Mr. Fucking Robot Season 2




Holy fucking shit! Not since Breaking Bad has a show been this good, not since Lost(my favorite show of all time) had there been a show this mind fucky. Season 1 was amazing, every episode, and it garnered amazing reviews, fuck, Rami Malek just won best actor in a drama series. The amount of great reviews got me nervous, once shows get good reviews these days, it seems that they pander to critics, American Horror Story had an awesome first season, then the next few(maybe not Coven) seemed pretentious and had some dull episodes tossed in, Game of Thrones, great show, but some episodes(especially the latest season) had episodes that just dragged on & on. Mr. Robot however went all Lost, it got all mindfucky, similar to the Leftovers, they said fuck it and we will keep our audience, we will make it weird, we know out niche and we are fully embracing what they love! Love, i loved this season! Holy fuck, the dynamic between Mr, Robot & Elliot, and later Tyrell was a story of it's own. Christian Slater ran with the role, Martin Wallstrom, while only in a couple episodes was fantastic. The first few episodes were in one's mind, Craig Robinson as Ray was scary, like you felt legit fear for Elliot when he was around. Who is real, what is real? Questions we ask ourselves everyday! Well I do...sometimes. Angela & Elliot, Angela & Darlene, Darlene & Elliot, all three relationships were so different, Angela & Elliot embraced their feelings,Angela & Darlene broke bad, Darlene & Elliot had backstory & you felt their bond! Darlene & the rest of F Society was a brilliant story, and Dom attempting to find them was terrific. Portia Doubleday did her best as Angela this season, adding in new equations to her persona and taking control. Carly Chaikin had so many different traits as Darlene, the sister, the leader, the lover, the killer, she has your back but will murder you, she does what needs to be done. Grace Gummer was introduced as Dom and from the moment we met her, we loved her, she was sympathetic, which was refreshing for an FBI character. The finale left so many questions, is Mr, Robot dead? Is Angela in control of F Society? Did her interaction in the previous episode with the Dark Army make this happen? Is she plotting against Darlene? Is Darlene going to help Dom? Will they try to save Elliot? IS Elliot going to be in a coma? What is real? Is Tyrell real? Is Tyrell's wife, Joanna going to be a key character? Is Leon out of prison? Is Ray locked up? Is Leon seeing F Society just happenstance or is it a part of a mission, or all they all dead? Does Philip Price actually know what is going on? I can't wait til June! THat was how you end a season!
