Back at it again with Mr. Robot themed goodies. Really proud of these ones 😁

I’ve been thinking about Steve Golin and how much his influence helped shape Mr. Robot. He was an executive producer on the series, but his contribution went beyond a credit: Sam Esmail has spoken about Golin’s belief in the project and how his enthusiasm for television helped encourage the show’s journey from an unfinished feature idea into a series.
In a Scriptnotes interview, Esmail remembers Golin as “a genius” and talks about how Golin’s excitement about television helped him see the potential in telling the story as a show. That support mattered. Mr. Robot became a singular, ambitious series—cinematic, unsettling, and willing to trust its audience—and it’s lovely to know Golin was part of the story behind its beginnings.
So, thank you, Steve Golin, for believing in Sam Esmail and helping Mr. Robot find its way to the screen. And thank you, Sam, for making something that still gives fans so much to think about.

Small note for accuracy: the Scriptnotes conversation is an interview with Sam Esmail, not Steve Golin; it’s included because Esmail discusses Golin directly.

Just finished it for the second time, when I first watched it I was drug dependent and I thought...wow this is a good show just for it's concept. This second run-through and the ending of Darlene being the anchor really hit me hard. I'm from very functional family, so much so we know that we love each other unconditionally to the point we don't say it enough. After this watch, sober, I had the uncontrollable urge to let my sister know. Tell your family you love them, all I got from my sis was an "ok" but that's all I needed to break down and reiterate the fact we don't say it enough. What a show...

Okay so I just saw The Social Reckoning (for my girl Mikey Madison) and my god Portia was full on into the conservative racist Karen she was playing in it. She really did good in a bit part.

Ofc it makes sense that traffic being sniffed from the exit node to the tor hidden service is already decrypted(at the tor level, not Https application layer) but still by 2015 TLS was already widely implemented on a lot of sites so does it make more sense that Eliot was just able to break the TLS encryption or Rohit was was just so ignorant that he didn't use TLS at all but plain http.

I heard someone compare how mr robot is similar another show involving a character who experiences hallucinations in regards to a murder.

Is this like a major spoiler for this show or am I fine?

honestly one of the things I like the most in this show is how it looks: the shots, the framing, the cinematography in general

Has anyone here already written a breakdown or analysis of it? Or do you know a YouTube channel or video essay that covers the show's visuals? I like a lot this kind of content, so any recommendation is welcome, I'm not picky tbh

Dude fuck. İ legit cried for tyrell it feels like he is dead i hope we see or hear from him cuz dude fuck he was one of my favorites and i dont want him to die off screen :(

Alguém conhece alguma fanfic da Darlene e da DiPierro? Eu procurei pelo Wattpad e nao achei nenhum interessante... Mas acho o desenvolvimento desse casal TÃO BOM!

I have been thinking about the last season and realized that Whiterose and Elliot are basically the exact same person, just broken in two different directions. Both went through awful trauma, couldn't face their pain, and decided to play God to rewrite reality rather than accept the reality or heal

But what’s crazy to me is that the Mastermind's pain/trauma actually directed itself at something real. Corporate greed and the 1% are real things and and his actions actually made a little sense, so destroying E Corp and bankrupting the Deus Group was actually possiblel he fixed a broken system in the real world.

Meanwhile, Whiterose went full delusional trying to hack time and physics because she could not handle the truth of death. She wasted decades and killed thousands chasing the ability to go back in time which was impossible.

Do you think Whiterose represents what happens when the survival instinct of escaping pain completely detaches from logic whereas The Mastermind represents a survival instinct that managed to stay grounded just enough to affect real world change? How do you view their final debate in the reactor chamber through this lens?

Recently someone posted a neat shot of the building, had to check on Google Maps and... well you can also leave a review lol

apologies if it's nothing new

For me it's Cisco in the library when he receives the femtocell. Watched every episode 5 times but that particular scene only once. Absolute nope.

just started the show and my day is abdolutely ruined😭😭😭😭😭

Goodbye, friend

I can't believe there's no more left. I love him so much and I just wish there was more.

But it's like what he said. This only works if I let go too.

This is the best episode I've seen of anything.

Rest in peace, everyone who was lost

First time I watched it was back in 2022. Watched till everything up until season 3. Had no complaints on my behalf. I loved every bit of it. But then I decided to take like a 1 year break for some odd reason before I watched season 4.

Season 4 was good up up until like episode 7. Then I felt like it just fell off the rails I didn't understand anything. I thought it was sooo bad. Especially the season finale which i didn't understand at all lol. I just simply waited to long to watch it and forgot the whole plot.

I decided to rewatch everything in 2024. But for some reason I stopped at season 3 again! I thought that season 3 was a good enough ending and that I didn't want to ruin it by watching season 4 lol.

THEN. FINALLY. In 2026 my friend joined me on holidays and we decided to watch Mr. robot every night. I decided to give season 4 another chance. And HOLY. Luckily I understood so little the first time I watched season 4 that I didn't remember anything. So it was like watching it for the first time and I can easily say that season 4 is now my most favourite season. The ending made me sob my ass off.

My friend made me think I was Eliot for a second lol. He said something like, "Your brain purposely forgot season 4 just so you could relive it again.".

He couldn't have said it any better.

Apologies for the yap. I just have to get it off my chest how good this series is. 10/10. No series has ever come close.

How many times have you rewatched Mr robot? For me about 3 times
