What do you think? Have you watched the first season of the Mr. Robot TV series? Did you catch the early release of the season two premiere online?
About the official description,it should be noted that USA Network rarely airs any TV-MA programming (if at all). Some of USA Network’s past drama series, like “Monk”and “Psych” were rated TV-PG, while later ones, such as “Suits”, were rated TV-14. It turns out that the TV-MA rating applies to the season 2 premiere’s original airing, and the reruns on late Wednesday and Thursday, but a Saturday-morning (July 16) rerun of the episode was TV-14.
