Black Mirror Season 4 Review

Black Mirror for anyone unfamiliar with the show is a series of disconnected stories revolving around the new technology and the unforeseen negative effects it can leave on humanity. The show is essentially bleak and uplifting at the same time. Some stories will have a positive outcome, while others will be so dark and could be compared with some Twilight Zone episodes. Every episode in every season is a standalone, while episodes are not as long as the movies, you can watch this show in a movie format. I'd say 90% of all episodes are definitely great and worth the watch.

Season 4 is as interesting as ever and all 6 episodes will keep you engaged. Some of the tech introduced in the new season feels very close with the present times which makes them very eerie and tense. What this show does very well is connecting the human aspect and making a viewer attached to it's characters by creating an emotional connections with them, so any dark and unforeseen tragic event will have a big impact on anyone watching. This show makes you think and question what future might bring. There is no doubt that technology is improving people's lives, but there are also some unexpected negatives it can bring, Black Mirror will take you into that negative zone. 9/10

It's the first I've heard of it, but sounds like it would be very interesting, especially the correlation to present times. I have been off of tv for awhile but I think I'll check out this series. Thanks for the heads-up.

Hell yeah, this is one of the most interesting TV shows that came out in recent years.

Definitely sounds like something worth watching. Looking it up now lol

Is there any spoilers in the post before I read it? :) I didn't watched 4th season yet, so...

For sure in Top 3 series for me.

Don't worry, no spoilers :)

Oh, I agree with you in total. One of the best concept TV show of all time.

If I can recommend some of the other from my list:

The Missing - also in my Top 3, definitely worth watching.

Dark - New German Netflix TV show. If you like Stranger Things than this is right step for you, even more twisted than ST.

Mindhunter - maybe it will be weird in the beginning but at the end you just want more. I would say more psychological True Detective.

Writing this down, I’m on my winter school break, gonna give it a shot, it’s now or never :D Thanx for recommendation!! :)

I need to start with the Haindmaid's Tale soon :)

Oh yeah, The Handmaid’s Tale... I’m on hollywood classics now - Splendor in the Grass, Love Story, Gaslight...Catching up :)

This series is on my to-watch list. Still haven't got around to it due to other commitments. But I have series 1 lined up ready to go. And I know its short series so it shouldn't be such an effort.

Now that I have read your review I am more eager to get started. It's good to read a positive endorsement like this.

It is hard to get to a point to start watching this show, but once you start the end result after seeing every episode is, Black Mirror is damn good.

Can't wait to see the new season, I wanted to watch it with my brother but he's taking his time -.- I loved the previous seasons.
As I said in another topic a couple days ago, what I love about Black Mirror is how they took the core concept behind Sci-Fi short stories from the golden age and re-applied it to the present with a new type of communication (TV show). Their ability to write good Sci-Fi inspired to the present is amazing.

wow the show look extremely thrilling one have to watch it for sure 😉

its look very interesting one , i haven't watch it after the story you had described and the the concept its make me so curious about it...

Wow. I gotta check it out. Sounds kinda scary. But I love the Twilight Zone so..I will give it three episodes to reel me in. :)

Thinking we have similar taste in media. I don't think there is a bad episode of Black Mirror... the Christmas special might be my favorite dystopian sci fi on television ....ever? If black mirror is your bag two easy recommendations are Dark on netflix and og hyper real time travel best sci fi movie ever, period .... Primer.

And don't watch Primer late at night the first time. Best served with a cup of coffee. = )
