - but very little strong language...?

The lady and I started it finally last night, pretty decent so far. As far as technical detail, much better than most Hollywood flair.
