Do the same story, just have nobody be married. The second episode was stupid, drawn out, and not really even in the same realm as most other black mirror episodes, it's not even semi-futuristic, in fact it could be a history piece at this point. So your complaints are "too dark" and "not sci-fi"? Sounds Charlie Brooker to me, Black Mirror on form. Nope, never thought an episode of Black mirror was too dark, heck it's in the name. I don't like shows about cheating or that make it out to be ok etc, but that is a personal thing, maybe some people would like the first episode. It certainly wasn't too dark, it was just ....unenjoyable to watch for me. The second episode was just boring, predictable, and not sci-fi/futeristic based. It was, actually, almost retro black mirror, like if black mirror was made 20 years ago or something. The third episode touched on common black mirror themes, but did so in a very tired, over done manner, I'm not even gonna start listing how many times that has been done to death, but funnily enough one of them is in another netflix original series that is coming out this month...Jessica Jones.....so yeah, it had the theme going, but used it in a way that was not new, and again, was extremely predictable. Not one of the episodes made me think, made me emotional, made me interested. I could have skipped them all, and honestly I had to go onto IMBD and see the descriptions of the second 2 episodes to remember them enough to comment on....and I watched them 2 days ago lol. --- We are 4 oreos from Heaven!!!! <cite>wolfy42 posted [p:922918685] in Black Mirr...
