    • Productive contribution.

    • I like it, but I rarely discuss it with others. I think its become pop culture now cuz of Netflix but when it first dropped, it really blew me away.DRIFTMONKEY
    • Black Mirror is good. What I find weird is everyone's eagerness to declare themselves a Netflix zombie.yuekit
    • @dmay, same here, not one bit interested
      ********
    • I thought it was a moviedrgs
    • started one time, had to interrupt never started again. want to see it. can't find the time.

    • Not seen it. My realm of thinking - it all seems ideas borrowed from other peoplemugwart
    • @mugwart all creative work is iterations on previous work. What matters is quality. BM is very, very good.jagara
    • ^ you are correct but it depends on how its taken and used. Never felt the pull to watch this. Not saying it's good / nor badmugwart
    • the first two 'seasons' are only 3 episodes each, so it's not a major commitment, and the episodes aren't connected eithermonospaced
    • Definitely worth watching, mugwart.monospaced
    • Start with White Bear. It's a good ride. . While the latest choose-you-own-endin... was conceptually interesting, it underwhelmed. Switched over to Maniac.zombiewoof
    • I stopped watching after Nosedive, the episode where Bryce Dallas freaks out over social media rating... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Maaku
    • I can’t think of other tv shows which play with ideas in the way black mirror does. Not saying it always works, but it does ask a lot of questionsIanbolton
    • A bit hit and miss but almost always makes me think. It's a bit like The Twilight Zone but written for the near future.mort_
