This series is a first of its kind. I have seen Art House films, yet before this never an Art House Television Series. It is a risky move and the rewards are bountiful. I started with the pilot of Mr. Robot 3 weeks ago. I binged and finished the finale just now. This is my favourite show of anything ever and I wept twice watching Season 4. This is high art. The Cinematography, Score, Editing, Acting, Direction, Humour, Characters, Plot and Themes are all immaculate. Everyone involved should be proud of what they helped create, especially my boy Sam Esmail. A visionary who can challenge the viewer and himself with: 1. An episode that appears as a oner 2. An episode with dialogue starting and ending the episode (the slices of bread that reference what is between them) and the meat of the episode being hacking action without dialogue 3. A Bottle Episode that is the best episode of the series for me, that is split into 5 acts with 5 characters and is able to have the feel of a stage play while delivering immaculate direction, acting and cinematography 4. A lost walk through the forest being one of the best episodes of television & the series 5. An ending that subverts expectations, makes sense and is incredibly satisfying given the information we get up until the twist of the final 3 episodes 6. Many episodes that have no "gimmick" and are among the best that television has seen to this point in time and for a long time going forward. We get shows like this but once in a lifetime Themes of mental illness, grief, sadness & loneliness are often used and add to the authenticity the show portrays. The viewer is a character that our protagonist refers to in the first person and it works beautifully without feeling stupid or pretentious. I was alive on this earth during the time when this show was aired and that is a beautiful fact. This will be my favourite show until my last breath Hello & Goodbye Friend Bonsoir Elliot Farewell Kiddo
