black mirror has evolved because there are so many shows these days focused on a dystopian tech society. We'll probably see more positivity. More focus on the storytelling than the twist. Which may work because Charlie Brooker is a pretty terrific storyteller.

Good God this season is trash. All 3 episodes were pure garbage...worst three by far.

Oh bummer. I've only seen the Miley one which, near as I could tell, had nothing other than Miley Cyrus being in it. Just stupid bad. Was hoping the others were better.

Striking Vipers is.. well it's like an intentional gender inverted rehash of San Junipero. Kind of.

If you watch Striking Vipers with the idea in your head that it is Falcon...its really amusing.

I feel like Striking Vipers should have been one of the "ok" episodes of a much longer season with many much better episodes. I've only seen small clips of the Miley Cyrus one and I already feel like it's a stupid rehash of the Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana back story that Miley wants to tell everyone over and over again. Is the other episode any good?

It had kind of a nice slow burn going on at first but it never really picked up into anything above average. |

I'm not falling for it again.
I'm intrigued by high concept shit like this, but I'll be damned if every season isn't 1 good episode and a bunch of snore inducing sleep aids. |

Bandersnatch > Striking Vipers > Smithereens though I haven't watched the other one.

When you have to preface with shit like "don't start with this episode or this one...Or this one...Or this one....Or this one..." in a series with limited content....That's not a good thing folks.

Because it's an anthology series where one episode (largely) has no relationship to other ones.

But when over half the episodes are regarded as pure shit?
