Featuring stand-alone dramas -- sharp, suspenseful, satirical tales that explore techno-paranoia -- "Black Mirror" is a contemporary reworking of "The Twilight Zone" with stories that tap into the collective unease about the modern world. Each story features its own cast of unique characters, including stars like Bryce Dallas Howard ("The Help"), Alice Eve, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Tom Cullen and Jerome Flynn ("Game of Thrones"). Joe Wright, Dan Trachtenberg, and James Watkins are among the featured directors.

I'm glad Black Mirror continues to exist, but I spent a lot of these new episodes feeling like the Cherry Jones character from "Nosedive," longing for the way things used to be. Go to Full Review Emily St. James Vox 11/15/2017
4/5
The show is still sometimes excellent, but often forgets what made the first two seasons so great. Go to Full Review Benjamin Lee Guardian 11/15/2017
Brooker's show retains its status as a marvel, hinting at darker and greater things to come. Go to Full Review Fiona Flynn entertainment.ie 01/02/2020
Overall, once more Black Mirror has failed to disappoint and made it worth the two-year wait for a new season. Go to Full Review Juan Luis Caviaro Espinof 08/20/2019
'Black Mirror' is special. It deserves our time. And it is not for science fiction fans, far from it. It is for anyone who wants stories with different and surprising approaches. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Matt Fowler IGN Movies 02/07/2019
8.6/10
Not knowing what you're going to get is part of the thrill with Black Mirror - a show whose stories contain the loose connective tissue of how technology and society may be a toxic relationship. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Kenzie C @RT92402763 Oct 4 Some of the episodes are a bit stretched out and overhyped on social media; for example, the high ratings one. Yet I believe all of them serve a deeper purpose beyond surface level storytelling that depicts the dangers of humanity. Shut Up and Dance is probably my favourite one yet I haven’t watched all the series episodes quite yet. Would definitely recommend though. See more Milton I @RT33955695 Mar 30 Don't get five stars because of San Junipero. Overrated See more Joshua S @RT65493161 06/30/2024 Episode 4 was awful. The other were ok but this one was atrocious. See more Benjamin H @RT54005248 04/09/2024 I think this batch of stories is the most intriguing, richly painted and daring of all the three i've watched thus far. It is sometimes far fetching or overwhelming, but for the most part it feels warranted. See more matthew w @Matthew1972 01/03/2024 Yes some episodes miss the mark, but episode 3 Shut Up And Dance from season 3 & episode 4 White Christmas from season 2 are just wow. Black Mirror looks into a dystopian future with a innovative look at anything from AI, social media to implantation. The four stars are for all six seasons See more Nick S @NickSpecter 10/01/2023 Another excellent season with some interesting concepts. 2 of which were, in my opinion, among the series best (Nosedive and San Junipero which, I can't help but believe, inspired the comedy show "Upload"). The rest of the season is pretty damn good too. See more Read all reviews
