    While this season tries to tap into that original Black Mirror techno flair, none of the five episodes rise to the occasion of the horrors we’ve seen in 2020 and beyond, also failing to live up to the high standard the series has set for itself.

    I just now watched the trailer for season 6 on Netflix and it just floored me. So, my rating is for that trailer. I'll come back after I'veI just now watched the trailer for season 6 on Netflix and it just floored me. So, my rating is for that trailer. I'll come back after I've watched the entire season 6 and adjust my rating.

    I've always appreciated Black Mirror's wide-ranging views. The episodes are very diverse in their genres and viewpoints - so, it is very difficult to apply a rating to the entire series or just one season. I would think most individuals would find at least one episode from each season that resonates with them. I think it would take a very eclectic personality that could appreciate all or even most of the episodes in a single season.

    I have watched all of the season 6 episodes. I'm going to leave my rating at 8 because I think the writing elevates the series above what I would normally rate a 6 or 7 that any Netflix series with a hefty budget and skilled staff working on the technical quality.

    I find the casting and acting to be good - especially in the last episode.

    The last episode is a anthological twist that is controversial that suggests that Charlie Booker has somewhat tired of the specific genre of Black Mirror. I find that hard to believe because there or so many sociological issues that modern technology has pushed into the fore in just the last year or two that would make for extremely compelling story lines.    … Full Review »

    If someone writes the word like "woke" which is a meaningless right-wing culture war buzzword that they can't even define in their review anybody can just disregard their opinion instantly writing right-wing buzzword and having zero media literacy is not a show analysis it's a joke and a circus if you review bomb at least not be lazy enough and justify your views rationally which you can't.    … Full Review »

    I still remember the first and second season, this is not black mirror for me. This seems some soft ideology propaganda.
