I was a tad underwhelmed by the S1 wind down. And then I cut cable. So... But I will. I'll check it out. There was enough to like about the show despite the last couple of episodes to keep me interested.

S2 is harder than one, but ultimately it pays off big time.

Good season opener. But

Hopefully that was just wishful thinking talk.

I hope so. I think:

She was just thinking that if she takes down E-Corp, all of her anger about her mom dying will be gone and it will be like it never happened.

I was bored until the end with

Angela and Mr Robot together

The first three episodes of this season have been amazing if you ask me.

First two were good yeah. Im in love with the cinematography and framing of this show.

I remember being underwhelmed by the second season. I need to watch these first few episodes.

The jarring change in Elliot's environment made it hard to get into, but it got better, and ultimately makes sense from a narrative perspective.

I am disappointed in the season ending plot points in terms of the E Corp plot line. That seemed really forced. I love the Chinese hacker element though.

it's very apparent now season 2 had to happen to have season 3 the way it is now.

I'm sure that's the case. The final half was better than the first.

Three episodes into this season. Already a big improvement from last season.

Just finished S3:01... and wow. Great start. I loved the scientist's talk in the nuclear facility during the beginning "infinite versions of myself" being complemented by Elliot's self-actualization and with Angela's talk about "making it like none of it ever happened". It creates a world where the narrative can turn on a dime and still feel true, something S2 had problems with.

This show really stands out in a TV world of good, but not great shows. It takes chances, it gets weird, it is shot incredibly well, etc.

Newest episode felt like a series finale.

Holy shit, they did it. They did 9/11 2. I have no fucking clue where the show even goes from here.
