2nd season starts soon, so yeah, it's coming.
 
Not going to read this thread as I'm trying to avoid spoilers but I just started watching this show and I'm about 4 episodes in. So far it's great!
 
I have never even heard of it. To be honest, didn't even know USA was still a station.

He is incredibly believable. My son is on the High Functioning Autism Spectrum (or Asperger's) and Mr. Malek has nailed it: The laser focus, social awkwardness and heartbreaking desire to be 'normal'.

My son is a coder and we don't share a lot in common, but we love this show. It's actually helped us both understand 'the other side'. Thanks @Tron & @Prime Time for helping me find it.

Was your son watching this show before you found out about it?

USA has had some great TV in the last few years.

Suits. Burn Notice. Psych. Monk. Covert Affairs.

And now the creme of the crop in Mr.Robot

Due to an unfortunate parallel to a real-life tragedy today, USA has postponed tonight's "Mr. Robot" season finale to air next week. (Some minor spoilers follow.) The freshman thriller's season finale features a very graphic on-camera shooting. It's not identical to the tragedy this morning in Virginia, where a TV reporter and cameraman were murdered during a live broadcast, but it was close enough that USA understandably decided it was wise to put a bit of distance between the real and fictional events. No one who watched tonight would be thinking about anything else. In a statement, the network said, "The previously filmed season finale of 'Mr. Robot' contains a graphic scene similar in nature to today’s tragic events in Virginia. Out of respect to the victims, their families and colleagues, and our viewers, we are postponing tonight’s episode. Our thoughts go out to all those affected during this difficult time. »

He saw the pilot episode and mentioned it to me. Then I saw this thread, so we binge watched the next 5 episodes until the wife threw us out of the house. I just got back from a far-to-brief vacation and plan on wasting my Sunday getting caught up. It's so addictive!

Very true! It also has a Fight Club/ V for Vendetta vibe to it.

Season finale? Anyone?

Recorded it last night and just watched it: Awesome! The leader of Evil Corp "knows who did it" which would explain why he's paying so much attention to Angela... And who's at the door? Tyrell?

There are so many reasons to watch this show, but I've zeroed in on my favorite:
The hypnotically HOT Danish Model: Stephanie Corneliussen.

This is pretty much the only show I watch, and as much as I love it it irks me how much it is actually like Fight Club. It's so much like it that I already new what was going to happen at the end of the season by about episode 4. Except I missed the season finale, fuking Directv.
 
Season Finale was good, liked the previous episode more though. Finale went too big way to fast though from rest of the season IMO. Went from trying to do one thing to destroying it all basically. Episode 9 also had a lot more emotion behind it. Not saying the finale didn't have any emotion, it was a good progression, just think they brought everything along way to fast, like there should of been an episode or two in between #9 and the finale(#10).

Basically went from A to C, instead of going from A to B to C like the whole season has gone.

Still my favorite new show, but thats my opinion on the finale.

She's super hot. And super scary. Probably the creepiest character on the show in fact and she's hardly been in it.


Was that White Rose taking to the Evil Corp head? Seemed like it.

I wonder if it's Tyrell at the door, someone new entirely, or finally Angela? I dunno
