Mr. Robot Season 2 Teaser Trailer: “We Have Other Battles To Fight”

Like many of you, I was sucked intoMr. Robot, a television show which I’ve described asHackersmeetsFight Club, by way ofThe Social Network. It was surprising that a show of this quality could be a USA Network original series (and that’s not a slam from someone who doesn’t know that the channel has some good shows — I watchSuits).
