...I love the show. And I like how they use backtrack, armitage, metasploit, ettercap and other geek stuff for the show: it's not like one of those show were hacking isn't realistic at all. The show/technicalities are real and that makes the plot line even stronger...
HUGE part of what makes me enjoy the show.

Started watching season 2, which reminded me of what I didn't like about S1, the whole Fight Club ripoff thing. But the CEO's speech to the gubbmint people in S02E02 will keep me around for a while. Awesome!

This show is stupid. You guys are cra cra for liking it.

I like Starbucks. I like my Honda. I like the value exchange of time/money for goods, especially after trying to grow my own food (especially coffee. Roasting your own is a PITA) and live semi off grid. I can't relate to Elliott's problems and childish rants. And Christian Slater was OK in Young Guns 2, Star Trek 4, and True Romance. That's it.

I recall Slater was really good in Heathers..

What's a "rootkit"?

Something bad people use!

Episode #207 was a treat. I love when it changes channels. It really gives an insight as to what insanity... probably... looks like. The whole thing is delightfully batshit crazy.

Well alrighty then. I sensed something was up with him this season but I wasn't quite expecting this.

I was taken by surprise by the twist, but with a few minutes reflection it actually made sense. My spidey sense went off when the group of white guys showed up to demand their bitcoin(s?) back, but I did not figure it out before the reveal.

Not quite a 5/7, but pretty close.

I'm having a real hard time with S2. I think I'm going to go out and get some prozac before watching the next episode.

FWIW, the aftershow on usanetwork.com is a pretty good way to try and keep your head in the game...just in case you lose your mind trying to keep up. ESPECIALLY after the last episode! :laughing

also...does anyone know why the Angela Jolie lookalike that likes to get her ass kicked is in the show? Other than eye candy I'm trying to figure out why the keep her in the show. The subplot involving her is taking way too long to develop. Kind of like a lot of the GOT characters.

Best episode of the season. This show is killer.

That was a good episode.

I just hope they can keep it up. They answer a few questions and add 3 more. They just keep turning up the dial and I am afraid they can go too far.

It's working though as I am chomping at the bit to find out what happens next.
