mr. robot: season 1 finale discussion (spoiler alert)

with usa network’s mr. robot first season finally concluded,  the finale had some high moments.  white rose was discovered to playing both sides of the fence with evil corp. and fsociety.  or just playing fsociety.  the vice president committing suicide on television was  a shock moment but definitely well played out.  eknme found it intriguing that they found a way to link all the current events in today’s economy to mr. robot.  with still many people laid off, actually mr. robot’s idea of burning down steel mountain and eradicating everyone’s financial records seems more of a viable dream or a pipe-dream for most right now still unable to find work.  many of us are burning through our savings and looking at our accumulated retirement funds as sources to put food on the table and avoid home foreclosures.  of course, some of the unemployed are living off of food stamps and government subsidies.  with the burn rate of the government subsidies with still many people unemployed or have simply given up, the subsidies surely can’t last for long.  the u.s. government at some point can’t continue funding these subsidies with little taxable income coming in.

fsociety accomplished what it wanted to.  but perhaps they were manipulated into doing the bidding for evil corp. in a roundabout way.  that remains to be seen into season 2 of mr. robot.  elliott may have been played.

tyrell has abandoned the scene, and elliott woke up in his car.  it begs the question as to whether elliott is tyrell too.  could be. may be. not entirely out of the realm of mr. robot.

and of course, mr. robot has been confirmed to be delusion in elliott’s head.  eknme hold some belief that it may be the reverse is true.  mr. robot is indeed real and elliott is not.  we will continue figuring that out into the next season.

great television series overall.

what do you think of mr. robot and its finale?  what are your opinions as to what’s going to happen next?
