Mr Robot is a complete mindf**k of a show. Easily the most intellectually, religiously and ethically stimulating show I've kept up with.

I've watched the first episode of Daredevil, is it worth keeping up with?

The girl who was telling that guy to split and being so sad that then stole was a cold hearted bitch.

From a financial perspective definitely, irrelevant of the other persons move you are at least as well off or better off by stealing. But you're known as a **** forever.
That's why what the guy did (saying he'd steal but split the cash after the show if the other guy split) was so clever. It turned the scenario on it's head so the other person was always as well off or better off by splitting and mathematically should have split (loke he did).
But then again, he didn't factor in the fact that some people would be pissed at trying to be tricked and would steal to get some payback. He got lucky that the other guy was mathematically rational.


No problem. Probably the best tv show I've watched in the last 3 or 4 years. A real masterclass and can't wait for season 2

Na, it makes sense to split tbh. I would do what that guy did on golden balls and say that I would share the money after the show.

It's just a variation of the Prisoner's Dilemma which is really interesting - I've had to read entire books on this area of game theory.

Logically, it's always best to steal regardless of what the other person does. The issue is that if your opponent steals, you'll go away with £0 regardless of what you choose to do. Why not spite them and steal yourself?

People often use that to rationale their decision to steal, saying that they knew the opponent would steal and they didn't want them to get away with it. There are so many variations of Prisoner's Dilemma - Goldenballs is one of the most basic but look how tense and interesting it gets both socially and financially?

And yeah, that woman who stole less than £3 is an absolute bitch to be honest. Still the logical choice though...

Has anyone seen master of none ?

Yeah, it's a 7/10 programme imo. Better out there but worth a go if you've got nothing else to watch

I don't see it as cold hearted or a dick move to steal tbh. It's just playing the game well. The word steal throws people off, nothing is actually being stolen.

Brb the honourable thing for football teams to do is draw every game so they're not taking money away from the other team and players

I've watched the first episode thought it was alright tbh. Need to know if anything interesting actually happens in Better call Saul in s2 first though.

Zac Goldsmith (Tory MP going for London mayor) seems an utter bellend of the highest order - he's on Cameron's level on the c**t scale imo

Better Call Saul is dinner TV, not high quality enough to just sit and watch it

Will try Mr Robot at some point

Really isn't

If every team drew every game 0-0 then everyone would be league champions?

Probably the only way we'd even win a title to be honest...

It's been a much more eventful season compared to season 1. Id say it's definitely been better so far but there are only two episodes left. The show is now more about both Mike and Jimmy though, instead of just the latter. I'd just wait two weeks until all episodes are out then binge watch the entire season in a few sittings.

Yeah, the Punisher aka Shane from TWD is GOAT in s2.

Breaking Bad was overrated as well tbh. Not in the same league as The Wire or Mad Men.

One of the few drama series that actually did a good job with how it ended.
