It’s probably an unpopular opinion but this is the best and most “Black Mirror” episode of series 4.

No other episodes bring new technology to the forefront like this. I think what I’m missing in this season and 5 is the feeling of dystopia is gone. The feeling it being realistic and in the not too distant future. This tech (that everyone is familiar with by now. We’ve seen Boston dynamics test their bots for years) has completely destroyed the world and it’s beautiful. This is a beautifully shot episode. The black and white scenery is taken in by the protagonists and viewer in the beginning. Something really bad has happened, but the show must go on, we both have to move through the shell of what many think to be the end of the black mirror timeline.

And it’s bleak, unforgiving, quiet, merciless, gritty, most of all NOVEL.

Everything I value in the series The other eps just have this horribly cheesy vibe season 4 and 5. Bandersnatch is unique at least… Expand
