Watched episodes 2 and 3 today - the show has a very different feel than I expected and the directing is fairly unusual too. I like it though!

Not really a spoiler but kind of...

Nice job on getting "Yellen."

Is every show going to have their own talking aftershow? I watch and enjoy talking dead but hacking robot is just terrible. I want to punch the host n the face. Hes so annoying and tries too hard.

^Gotta milk it for what it's worth. Seriously, Talking Dead costs $50 and they retain a substantial portion of the main show's audience. Lame but when you can print money...

Need more Grace Gummer. She's Meryl Streep's daughter in case you aren't aware.

Was she the FBI agent?
edit: Yes, yes she was. I guess she is going to have a big role the season - she's billed in every episode according to IMDB.

Something better happen in the next few episodes. So far, I've been extremely underwhelmed by where this show has gone. It's like the entire story led up to the conclusion of the first season and they are just milking that.

I think I'm going to wait for all of the episodes to drop before diving into Season 2.

Netflix's Daredevil has spoiled me for binge watching

There is something going on with White Rose and Phillip Price, as shown for a few minutes in the last episode and in the post-credit scene from last season. But I am so over Elliot's breakdown, time for Mr. Robot to take over and for him to get in gear.

there is the fan theory that he is in a mental institute the whole time and Craig Robinson is a ward, which would be disappointing IMHO

Agree this season so far is crap, the part where he throws up the Ritalin almost made me stop watching but I'm willing to give it another episode or 2 before giving up.

I have such a hard time separating him out from the Office and other work. It's to the point where it's hard to take his character serious. Almost expect him to pull out an electronic piano and start singing.

In general, this is where shows disappointment. Lure me in with what seems to be a hacking show and anarchy and now it's about mental health. Lost did that were it started off with a sci-fi/mystery feeling about an enchanted island and slowly deteriorated into a drama based around purgatory.

The crazy thing is it isn't really about mental health, as his shrink is a minor character this season.

I think the point of all this is to prop up his sister as the second most important character (and motivation for him to hack) but it's taking forever to get there.

It's been a really slow season so far -- last episode was slowest. I mean, I really appreciate the cyb3ring, but FBI agent is barely getting any screen time so far.

Agreeing with most everyone else. First season was awesome and got me hooked. This seasons sucks though.

Chinese hotel massacre was more action than every episode so far.

I was trying to make a joke, since he told him not to look, and he looked anyway...
Yeah, much more action, and even that one guy took himself out (unsure why, still seems he could have escaped even with her shooting at him.) He had a better gun.
I also wonder if we will see the clock room again?

What the fuq...

I just found out that Tyrell Wellick speaks Swedish and his wife speaks Danish on the show. Not the ability of the actors, they actually speak different languages on the show in conversations. Did not know the two were compatible -- I know Afrikaans and Dutch are compatible, somewhat Spanish and Portuguese and maybe even Italian.
