So, sit down… relax… & Netflix and actually Chill.Explosions, kidnappings, beatings, bloody stabbings, severed limbs, murders, etc. If there's one show I am asked to recommend for the New Year weekend, Black Mirror would be the one. I was on the edge of my seat for much of the episode… just the way I like it! The episode is fast-paced with heart-in-the-mouth moments which makes for a thrilling watch. And this make-believe universe is where the majority of the events of the episode transpire. The story arc is split between the real world and a fictional game universe inspired by 'Space Fleet”', a 'Star Trek'-esque TV show. The USS Callister revolves around a Robert Daly, CTO of an advanced-game making company, Infinity. I do not wish to give anything away by writing in-depth about the episode. It is not a review as much as it is a sneak peek. I thought it fit to review the first episode: The USS Callister. it comprises of six episodes: each of them, mind-blowing. And that’s what makes it compelling.Ĭoming back to the latest season.
Often, the themes are dark, drawing inspiration from our real world. Every episode is different from the other and each of them deals with a different set of people, advanced (and fictional) technologies and the ramifications of their misuse. What sets Black Mirror apart from other tv-shows is not only its content but also the way it is structured. “ It centers on dark and satirical themes that examine modern society, particularly with regard to the unanticipated consequences of new technologies.” Now, for those who haven’t ever heard of this show, here’s what Wikipedia has to say about it: The best year-end gift came in the form of the fourth season of the hit anthology series, Black Mirror.
