Black Mirror

[LNS]

Never heard of it but I'll check it out. I've always liked the Twilight Zone and the Outer Limits (the remakes of both series, too).

I'll check it out. I started watching Making a Murderer today at work. It was meh so far.

Dig the show.

Looking forward to more...

I will watch. I've been looking for a new show. I'm almost done with Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (is it gay to say that you find that show very funny. Jon Hamm in the show, is amazing).

Great British show on Netflix. It's like a modern twilight zone with an emphasis on future technology. I found the premise of the first episode to be a bit silly and over the top, but every episode I've seen after that has been awesome. Great writing and acting and super creepy. Or you can just stick to watching Marvel crap like a lame ass.

This sounds pretty bad ass, I'm gonna hit it up this wknd.

A friend recommended this to me, and I watched the first episode and had the same reaction you did, so I didn't watch any others. Perhaps I'll give it another go.

I'd give it another shot. I dig the following two episodes.

Do you actually like the old school Twilight Zone(I love it)? Don't want to invest time in starting a new show if it's garbage. Tell me about an episode without giving any spoilers. Please and thanks.

Yes I like the original twilight zones. Although I haven't seen them since I was a kid.

This show is only 3 episodes per season. Not that big an investment.

So far my least favorite episodes are season 1 episode 1, and season 2 episode 3. Not bad, but every other episode has been excellent imo.

Hard to explain without spoilers, but I'll try not give away anything major:

This is just the first 5 minutes of an episode:

Spoiler:

Woman wakes up. Her head hurts and she has no idea what's going on. Her wrists look somewhat slit and there's pills all over the floor around her. She keeps getting these shocks and seeing images. One of the images, a symbol, keeps popping up on a nearby tv. She looks out the window. In all the neighbors houses she sees people standing at their windows with their phones out filming her. She's panicking. Doesn't know where she is or what's going on. Doesn't even remember who she is. She goes outside, everyone is staring and filming her. She's screaming for help and asks what's going on. Some neighbors come out and film her from the sidewalk. Nobody will respond to her. Just stare and film.

A car pulls up at the end of the street. She waits cautiously to see if it's someone that might help her. A big man gets out wearing a creepy Halloween mask holding a big ass shotgun. He aims it at her and starts sprinting towards her. She runs away. He chases through the crowds of people smiling and filming on the sidewalk.....

Another episode I liked a lot was set in a future in which most people have implants behind their ears that connect to their eyes and brains and record their whole life. Gives everyone perfect memory. They can always put their memories on any nearby tv to re-watch or show others.

This kind of reminds me of an Outer Limits episode where everyone is connected to the Net, but it's called "The Stream" you can download pretty much anything in an instant. Do pretty much anything but in the end the Stream ends up making people do weird stuff and kill them by overloading their minds.

I watched the first episode. I thought it could've gone in a better direction, but it was okay.

Imo give it at least one more episode. The first episode and the 6th episode are the only ones I didn't like.

I will.
