So far we've got shout-outs or callbacks to Fight Club, American Psycho, Breaking Bad, maybe some Michael Clayton…

Or like she was giving out candy.

Angela gave Terry an odd little smile when she saw his ankle alarm. The colossal prick didn't even recognize her.

She's like the manic pixie dream girl crossed with Amy Winehouse… I'm continuing to be fascinated by Elliot's attempts to save the women in his world, and how they keep blowing up in his face. Especially given the fact (?) of his abusive mother. It's scratching that part of my mind…

Anyway though, the thing I was trying to say wasn't really about Darlene vs Angela or which ep has him "a month old"—you're right, it's Angela in the withdrawal dream in ep 4—it's that we still don't know what landed him in (presumably a court-enforced) therapy in the first place, and I'm thinking it's related somehow…

Hm. I remembered it as Darlene in the arcade, but will re-watch and note…

People have said so. But he seems to live in a really nice home if he is.

Still waiting to see who is real and who is just in Elliot's head… Pretty sure Christian Slater's not real. I re-watched the pilot and part of 1.1 (I love how the episode numbering starts at 1.0, as any coder might expect) after finishing all the eps so far. What I noticed was that the only person Mr. Robot had…

Had his head up his ass. Decided acting was for pansies and left Hollywood to box and get his pretty face smashed in.

I really love that movie, but Mickey Rourke's Bukowski is extremely non-Bukowski-like. "Stylized", I guess is the more polite word for it.

Post Office + The Most Beautiful Woman In Town would be my recommendation, to get at both his prose and poetry.

Just glad to see AtS getting some love. It and BtVS were the first series that really made me get involved with comment boards. Good ol' UseNet…

I always felt that Mutant Enemy put Cordelia through just a few too many changes. Like they didn't quite know what to do with her. Maybe that had to do with Charisma Carpenter's pregnancy, but strictly from an in-story perspective it was a bit disconcerting.

I thought it mirrored the book very well, except for Pynchon's writing style, which is sparkling and funny and cannot be directly translated onto the screen, even with a voiceover from a semi-present character.

Or (my guess), none of the necessary information will be found and Daya's baby will simply be lost in the system and adopted or fostered out, untraceable due to negligence and/or incompetence.

He had me at "Mommy".

Also, "Take a deep breath. We're going to do the torture thing." in The Long Kiss Goodnight.

The review is right in saying this is an incomplete portrait, but the rest of his observations are overly simplistic. These kids are going to be alright, despite being raised like Flowers In The Attic. It's strongly implied that the father was abusive to his wife, but she doesn't exhibit the awful passivity of a…

It's made out of cereal boxes and yoga mats. Seriously.

The dad's not a monster, but no they were locked in for a lot of the time. At least they gave the impression that they were.
