Just finished the first episode of season 4 and wow it is really mind f**king and great. Don't know how much I can watch at once without feeling really paranoid but just wanted to see what everyone else thinks of it and share opinions.

Don't know how much I can watch at once without feeling really paranoid but just wanted to see what everyone else thinks of it and share opinions. Finished the first 5 and am onto 6. 1 is probably the strongest of the bunch so far, really enjoyed 3-5, 2 needed a bit more to it I think, the ending didn't really follow from the beginning.

Yeah just finished 2 and did enjoy it but felt something was missing when it ended compared to other episodes. Look forward to the rest and am really looking forward to watching 5 and 6. If you haven't watched it I would highly recommend it but it may be a little too dark for some people.

Can't wait to get started on this! I read a bit about the episode directed by Jodie Foster and am really excited to see that.

Ok so just finished all six episodes of the fourth season and I am very impressed. Enjoyed them all and they all had very different tones but for me some were better that others. For me my ranked order from last to most favourite ( it was very close I did like each of them for different reasons) 6- Arkangke 5-Metalhead 4-Crocodile 3-USS Callister 2-Hang the DJ 1- Black museum ok so this next part may have spoilers so do to want to ruin It for anyone {Spoiler - click to view} Looking online some people did t really like this season and I thinks it's because this season had episodes that were more straight through stories and had no real twist at the end making people feel a bit disappointed. I like doing that they did t stick to the formula and it did make for some interesting episodes and being able to stick to one theme. Looking online losts of people didn't really like Metalhead but I personally really enjoyed it . It was a very well shot and made episode and if I'm honest I had a little tear in my eye at the end. I also liked crocodile quite a lot which also people haven't seemed. Love but I just liked the tone of the episode and it reminded me a jpbkt of the film Under the Skin. My favourite episodes were the ones that did stick to the traditional black mirror formula though with having twists that really make you think and come as a surprise and Black museum had a ni d few eatser eggs.
I am already looking forward to season five and will probably post more of my thoughts when I have had time to think about it all

What’s the premise of this, for those of us who have never heard of it? Is it on Netflix?

What’s the premise of this, for those of us who have never heard of it? Is it on Netflix? It's hard to describe so I'll quote Wikipedia: "Black Mirror is a British science fiction anthology television series created by Charlie Brooker, with Brooker and Annabel Jones serving as the programme's showrunners. It centres on dark and satirical themes that examine modern society, particularly with regard to the unanticipated consequences of new technologies. Episodes are standalone works, usually set in an alternative present or the near future." It is in Netflix yeah.

Sci-fi.... that’s me out! That was my reaction when I first read about the show, but then I started watching and couldn't stop! It's a show that f*cks your mind. Not trying to convince you to watch, but some episodes that don't really fall into the sci-fi category are: National Anthem (series 1, ep 1), Shut Up and Dance (series 3, ep 3) and White Bear (series 2, ep 2).

Tomorrow, 8am, a Black Mirror “event”. It’s called Bandersnatch and it sounds like it’s going to be film-length. Also it’s rumoured that it’s going to be interactive where you choose what happens next.

Just watched ‘Bandersnatch’ - have always been a big black mirror fan. It always contains twists I wasn’t expecting and always makes you think about picture big ideals.
I found this episode so stressful, picking the storyline made it both thrilling but terrifying. Even if you tried to go down what you believe is the correct path you still feel sadistic for picking certain strands.
Major hats off to Netflix and Charlie Brooker - it really is a masterpiece in my eyes.

Its a concept that kids shows on Netflix have been using for a while.
