NOT NP: Mr Fucking Robot, Season 2

[L E Bryan]

<sigh> Okay, I’m giving it a try. Downloaded season 1 from iTunes, or rater tried to. Took several hundred dollars to get it installed as when I replaced my hard drive last December the now-gone tech forgot a crucial part that Apple needed for me to be able to download stuff from iTunes. But finally got episode 1 installed for $2.99. I watched it. Just interesting enough to want to watch episode 2 and since I was already out so much, another $22.00 was peanuts. Maybe someone who watched the whole thing can tell what happened after he apparently got shot getting a fix at the end of episode ? and seemed perfectly fine on episode ?+1. (Perfectly fine for Elliot, in need of serious help for the average man.) I’ve not watched all 10 episodes; am tempted to skip to episode 10 to find out if they ever nail Evilcorp. On the whole I’m not impressed with the story. It has the traditional soap opera format tat can drag on indefinitely, the arch never coming back down. The acting is good. I may have liked it more if I could somehow turn off the god damned awful irritating computer generated music.
