Dreal: yeah humans ended pretty darn well though. But was a short season :/

You will want to watch the 2 season series that the shorter condensed English remake was based on - Äkta människor

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Humans

for a comparison of the two

doozy: Mr Robot is great, I do agree with others that it 'could' be a like Fight Club esq in that Christian Slater character is potentially not real, they have played that well so far in the story line. The thought processes are well done too. Last ep was certainly a stop and watch rather than on in the background doing something else.

did not like ending (in that I didn't like what happened, episode was great).

evil corp guy and his wife are sociopaths. The swapping languages thing is amazing to make them seem "different".

(very) late to the party, I know, but I finally got around to watching this series this week when I saw it was on Lightbox.
I thought is was excellent. Like the casting, cinematography, soundtrack, storyline! ... and refreshing to have a series that seemed to have at least one "whoa, didn't see that coming" moments in most episodes.

The final was kinda disappointing - really enjoyed the structure (wake up x days later, no idea what happened) - but the end end was kinda eh..

I agree. It got a bit annoying around episode 8 and the final was a bit of a let down. Will have to see where it goes next season. Definately will be on my watch list but not at the top.

They both speak fluently in their own language. The wife is danish and the guy is swedish. As a norwegian I can understand both of them, although danish can be harder (for me) to understand than swedish (probably because I was raised on swedish children TV)

I was totally bummed by the last episode. Very disappointing IMHO.

It's unfortunate that season 2 is only next year :(
