In fact when one of my friends suggested me this show, and I wasn't really into it. Somehow on an average nothing-less-than-boring kind of a day I tumbled upon this.
Lemme be frank enough that at first I thought "What was all about that boasting?!". I continued binging with the same doubt - until it was the last quarter of 2nd season. There onwards - Mr. Elliot and Mr. Robot have given me one of the best rollercoaster rides.
Just go for it. That's the least you can do about this show. And when you're finished, look in the mirror - you might as well see a part of 'Elliot' in you!
