Sending Off 'Mr. Robot' In Style; Team Reveals The Plans

It was impossible for many to imagine that a hacker-drama would go on to become a sensation as much that it is loved by all. However, with some great writing, phenomenal acting performances, and mind-boggling twists, Mr. Robot went on to become one of the most successful and critically acclaimed shows on the tube.

The fourth and last season of the show will begin airing in the first week of October and while the excitement is palpable, there is also that moment of sadness that the show is ending. In a recent interview with Variety, the team of Mr. Robot talked about how are they planning to send-off the show in style.

“We calculated how to get to that endpoint in an organic way that didn’t feel like we were treading water or stretching things out and that’s how we left the story: by letting the story tell us this was the last season,” Esmail says. “There were ways to reset and regroup while going in different situations and on these tangents to explore other ideas, but none of that felt right or as interesting to us.”

The result is an expanded 12-episode Christmas-themed run that creatively spans a week of time within the story — a nod to British series that typically end with a holiday installment. “The way it speaks to our culture and our increased reliance on technology has always been very present and very fascinating,” says Alex Sepiol, USA network’s executive vice president of scripted development. “Sam’s voice and his whole vision for this show have been one that reflects our world, but obviously heightens it in a really interesting way. I still remember the first time I read the script, and the ‘F— Society’ monologue that Elliot’s character had was revelatory. It was a voice that just wasn’t on the air or anywhere in TV or film at the time, and in a lot of ways still isn’t.”

Just in case you have no idea about the show and need one selling point to watch it; the phenomenal Rami Malek stars as the leading man (yes, the same guy who won the Oscar this year.)

For the Indian viewers, the show is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video.
