    The season premieres of Mr. Robot and The Walking Dead are at the same time tonight. Which to watch, which to record?

    Doesn't matter to me, I don't get to see ANY tv shows until the following day when they become available on Hulu. Could not see paying the extra $50/mth for TV and channels we never even watch. A lot more ecconomical to just pay for Hulu and Netflix and get all the entertainment we need. As for local news and such, I can get all that with a paper clip stuck into the coax jack on the back of my TV. :)

    Mr. Robot. I gave up on The Walking Dead a long time ago.

    The walking dead came on first, so I watched it, then recorded Mr Robot. The show is interesting to watch, however it has taken such a strange turn each season. I'm hoping the writer has a complete story to line fleshed out, with a good resolution. I'd hate it to turn into another Lost, and receive a silly ending because the writers and actors were burned out.

    Sam Esmail (Mr. Robot's creator and show runner) has said the show was initially intended to be a feature film, and he's had an ending in mind from the start.

    Yeah, I'm on contract for another couple of months. It's time to
    re-evaluate cable.

    I realized that I missed out on a lot of Season 3 - I'd forgotten
    about some of the twists. I did like season 1/2 more than season 3,
    hope for some salvation in season 4.

    I like to watch the show after it's recorded so I can blast through advertisements. This is also one of those shows where you have to keep an
    eye out for subtle things. Some of the dialog can be very low or soft, hard
    to hear. Some shows I pay half attention to, but not this one.
