It is shit!
Epic pilot, then couple of awful episodes that will make you stop watching the show. Fifth takes the pace a bit but until end of S01 show is in shambles.
Real bad attempt at using Fight Club premise.
Edit: They really shouldn't make the mistake developing the story in a direction that is so painfully obvious in first few minutes of pilot. It is like seeing and acknowledging the wall in front of you and yet deciding to keep going forward full speed.

Last i checked in Mr Robot they didn't try to build an army to fuck up society and overthrow the ones in charge. This storyline was way more realistic and in line with anonymous and other hacktivist groups of today. Only thing in common is their end goal
And it's not really obvious. It was filled with twists and mindfucks. Plus it slowed down a bit I admit but it was to develop characters even more plus to show how fucked up Elliot's head is.
It is okaish. Definately not one of the best series, but I kinda liked it. And I dont really understand the "mindfuck" here. Is your mind really that simple to fuck with? Everything this series did has been done before. Elliots disorder use in the plotline was shocking like 15 years ago. And the best characters are so over the top batshit insane its almost like Looney Toons, thats why its entertaining, but the shocking mindfuck value just goes out the door, because you already know these characters will do insane shit so you expect everything.
It's not so much about what he will do as it is more of a question of ''What is real and what is not?'' in the Mr Robot world. And if you really watched it you'd know he has been on prescription medicine for a long while as well as been a regular morphine user too. Add in some tragedies in his life or a certain moment in the past and it might fry his brain. And only 2 characters are batshit insane. And that's Tyrell + Elliot.
Some believe in a theory also that they're the same person although i have a hard time believing it.
Like Anonymous on steroids. And no, it's not even that similar to Fight Club.
And that's Tyrell + Elliot.
The way they are developing the story in such amateurish way, they could easily ignore all the loopholes, say they are same person and call it a day.
