They would have had to start it at least 3 months ago for that. They will get to Season 4 in March. But yeah, it would have been great :).

2022-12-20 15:46:54 +0000 UTC2 Random things about this first half. 1. Not sure if anyone caught it, (goes by super fast...again haha) Darlene is on the fountain in public while Madame Executioner is first jogging. Presumably how she got the connection to her watch/house? 2. For anyone interested (ONLY AFTER THIS SEASON IS COMPLETED!!!) They did release a full copy of everything Elliot writes in that notebook you see him using as a journal. It came with a few extra "accessories" within specific pages, again just as a little extra behind the scenes kinda thing. I enjoyed having it and reading it in the interim before season 3 came! No idea how well the extra "accessories" hold up today or if the outside sources are even functional anymore.

2022-12-19 18:27:17 +0000 UTCI think about this literally EVERY time I see a reactor start the show, haha.

2022-12-19 11:58:28 +0000 UTCI wish LM started this series a good 2-3 weeks ago, it would have been doped timing for them to get up to the Christmas episodes of Mr. Robot in time for actual Christmas (loved those episodes!)

2022-12-18 06:56:42 +0000 UTCCarly Chaikin (Darlene actress) 's delivery of "This is everything right now" to is so good and conveys her character's state of mind in so many layers. Her convincing herself to focus on fsociety with Elliot gone, being forced to step up as a leader, and making it everything she has as a grander purpose so she can cope with it. And the line delivery is so good with that timed pause because of her self awareness that she's fooling herself and she knows Mobley knows she's fooling herself but it doesn't matter anyway because they have to do this.

2022-12-18 06:49:32 +0000 UTCWow, I saw it in the opposite order (Robot - Expanse) but I didn't recognize her! :)

2022-12-18 02:13:05 +0000 UTCOf course Season 4 will be everyone's favourite, because everyone loves a good final season of answers!

2022-12-17 21:38:07 +0000 UTCI agree with the general feeling about Season 2, even though I still really liked it. In my mind Season 4 >= Season 1 > Season 3 > Season 2

2022-12-17 19:40:43 +0000 UTCwell, this was an acid trip or something. really confusing episode altogether, hopefully i won't be this lost in the next episodes. lola, you're not alone, until milena mentioned she was elliot's mother i just assumed he was staying in a supervised place or something or that he employed someone to "take care" of him. felt really sad for darlene this episode and ngl, every time mr robot appears i feel violent. i know he's just a manifestation of elliot's mind but god, he's annoying. i feel like i know the actress of that woman who got hacked, will check it out in imdb later, but i'm afraid to search for shit in case i get spoiled. ps: milena's scream scared the shit out of me. i was really tense in that scene and then she suddenly screams jxhdj i got scared and scared my cat in return because she was sleeping on my lap.

2022-12-17 13:09:25 +0000 UTCI love Joey Badass (Leon), he's a rapper - such an awesome character

2022-12-17 05:04:08 +0000 UTCThe creator of the show (Sam Esmail) wrote and directed every single episode starting from Season 2 (which is like 35 episodes in 3 years) - insane amount of work. And still almost every episode has a unique style and direction, you can feel how much effort was put into the series by everyone involved.

2022-12-17 04:41:30 +0000 UTCOn questions about DID, as long as you are not making assumptions or judgements I think your lack of specific knowledge about how it works may even enhance the reactions. The show tackles a lot of aspects of it, so I'm looking forward to seeing your understanding develop with the show.

2022-12-17 02:26:24 +0000 UTCSorry! Another spoiler coded message. I can't help it haha, I like talking to other Mr Robot fans S4 spoilers.

