When I first started watching it I thought it was a story about 4 psychopaths, and in a sense initially it was. Joe, Cameron, Donna and to an extent Gordon destroyed everything around themselves in pursuit of that one big idea.


In the end, they all though rediscovered their humanity (Ironic given the end). Extremely well acted and written with sharp dialogue, and one of the most satisfying endings that you could ask for from a series like this.


It was also cool to see the writers take on the evolution of the PC and how the Internet evolved.

Thank you for the recommendation. Really enjoyed it.
