I will never look at bacon the same way.

Been suggesting that show to everyone I know for the past year. Its the modern day twilight zone.

I wanna say Hayley Atwell shows off some really nice cleavage in one episode.

She sure does. Her sex scene acting is always really good.

Bump

I watch the first episode. I was engaged the whole time, but I can't believe they actually went through with it. It was alittle too much for me to be honest.
For those that seen all the episodes, do the other three have that much gross factor? Or will I lose my cookies watching the others?

What's it about

It's kind of a commentary on the effed up-ness of society. It's hard to explain since each episode is totally unrelated to the others.

The first one is totally crazy, so keep going after that one even if it weirds you out. The white bear one is my favorite.

I thoroughly enjoyed the episodes on Netflix.

It's basically the Twilight Zone, but British...and focused on modern & slightly future technology. The episodes are not connected in any way, just like the Twilight Zone.

And by the way, I hate British shows because I struggle to understand British accents, but Black Mirror isn't bad at all. I never found the accents too distracting even though I usually do.

The episode about the biking for credits is my favorite, I starting raging like the character when he snapped. That would absolutely suck to go through.... And the ending was so fitting...

I know it gets tagged as "British twilight zone" There have been a lot of shows that have held the title of "like twilight zone"
What makes this one "like twilight zone" shock endings? Time Travel? Aliens?

It's mostly how each episode points at an ugly aspect of our society, but uses a fantastical or extreme example of that aspect to make the viewer uncomfortable, but at that same time force them to realize that while the specifics of the plot seem farfetched the issue being addressed is very real and current.
