i just watched episode 5, What was everyone opinions?


i honestly liked it,
[warning, spoilers]
i like how China hackers dropped out after they got the malware on E-corp servers. However i dislike how manipulative Elliot is when he is suppose to be socially crippled.

>second part of spoiler
I completely agree with that. While the rest of the show doesn't go overboard, this seems to be a bit too try-hard-edgy, like something someone who isn't too self aware would think about themselves. It would be great if it was revealed that he is constantly messing up things like that and what we see is just how he perceives it.

What does everyone think of the last 2 episodes

spoilers!

during brave traveler, the end where she got killed was rather lame, (not that she was a really needed character.

honestly it felt a little slow, other than the death seen of the one guys wife, and the last scene where elloit spills his heart out to his therapist.

Getting the certificate gave a straight forward answer.

The certificate is valid for the following names: a248.e.akamai.net, *.akamaihd.net, *.akamaihd-staging.net, *.akamaized.net, *.akamaized-staging.net

So it's a cdn network owned ip.

I enjoyed it during the first episode when it was a dark hacker themed show, but it slowly became a crime drama/thriller and sort of forgot what its original vision was..

I still watched all episodes..but I just wish it kept to more what the first episode was

Rami Malek said in some interview (can't seem to find it) that the "best is yet to come", I personally can't predict anything about the show and I think that they're going with the slow pace since there's going to be a season 2.

He wouldn't, because it's a rubbish board with very low quality of posting and nothing tech related to talk about. But what I'm saying is, he's a glamourised version of a robot, a hollywood take on the public perception of a 4chan browser circa the exploding van era.

You get me?

Yes, actually. I don't even think it was "thinly veiled", he had just shrunk his web browser so you couldn't see the title or the boards, just the recent posts/images section.

So I take back agreeing with that other anon, Elliot clearly participates in quality cuckolding and racebait threads on the daily.

Yeah that was a good one. First thing was strange, second thing was strange but also expected.

But the third thing, yeah that was sexy.

This season only has two episodes left and after that we are going to have to wait a long time for season two.

I really do like how all the episodes are really connected, just picking up one from the middle won't get you much like a lot of other series. I wish that there were more tech in the series, so we could have our TV series that were more of Hackers/War Games of our decade. But really can't complain, this series is good.

>>1335
Yeah that entire last bit was interesting.

Sure they might be building for the next season and I think they are. Before this season is over I think they will try to hack it and fail. That will be the set up for season two, they were young, disorganized, not ready or whatever reason they can think of for what they were taking on.

So in season two they will have cops/hackers/bosses breathing down their necks while they try to do it all over again.
But I don't think that means more tech just because they say "The best is yet to come", because that can mean a lot of different thing, especially for non tech people.

All in all, pretty much the best series on television we have. Only one I'm really following and looking forward too.

Why is the resolution so low? webm has support for higher, and why isn't there any sound?
