Black Mirror

This has to be, hands down, my favorite new find on Netflix. I know it's been around for a few years, but I'm only now catching up.

If you're not familiar, it's an anthology similar in style to the Outer-limits, or The Twilight Zone.

Anyway, just thought some of you might dig this show.

It recently had a christmas special, I've yet to watch it

I'm a massive fan of Charlie Brooker, you should check out his Screenwipe series, full episodes can be found on Youtube

Just got into this show myself. Big fan of the first 2 episodes so far.

Oh really? Thanks! I've only had the chance to watch season 1 and 2 on Netflix, and it left me wanting more.
I'll scan youtube for Screenwipe.

I'm hooked, for sure.
With some series I can binge a whole season, but with these, after each ep, I want to "digest" a bit before watching the next. Do you find that?

Might be just me.

Finally got to watch the 3rd episode. By far my favorite so far. Really amazing episode.

I hope the 2nd season is the same quality of S1.

I saw the first episode and really disliked it. I felt like it was really heavy handed with the whole "hey guys, doesn't the internet and social media just suuuuck?". Yeah, yeah, heard it a bunch before. I get that's the point, but it wasn't for me.

I guess I also just don't find sex with a pig funny, even in a "dark humor" kind of way.

I don't think we were meant to find the pig sex funny. Maybe you missed the bigger picture.

And clearly, it wasn't that far from reality.

Yeah, I did. Like I said, not for me.

They sometimes have the awful art school obvious "hidden" message pushed in, but they get me more often then most programs. Which isn't that often lol.

I saw every season 6 episode's twist coming a mile away except for Mazey Day. Holyyy... Made me so f*cking giddy when I realized!
