That's the way black mirror works.

That's the way black mirror works.
But it would have horrible and unintended consequences!

I'm a big dummy and it drops tomorrow. I accidentally watched half of the past episode before I realized I had seen it

I'm a bigger dummy. I thought it came out at midnight, but it actually comes out at 2am CST, so I tried to make it till 2 to watch the first episode, but fell asleep at 1:45.

Only one I didn't care for was Crocodile. I thought Callister and Hang the DJ were the best, but they both deal with similar themes.

USS CAllister was the best, Hang the DJ was 2nd, Metalhead was the worst. The other 3 were pretty average as far as Black Mirror eps go.

The voice cameo at the end of USS Callister was awesome. Can't wait to crush another one tomorrow.

Just finished the fourth season, all pretty awesome and love the Netflix money really upping the production value. The running theme of 'cookies' and carbon copying yourself into code/computers is getting interesting. And I thought the Crocodile and Metalhead episodes were amazing television, even if they didn't focus as much on themes and questions.


Spoiler after finishing episode 6
Excited to see if they do anything else to tie these into a single world/timeline. Maybe some sort of grand finale?

I knew I recognized it, but couldnt pinpoint it immediately until I looked it. Makes sense because I think he and LandryLance are friends

I really liked USS callister (could be my favorite of the whole series), then got disappointed by the next two. Hang the DJ was pretty cool. I couldn't finish metal head, and I liked Black Museum enough- downsides to it are:
1) pain=boner guy story didn't do much for me, and the whole "trapped consciousness" concept was done already this same season with USS callister (and again in before in white christmas).

Ha. I had forgotten they worked together. Not sure how. When we heard his voice my and wife and I both looked at eachother and that "a ha" moment!

"I'm the king of space, b***h!"

I thought Black Museum was only okay because it indicated that most everything on Black Mirror has happened in a shared universe which is kinda neat.

The actual story itself of Black Museum was kinda meh.

I'm midway through Black Museum right now. Intense.

I think the Space Fleet episode was my favorite. Archangel was too predictable i thought.

Followed next in season 3 by one of the most uplifting and beautiful stories I have ever watched, San Junipero.

I actually liked the references to the previous shows.

I also liked the episode probably the best of season 4. I always like the twist endings, though.

Dear god this season sucked. Crocodile and USS Callister were somewhat redeeming qualities but the rest was just preaching at me. Every single episode ended in some sort of stupid social message I don't care to see. I'm watching Black Mirror. I want to feel like I need a shower after an episode, not an appointment to give a donation to the ACLU
CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

What was the message for Hang the DJ or metalhead? The only one that I thought had a clear message was Arkangel.

Ya know you don't need appointments to make a donation.

How so??? The only thing I can think of would be a message against torture in Black Museum. Though that episode felt like another version of White Christmas.

Electric Dreams appears to be Amazon's version of Black Mirror in case no one had shared that previously.

I get what this guy is saying, I'm tired of being pounded over the head with the crazy liberal agenda. Just a quick run down of some of the absurd liberal takes this season:

USS Callister - Slavery is bad
Arkangel - Social engineering and secretly drugging your children is bad
Crocodile - Murdering is bad
Hang the DJ - Using apps to meet people is good
Metalhead - Escaping murder-bots is good
Black Museum - eternal imprisonment and torture for the public's entertainment is bad.

Like, let's present both sides folks.
