> Why not a character like Mike from "Suits"?

Suits already has a character like Mike from Suits. The characters name is, surprisingly, named Mike.

If Elliot were to be like Mike from Suits, Mr Robot would need to change the name of the show to Suits.

And it follows that the space of sitcoms is a singleton.

That explains a lot.

I dunno, I certainly like the show. Maybe it's just the general malaise I'm feeling, but it's certainly poking at many of the things I feel are wrong in the world. God knows, if it were possible to accomplish what they did in season 1 I would have been more than on board.

Because suits is laughably unrealistic?
