Yes it actually gets a lot better in season 2 … HACF and Turn both suffer from C first seasons but turn things around Season 2. I like HACF much better, but if you are looking for something to binge it is entertaining.

It's by far the best new show on television right now. Absolutely watch it.

Exactly.

Fsociety is definitely real. I never said it wasn't. Mr Robot is not real, which is exactly what I said. Also I was not implying that Mr Robot is the "hello friend" imaginary friend, just that he IS an imaginary friend. More than a friend really since he and Mr. Robot are one and the same, much like Tyler from Fight…

The Americans, Justified, Rectify and The Knick were somehow looked over in favor of the nonsense that was Downtown Abby Season 5 and House of Cards Season 3???????? Walton Goggins? Keri Russell? Matthew Rhys? Aden Young? BLAHHH!!! However, very happy to see Tatiana got her long overdue nomination as well as Ben …

But if Mr. Robot looks like Elliot's dad, wouldn't Elliot realize it looks just like his dad? I mean how could he not be freaked out that this person who is leading a hacking group seems to look like his dead father? This theory doesn't make sense to me.

This is now firmly, officially, my favorite new show this year, and perhaps just simply, my favorite show.

Ballers is straight up unwatchable. It's absolutely Entourage but sports. Lifestyle porn for 13 year old boys. Gratuitous and ridiculous. Definitely not worth an ounce of your time. I am angry just writing about it.

She actually is in A LOT (currently recurring on HBO's Ballers) and has some face recognition, at least to me. She will always be Dean's wife he cheated on with Rory (Lindsay) from Gilmore Girls to me.

On IMDB Arielle Kebbel in an upcoming episode so it seems like this guess is correct.

Hannibal Lecter? I ate her.

In defense of the writer's rec on Lou's, despite the hefty mail order price tag, it literally is amazing and worth every penny. I went to Northwestern and I used to eat Lou's at least once a month when I was still on my parents dime. Also Lous > Giordanos. Also I'm hungry.

Can we talk about how Wayward Pines made one of the AV Club reviewer's "favorite media of the year so far" list?!?!?!? Mr. Robot runs circles around this show.

O M F G This episode had errreeeeeything!!!!!

Shoutout to the most hilarious scene in "Debug" (d3bug) when Elliot imagines the world as if he were a normal person and essentially becomes a basic bitch. Music has been so key in framing the show’s scenes, using a mix of classical and cheerless electronic beats, so when Elliot thinks of what normal is, what that…

For all those hating on the Mr. Robot name … I like it and here's why.

Um, she was there. Waiting outside Elliot's boss's apartment where she met Angela and her boyfriend and he told her she looked lovely. And then inside, watching the news along with the other partygoers. Did you watch it?

Take your liberal bashing and weird homophobia elsewhere dude. You're on the AV Club forum NOT Fox News.

Hmm that's interesting. I love that this show causes the audience to question if multiple characters are real because of the obvious way it broadcasts Mr. Robot is not. I think that will be the fun of this series. Figuring out what/who is real and what/who is not BEYOND Mr. Robot.

Mr. Robot blatantly states he's drinking an apple martini and then Elliott orders an apple martini. Then the bartender gives him a weird look, because, apple martinis. So, no. Not absinthe.
