    Trash. It felt like they asked a bunch of 6th graders to write the show and produced it with a budget of $35,000. No originality, lame and predictable twists which lead to dreadfully boring episode after episode. Don't waste your time if you have even a couple brain cells left, otherwise you can kiss them goodbye afterwards.

    These episodes don't have much in common with what I have known Black Mirror for. Seems to be branded as "Black Mirror just to capitalize on the name and not in order to resume the speculative fiction that has been so thoughtful in this great series.

    What the hell happened? The show has metaphorically fallen off a cliff. I want to talk to Charlie Booker and ask him how the hell things have gone so sideways. How involved is he in this? Is Netflix pushing him to add political undertones or in the case of "Demon 79", overt political overtones of anti-white and anti conservative messaging. I'm so sick of wokeness ruining Hollywood.

Is Netflix pushing him to add political undertones or in the case of "Demon 79", overt political overtones of anti-white and anti conservative messaging. I'm so sick of wokeness ruining Hollywood. That is the best explanation for the dip in quality. Charlie apparently doesn't care about making a good show anymore, he just wants to virtue signal to the people he sees at Hollywood parties.
    Season 6 has werewolves, demons, and a bunch of **** that has nothing to do with the core technological theme of the show. It literally is a different show. Why did they even bother calling this Black Mirror? I know Amazon literally has racial quotas and ideological guidelines for the shows that they create, I am guessing Netflix has something similar. How much control did Charlie have over his own creation?    … Expand

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

    Black Mirror is a sad reflection of today's streaming entertainment. Gone are the mind bending and nightmarish technological tales, replaced sadly with overlong hollow shells packed with progressive messaging and little else. This season is bad, and as a fan of the the first two seasons, that's a real shame - 2 stars, because the concept for episode one was interesting.

    Hats off to the creators.
    Watching this obvious propaganda made me feel like
    I`m actually in an episode of Black Mirror.

    It's another nail in the coffin.
    Only episode 3 was worth watching yet very predictable, the 1 and 4 (female directed, it's a big hint) are the worst of all the seasons, no surprises.

    The most predictable and boring stories. They all could have been cut in half. I mean some of these are as long as a film but have a fraction of the substance necessary for an engaging story.. just cliched and contrite.

    The ideas were fresh 12 years ago. Now they're a bit tired and stale. Nothing dangerous here now.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Mediocre. Confronto a tutte le altre stagioni non c'è ombra di Black mirror, 4 scarabocchi pseudo horror super prevedibili lunghi e noiosi nulla a confronto delle vecchie stagioni. Si salva solo la prima puntata.… Expand

    I have ideas why, but it's still baffling to me, that they destroyed the concept of Black Mirror so thoroughly with this season.

    It's boring, too long, predictable, unrealistic, cowardly, stupid and many more negative adjectives. In one episode a women is literally turning into a werewolf, what the actual? If you're a fan of the early seasons, you can keep this unwatched.

    Downgrade of quality and the themes, only quite good episodes 1 and 3 have old "Black Mirror" vibe. I felt like I was watching a completely different anthology, a weak horror series. Episode 2 is bad beyond imagination in every aspect. Episode 4: cheap, generic horror, has nothing to do with "Black Mirror". Episode 5: seriously?!? Summary: A weak season benefiting from a well-known brand.Downgrade of quality and the themes, only quite good episodes 1 and 3 have old "Black Mirror" vibe.

    While the new collection isn’t perfect – Black Mirror still has a tendency to get knocked off course by an overload of Hollywood presence – this is an assured return to form: a much tastier geek-noir pick’n’mix.

    Black Mirror’s new stories are more concerned with changing the show’s reputation as a speculative science-fiction series than with actually critiquing technology.

    There are familiar (maybe even obvious) themes here: data harvesting, terrifying small print, surveillance by Big Brother. Yet “Joan is Awful” doesn’t succumb to predictable tropes, retaining a winking sense of humour. [The score is the average of the reviews for the five episodes.]
