Honestly I stopped it in the middle just to double check that it was in fact Black Mirror that I was watching because it was just so not up to par.

I don’t know that I’d agree that Be Right Back is a “happy” ending, although I will agree it is when compared to the episode that followed it.
Honestly I say start with the second episode of first series (Fifteen Million Merits) and go from there, returning to National Anthem at some point. To me San Junipero works best after you’ve watched all of the episodes that come before it.
I suspect that I like National Anthem more than most. I think that it has interesting things to say and placing it in the here and now, not some either vaguely dystopian or outright dystopian world, helps it work. I have to give it props for actually walking over the line, when other shows would’ve found a way to…
And now the regularity of people being milkshake ducked.
I love Shut Up and Dance. I don’t get the hate for it.
I cannot fault you the top 2 picks. They’re the two that I will just put on when I want something exceptional, but don’t feel like investing into a whole series. I love how San Junipero plays with the darkness of every episode that comes before it and has you waiting for the shoe that never comes to drop. That trick…
The Babadook becoming a gay icon is still one of my favorite things of the past few years.
I’m all for choosing to give support to LGBTQ+ businesses, especially during Pride, but as Willett points out the fact that a company that’s made how much money by selling a heteronormative image of what beer drinking entails has decided to not have just the traditional rainbow flag, but the flags of transgender pride,…
If we’re just looking in the realm of breakfast, then bacon would win.
I did watch it. I agree that spending maybe about 10 more minutes of them as kids/teens would’ve better served the story. It also didnt help that the resolution was on par with how a Hallmark movie would resolve something and that’s not a compliment.
Such a lovely man, truly we are lucky for him to be our dear leader. He is in no way a racist at all.
My heart broke, even as I knew it was the right and correct ending.
I was able to watch about half of the first episode this morning before I went to work. It’s utterly heartbreaking to see these 5 boys join the larger group of boys and know what the future holds for them, just how much that split second decision would define their lives to this day. Also striking is just how much the…
I love how he’s able to sell that he’s both annoyed by Scott and still wants to be friends. I liked the whole thing with being awed by the close-up magic.
I get so bored by the chaebol falling for a lower class girl dramas. Give me the ones that have anything but that...
Agreed, the number of times that I would salivate over the food in Hannibal was disconcerting to say the least.
Mizumono is a top 5 ever TV episode for me and I’ve watched a lot of TV.
I STILL can’t wrap my head around the fact that Hannibal lasted a whole season, let alone 3 on one of the major networks. It was the show that actually lived up to the “you won’t believe this isn’t on cable TV” hype that The Following tried to convince everyone of.
Nothing would make me happier, but I wonder at this point if it would even be possible to do. Friel has aged in the decade since (how it’s been a decade since the show ended is beyond me) and while you could make the case that we don’t know what happens to dead people who are permanently brought back in the PD…
