Mr Robot is legit one of the most cerebral shows I've seen. The hacking scenes? Zero plot holes, they actually make sense. You can tell the writers did their homework. CGI is minimal but effective, not flashy like some Bollywood crap trying to flex vfx budget. Elliot's internal monologues are peak writing, dark, raw, and painfully logical. The whole surveillance capitalism theme hits different in 2024. The only reason it's not a 5 is that season 3 went a bit off the rails with the fsociety nonsense. Still, top tier for a tech bro like me. not mid at all.

Dark is the only sci-fi show that doesn't treat time travel like magic. Finally, a show with actual logic. The script is airtight, every character decision makes sense in the causal loop. no plot holes, just pure deterministic chaos. The German aesthetic adds to the grim tone, no flashy CGI nonsense. They use practical effects where possible, and the visuals are clean but not overdone. This is how you do high-concept on a tv budget. Most indian sci-fi shows look like bhoot police compared to this. three seasons, zero filler. not mid, not even peak tv, this is next level. If you like your narratives dark and tight, this one's a no-brainer.
