And I'm going to need a flow chart to keep track of who is in league with whom.

I get just enough to kind of understand enough of what's going on. Like the cast. Tonight had a big surprise.

4. Best show on Television.

And the only one I have to watch when it broadcasts, everything else I can just do whenever on demand but Mr. ROBOT I love so I stay up past my bedtime on Wednesday just to watch. Only show I can compare it to as far as interest level and good writing is Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad but there is nothing else on the old tube worth watching.

And tonight's episode, wow so much did that just happen and it was great to see B.D. Wong in it, I hope to see more of his character.

This show gets better and crazier with each episode. And Rami Malek - what an actor! Even when I'm completely confussed (which I often am with this show) his performance is hypnotic. I though last week's episode was amazeballs but tonight's freaked me the fuck right out. I mean, everybody was predicting that one thing but the way the show rolled it out was frankly beautiful. And then there was that other surprise thing that came out of absolutely nowhere!

This show. That actor. This show. Diiiiigggg ittttt!

He did a superb acting job there and after seeing The Pacific I had wondered when he would have another breakthrough role and here it is. I love this show, so wish the season was not almost over.

I saw the Museum movies and I remember him but those films were so fluffy.

But this role, I mean, that last scene from last week's episode, that was some of the best damned acting I've ever seen.

8. The Pacific was an HBO miniseries based on the Marines

Who fought in the Pacific Theater during WWII. It was pretty much the true story based on a couple of books written by vets and was narrated by Tom Hanks and the Vets who were still alive, Rami played Merriel (Snafu) Shelton you can see a lot of where he got his Mr. Robot character from it, I highly recommend watching it if you have HBO.
