People are seeing it early and I'm just happy that the show is finally available via On Demand.
Hopefully the season 2 bluray price will have tumbled down to around $25 (or less) by black friday.sidburyjr said:I can't wait until Season 2 blu gets really cheap.
As a computer geek, there can't be "too much about the machine" for me personally.A little of her goes a long way. She makes the story too much about the machine. Also, none of our main characters could ever form an alliance with her, could they? She was just too evil before.
Redemption for Harold too as originally he didn't want to help people the machine noted were in danger. His late partner was the one that started that task.Walter Kittel said:As a computer geek, there can't be "too much about the machine" for me personally.
I would argue that one of the more emotionally resonant themes of the show has to do with redemption -
Redemption of Reese - Harold gave him a purpose after he flamed out due to feelings of guilt and loss.
Redemption of Fusco - A guy who made some bad choices and has a second chance.
Redemption of Samantha Groves (Root) - Well we'll see. It is a longer journey for her no doubt but with enough interaction with The Machine she may yet change her methodology.
- Walter.
Yes, they do and I was happy with the final outcome last night as I thought that person was a scumbag.NeilO said:Intense episode tonight and not too much other than main story. I guess we have a new "enemy" on our hand.
Yes, I think he's a mole, most will assume he's a mole for HR. He probably is, but he could be a mole for Elias.jcroy said:Wonder if the rookie cop that is partnered with Carter, is a mole/informant for some powerful higher-up.
Based on very little, I'm thinking he's a red herring mole. Carter (and the audience) will eventually suspect him but she (and we) will be wrong and that'll probably have fatal consequences for him.Robert Crawford said:Yes, I think he's a mole, most will assume he's a mole for HR.

That is a good point, but the show essentially did that with Cal Beecher last year; so will they go to that scenario again or put a spin on it? Hard to say, but in any event it gives the viewers something else to consider which adds to the texture of the show, at least for me. I really do enjoy the way the show handles multiple plot lines and how they weave in and out of one another.Based on very little, I'm thinking he's a red herring mole.

You're right, they probably won't go down similar story terrain. It'd be kinda funny if he was just a normal cop with no agenda but the audience spends the rest of the series waiting for him to do something evil.Walter Kittel said:That is a good point, but the show essentially did that with Cal Beecher last year; so will they go to that scenario again or put a spin on it?
