What to Know

Critics Consensus

An exquisite corpse of good ideas never fully formed, "Rachel, Jack and Ashley, Too" struggles to sew its many concepts together -- what does work can largely be attributed to Miley Cyrus' wholly committed and compelling performance.

Tim Brinkhof Observer 06/11/2019
Rachel, Jack and Ashley Too, may tell its story through a slightly different voice, but the story it imparts undoubtedly belongs in the cruel world of Black Mirror, and represents the best of Brooker's talent as a writer. Go to Full Review
Troy Patterson The New Yorker 06/06/2019
"Rachel, Jack and Ashley Too," starring Miley Cyrus, tinkers with the tropes of tween tales, talking back to the genre on its own terms. Go to Full Review
Spencer Kornhaber The Atlantic 06/06/2019
The show's take on the genre is also oddly stale, relying on a textbook dichotomy between "pop" and "rock." Go to Full Review
Zach Kram The Ringer 07/18/2023
Whereas the best Black Mirror episodes zoom all the way in on one issue or one manifestation of technology, “Rachel, Jack and Ashley Too” tries to tackle way too much at once. Go to Full Review
Dan Stubbs NME (New Musical Express) 07/14/2021
No, wait - the real genius in this episode is the songs. Even the most hardened fan would be pushed to notice, but all of Ashley O's songs are Nine Inch Nails songs reworked with perky production and upbeat lyrics... Go to Full Review
Huw Saunders Cultured Vultures 08/22/2019
7.5/10
A straightforward tale of good and evil, buoyed by the speculative technology and some excellent performances. Go to Full Review
