None of this makes sense. So I may watch it
Do it.

They're all standalone episodes that take place in a dystopian present or future, focusing on the unintended consequences of new technology. The majority of the episodes are quite grim. The scariest part is how close our reality is to the show.

Wtf is wrong with you? One of the best British shows of all time. It's an anthology series so all the episodes are standalone works. You could start with this season if you wanted to.

Do it.
i had recommended the show, specifically "nosedive" to my mother a year ago. my cousin mustve gotten her to watch it a couple days ago and she was so excited to tell me

some episodes are true gems

I'm a big fan of the show and just finished binging the last 3 episodes. All I can say about the last one is....
monkey needs a hug :(

I was wondering when the new season comes out, thanks.
I hope this season is a bit darker and an episode or two longer.
A bit darker? Have you not seen the previous seasons? I've rarely walked away feeling cheery.

The Maxine Peake one was boring AF but that 3rd one was tits.
I'm confused..........I watched the 3rd episode of season 4 last night and thought it was fantastic. I just googled Maxine Peake to see who she was and she is the leading actor of that 3rd episode. Is she in another episode or something, because your message is confusing.

Great show. Of course some episodes are better than others but I love that they don't have to be watched in sequential order. My favorite all time show was The Twilight Zone, and this is pretty much that reborn.

I hear ya. But some of it is a bit campy. I'm not saying it has to be really graphic, though I wouldn't mind that, but I think there is some room to get a bit darker. But to be fair I think that could be achieved in the editing room, not the writing room per se.

1 - uss callister: good
2 - arkangel: eh
3 - crocodile: couldnt pay attention
4 - hang the dj: crecendod. I really liked this one. I like these types the best
5 - metalhead: intense and entertaining, but I'd prefer a season full of 1s and 4s
6 - black museum: can't rememebr if I fell asleep or saw the end. Based on the content, I must have been close to the end. Good episode

I'd rank them 4, 1/6, 2/3
1 - uss callister: loved it
2 - arkangel: made me uncomfortable due to how possible
3 - crocodile: good, watch it again K @Kaladin Stormblessed
4 - hang the dj: agreed, was very good. I like the ones about the weird sci fi stories
5 - metalhead: agreed. Loved the filming and bringing in the tech, but I like the mindfucks more
6 - black museum: like a really uncomfortable horror movie. Liked it once, not sure I'd watch it again

So this show follows no linking storyline at all? I just put on season 4 episode 1.

Can I jump to season 2 episode 7 next and not have issues?
