They're at least self-aware, in one scene the fsociety crew is watching "Hackers" and one of them comments "I wonder what will ruin the next generations perception of hacker culture" or something like that. Not my favorite rendition (full disclosure: "Hackers" is my favorite), but they do really drive home the "otherness", which is the core of any "hacker culture" story.

I find the Australian mini series "The Code" much more realistic.

  That looks really interesting, thanks for the recommendation. Do you know off hand if it is available on Netflix or Amazon?

    I think I saw it on Netflix... Or was it Amazon?

    I saw it on netflix...and just checked, its still available on netflix. Do note, I'm U.S. based, so not sure if you're outside U.S. Also, I give it a thumbs-up; not Mr.Robot but still a well done series (I think anyways).

I thought nothing would top Sneakers...Mr Robot is my new fav.

  Sacrilege, nothing comes close to Sneakers for me. It also is still relevant today given what Snowden has told us.

    Maybe it's just because I haven't seen it in several years. I'll watch it again this weekend :)

      I watched it again a few years ago. It doesn't hold up great, but it's still fun.

23 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0126765/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0126765/) is also entertaining and quite believable (if from another time)

My favorite hacker reference so far in Season 2 was the Watch Dogs one (I hope a lot of you caught that :)
