Anybody watching, I know it’s been out for a while but what’s people’s thoughts on how it’s portrays how technology effecting our lives. Watched Ep 3 from Season 3 last night, scary!!

Some I agree have been shite. But some are brilliant. A throw back to tales of the unexpected.

I watched the first one and wondered all the way through how anyone could find the idea plausible. I fell asleep during the second one. I might give it another go but it would want to improve.

Seasons 2 & 3 are much better. Try season 2.

I was thinking of doing that as there doesn't seem to be a connection between the different episodes. Am I correct about that?

Yes you are right, each episode is a stand alone program no connection.

Excellent, I'll give it a lash at the weekend perhaps.

San Junipero is one of the most beautiful bits of storytelling. I laugh and cry and my heart fills up with joy, every time.

I just watched that last night and had tears in my eyes at the end, truly a great story and well told. Maybe that’s where all our futures lie.

Some stuff is implausible, but hey wasn't it David Cameron that had a pig scandal come out years after the first episode aired originally

I was hoping Charlie Brooker would take over writing Dr Who!! Black Mirror was a Great series and a great writer.

I think its a very good show! And pretty much most of the concepts they do are very plausible these days!!

The very first Ep with the prime minister is gas!

I thought some of the better ones were the Augmented reality one and the Xmas special.

Only realised the other day that "Black Mirror" is referring to your phone screen!

I can't agree that the first episode is plausible at all.

Not so much the first one no haha!

But alot of the technological episodes are. A lot of that technology already exits.

I need to go back and start again. I fell asleep to early in the second one to make a judgement. It was the exercise bikes that did it!
