[I like this flawed but courageous show. The thinly-veiled Enron/'Evil' Corp sock puppet and the Guy Falks/Monopoly Man mask analogies should be apparent to even the least informed among us. Canceling the finale is curious—jest say'in. Can't wait to see the finale. Maybe Elliot's dramatic angst is an accidental new "Lone Gunman" in-the-making? Whatever... —chris :cool: ]

"USA Network has postponed tonight’s scheduled season finale of hacker drama series “Mr. Robot” for a week because the episode includes a scene with similarities to the real-life murders that occurred on live TV this morning in Virginia.

"'Out of respect to the victims, their families and colleagues, and our viewers, we are postponing tonight’s episode. Our thoughts go out to all those affected during this difficult time,' USA said in a statement."
