Episode #1.3

This is a confusing show. Is Mullen in lalaland, or is he playing a grand plan. He is getting information somehow, but it's almost like those guys who say God talked to them. The Reapers and Proteus have been fed to him.

So now the people closest to him (including a couple who are bonafide criminals) are running on the information he is feeding them. The Russians are supposed to be out.

Then we have an oligarch who is pulling strings. Roger is answering to several entities. He's starting to fall apart because of these powerful people. Evan Green is a thorn in the side but he isn't just unpopular with the political insiders--but the corporate as well.

One can't help but feel the parallels to the current state of our country and the dangers of the cyber-community. There is a lot of evil out there these days.

Ultimately, the question we wait for is whether our ex-president/DeNiro, is a positive force. Those medications are an interesting sidelight.

I was hoping the emergence of Connie Britton would spice things up but the more I watch this show it's just devolving from one dialogue laden scene to the next.

Too much talking, not enough action and a star studded cast can't help that.

Never mind that everything the show is trying to do between role of media, to internal govt instigators to domestic terrorism has been done before and better at that. Be it Homeland, The Americans or even more recently, The Diplomat. I don't know that I'm gonna finish this, if I do I'll report back, who knows maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised. DeNiro is my fave actor so I owe him that much 😎
