such a great premise & execution- it took me a little bit to get into but once everything came together, it was fantastic

had some interesting moments but i just didn't buy the concept at all, & felt like a cheap attempt to recapture the magic of san junipero. emma corrin acted circles around pretty much everyone else involved.

a fun watch week to week but overall horribly aimless & honestly lazy. fully held up by the incredible actors, not so much the storytelling

an incredibly solid premise that grew more inconsistent, ridiculous, & cringey with every subsequent season, & yet i still loved it all- it made me laugh, & a majority of the performances were stellar

a breath of fresh air. new life for the franchise in every regard. phenomenal.

i really really loved this, especially at a time when i was just thinking a lot of the recent nature shows/movies had been feeling the same. this is a bit goofy & cheesy (in a good way) but not at all overly so, & ended on a more hopeful note- instead of just showing how fucked we are, we see the ta

i would watch 25 more episodes of this but i also could not bear another second. outstanding, infuriating, terrifying, heartfelt, shocking, devastating, and technically well done on top of everything else.

a few stale moments & some questionable decisions, but overall i really did love it. the trio is a dream & i really hope it gets renewed!

one of (if not the) best prejuries of all times followed by a devastatingly disappointing jury phase. izzy was queen of the live feeds but completely shafted by the edit, so cirie & felicia carried the edited show on their backs.

a masterpiece. carla gugino is a fucking force of nature. flanagan is one of the best creators working right now. if i say any more i'll end up writing an essay. just spectacular.

isn't it crazy that almost every character in this show is an all-time great? any scene with mary never fails to make me want to scream for the entire duration. no one is more cruel and selfish than a man who thinks he's righteous. matt's post-rock-hit sequence is AMAZING. just so artful and ama

rewatch thoughts: just a stellar pilot. obviously a lot of very necessary exposition is given, but i love that nothing ever feels hand-holdy or rushed or, like, insecure? i'm not sure exactly how to describe it, but after the first scene, no one feels like they're going out of their way to explain

the best of the 3 episodes this season that were decidedly not classic black mirror. will have no problem if they continue down this path if they keep up this quality
