26 minutes in, of believable techno-jargon, then a bunch of so called techs in the security industry started explaining the most basic of tech terms to each other. And then the tech-bullshit'o'meter started to head towards 24 level rubbish.

Shame, I know script writers and directors have to take a bit of artistic license to make drama, but yet again The Matrix is more realistic than a TV series based in present day.

They probably had a security expert whose day job was writing PHP.

lol, my missus often gives me a stare when I'm half way through a sigh when  an "expert" is using a computer on TV, probably best we give this a miss then ;)

It's a shame about this irritating middle 10 minutes of rubbish techno-junk, the rest of it was still interesting. I think I'll give the second episode a go.

Its very very dull unfortunately and the lead is so annoying to me anyway his constant chatter and telling us what and why he is doing something is a waste....cant see me staying with it even though i enjoyed the pilot.

Seen episodes 2 & 3 now, no repeat of the disaster that was the "made up rubbish to excite our IT illiterate audience", if you don't like the first person narration then don't bother carrying on with it.

But I think it might be safe to give it a go admars!

Just watched episode 9, still quite interesting although 9 was in places a tiny bit disjointed. Oh and (BIG spoiler alert, DO NOT get curious until you've seen Ep 9)...

SPOILER:
A huge nod to Fight Club with the music near the end, not surprising considering they sort of ripped off a major part of that movies plot. :)

I really am enjoying this series at the moment - not d/l the last three as not been at home very often lately. But can't wait to see 7, 8 & 9.

It's quite dark and drawn out in some areas but I like the monotonous narration!




I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which i`m dying are the best i`ve ever had.

Finale postponed till 2nd Sep due to the shootings in the US. Apparently it contains a scene similar to the events.

Just watched the finale, and...

SPOILER:
Really don't feel the whole imaginary dad thing was very good, and looking back I wonder if earlier interactions would make sense if I saw them again knowing this. Very messy finale episode, almost as if they were trying to leave multiple unanswered questions for Season 2.
