Awesome! I love this show!

No surprises there, considering how they ended episode 10.

Hope, they'll pick up where they left with season 1, quality-wise.

Nice!

Awesome. Season 3 was such a great comeback after season 2 fumbled a little. I'm surprised it didn't lose a lot of it's audience after the complaints the 2nd season got. Looks like fans of this show are more of the patient sort.

Can't wait for Season 4. That last episode set it up really well.

It lost me. I tried to pick it back up but it's too confusing if you're not patient enough to sit through the awful second season. So when they do return with the fourth season, I hope it's in a way that people who've only watched/remembered the first season can also join in.

Season 1 was somewhat derivative. "Who is Tyler Durden?" Not saying I didn't love it. The dialog was amazing and captivating, it's just that I appreciated the turns Mr. Robot took in the second season.

Yes, it did rip off Fight Club a bit too much in the first season. Luckily it was otherwise very well written. What really intrigued me was that when season 1 ended I saw the potential for Mr Robot to keep going where Fight Club stopped. The show could actually explore what happens when everyone's credit drops to zero.

This was where I felt season 2 dropped the ball. It didn't explore this new world enough. The damage and societal changes didn't seem anywhere near as big as I thought they would be. Instead the show meandered. Focusing too much on Elliot's damaged psyche and spending a lot of time on other less interesting plot threads. Not that Season 2 didn't have some great bits.

I agree. I felt like a lot of things jumped too much in the second season from Elliot's perspective. It all made sense in the end, but the dream-like aspect throughout the whole season felt like bad writing. But it was a good ride.
