NFT: Black Mirror Discussion

two are White Christmas and Shut Up and Dance

San Junipero
White Christmas
White Bear (just really f-ed up)
The Entire History of You
Metalhead
Metalhead - ( New Window )

and the one about the Bee's.

Anyone else realize how much of the series is about getting into peoples minds?

So far my top 3 in no order would be:

The National Anthem
Shut Up and Dance
The Entire History of You

The Waldo Moment was without a doubt the worst episode. Extremely annoying.

White Bear would have been great with the reveal that she was being punished and ending it there. Not starting over again. How much time can this amount of people spend on one person? What about the millions of others in the country?

San Junipero was kind of cool, but very boring overall in my opinion.

Hated in the Nation was cheesy.

one of the best single episodes of TV I've ever seen. Easily my favorite BM episode.

hasn't been mentioned. I think its the most relevant episodoe they have ever made.

where different episodes call to different people, much like the Twilight Zone. Love it

She is a great actress.

Hang the DJ was good huh?

Not my favorite one, but def in my top 5.

And I liked the one with the bees... haha

white christmas
white bear
shut up and dance
Fifteen Million Merits

not sure i can pick a 5th as it'd be a tie between many. to me those 4 stand above the rest

Men Against Fire was excellent as well.

It doesn’t matter the order we choose to watch these right?

I loved Hang the DJ. I kept thinking to myself why would he even want her after she was pounded by dozens of dudes. I guess that's the reality now with dating apps and tinder but it turned out to be a simulation anyway. Also what would have happened if they had the 5 year relationship?

So many twists.

can pretty much watch in any order. You can see quite a few connections between episodes as you go along though. Not enough where order would matter.

I thought it was Meh, didn't really surprise me.

To the post above, Hang the DJ was great too, right around my top 5 for sure.

Hey guys, new here long time reader, first time poster. Have to chime in on this and say black museum, white Christmas, USS Callister, Hang the DJ were among my faves

We had binged-watched over several days, and kind of burned ourselves out. Now, going back through to see which ones we missed, skipped or maybe fell asleep on (it happens). lol

Black Museum is really interesting. I liked the characters. When I say liked ... I thought they were fun to watch. Didn't so much like the curator. lol

but I really like White Christmas.

Yeah that was really good. I mean it really did portray how dating in this century is like.

I hope Netflix brings it back for a 5th season even if the 3rd and 4th seasons were a slight downgrade in quality.

My top 5:

(1) White Christmas
(2) 15,000,000 Merits
(3) Entire History of You
(4) Hang the DJ
(5) San Junipero

Honorable Mentions: White Bear, Black Museum, Nosedive, Be Right Back

I thought season 3 & 4 were way better then season 1 &2.

season 1 and 2 were the best. Very well told stories, still anshowntrying to improve itself and rely on great story telling since the budgets weren’t big. I still really liked seasons 3 and 4 but the duds were obvious.

Watched San Junipero as my first episode and liked it. Certainly didn’t prepare me for the next two I watch, The Entire History of You and Shut Up and Dance. Tough to just fall right asleep after the latter.

Season 4 peat 1 with the video game. Blown away. Definitely plan to dive in more

No idea how peat got typed
