      Came here to recommend Mr Robot as well. The ending of the series was perfectly planned, so it loops around perfectly to the beginning of the series. It was a nice contrast to something like Game of Thrones, where they clearly had no good ending planned and just rushed through to get something done.

      I remember watching the end of Mr Robot and going “holy shit.”

      My partner and I tried sooo hard to like this show after so many recommendations online, but we just kept finding it hella cheesy and forced. D:

        The first season was groundbreaking at the time, but quickly became cringe in hindsight from its popularity and the romanticization of certain events. Later seasons, which weren’t as immediately popular for spoiler reasons, get more and more serious and become more cinematically rewarding for the viewer.

        If you can get past the first season, it gets a lot better. The last season is honestly some of the best pieces of television content I’ve ever seen.
