The acclaimed first season had a streamlined story, which was ditched for more labyrinthine plot in Season 2. “Season three finds both Elliot and Mr. Robot more focused in their efforts to get back to the way things used to be,” says Alan Sepinwall. He adds: “Based on the new season’s first four episodes, both character and creator have mixed success in their revised missions.”
