this show gives you a whole new outlook on what our future could hold. I saw 1x03 before google glass was announced and then hearing about glass got me scared as to our potential possible future going down a similar route.

Every episode brings up another topic for thought into our future and morals as a society. S1 is for sure the most memorable but each individual episode is worthy of attention. It really makes you take a deep hard look at what our society is becoming at the cost of technology, to keep advancing and the problems we could face as a society because of this thirst we have for comfort.

the only downside i found watching this series is you have to concentrate to watch it, or you will miss something, and the early parts of the episodes can seem boring at first watch, but watching them over after you have seen the whole episode you will have that "AHHH" moment.

if you are after a series to make your head-spin and bring about plenty of debate between friends and family then this is the show for you.

It is a brilliant thought provoking series and i really hope they make more!

The synopsis of this series is "A television anthology series that shows the dark side of life and technology.". Succinct but accurate. Season 1 and 2 are so dark it is unsettling, Every episode a brilliantly crafted gem of dark crystal, a future reflection of our dark image. Terrifying but hypnotic. The talent is a showcase of the UK's best young actors.. I give it the first two seasons a 10 out of 10 for it's incredibly creative concepts and writing (and talent), but beware, it's creepy.
Just finished the third season, and after a shaky start it flowered into brilliance again. And don't miss the Christmas Special "White Christmas". That Netflix adds it as the 4th episode of Season 2. Really good, if incredibly eerie, TV watching.
Season 4 begins in Janauary 2017!
I've just begun the 4th season of this series. I have been a fan from the very beginning. Each episode is stand alone but all of them revolve around the series theme of life darkly altered by technology. The writing is brilliant, and I don't say that lightly. Some episodes are truly perfect while a few don't quite hit the mark, but I give the series a 10 (truly ingenious) out of 10, and, it is one of my top ten TV series of all time. This particular episode opens the season with high marks for its tongue in cheek take on a TV SciFi classic combined with swirling dark undertones that lie just beneath a mundane reality. It begins as quirky and ends with a brilliant (there is that word again) resolve. This first episode I give a 9 (you guessed it - brilliant) out of 10. The series is considered a UK production, produced now by Netflix, but has episodes shot all over - the UK, Toronto:flag_ca:, Iceland, Spain, etc., with an international cast from both sides of the pond. Have I gushed enough? Needless to say, I will be binging this season. ****Binge complete - with the exception of episode 5, I was completely satisfied by this season. The writing is intelligent (if somewhat fond of expletives and sex), the acting is top notch and the twists at the end of each episode is that "just a little extra". Well done! Can't wait for the next season - thank you Netflix for rescuing this series.****

Wonderful series. There are very good chapters and others that are not so good but it is worth it.

If you want to lose your mind, I suggest you watch this series. This series is a mind-blowing series where each episode has a different story that revolves around the nightmare that technology can give. Since each episode has a different story, you can watch it in any order but I still suggest you watch it in order. Kudos to the writers of Black Mirror. Still one of the best series I have watched in my entire life.

I think this is one of the best shows ever made, I love it. However the ones made in Britain are far superior. I could do without episodes such as "Metalhead".

Totally not what one expects. A good change from the usual drama series.

This is a great show. Especially the first episode was mind boggling.

This is truly a remarkable show that makes you think about life and technology, as they are weaved stronger and stronger together. While most of it is for the betterment of humankind in the grand scheme of things, there are sides to it that can be a nightmare.

This is a series i won't soon forget and will watch many more times in the years to come. It's really a shame only 3 episodes have been made because this could have become a hit as big as other shows in the same genre as The X-Files or The Twilight Zone.