2022-12-17 02:23:37 +0000 UTCS2's atmosphere and tone are the best of the show, I feel. It's where Mr Robot really becomes Mr Robot, I think in part due to Sam Esmail consistently directing every episode from here on out. I realized recently it's because of how the season lingers on the aftermath/consequences of the hack that it has this wonderful blend of surrealism and realism, somehow simultaneously. It's definitely my most rewatched season and I have a lot of nostalgia for so many scenes (probably because it was the most recent season when I first started watching). Though it also probably has the most incredible individual scenes/montages which is why I always look forward to it
tom
2022-12-17 02:13:14 +0000 UTC@LM Reactions So glad to hear that. It's a contender for my favorite season, but The funny thing is I feel like 2x4 is where it REALLY pops off, so the fact that you're enjoying it so much now is amazing. The season is 12 episodes instead of 10, so that might be why people consider it slow? But yes, after you finish it would love to know your thoughts and how they square with what seems to be the public consensus. (Sidenote: When you reply to comments which one of you is it, generally?)

2022-12-17 01:37:43 +0000 UTCTake your time! Less time to wait for episode 2. :P
Isaac
2022-12-17 01:37:01 +0000 UTCshould i watch this even though i'm already falling asleep and really tired from work or just wait and watch tomorrow?... decisions, decisions i guess i'll just have to wait because if i watch now i'm probably going to fall asleep halfway through it... but i really want to start season 2 🙃🙃

2022-12-16 23:55:31 +0000 UTCMy favorite character about to be introduced in the next episode! Can't wait for the next one.

2022-12-16 23:34:19 +0000 UTCThis is creator Sam Esmail's favorite season and it is definitely an experience. He also directs every episode from here on
autumn
2022-12-16 23:33:15 +0000 UTCPeople also said Better Call Saul was slow and didn't get good until seasons 3-5. Some people just don't like deliberate pacing. Also don't forget in the US this aired with 3-4 commercial breaks per episode so I think that affects it
autumn
2022-12-16 23:32:37 +0000 UTCThis season more than any other Mr. Robot season has SO MUCH re-watch value, it's crazy. It is by far one of the most beautifully bizarre seasons of television ever, on par with season 3 of Twin Peaks or season 2 of The Leftovers.
Andrew
2022-12-16 23:32:19 +0000 UTCThe conclusion that I've arrived at is that the attractive story threads are followed in a way that isn't palatable to mainstream audiences. The content of the season is top tier as always
Isaac
2022-12-16 22:47:22 +0000 UTCsurprised to hear some people thought season 2 was slow, for me atleast the pacing and withholding of info was brilliant especially in retrospect
Sebastian
2022-12-16 22:43:43 +0000 UTCMan this season is so good. It isn’t my favorite season overall but it IS my favorite season to re-watch. I have no doubt the girls are going to love it as well
Dante
2022-12-16 22:23:44 +0000 UTCYeah, I looked it up before reposting to double check how to spell her name and she's in 7 expanse eps total which is loads
Kara
2022-12-16 22:18:01 +0000 UTCDamn, you're right. I never noticed that that's why she seems familiar - she's in a few the expanse episodes
JFM
2022-12-16 22:00:09 +0000 UTCYeah, I love this season. Loved all scenes this episode but especially the ones with Elliot. They still get me feeling very anxious and the score is just doing such a good job emphazising that.
JFM
2022-12-16 21:56:56 +0000 UTCA great episode, welcome to Season 2! I love this season personally. You may recognise the actress who plays Susan Jacobs (the evil corp lawyer) - her name is Sandrine Holt and she played Cheryl Hamlin (Howard Hamlin's Wife) on Better Call Saul, and Oksana (Camina Drummer's crew / family member) in The Expanse.
Kara
2022-12-16 21:54:27 +0000 UTChe also helps with editing the episodes together as well. There is a writers room and the other writers also write episodes.

2022-12-16 21:51:10 +0000 UTCpeople said it’s the slowest one but we’ve seen 3 episodes and we have like two dead bodies already and i dont know whats happening, i am constantly on the edge of my seat
LM Reactions
2022-12-16 21:50:08 +0000 UTCWe begin season 2! It's the season with the lowest scores on IMDB especially the first few episodes but the creator Sam Esmail said its his favorite. Speaking of which from here on out every episode is written and directed by Sam Esmail. Thats unusual for a TV show because its so much work for one person but he managed to pull it off.
