    What's the premise of this show? the lead looks like a straight up weirdo.

    So a brief plot description.

    That weirdo, the main character, is a loner in New York. Works at a network security company for some corporation. When he isnt working he hacks people. Random people, his therapist, store owners and so on. He's kind of a vigilante in a way as he stumbled upon one store owner that was hosting child porn on his server and got the cops involved on him.

    So he does little vigilante acts here and there, ends up saving the company he works for from getting hacked one night. The hack was just a test though, he ends up meeting an Anarchist that goes by the name of Mr. Robot, and Mr. Robot wants to recruit the main character to his team. Dont fully know what Mr. Robot and his crew do though, but it sounds like they want to hack giant corporations and do a "debt reset" kind of similar to Fight Club in a way.

    Pretty ? explanation but show is dope, definitely should check it out. Its really dark too.

    from the wiki page
    The series follows Elliot Alderson, a young cyber-security engineer who assumes the role of a vigilante hacker by night. Elliot meets a mysterious anarchist known as "Mr. Robot" who recruits Elliot to join his team of hackers, "Fsociety". Elliot, who has a social anxiety disorder but connects to people by hacking them, is intrigued, but uncertain he wants to be part of the group. The show follows Mr. Robot's attempts to engage Elliot in his mission to destroy the corporation Elliot is paid to protect. Compelled by his personal beliefs, Elliot struggles to resist the chance to take down the multinational CEOs that are running (and ruining) the world.

    LOL Right!?!? He just picked up her pen & pad and was like yeah it's time for you to leave. This show is so dope. I watched the pilot like 2 weeks before it aired on demand and 4-5 times since. So I been feenin for ep 2 for a while.

    I like how he confronts the scumbags he hacks. The dude in the beginning especially...he was so shook.

    Show is ? . Starting off nice, hope it doesnt let me down and become wack, but so far so good. First time ive watched a show since the pilot and have to wait week to week in a long time. I usually dont check a show out until its in its 3rd or 4th season so i get to binge watch for awhile until i catch up. 7 Day wait is hell lol.

    Just finished ep 2. I didn't expect it to be as great as the pilot. But it was still very good.

    ? feels like a movie. Overall its very interesting. This is a HUGE win for USA.

    The drug dealer opening up to Elliot like that did seem kinda odd (but ill roll with it). Nice twist with the rapper dude and his mixtape hack lol. But, I did kinda see the very end coming tho.

    Im so ? HYPED for the rest of the season. Its so rare that a show hooks me in from the very 1st episode. it usually takes me like 6-7 eps to really get into a show. But not this ? . Im ? sold from jump street.

    Smash on the MILF shrink btw

    Thanks. I saw Christian Slater in the preview and was shocked that he's still alive. Is he the Mr. Robot guy?

    bear with me I'm gonna catch up with this over the weekend lol. Haven't found any time to do so yet.

    was reading a comments section on another site and ppl on there are sayin the Mr. Robot character is jus figment of Elliot's imagination. Sounds out there, but it is possible.

    It makes me look at the end of episode 2 very differently.
