Mr. Robot is an intermittently excellent TV show, capable of dazzling the viewer one episode and seemingly spinning its wheels the next. Its ideas, plotlines, and images pass by in a fugue-like blur. It all seems to be adding up to something, but, barring a few clear-cut reveals and climaxes, it can be hard to say what that is. There is a lot of Rami Malek furrowing his brow, and many people framed in the corners of the screen. People die, then don’t. Malek furrows harder.
Why the furrow? A new video from Screen Smart (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCphlppLaedKn0BgXAszs5dQ) lays out the themes of the first season with surprising clarity, and draws a few interesting conclusions.
