TV Recap: Mr. Robot Season 4, Episode 3

Mr. Robot continues to deliver all the punches three episodes in. “Forbidden” opens with the tale of how Whiterose came to be. In the early 80s, he is seen mocking IBM consultants in his native Mandarin to his colleague Peng Chen. In the hotel room, it is revealed that Zhang and Chen are lovers. He hopes that Zhang becomes the Ambassador to the US so they can start living as their true selves: two men in love. This prompts Zhang to present her true self to him, dressed in a wig and her mother’s dress, to which Chen’s response is “you’re beautiful.”

New Show Review: Dead to Me

Okay, so technically Dead to Me isn’t a new show, but when I started it many months ago it was! Even though this show only consisted of ten half hours segments, I got half way through when I decided I needed to watch all of Stranger Things and Animal Kingdom, along with shoving in some MTV reality trash. And so here we are, finally finished with this dark comedy, and quite frankly it was a delight! Not the best show I’ve ever seen, but some quality acting and A+ delivery.
