Thanks to USA Network, we'll get more "Mr. Robot" episodes this coming season. The cable channel has increased the season two order for the critically-acclaimed series from 10 to 12 episodes, which will all be directed by series creator Sam Esmail.

Additionally, the network has ordered a live aftershow that will follow the two-hour premiere in July. The hourlong aftershow titled "Hacking Robot" still has no host attached to it. Aliyah Silverstein will executive produce the aftershow.

The expanded sophomore season doesn't come as a surprise since the show has become critics' darling and a new hit following its debut last summer.

Editors' Pick

"Mr. Robot" returns on Wednesday, July 13 at 10/9c with two back-to-back episodes which will be presented with limited commercial breaks.
