That's one of the best statements on the general topic I've seen. Sad that it's necessary.
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Mr. Robot had something of a sophomore slump, but it is totally killing it in its third season. Rami Malek manages to outdo himself every episode, and at this point I can't wait for the Freddy Mercury biopic to come out. And Portia Doubleday might even be a better actor than Malek.

I really think the actress who plays the sister is the unsung hero of the series, but we're several episodes behind at the moment.

I really enjoyed this week's episode. Possibly because I more or less understood what is happening.
I agree that the actress who plays the sister is excellent.

Production has been halted because of Bryan Singer's sexual harassment issues, which (from what I hear) are going to be massive.

And Singer was fired.
I tend to believe that Singer's "erratic behavior" probably has more to do with the fact that the Hollywood that Singer is accustomed to is collapsing around him, rather than a specific beef with Malek.

Apparently he went AWOL for ten days. Which brings an expensive production to a standstill and costs a lot of money. Just not done.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I was surprised to find out that he'd also gone AWOL on Superman Returns and one of the X-Men flicks. Of course everyone's heard the chickenhawk rumors, but I'd never seen anything indicating he was flaking out on the job before. That's normally an express elevator to untouchable status (as Josh Trank could attest).

OK, so BBC America's "Killing Eve" starring Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer? Is REALLY FUCKING GREAT. The first of the eight episodes in this season just aired last Sunday, and I was hooked immediately. Guys, it's basically a nemesis ship story featuring two complicated women! When does that ever happen??
The two actors in the leads are fantastic. Comer's glamorous sociopathic assassin is ridic fun to watch, and Oh's titular Eve is already such a great, complex portrayal -- funny, sharp, likable but also reckless and messed-up like whoa, and Sandra Oh is so great in the role (gosh, I've missed seeing her on my screen). Both the dialog and the characters really pop, even one episode in.

About 10 minutes into Killing Eve, I realized was watching my new favorite show.
That was basically me. I would imaging it would be the case for several other Buffistas. BBC America reruns their showings frequently so it should be easy to catch up. Two thumbs way WAY up! I am chewing on my fingers, waiting for the next episode. I haven't felt that new show thrill for a long while.
