"White Famous" is most notable for its title, which represents the career goal outlined for a rising African-American comedian by his agent.

"Mr. Robot" was a comet, blazing brightly in its riveting first season at the risk of crashing and burning in its second. While that flame is unlikely to be fully rekindled, version 3.0 marks a welcome return to form, one that tightens the story but still seems disarmingly weird and appropriately suited to the current political and cultural moment.
