Bit messy this one, and (to me) didn't feel like they did the truly horrifying aspects of the concept enough justice.
Still, leagues ahead of all the other shit out there.

“sheep programing” indeed. I bet you actually sit there filling your face with cheetos and bullshit more vapid than half the people you'd accuse of being sheeple, or whatever.
Do you sport a fedora, Yurimon? I bet you do.
A fedora with tinfoil inner lining.
- got jokes. you might as well be racist in how your automated label mechanism kicks inyurimon
- you mean how you labeled it sheep programming? because that's just your mechanism kicking in and nothing moremonospaced

Black Mirror is such a well worked out series. Full of great ideas. If you were to watch it just for the ideas alone, it's a great show. The Christmas Special I thought was amazing. John Hamm was such a great character.

Maybe Brooker was having a go at the way women generally get attached to their mobile devices and that they probably fantasize about they boyfriend's pampering to all their needs. Women are weird!!
- I think he was obliquely criticizing both genders, I didin't detect any re or unconstructed misogyny.mikotondria3

i'm a big andrew scott fan so my first watch was "smithereens," and while most reviews call it the weakest of the bunch, i found it an intriguingly sublime departure from black mirror's tradition of hitting-you-over-the-head writing.
though the story in and of itself is simple and perhaps a bit drawn out, the layers of despair involved are quite staggering - the private vs state power, the mid-tier executive infighting over "exposure," the both hypocritical and deluded founder, to the average person's inability to deal with life-altering despair during life-changing times. capping it all off with a rather nonchalant dismissal of violence and it's a really stellar episode, perhaps because it dares to break the mold the show had cast itself in and dare to show the boredom of what has become everyday horror.

just watched waldo ep tonight..
it was good, but sadly i have to agree, this season has been trending downward.. and when a series is only 3 episodes long and they are already putting out mediocre stuff.. something will give eventually.its sad.. season one was amazing.
i like your old stuff better than their new stuff..
- I thought this series was pretty good, the Waldo one was perhaps the weakest of the lot though. Overall I liked the conceptqTime

Didn't see this ending myself (and I saw a lot of endings) but what an amazing Easter egg... So much attention to detail and impressive how quickly it was uncovered.

Thought it was great...loved the part when the crowd got violent and Waldo was egging them on.
