Mr. Robot Season 3 Episode 3 - Legacy (Spoilers)




Season 3 so far has been outstanding. With three episodes in, this Tyrell centric, all flashback episode that finally giving us answers to what happened on the night of the hack and what happened to Tyrell, as well as providing a backstory for the new character, Irving.

Honestly this show really confuses the hell out of me sometimes, but that's what the show is supposed to do. Which is actually one of the reasons why I like this show. It's so different compared to other shows that I've watched. That being said, I was left pretty confused after the season one finale and wondered what happened on the Night of the hack and Tyrell. I assumed dead, until towards the end of the second season, but like Elliot, was wondering if he was real.

I feel like I can understand Tyrell now, after going through such great character development. It reminded me a bit of Jaime Lannister's journey back to King's Landing with Brienne of Tarth. What I think is funny is that I've gone from hating Tyrell, to hoping he doesn't get arrested. It's just amazing how there was so much character development, that was enough to make me like him, all in just one episode. 

I like the Wallace Shawn cameo, during the questioning scene. It was good to see Wallace Shawn acting again. It was interesting and intense to watch. It starting showing Tyrell's character evolve a little as well as learning a little bit more about him. 

This episode also provided a tragic backstory for Bobby Canavale's mysterious, yet interesting character, Irving that his wife took his kids and leave. What was sad was that he gave away his #1 Dad travel coffee cup. But apart from being a coffee cup collector, it showed that he met Tyrell and Elliot (Mr. Robot) on the night of the hack and he knew Cisco. 

Overall this was another solid episode indeed. Despite it entirely being a flashback and didn't move the present day plot forward, this episode provided us with information we needed to know, making us look forward to next week episode. I can't wait.

8 Overlooked Cartoon Network Shows

Whenever we talk about Cartoon Network Shows, often that is mentioned are Steven Universe, Adventure Time, Regular Show or beloved Childhood Classics such as Ed, Edd N Eddy, Dexter's Laboratory, Powerpuff Girls, etc. Here is a list of underrated Cartoon Network Shows. Class of 3000 This show was great. I remember playing the Class of 3000 Funkbox game on the Cartoon Network website. This show ran from 2006 - 2008 but unfortunately it was cancelled due to a lawsuit filed by Timothy McGee on alleged copyright claims against Andre 3000. Well at least we have the Funkbox game, if that, still exist.   Mike, Lu and Og This show is so sadly forgotten. A lot people found this cartoon boring, but not me, I actually loved it! But of course, the last time I saw this show, I was six, yet I remember some episodes like the jujubombs, rollerskates and baseball. Tell me again why people thought this show was boring? Time Squad I'ts go time! I absolutely LOVED...

Narcos Season 3 - Entertaining, Engaging and Addictive just as the first two seasons

Even without Wagner Moura's portrayal of Paolo Escobar, season three of Narcos is still just as entertaining, engaging and addictive as the first two seasons, that unfolds the Cali Cartel and The Godfathers' reign in Columbia during the 1990s. Season Three started off slow. The first three episodes were slow, but episode four was when the plot thickens. Gilberto's arrest, being a game changing moment for the Cali Cartel as Miguel Rodriguez and his Joffrey Baratheon/Ramsay Bolton like son, David started killing off men that failed them along with their families. This was the definitive moment for Jorge, to make the risky decision to secretly work with the DEA to save his family, keeping us on the edge of our seats. While the complexity of Pena is still being in play, as he often reminds everyone that he is no hero, referring back to what he did in last season, where he went to Los Pepes to aide them in capturing Escobar and the Median Cartel. This time, Pena is car...
